Hello, Orion, brightly shining in the winter night. As time moves on, your stars aligning give my heart delight. I still declare when seeing you that there is always hope, For you’re prepared, you’ve set your view with all encompassed scope. The hunter’s bow is ever ready to supply the food you need. The warrior […]
Brilliant Iris
I saw the sun the other morning Peeking through a crevasse in the clouds Like a brilliant iris of light, (Too bright to see the color) Staring through the vast, dark grey eyelids. Even when the sun rose to its hidden place Behind the upper mass of moisture, The brightness of that spot drew my […]
Wind and Fire
Upon reflection, I must disagree with you. The Spirit still comes with wind and fire To those who need His mighty touch, Whether we are babes or long in the faith. He is the I AM after all is said and done… Great in power, mighty in deed, Overwhelmingly here when He is manifestly present. I will […]
River Richly Flowing
Life is a river richly flowing, Freely teeming with people, nations, and happenings, All mingled in Your Spirit’s purposes. Past, present, future…mesh together because Nothing limits Your hand at work. You are our life. You give us our very existence. You pour through every moment, every molecule With the power of Your love— Sparkling with […]
This Time Around 12/23/2011
The year seems to fly by so fast anymore. I wish sometimes that I could just yank on the reigns, Stop the wild horses from dragging me along… For me, savoring each moment takes extra effort of will. Before I know it, I’ve missed More moments than I’ve noticed. The minutes, hours, and days, sneak […]
…Coming Soon!!!
December 21, 2011…Coming Soon!!! The Healing King… a book of my poetry (and some of my prose) collected between 2000 and 2011. I’m just waiting on the proofreading now, so hopefully it will be available for purchase within the next month or so. I’ll post more details when that happens.
Holy Is The LORD Almighty
Angel feathers falling from the very throne of God From the holy heavens bringing wonder from above. There the living creatures worship where no man has stood Crying, “Holy. Holy. Holy is the LORD…â€? Golden glory cloud of dust hangs weighty in the air— Holy Spirit manifests His love for all to see. So, the […]
Facets of Fall
How does fall manage to look so pretty Even when the rain permeates the day? I just noticed it this morning— All the brilliant colors in the sunlight Take on a sort of royal austerity When gray sky reigns in the atmosphere. No matter how drab the day feels The colors remind me that time […]
Threshing Floor
You sift the wheat from the chaff, Separate the barley from the hull, Till all that remains is Your harvest. You call us all to let go of the stuff, the fluff, The unnecessary things and habits we cling to Till all that remains is Your perfect work Forming us to Your character So that […]
Morning Sky
Fingers of the morning sun pierce the clouds, Like Your hand extended over the landscape, Hovering above us all as sweet reminder of Your goodness, Lord… Your mercy, Lord… Your continual grace that allows us to Begin each new day with Your breath of life. The deeply blue-gray clouds outlined With golden filaments of light […]
