Smiling on the outside, a broken heart within. With busy hands she fills her days, and holds her feelings in. She prays for God to fix the mess, continuously she makes. Responding to the man she loves, with God's loving grace. Marriage never easy, It has its ups and downs. Our human nature intereferes, causing … Continue reading Hurt with a Smile

Aging Love
Helplessly she lives each day, her husband by her side. Her thoughts of how she used to play, In memories she resides. Her legs no longer hold her, dependant on her care.

Pharisees Among Us
Feeling selfish, to be with You. Trivialities on earth, my thoughts askew. Unkind things, I hear them say. While telling us, You are the way. Judgement abundant, unknown the facts. Claiming the victim, yet we see the acts. Fooling the world, they seem to do. You know their hearts, we know it's true. Judgement comes, … Continue reading Pharisees Among Us
