The Two Gates

The Two Gates
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

There are two gates
For you to choose
Enter the right gate
Or you stand to lose

One has a narrow gate
The other wide and broad
Much is to be at stake
A price you can't afford

Enter through the narrow gate
Before it is too late
Life begins and peace is great
For God is at this gate

In His Hold

In His Hold
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

God will sow
And grow you
Then He'll prune
And shake you

He will mold
And make you
In the cold
He'll break you

Through the fire
He'll bring you
To His desire
He'll shape you

And behold
He takes you
In His hold
To love you

Be Strong and Merry

Gives Grace daily

Tests Of Life

Tests Of Life
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Life may throw at you
A whole lot of tests
But God will make you
Win and be the best

A whole lot of tests
But God will bring you
To enter His rest

God Heals The Wounds

Though life may bring
Some bitter wounds
Don't let the sting
Remain as gloom

Pain beneath the shell

To spring forth blossoms
From deep within
From top to bottom
The wounds made clean

So the rubble
Forms a lovely piece

Small Step Of Faith

Small Step Of Faith

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

If you can't 

Take a leap of faith

Then just take 

A small step of faith

At what's right ahead 

Faith as tiny

As a mustard seed 

Can be mighty 

When God is the lead

God Decides

God Decides
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Though your tears fall
As the heavy downpour
Though your heart sore
From the pain and sorrow

Though evil lurking
At the corner
Though the path you take
Getting tougher

But awaits behind
The thick dark clouds
Great power to bind
All fear and doubts

The pain and sorrows
Redefined
The victory score
Multiplies

For your Savior
Of great valor
Mighty and majestic
Is your loving Father

Who created
Universe and all
And He decides
What rises and falls

God has in store
So we come knocking
At the King's door

The blessings fall
Day by day
To help us score

To spread the love
Of the Lord Most High

In His loving arms
Living in Grace
Away from all harm

Exalting His Name
Throughout the earth
For He took our shame
And gave rebirth

In Him, We Win

We're head not tail

Though we break
In Him we heal
He shall make
Stronger than steel

Though we're weak
He is strong
In Him we win
And sing His song

If you're going
Way too fast
You're not going
To reach fast

What to do
Never leave you
Lost or blue

Of the precious True Word

Let hearts rejoice
Making the choice
To follow the Voice
Of the One True God

The path truly rough
But the victory is God's
So continue on the path

Good Ending

Good Ending
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

To have a good start
Always a desired dream
But no matter what
Do not just sleep on the dream

The Lord has indeed given
The desired dream
Act upon and be driven
And do not lose steam

To have a good start
Would be a good thing
But even if it was not
The aim is a good ending

So take the step
And go in faith
Aim for the best
Do what it takes

The Lord will show
The way to go
So trust His plan
And take His Hand
