A place for refreshment
For the weary soul.

One day
God’s voice spoke,
And the morning stars sang.
The sons of God shouted for joy!

The Tree Of Life
Tree
Of Life
Nourishes
Branches extend
To reach the nations
With leaves of healing
Planted beside the River
Of Life in Heaven’s Paradise
Bearing twelve fruits for Overcomers
Who will dwell in the New Jerusalem
Providing supernatural provision
As they eat eternally from its abundant supply
Observe then, and believe this wonderful truth
The Tree of Life
Can be for you
Accept Christ and
Live eternally

A Rebellious House
Dwelling in the midst
Of closed eyes, ears, and minds
Rebellious house
Shuttered ears are deaf
To the truth knocking
Closed eyes can’t see the truth
Through shuttered windows
Mutinous minds existing
Behind hostility’s doors
Choka

A Remembrance
Today
Lying in my path
A reminder of You
Twig cross created by the wind’s breath
Speaks loudly
Cinquain
Yesterday as I went out to get my mail it was windy and raining so I was walking with my hood up and head down, when I noticed what looked like a tiny beautiful cross lying in a pool of water on the blacktop. It was fashioned of two light colored twigs that apparently were blown by the wind to end up in that position. The way the light hit it it almost appeared to look golden. It stopped me in my tracks that’s for sure! As I pulled out my phone to snap a picture I thanked God for sending me this reminder on the day before Palm Sunday!
They “Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.” John 12:13 KJV
POSSIBLE
God is:
Promising a good future. It’s
Obtainable and
Securable, if you are
Susceptible and ready to be
Imaginable! Will it be a
Breeze? No, more
Likely it will take hard work. It won’t be
Easy, but it is possible to achieve.
ACROSTIC
Think positive!
With God all things are Possible! (Matthew 19:26)
Again
I worried
And wondered although
God said don’t
Syllable Lune
Sound familiar?
God says not to worry yet again I find myself doing so.
God says not to wonder about the future yet I often do that too.
Why do I do that?
He’s shown me time and time again that He’s trustworthy, that He’ll always be there for me, that He loves me and cares for me, and wants to heal me and give me an abundant blessed life, yet when a new problem arises I somehow find myself lapsing back into worry and wonder.
Ah, “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak” said Jesus (Matthew 26:41)
Forgive me God.
I love You and I am so happy that you love me and are patient with me.
…“Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief” Mark 9:24
Unclad
We smiled, chittering and chattering
As daylight filled with bright sunshine
Spilled upon us walking sprightly.
In the distance a lion roared
But the sound did not reach
Our quiescent ears
Dulled by sleep.
Our guard down,
The lion
Strikes!
Caught
Off guard
We scramble
To stand and fight
The enemy attack.
Unprepared for battle,
Head and heart vulnerable
To fleshly fear and worldly anger,
We attempt to vanquish our beastly foe
Unprotected. We cry out for God to help us!

Wind of the Spirit
Waiting for the wind
To fulfill my only purpose
Patiently I stand still

“The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:8
Works Of Art
At
First glance
I may seem
Ordinary
Yet if you will stop
To take a closer look
You may be quite surprised
You’ll see I that am a unique
Creation of God’s workmanship even though
At first glance I may seem ordinary.
Dectina Refrain
Just as these beautiful metal horse sculptures pictured above are unique creations of art, created by Dixie Jewett of Dayton,OR thru her love of horses and her skill in welding, so are we all works of art, created and designed by God.
Each of us are unique. Masterpieces of our Creator who formed us in love, to reflect and shine His workmanship to the world around us.
Ephesians 2:10 Amplified Bible (AMP)
For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].
