BLESS THIS HOME
Bless this home, O Lord, we pray
Guard it safely night and day,
Bless the family living here
Bind them close with love and cheer.
Bless the food which is prepared
And each guest with whom it's shared.
Bless the children through the years
Guide them in their joys and tears.
Bless the mother -- tender, kind
And the father by her side
Bless their pure and faithful love
Making home like heaven above.
Bless this home, O Lord, we pray
Where we live and walk and play;
Bless us all that ever we
May live, O gracious Lord, with Thee.

As I have been going through old books and papers, AMISH COOKING found her way into my lap as I thumbed through the pages this poem hit a cord. This has been a very different and difficult last 7 days as so much tragedy engulfed our country.
Soothing poem.
Put your trust in Jesus and know that our God is bigger than all the problems in the world. Let Him be a BIG GOD to you. Let Him be bigger than our troubles.
God bless and may you have a peaceful HOME,
