Two People Who Fell In Love

Two People Who Fell In Love
Written by Justina Braun

There once was a boy who dreamed of being a hermit, 
At least that's what he claimed in the school's yearbook.
After a short while, a certain girl's heart turned it.
He didn't give his dream a second thought, caz he was hooked.

One fine night, he asked her to join him cruising on his bike,
And they both spent the night enjoying the moment.
She noticed being around her was something he liked,
And finally they both, for their feelings came to an acknowledgement.

At first her heart was not easily won... 
He had to prove to her that he was worthy of her love,
And it didn't take long for her doubts to be gone.
Cause she found out he was sent to her from above.

As you can imagine, their love for each other grew,
But their love didn't go with out struggles; it got tested time and time again.
They both learned to trust that the other would stay true,
And to always be ready for the other to be the helping hand!


Lord, Why Not Me?

Lord, Why Not Me??
Written by Justina Braun

Lord, why not me?
I have been waiting and searching to see,
Where in this life You want me to be.
And what in this world You want of me.

Lord, why not me?
I'm fighting hard to keep standing.
If it wasn't for You, I would not be.
And help me to see the future You are planning.

Lord, why not me?
I've been patiently waiting and praying,
For You to open my heart to the one, who's for me,
Before my hair will be graying.

Lord, why not me?
I pray on bended knees for the time,
When You in glory I will see.
Yet, is longing for you such a crime?

Lord, why not me?
What is the reason, that I don't have clarity?
Is there something in my life that You want me to see?
For I want to have clarity in You for eternity. 

What I Love About You

What I Love About You
Written by Justina Braun
Love the way you and your family work together.
You've won my respect for the way you live for the future.
Love the way you have a way with Children, there's always laughter.
You've become a great leader; everyone's attention you capture.

Love the way you go to God for all your decisions.
Once you've taken on responsibilities, you make sure you get them done.
Love the way you watch out for those who aren't popular, not caring about your reputation.
You seem to have a love for others which isn't easily gone.

I see that God is first in your life; you seek your answers by God whose giver of life.
I see you've learned from mistakes in the past.
Living life is not always easy, and life isn't without pain and strife.
Keep living your life open to learning, and don't hide behind a mask.

Love the way you play your instruments, it's very encouraging.
When you play, you display peace and joy on your face.
Love the positive attitude you have, even when sometimes people around you are discouraging.
And also love the way you're always ready to witness to others of God's grace.

Lord, We Lift Carolyn, Our Friend To You

Lord, We Lift Carolyn, Our Friend To You
Written by Lina & Justina Braun

Lord, we lift our friend to you,
She is in great pain and needs Your embrace.
Lord we lift her up to You,
She will only make it through Your grace.

We fear we won't have the words she needs to hear,
We pray for Your wisdom O God, through her many questions why.
Help us show through the love we give and shedding of our tears,
That You have everything in control and You have the answers why.

Complicated and grieving circumstances have clouded her life.
Lord, we lift her up into Your hands,
To carry her through her grieving loss and strife,
And Lord, we ask that in time, her heart You'll mend.

 Lord, we lift our best friend Carolyn up to You,
And we know only Your love will heal the hole in her heart.
May your arms of love and comfort surround her and keep her near You,
 As Your peace fills her and reveals who You are.

Her heart longs to hold him in her arms once more,
To see the smiling face and hear his singing voice throughout the day.
To once more brighten her day as she hears his laughter coming through the door,
And to tell him, I love you as he goes on his way.

Seeing her in so much pain, is more then we can take.
Lord, give her strength to take one day at a time in You.
Help her to see You have him by Your side and in a better place.
Lord, we send this prayer up to you!

Friends

Friends
Written by Justina Braun

Friends are treasures,
Which can't be measured.
To be a friend is our command,
To walk together hand in hand.



Through all the hard times we face,
One great encouragement is that we’ll 
 always have God’s grace.
So once again, my great friend,
Thanks for always lending a helping hand.

You've been there for it all,
Even when it was just a call.
Thanks, my dear Friend,
For being there to the end. 

Time With You

Time With You
Written by Justina Braun

It's been a joy to have gotten to know you,
And your friendship I'll always treasure.
To your family and friends you stay true,
Which is love given without measure.

You're always ready to give a helping hand and a smile,
And when it comes to children, for them you'll always find time.
Your positive attitude makes everything you do seem worthwhile.
This makes life's decision easier for lifetime.

I work not at a fancy place, but at my dad's store.
I love working for him, caz I see him as my dear friend.
The Lord  is calling me for service and open are many doors,
So my life could change in a heartbeat, it all depends.

Life is unfair and full of pain,
Yet you've shown me there is reason for laughter.
Once Jesus Christ comes, we have everything to gain.
Life in eternity in heaven ever after.

Love

 Love
Written by Justina Braun

Love is more then just a spark,
It can't be carried in a cart.
 Two people is all it takes
For love to fly through the gates.

Love is much more then just a feeling,
Yet in books that's all you'll be reading.
True love lasts a life time,
Through fears, tears, and happiness of many kinds.

True love is seeing the sadness or laughter which hides behind a smile.
And always ready to walk the extra mile.
Love is honesty and trust put together,
And love lives on in our hearts forever.
