Arrogance
January 15, 2022 I shy away from ones who boast,The arrogance I dislike most.The selfishness that grows with prideCan etch away the good inside. I much prefer humilityIn those with great ability,Who honor God and lift Him up,Seek after Him … Continue reading
Love and Grace
January 14, 2022 It’s not yet light. The house is still.Lord guide my hand. Let Your words spillUpon the page. Lord help me writeWith verses pleasing in Your sight. Help me convey, with words that flow,Your love inside, Lord let … Continue reading
In His Image
January 13, 2022 We’re each one imprinted, the image of God,Not just a creature, an empty facade.Inside He implanted a vacuum, a spaceLonging for love and His marvelous grace. In all of creation mankind’s set apart,Body and soul mixed with … Continue reading

Reminiscing

Words and Thoughts
December 29, 2021 My thoughts once remained in obscurityUntil I decided that they should be free.I opened the cage and they learned how to fly,To glide on their wings as they soar through the sky. They love to take flight, … Continue reading
Life Uncertain
December 29, 2021 Life is uncertain not always the same.It’s constantly changing and hard to explain.It’s fruitless to dwell on how things might have been,To dwell on what’s happened, the past way back then. The present and future we mold, … Continue reading
