    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

    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

    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].

  • The Lord of Peace

    The Lord of Peace

     Now may the Lord of peace Himself grant you His peace at all times and in every way [that peace and spiritual well-being that comes to those who walk with Him, regardless of life’s circumstances].

  • Fountain of Hope

    Fountain of Hope

    Now may God, the fountain of hope, fill you to overflowing with uncontainable joy and perfect peace as you trust in Him. And may the power of the Holy Spirit continually surround your life with His super-abundance until you radiate with hope!  Romans 15:13 Still springing from a fount of hope God’s love is pouring…

  • Still in His Hands

    Still in His Hands

    Rejoice not against me, O my enemy! When I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light to me. Micah 7:8 We can see the light. It seems reachable and yet darkness holds us down. Poetry type: Senyru

  • Prisoners of Sin

    Prisoners of Sin

    But the Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ, the Messiah. Galatians 3:22 We stay locked inside our cold and dreadful prisons while holding the keys. Poetry type: Senyru

  • Soiled Eyes

    Soiled Eyes

    But if your eye is bad [spiritually blind], your whole body will be full of darkness [devoid of God’s precepts]. So if the [very] light inside you [your inner self, your heart, your conscience] is darkness, how great and terrible is that darkness! Matthew 6:23 Closing our soiled eyes we still prefer the darkness. Envy claims our…

Lift up His name in honor. Sing Him a new song! He called you…

  • Wake Up Call

    Wake Up Call

    And now consider this. You know well the times you are living in. It is time for you to wake up and see what is right before your eyes: for salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. Romans 13:11 Sucked in by darkness, then enveloped in evil, so many are still asleep. Will you shine…

  • Firmly Fixed

    Firmly Fixed

    After you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace—who has called you into His eternal glory in Messiah—will Himself restore, support, strengthen, and establish you. 1 Peter 5:10 Our God of great and boundless grace has spoken, we are always invited to His table, where He heals and restores that which is…

  • Perfect Rest

    Perfect Rest

    I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. John 10:11 Intertwined are faith, trust, and peace, hand-in-hand they stroll, to bring rest, Your perfect rest, lifting my burdens. Arising with rhythms of grace, refreshment for my soul with mercy and salvation, together forevermore. Lamb of God, by your…
