Up this morn, The silence sweet, Thinking of the day. So much to do, My coffee smooth, Planning out the way. Devotion first, Then head to church , Handshakes and hugs abound. The music great, The message strong, A baptism to be found. Lunch is next, With family to sup, A run back home to … Continue reading A Typical Sunday
Poetry
Grace
I am human, I make mistakes, I sin most everyday. So thankful for, His amazing grace, there is no other way. On the cross, He died for us, His suffering immense. I know not one, Who could take His place, To bear the whole world's sin. Much less the sin, Of just one man, For … Continue reading Grace
Open the Heart
Hearing ears that fail to listen, Open eyes that do not see. Yet we wonder why, we cannot be set free. Crying out "we want more", full of self-entitlement. Never truly satisfied, living with much covetousness. Looking 'round the world, many living poor. Not a bite to eat, sleeping on the floor. Shoes upon our … Continue reading Open the Heart

Depending on the song, and if the distance far. To stop and truly listen, a message may be found. As some are deep with meaning, the … Continue reading Listen to the Music

A bed for us to sleep in, and food we could prepare. Mistakes that I had made, led us to this place. So thankful for the Lord, and … Continue reading The Shelter
Sunday Christian
We say we want You here today, You know we are not ready. We think we know You as our Lord, yet our lives unsteady. The road is wide the gate narrow, on this Heavenly path. Most do not comprehend, the severeness of You're wrath. Our sinful hearts lean towards creation, the Creator pushed aside. … Continue reading Sunday Christian
Graciously Unworthy
A visit to the beach, looking out to sea. Water, water everywhere, no end the eye can see. Beneath the moving water, an ocean full of life. Just as the world around us, Many people, so much strife. Watching as the waves come in. the sun is going down. Footprints in the sand, too numerous … Continue reading Graciously Unworthy
