Change

Interesting, Lord… The way You do things Never ceases to amaze me. So many “suddenliesâ€? recently In my life and those around me Teach me again that The waiting is always worth it. I never know when it will end (And it always seems endless), But then You turn my life inside out Or upside […]

Called and Chosen

It’s very obvious to all who know you— The stirring in your heart, The deep longing of your soul To win the lost. Holy Spirit moves and you respond With tearful intercession, With passionate desire To see all of us reaching out as you do. It’s a marvel to my being— This change in you […]

Waiting Game

I thought it was hard before… When I waited through weeks and months Of uncertainty and clouded vision, But this really has turned into an ordeal. I find I have to balance between Stagnation, contentment, and impatience. It’s difficult to understand how… To be content where I am without settling, To trust that God can […]

War

It’s time to take the hammer to the anvil. It’s time to put the metal in to forge. The fires are burning hotter than they’ve ever been, And war’s on the horizon with a surge. Your people, Lord, Your people need Messiah— Who came already saving us from sin. But now the whole world’s closing […]

Psalm 46:1,10

On this one, I discovered I could invert the background colors (and the conjunctions/prepositions) and it gave it a whole new look, but I can’t decided if I like the brown one or the blue one better. I kind of like them both about equally, really, so I thought I’d put both of them out […]

Holiness

According to the words of Christ, in letters printed red, We cannot call Him, “Lord,â€? unless we do what He has said. So heed His warning, build on rock, and stand strong in the flood, Or choose your own way and you’ll find you’ve built on sand instead. If we will take the narrow road […]
