THE LORD HATH SAID

Ruby Harris — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 14:47:00 EST

His love is forever, eternal

Will always, continually, endure.

His Word is power in strongest form

God's promises are solid and sure.

STANDING IN THE STRENGTH OF GOD

Ruby Harris — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 21:22:00 EST

I stand in the strength of my Savior

When chaos is all I have found.

I stand in His strength  above all else

When my mind with anguish is bound.

THE SMELL OF VICTORY

Ruby Harris — Mon, 31 May 2010 05:20:00 EST

The smell of this rose is so sweet
Like the power of Victory over Defeat
God bless our soldiers who chose to stand
To spread the smell of victory over our land

FREEDOM FLIES OUR FLAG

Ruby Harris — Mon, 31 May 2010 05:00:00 EST

Thank God for our soldiers that took the load
Fighting to keep America on the right road
Seeing many a sunset and a waving flag
The coming darkness causing spirit to sag
Wondering what would come at dawn's early light
Hoping the flag would be their first sight
The enemy loves to prey on fear in the dark
Wondering if at daybreak they will still embark
On our mission to make sure Old Glory still waves
Over our country and not just over graves

HOW DO WE WORSHIP OUR FATHER GOD?

Ruby Harris — Sun, 30 May 2010 17:26:00 EST

I heard Joel Osteen say that when you simply tell someone what God has done for you in any situation, that you are glorifying and worshiping Him.  Therefore, I wrote the ways that I felt we could worship Him in real worship

FLAGS SPEAK TO US

Ruby Harris — Sun, 30 May 2010 05:26:00 EST

We have lost a lot of Soldiers in our town
Just look at the flags flying all around
They are reminders of life already gone
But, the waving flags are their voices cheering us on

NEED FOR SOLDIERS

Ruby Harris — Sat, 29 May 2010 09:36:00 EST

People still believe in America
They salute and carry the flag with pride
They stand firm in backing our soldiers
They honor those who have died

I WANT TO BE REMEMBERED

Ruby Harris — Fri, 28 May 2010 11:29:00 EST

I want to be remembered
for being an American son
not so much for where I went
for what little I have done

NEW LIFE FROM THE CROSS

Ruby Harris — Sun, 23 May 2010 06:00:00 EST

When you meet Jesus at the cross, A new life will arise from its place of leaving all sin and walking away with Jesus.  It is a wonderful life well worth the acceptance.

WATERED WITH GOD'S CARE

Ruby Harris — Sat, 22 May 2010 06:53:00 EST

In everything we face, we can see how God uses it to help us to help others.

If we accomplish what He wants in our sharing with others, we will see an abundant harvest grown with God's care.

ON THE VERGE

Ruby Harris — Tue, 04 May 2010 06:13:00 EST

Yesterday I was on the verge of sixteen
It was what I was driven for.

It seemed it was forever in coming

I was obsessed with being a movie star.

ON THOSE DAYS

Ruby Harris — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 11:59:00 EST

Sometimes we make things hard on ourselves because we don't listen to the voice of God.  The world gets so loud and pushes our emotional buttons to the point that God can't get our attention.  We have to open up and be listening to Him.

HOW LONG AFTER WORSHIP

Ruby Harris — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 18:45:00 EST

How long after we leave worship
Do we forget to remember the word we heard?
How long does it take to fall into our pattern
After mulling over what came from God�s Word?

WHAT IS REAL LOVE?

Ruby Harris — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 10:00:00 EST

Do you have a clue what real love is?

The kind that humans live to find.

Do you really know what it means

To love with your body, soul and mind?

A VALENTINE GIFT TO GOD

Ruby Harris — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 08:00:00 EST

For Valentine's Day today

My Heavenly Father gave to me

A whole new day to live

And eyes with which to see

BEING BOLD FOR CHRIST

Ruby Harris — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 18:50:00 EST

The world is loud and boisterous when it wants to applaud something or someone.  The noise can be deafening.  But, they want us to whisper about Christ and salvation.  What appears wrong in this situation.  We should be shouting from the roof tops the message of Christ and Salvation.

