Remind Me

Life can turn out crazy, I know for a fact

I get so distracted I forget where I’m at

Between my business meetings and keeping up the yard

Three little kids who need me and fixing up the car

I might take you for granted, but you mean so much to me

So before I have to go, please remind me

Remind me how much you love me

Remind me how much you care

Remind me you’re thinking of me

And how you’ll always be there

I know we made a promise

But I forget so easily

So before I have to go

Please remind me

Life can sure get messy, with many ups and downs

But each day is a blessing, when I have you around

To have me and to hold me, to chase my fears away

To love me through the highs and lows of each ordinary day

I might take you for granted, but you mean so much to me

So before I have to go, please remind me

Remind me how much you love me

Remind me how much you care

Remind me you’re thinking of me

And how you’ll always be there

I know we made a promise

But I forget so easily

So before I have to go

Please remind me

Life is never guaranteed, we don’t know where it ends

So until the good Lord calls me, to come back home again

Remind me how much you love me

Remind me how much you care

Remind me you’re thinking of me

And how you’ll always be there

I know we made a promise

But I forget so easily

So before I have to go

Please remind me

Transcendence of Tranquility

The quiet speaks to me

His silent breath distills the shadows

Inhale reveals the marvels of the universe

Exhales expose the falsity of doubt and fear

The stillness moves me

Each breath nudges me closer to the inner calm of serenity

Love and beauty envelop the tranquility of transcendence I call home

Perfection pursues me

Surrounded on every side by the joy 

And acceptance of the humanity I have

The person I am

The one I was created to be

Bathed in light

Developed in wonder

Delighting in my freedom and surrender

I breathe Him in and my frailties melt away

I breathe again

The beginning has no end
