Of
Wife And Mother
ROBIN, Age 12
REV. L. R. NEAL
BOBBY, Age 11
ROBIN, BOBBY AND I, TOGETHER WE SHALL CONTINUE
LOVING
FAMILY DEVOTION
SUNDAY SCHOOL
WORSHIP AT CHURCH
IN PRAYER
VISITING THE SICK
IN SCHOOL
We shall continue Loving with all of the Heart, Our neighbors as ourselves, but putting first God! We love our enemies and none do we hate; Even those despitefully use us by blocking the gate!
Daily, we will read the Bible, the word of God, Food for the hungry soul and medicine for the heart. We will read the Upper Room every single day, For spiritual renewal along the rugged way!
To Sunday School each Sunday, we will surely go, To learn from the Holy Scripture that we should know. We shall study to improve so we wont be ashame, To give vent to the Holy Spirit in Jesus precious Name!
We shall worship God in Spirit and also in the truth, And remember our Creator in the days of our youth! We shall praise the Lord together in Christian Fellowship, With the saints of the Almighty with spiritual grip
We shall always pray and we will never faint, For God will do for us the things that we cant! "Ask and it shall ge given" is what the Master said; He supplies all of our needs and gives us daily bread!
We shall keep on visiting the sick as we move about. From sick room to hospital, in faith and never doubt! We seek to bring cheer to those shut-in With words of kindness and blessings, Amen.
We shall continue in school to strengthen the mind, To help us make adjustment to the changing of the time! We will rise early in the morning to catch the bus. Always on time, for going to school is a must!
PREPARATION FOR FUTURE
PLAY AND RECREATION
GODS FIRST
OUR GOAL
PREACHING THE GOSPEL
GRATITUDE TO FRIENDS
We shall prepare ourselves for a future day To serve humanity along the way. We shall stick to the task of reading good books. From the library shelves of running brooks!
"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." So we will have some fun mixed with joy! We shall exercise our bodies by moving around. Just to revive our spirit and rest our mind!
We shall put God first in whatever we try to do. While seeking His guidance to carry us through! He is first in the day time and first at night; We shall walk in His steps and follow THE LIGHT!
In the Name of the Almighty, we set our goal, And we shall strive to reach it with heart and soul! What awaits us in the future, we can not tell; But with the God of Mercy on our side, we cant fail!
We shall continue to preach the gospel, good news To a sinful, dying world, while on Mission cruise! The Bible is our Hand-book with pages open wide To guide us on our journey over to the other side!
Thanks to the many friends for standing by our side, In words, deeds and kindness which helps us over the tide! Your deeds of kindness sustained us to bear our burden today, And motivate us to continue on our Heaven-bound way.
