Softening

You brought me through again. You always do, though I always doubt. I wish I could let them all go. Still, as many times as You prove faithful, It seems I turn out just as often faithless… I know that I KNOW You will come through every single time, As well as I’m aware How […]

Missing You

I don’t get to call you anymore For prayer, encouragement, or a laugh. I don’t get to see you anymore For a hug, a smile, or just to hang out. Time and death stole you away …And you so young (at least to me)! My heart hurt when I found out you were sick But […]

Morning Oblation

Each morning, Lord, I come over the hill and see The vista You’ve laid out for the day. Sometimes, it’s bright and sunny. Sometimes, it’s cloudy and overcast, But whatever it is, I am fascinated With the way You paint the landscape. The foggy mornings with a bit of sun, Peeking out between multi-colored clouds, […]
