I’m fighting
The urge to not care
To give up
Abandon
All the minutes given
Me to use today

O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; Psalm 63:1
New Year days in flight,
Flying away like fall leaves.
What is your vision?
Are your dreams anchored down,
To withstand the winds of time?
Tanka
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry Habakkuk 2:2-3
Well preserved
At His right hand
Pleasures eternal
Joy filled earthly life path
Is mine
Cinquain
(Poetry based on verses from Psalm 16)
Preserve me, O God:
for in You do I put my trust.
You will show me the path of life:
in Your presence is fulness of joy;
at Your right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Stand still and you will see
The salvation of the Lord
Don’t look back, look at Me
Stand still and you will see
Deliverence! Free you’ll be
From that chronic pursuing hoard
Stand still and you will see
The salvation of the Lord
Triolet
And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. Exodus 14:13
Christmas
Came in the night
God’s Light lit up the world
Darkness fled, the Son shone bright
For us
For us
Darkness fled, the Son shone bright
God’s Light lit up the world
Came in the night

In a lowly manger He lay
The Prince of Peace in goodwill came
The Mighty God upon the hay
In a lowly manger He lay
God came upon earth that day
Everlasting Father His name
In a lowly manger He lay
The Prince of Peace in goodwill came
Triolet
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 KJV

Holding on in faith even though the
Outlook seems grim, we cling to His
Promises, believing and walking in faith
Expectantly waiting without wavering
…for He who has promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23
Advent begins today and the First Week is focusing on HOPE.
Many kinds; numerous and varied:
Are God’s Grace and Wisdom shown
To beings in the heavenlies
And to those in the world
By us the church on earth
If we minister
To one another
With our
Gifts
Nonet
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
1 Peter 4:10
To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, Ephesians 3:10
(The photo is of one of my Tambourines that I use in praise and worship. I name all my Tambourines as I feel each instrument has a different purpose. This Tamborine I named “Manifold” because it reflects light in so many ways. I use it in worship to praise God for His Manifold Grace And Wisdom according to the scriptures 1 Peter 4:10 and Ephesians 3:10 )

Do you see the real me
Beneath the heavenly skies
Leaf covered path
On my daily walk I pass by and over so many fallen leaves, some noticeable, some not. Some freshly fallen are filled with beautiful colors while some are withered, lifeless, or hidden beneath others.
It causes me to think that they are like many of us in this world. Some of us are more noticeable than others, perhaps more lively, active or attractive while others might be older, less active, or perhaps feel insignificant or hidden because they are covered in worries or burdens.
Just like the many leaves they may wonder if anyone sees the real them.
But the truth is that God does.
He sees us all, for that is one of His names.
In Genesis 16:13 it says “So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, “You are ‘God who sees,’ because I have truly seen the one who looks after me.”
Hagar was a runaway who was alone in the wilderness with her child, she figured no one cared about her and she thought she and her son were going to die—alone….but God saw her and He spoke to her and helped her.
Matthew 10:29 says that not even a sparrow falls to the earth without God knowing about it, so I am thinking it must be the same for leaves and people too. He sees us all.
Everbody matters
For the clear truth is written
He’s “God who sees me”
