Finally, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me – put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9

LORD, YOU HAVE SHOWN US THAT OUR LIVES ARE LIKE THE BLOOMING OF A ROSE...ONE PETAL AT A TIME.

EACH PETAL IS TIGHTLY WOUND AROUND THE NEXT IN PERFECT SYMMETRY. ONLY YOU, MASTER CREATOR, HAVE SET THE ORBIT OF IT'S UNFOLDING, AND ARE WORTHY OF THE OPEN FACE OF IT...YET YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO SHARE IT'S BEAUTY AS A TESTIMONY OF WHO YOU ARE.

ONE PETAL AT A TIME

THROUGH SUNSHINE AND THROUGH RAIN

ONE PETAL AT A TIME

TO GLORIFY YOUR NAME

TILL BUDDED FLOWER BE BLOOM

AND SENDS OFF SWEET PERFUME

ONE PETAL AT A TIME

MY HEART'S ONE SONG REFRAIN.................jOY Lackey
