Another Lesson!

For all the silly things I do in this life— Things that make me feel foolish or stupid— You offer Your graceful arms Like a mom to a small child. You comfort me. You remind me of Your eternal perspective and infinite wisdom. If I could just remember to ask You, Maybe I wouldn’t make […]

The Call

Forsake the way of sinful men Who beckon you to follow them They claim to have the truth, but know Their “truthâ€? is just another show.
