A time
Of refreshing
Has come, wash off that
Weariness, shake away worry
And soar

Living Stones
Believers, we were
Not created to be pew sitters
We are Living Stones
Senryu
And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple. What’s more, you are his holy priests. Through the mediation of Jesus Christ, you offer spiritual sacrifices that please God. 1 Peter 2:5 NLT
Focus on Now
The past,
And the future.
The two thieves of our thoughts,
That rob today of its potential
For good.
Cinquain
Inspiration Is:
Inspiration is an impulse to try something new.
A revelation that your life’s work isn’t through.
A thought that stimulates an action,
Spurring you by stimulating traction.
Arousing a notion, increasing your might,
Inspiration awakens you in the night
To new possibilities.
It’s the brainchild of capabilities.
A spark that lights a flame,
It changes the same, reorders the game,
Illuminates the path to find your muse,
Unleashing creativity without excuse.
It may come as a flash, creating a rumble,
Causing the mundane to fall and crumble,
Awakening a vision, encouraging a dream,
Inflating your diminished self esteem.
Often it’s a whim, a hunch, an insight,
An idea that seems to just sound right.
A brainstorm that threatens your complicity,
Calling you revive an old ability.
It motivates you to flights of fancy,
Soaring to heights that may be chancy,
Yet elevating you to live in rife,
And experience an enthusiasm for life!

Abundance
Forgetting the past
Just living in the moment
Letting God carry
You to rise above and beyond
What you might ask or think

A Leaf in Summer
Out of place?
Out of season?
A misfit in my path?
Or a reminder sent by God?
A note
To awaken me to count the days,
Wasting not a moment?
“Redeem the time”
He says.

“Even in our best shape we are a brittle piece of mortality. Your life is a breath, don’t waste it.” —LeCrae
Inspire
In everything you do
Notice the little things
Smile at the world around you
Purposely speak positive
Inquire how others are
Recycle and share good deeds
Envelope yourself in life
Acrostic, Syllabic Verse
Greatly Surprised
Amazed
At all the wonder
In the world around me
I took time to look for it
And saw

BLOOM!
Be prolific
Live life abundantly
Overcome obstacles
Open yourself to opportunities
Magnify what you have and share it
Acrostic
If
If I didn’t know You
As I truly do
I could tell a lie
And not blink an eye
Worship an idol
With any title
Use your name in vain
Or kill like Cain
Even cheat and steal
Without any ideal
Chosing not to laud
Parents and You, God
If I didn’t know You
As I truly do
I would break all Ten
As do some men
Mankind unaware
Living without care
Never to repent
On a knee that’s bent
Who’ve never heard
The Covenant word
If them I don’t tell
I’m guilty as well
