My Shepherd sweet Meets all my need, In pastures green, By quiet stream… Always. He heals my soul, Keeps my path whole, All for the sake Of His great name… Always. Though death draw near, I will not fear, For You’re my guide, Right by my side… Always. Your staff and rod Give strength, O […]

Posted on LinkedIn as a response to a recommendation to read
I’m a pretty avid reader (think 3-5 books a week), and I have been since I was five years old. The thing that trips me up about that is that I have found my time consumed by books that DON’T MATTER in the grand scheme of things, primarily because my favorite reading material is sci-fi/fantasy […]
On My Bed
I still my mind, when I can’t sleep, To seek my Lord’s embrace. He whispers with a voice so sweet, “Come, tell me all your care.” With grateful heart I throw it all Before His throne of grace. In answer to my Lover’s call, I give Him every prayer: The lonely hearts that I can […]
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 […]
Holy Is The LORD Almighty

Today I feel like sunshine Though it’s cold and wet and gray. Inside my soul I feel fine Though the storms of life hold sway. It is odd but I can stand fast Feeling rest and grace and peace Never minding as I sail past Other ships and harbors’ ease. For the way of strength […]
Feel the Season Changing
I can feel the season changing. Seems God’s always rearranging, And I wonder what new strange thing He is doing in my life. As I look towards tomorrow, I am hoping I that I will grow Moving forward as I follow Leaving worrying and strife. I have learned so much the hard way When I […]
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 […]
