Joy of the Redeemed
The waste-land and the dry land will be glad. The desert will be full of joy and become like a rose. Isaiah 35:1 The Rose of Sharon lives, exquisite as can be. A symbol of true spring with such compelling truth that nature’s colors sing. The Rose of Sharon lives, emblazoned in the field. With…

Lily of the Valleys
I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. Song of Solomon 2:1 Delicious with a tender fragrance that draws me in with a sweet perfume. Dignified all white and blemish free sprouting hope in the darkest valley. Dazzlingly attractive to my soul subduing the bitterness of life. Delightful and infinitely pure presiding…

Adonai
Adonai our Lord, how excellent is Your Name over all the earth! Psalm 8:2 I love You Lord, my Adonai! You’ll always be my battle cry. You are the Way, the Truth, the Light and with Your love, my soul takes flight. I long to keep You in my sight, to not let go and hold on…

Still a Mystery
For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2 Corinthians 5:1 So where is heaven? I just can’t wait to find out! Still a mystery. Poetry type: Haiku

Inside the Tomb
Simon Peter entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there. The wrapping that had been on His head was not lying with the linen cloths but was folded up in a separate place by itself. John 20:6-7 His burial head cloth was folded up in the empty tomb like a neat and tidy napkin. Not stolen…

House of God
Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked. Psalm 84:10 Floating towards the heavenlies, one foot out the door. Searching for God’s glory now, always seeking more. Walking on the wings of wind,…

Oh Israel
Anyone who harms you harms my most precious possession. Zachariah 2:8 Oh Israel, remember you are: created and formed by Him, the apple of His eye, His first-born son, an unmovable rock, Yahweh’s own inheritance, His precious procession, the cradle of the Holy City Jerusalem, Jehovah’s elect, a light to the nations. Oh Israel! Attacked…

He Longs to Bless You
And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints…

Praise Your Holy Name
Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name. Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all his benefits—who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. Psalm 103:1-5…

Sweet Pardon
But those who wait for the LORD [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] Will gain new strength and renew their power; They will lift up their wings [and rise up close to God] like eagles [rising toward the sun]; They will run and not become weary, They will walk and not grow tired. Isaiah 40:31…

The Gambler
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? Mark 8:36 Rolling the dice and skating on thin ice. Blowing like a tumbleweed, tossed about in the wind, playing the face card just to take it on the chin. They say fortune favors the bold Are you willing…

Merely Dust
The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field; the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more. Psalm 103:15-16 Like grass, like flowers, our days are few and numbered, we are merely dust. Poetry type: Haiku

Entering Into Peace
But Jesus said to the woman, Your faith has saved you; go (enter) into peace [in freedom from all the distresses that are experienced as the result of sin]. Luke 7:50 Peace with God, peace with myself in this life and all eternity, at rest and entering into peace by faith. Amen. Poetry type: Oseh…