WHISPERS FROM HEAVEN

Ruby Harris — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 08:24:00 EST

This is a poem from 2002 when God was teaching me about how close He is to His children.  He really does whisper from Heaven.

NOTHINGNESS DAYS

Ruby Harris — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 06:51:00 EST

My sleep was so messed up last night.  First of all I had something on my mind that concerned me.  Someone was supposed to be at my house this morning to work off a debt for a lap top computer.  I knew he wouldn't show up for some reason.  But, I got up early and waited and waited and waited.  Nothingness sat in.  Disappointment over not getting something done that I really wanted consumed my day. I just couldn't get things together like I normally do.  I did get some things done but nothing major.  I am glad that God doesn't have reactions to my failures with this kind of feeling.  I sure do appreciate His grace being given to me in the worst of times. 

A SUNDAY VISIT WITH GOD

Ruby Harris — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 19:50:00 EST

Today was one of those wonderful services where God moved in and met needs of a lot of hurting people.  Several had lost family and one couple a baby and many were just over burdened.  The Holy Spirit began to minister and brought a wonderful time of refreshing to us all. The Holy Spirit did the sermon.

I WANT HIM TO GUIDE MY EVERY STEP

Ruby Harris — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 06:06:00 EST

It's a process to learn to trust God.  I know this for I have lived my life learning how to trust God.   In every situation that we face we have a choice.  Do we trust Him, or do we not?  I don't want any part of my life not to have Him in it and in control.  I want to be able to trust Him in everything I face.  I sure don't want to go through anything without HIM.

THE POWERFUL BREATH OF GOD

Ruby Harris — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 08:13:00 EST

In those times when what you see is against what you believe and stand for, it's time to stand on God's Word.  That is what we are doing with JR and Sandra Craft.  The world says he will die.  We say he will live.  God has done so much in his life to let it waste away now.  We are speaking life to him in the name of Jesus.  This is the times that God's power comes flooding us and giving us strength to stand.  He is so awesome.

WHAT TO DO WITH THOUGHTS OF VENGANCE

Ruby Harris — Mon, 25 May 2009 20:35:00 EST

As Pastor Houston preached today on what to do when you are grieving, I was reminded over and over of grievous things God has brought me through.  When I went through chemo and radiation for breast cancer, I never once asked why.  I just wanted it out and got busy on accomplishing that.

God was good enough to me to allow that to happen and I want my life to glorify Him.  I didn't even think about anything worse than that happening to me.  Several things have, though.  Emotional stuff.  But, God has been so faithful to remind me over and over what His Word says.  It is working for me and it will work for you.  Remember, you do not want evil in control of any part of your life.

DREAMING ON HOPE ETERNAL

Ruby Harris — Thu, 14 May 2009 22:30:00 EST

I have had a couple of weeks that my heart has felt pain that I don't like and don't want to feel.  People that I thought had worked through problems with me that affect us so seem to have come up with new ones.   Living a double standard is the culprit.  Being one way with me and another with their friends at my expense is cruel and produces pain that can really kick you in the gut. 

God has promised to prepare places in the presence of our enemies.  Only He knows the enemies and what to feed us. He is not surprised by any of it and He knows how to calm the storm.  I am not sure I should post this, but I know for sure I am not the only one living it.  What is so bad, it may get worse before it gets better.  I know God's grace and power is sufficient.

Heart Pain

Ruby Harris — Mon, 11 May 2009 22:52:00 EST

I have had my share of heart pain in the past couple of weeks.   It involves one of my children who happens to be a grown woman. The great thing God is doing for me in this is my husband is standing for me. It is amazing how God can use one thing to change another one.

I can't imagine how my God and Savior deal with rejection and put downs when they are so full of love and mine is nothing compared to what they see and hear.  I am so thankful that He is with me and talks to me and gives me wisdom and helps me when I feel like giving up.
