~He Touches Me~

He Touches Me
God touches me in the garden
when I see a flower in bloom;
He touches me when I think of the beauty
awaiting in His "Upper Room".
When I pray I listen -
for answers I need so much;
That is when I can freely feel
the gentleness of His touch.
God touches me through a sunrise,
Colours changing every day;
He touches me so I watch, in awe,
at the beauty of each today.
The sun going down in the evening,
the moon and stars at night;
These are just a taste of Heaven
if I live my life by His Light.
God touches me with the quiet whispers
that come throughout the night;
He touches me that He listens and knows
my happiness and my fright.
The sense of calm He gives to me!
Lord, I am but one;
A lowly sinner praying you'll have me
In your cool garden beyond the sun.
God touches me with angel friends
that walk upon this land;
He touches me when He knows I need
someone to hold my hand.
Perhaps I'm one of Your angels, Lord,
answering another's need;
If so, I'm the one who is truly blessed
as my hungers You do feed.
God touches me through the children,
their lives so pure and sweet;
He touches me when I think of how
they sit trustingly 'round His feet.
Let me, Oh Lord, be childlike -
let my life be lived for Thee;
I long for the beauty of Your "Upper Room"
and the peace I will find there with Thee.

A special scripture from me to all of you: You Can Talk Directly To God

Matthew 7:7-11
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!" (NIV Bible)
