Desert Bloom
I am overwhelmed with joy in the Lord my God! For he has dressed me with the clothing of salvation and draped me in a robe of righteousness. I am like a bridegroom dressed for his wedding or a bride with her jewels. Isaiah 61:10 Have you discovered the restful and sweet love of God the Father…

A Reasoned Faith
This is the crisis we’re in: God-light streamed into the world, but men and women everywhere ran for the darkness. They went for the darkness because they were not really interested in pleasing God. Everyone who makes a practice of doing evil, addicted to denial and illusion, hates God-light and won’t come near it, fearing…

Wisdom’s Voyage
Who can measure the wealth and wisdom and knowledge of God? Who can understand his decisions or explain what he does? Has anyone known the thoughts of the Lord or given him advice? Has anyone loaned something to the Lord that must be repaid? Romans 11:33-35 So how can it be that sometimes no means…

No More Tears (Revised)
I am posting a revised version of the poem ‘No More Tears’ as a dedication to my Aunt Linda who passed away last Thursday evening after a horrible battle with lung cancer that had spread to her brain. The burden of the flesh is no longer hers and she feels no pain or suffering only unimaginable joy. As we continue to shed…

Marks of Love
See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands. Isaiah 49:16 Our names inscribed on His pierced hands,Christ died to make a way.His precious blood our only plea,Tomorrow and today.

Things Not Seen
But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified…
