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].

A Tribute to Billy Graham
After a long time
As a good and faithful servant
His Lord said “Well done”
Senryu
Written I honor of Billy Graham’s entrance into the joy of his Lord today at the age of 99.
His lord said unto him,
Well done, good and faithful servant;
thou hast been faithful over a few things,
I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Matthew 25:21

When I read your word
I thought, and I turned my feet.
I made haste
To try to obey your commandments,
And walk in your ways each day.

But it is always worth it

Based on Revelation 6:2
I Believe
In the beginning God created
The heaven and the earth.
Although it is often debated,
In the beginning God created.
Is really not complicated,
It’s a truth of great worth.
In the beginning God created
The heaven and the earth
