Hope is in planting
a seed to grow.
Hope is in believing
God will help,
mistakes will be forgiven.
Hope is in wishing
for good things up ahead.
Hope is in waiting
for what’s hidden.
Hope is in anticipating
there is goodness.
Hope is holding on
to confidence
to truth.
Hope is in discovering
there is joy in journeys challenging.
Hope is in beginning
each day new.
Hope is in...

Before the Thorns
There they are
Beneath a tree
She and he
He and she
Gazes long
Eyes so wide
Filled with love
Deep inside
Hands caress
A cheek
A blush
Sweet words voiced
Whispers hushed
Breezes tickle
Hair so wild
Nose is buried
Lips, they smile
Teasing words
Make her giggle
In his arms
Snuggly wiggles
Lifts her chin
Sees his lips
Gently fall
On hers to kiss
Warm and soft
Sweetness grows
Love in bloom
As a rose
“We know how much God loves us, and we have put...

Vision
In the valley,
a river flows.
In the valley,
creation is shown.
In the valley,
is where
I become
fully loved and known.
I imagine my time there,
waiting...
I imagine the sun there,
fading...
falling away,
beyond
the long day,
upon a mountain top
for a moment,
it lays.
In glorious color
it bathes.
In awe and worship
I praise
my Creator
whose work
is displayed
as silently
I wait.
I look
into His face...
I look
into His love...
From...
a river flows.
In the valley,
creation is shown.
In the valley,
is where
I become
fully loved and known.
I imagine my time there,
waiting...
I imagine the sun there,
fading...
falling away,
beyond
the long day,
upon a mountain top
for a moment,
it lays.
In glorious color

In awe and worship

I look
into His love...

Treasure
As I wandered
Through the day
Thinking thoughts
Along the way
Gazed at trees
Bright displays
Contrast to this
Day in gray
Same sun
Softens ice
Hardens clay
Same sun
Gives us light
Fades away
Same sun
Warms our faces
Burns in pain
Wind can change
Steal a flame
Steal the heat
Bring the rain
A wisp of smoke
Distorts the way
Window closed
Shattered pane
Same tree
Blocks the light
Brings the shade
Same strength
Holds one up
Falls...

Be Still
Be still and know this moment
Be still and seek His face
Be still and listen for His voice
Be still and contemplate
Be still and know the Lord is God
Exalt His holy name
Be still and let Him fight for you
In weakness feel His strength
Be still and hear the silence
Find hope inside of pain
Be still and wait for guidance
Prepare your soul for change
Be still in calm and quiet
Like babe at mother’s breast

Prayer For Peace
Faithful is Your love, Oh God
Neverending grace
Faithful by my side, Oh God
Shine upon my face
My tears, they stream a river bed
My heart feels split in half
My life, it flows into Your hands
My journey is Your plan
Hold me in Your arms, Oh God
Soothe me with Your grace
Hold me to Your heart, Oh God
Look upon my face
This world is broken, bruised, and hurt
Your heart is filled with love
Your life, a blessing to the earth
My trust, in You above
Make me humble to your plan
Help me when I fail ...

Verdure
You extend Your
forever hands
further into
this canyon bend;
...a murmur
sweeps walled leather - toughened
gulfs...
You mend the end
forever hands
further into
this canyon bend;
...a murmur
sweeps walled leather - toughened
gulfs...
You mend the end

Mercy
God your mercy poured out on us
yet we are not worthy
you wash our feet and cleanse us ( 1 john 13:5 )
through your son, our Lord Jesus
you cleanse us of our sin ( 1 John 1:17)
Such a celebration to serve a loving God
that should be enough to keep me humble
Still, I bow down and pray for your mercy
for myself, family and even thine enemies
who of us walks with no sin? ( 1 John 1:8 - 2 Corinthians 5:21)
I for one will try to judge none but myself (Mathew 7:1)
according to your will
I must must learn to love more
not just to some...

jesus loves you
Death
text me this morning
and asked if I was ready to go?
Heaven
text me later that morning
and said, 'jesus loves you.'
Instead
of slitting my wrists,
I perfumed them.

Sufficient Grace
Sufficient Grace
Adversity can create a warrior.
This life long trail was hand picked,
Just for you. To give you a brave resilient heart.
To build character forged with courage.
You quietly walk through this world.
As if you’re not a force to be reckoned with.
As if you haven’t battled against unseen evil.
With angels by your side, as a child.
As if, The Lords hand wasn’t upon your life
from before your first breath.
With humbleness draped over, your powerful spirit.
With the kind of God given authority to trample upon serpents....

Be aware, and alert!
Oh that the amount of wars we suffer
our faith and hope in God our buffer
"oh greater is he, who is in us
than he in this world" so it's thus (1 John 4:4)
Put on Gods armor and be prepared
for in the end no one is sprared
The judgement and glory of Gods wrath
look to, Jesus Christ, our only path
now with the weight of sin encumbered
even the enemy, knows his days are numbered
God is in heaven, our impenetrable fort
Yet on earth we see despair ,though our time is short
no time to waste pick up Gods armor
