| Be Not Afraid Be not afraid to take my hand My angel of the night My foot holds strong, my steps are sure My grips forever tight. If you shall fall, I'll lift you up And kiss your tears away. I'll guide you when the path is rough Your light when skies are gray. When fears in you come rising Like the swelling of the sea And the pain of life is trying, You may borrow strength from me. For to see you sad my dearest daughter Is something I can't take. And if your smile fades away My heart will surely break. So fear not of tomorrow dear, For the rain will soon subside. And when the light of love shines through You will find me by your side. |
| My Sister My sister means so much to me Always my friend, always will be She's always there when I need to be heard Usually listens and never says a word She'll give me advice, her point of view But never puts me down when I don't follow through I love you sis as you should know My thoughts are with you wherever you go Remember the good times, keep them in mind I love you so much sis, you�re one of a kind So when you travel day after day Remember I'm with you every mile of the way I love you sis, this is written from my heart As long as we live, we shall never part |
| Not My Own You made me in Your image, created me for You So now, my Lord, I ask you, what is it I must do? You tell me and I'll do it, Your work is my command I long to be your servant, before you I now stand Broken I come before you, Lord, ready to do your will My purpose is to live for you, to know you, and be still So cover me in your perfect love, my thirst for you is true Nothing will ever fill me nearly as much as you In the humblest of offerings I fall on my knees before you Singing my praise of your great love, My Father, I adore you I kneel in your presence, in awe of your glory, seeking your holy face I am so blessed by your mercy, Oh God, and by your incredible grace I want to worship you even in moments of pain, or grief, or strife Fill me with Yourself till I overflow, my life's yours for the price you paid I lay it all down for you in thanks for the sacrifice you made Take me now and shape me into who I need to be Give me strength and help me live the life you've planned for me. |
| Dear Friends & Family, These are just a few of the more than hundreds of poems that I have written over the years. In fact, these are some of the ones that I have written just in the last few weeks since moving to North Dakota. I hope you enjoy them and find as much comfort in them as I have. "Not My Own," was written after I had a dream about a conversation I had with Jesus about my homesickness. "Be Not Afraid," was God's response to me in the same dream. These were written on the same day. "My Sister" is written for my sister, Katie Shevokas, who has stood by my side in everything I've ever done. She has been a HUGE support to me and loves me for who I am, not what I do or say. She is also one of my best friends. I love her more than I could ever describe! Thanks, Katie, for everything! Love, Kim |
