Serious New Beginnings 

So often we struggle with decisions
We're going to do this or that
But before we know it the day is half gone
And we're back to where we where at
The devil loves to keep us...
In his tantilizing grip
And just when we decide that we want to change
He comes along and makes us slip

We're in need of God's intervention
And that should give us cause to pray
For if there are changes that we wish to employ
God will help us in the way
God is waiting for your faith to kick in
Do you want to change... seriously?!!!
Then bring your burdens to the Lord
For He alone holds the key

No one knows your heart any better
Than the true life giving One
And praise God we can know Him personally 
In the person hood of Christ the Son
Praise God there's a welcoming Father
Who is ready...willing...and able
When you're serious about new beginnings in your life
Then Hallelujah He's most capable!

Hallelujah what a Saviour !

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
