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 […]

Out With The Old Stuff
You confuse me. Some days you act so belligerent and angry. Then before I realize what’s happening, You treat me with civility and courtesy. It leaves my head spinning and My insides churning because I never know what to expect. I don’t understand you at all. I don’t think I ever will, if the […]
For Ryan and Shawna
You are astonishing, Lord! It amazes me to stand here As your hand slowly unfolds To reveal the tiny gift inside. The waiting isn’t over, but It seems as if Your plan is clear. My friends are rejoicing With some reserve as of yet. But life bundled up in a baby boy Just bounces around […]
