Special Song

Pink Heart Sky
A sweet melody

In the quiet of the night

His song comes to me
His song comes to me

And night and day I shall sing of

His lovingkindness
His lovingkindness

That He commands in daytime

Is my sweet heartsong

 

Senryu Cascade

 

The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, And in the night His song shall be with me—Psalm 42:8 NKJV

Standing Ovation


This very place

Where I once stood

Weak and frightful

Wondering if I could

Now I stand

And all’s well and good

I’m feeling strong

As I hoped I would

This brings the thought

Had I not in Him stood

If life now

Would be this good

It would not

For its understood

In His great strength

Is my livelihood

Rhyme

I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.  (Jesus) John 15:5 

 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

Shepherding

Lamb
Venturing 

Out into the cold,

Adventure

Awaits as

Frozen twigs snap beneath my

Heavy booted feet. 

In the night

A weak little lamb

Strayed away

From the flock

Searching for greener pastures

Led by the enemy

My heart aches

But not from the cold

Rod in hand

I walk in

My Father’s Authority

Clinging to His Word

Fear tries to

Silently creep in

Doubt tries to

Overwhelm

But my feet are as hinds feet

And my mind is sure

Determined

To save the lost 

I move on

To overcome

My face set like flint

Lord God is my help

Wintery

Brisk air fills my lungs

As I cry out

At the sight

Rejoicefully I carry

My long lost sheep home!

Commit

    Narrow Path
    Commit thy way and works

    Unto the Lord, trust Him always.

    Walk the narrow path

    Haiku

    (Based on scriptures: Psalm 37:5, Proverbs 16:3, Matthew 7:14)

    Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Psalm 37:5

    Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established Proverbs 16:3

    Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew  7:14

    Lost in the Fog

    Fog, Names of God, Jesus
    Foggy Christmas Eve.

    Needing a Daystar and Guide

    To help find the Way.

    Who will be my guiding Light?

    Who’ll my Helper be,

    In this world of dark and fright?

    Lost in the darkness,

    Crying out to the King on high!

    He sends to earth His Prince of Peace.

    I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. –Jesus.       John 12:46
