Ring True
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of souls and of spirit, of joints and or marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 One step back, then forward by two,A returning long overdue,In Jesus Christ, all things made new,May…

Spirit of Life
The Holy Spirit will give you life that comes from Christ Jesus and will set you free from sin and death. Romans 8:2 It’s His love that sets me free,Christ’s rich mercy will abound,With a splendor most profound,Binding to eternity. I once was blind, now I see,Calming peace of Comfort’s sound,It’s His love that sets…

Precious Even In Death
The LORD cares deeply when his loved ones die. Psalm 116:15 O merciful God, so full of mercy,Comfort is found in remembering Your love! So precious in Your sight,The departed are now held peacefully in Your arms.After a long, full life and a fierce battle till the end,This one has now seen Jesus face to face!Delivered…

Look to Jesus
Jesus then said, “I am the one who raises the dead to life! Everyone who has faith in me will live, even if they die.” John 11:25 The song of the ruthless is silenced,But righteousness gives voice.Look to Jesus and live,With all your heart rejoice! Christ came to do His Father’s will;He redeems and forgives.With all your…

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. His marks of passion show His love,With proof from history.Our living God, today He reins,Not just a memory. It is finished, our debts…

Time is Short
There is no man who has power over the spirit to retain the breath of life, neither has he power over the day of death; and there is no discharge in battle [against death], neither will wickedness deliver those who are its possessors and given to it. Ecclesiastes 8:8 Memento mori, as they say,Is future’s…

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…

I AM
I once questioned each step along the way,while longing to uncover paths of truth;thus pondering the meaning of my life,and venturing through ev’ry open door.For stolen water’s sweet with secret bread,as if fondling the darkness for true light. Night as heavy as a feather is light,so desolate I felt destruction’s way.When nimbly kneading at Nietzche’s…
