Overwhelmed
Just too much to do
In deep waters
Near drowning
In need of a helping hand
To help me overcome
Shadorma
…when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. Psalm 61:2

Unexpected
And sudden delay.
Change of plans.
Disruption
Saves from a tragedy?
Unknown blessing from God?
Shadorma

Against the Odds
One can prevail
Two will be able to withstand
Three fold cord holds firm
Haiku
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. Eccl. 4:12

Sun kisses red roses
Trees dance in the morning breeze
Shadows of night flee

Field Flowers
Don’t worry, go forth
Dressed in His finery.
Flowers of the field
Clothed in His great splendor
Far greater than Solomon
Tanka
And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. Matthew 6:28-29
Treasures of the Heart
Moth and rust corrupt
Thieves break in and do steal
Treasures on earth
Surely decay and vanish
So dont be decieved
Lay up treasures in heaven
They’ll last eternally
For where your heart is focused
There your treasure shall be
Choka
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:19-21

In this troubled world

I keep looking up

I’m seeking to live
A life that shows forth joy
In all circumstances
Filled with the Christ’s fragrance
And the fruit of His Spirit
Tanka
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22,23
Job’s Question
Afraid?
What is “the thing”?
What is the “that” in you
Which is so big it causes such
Great Fear?
Wonder if someday it suddenly
Becomes real and comes?
What will you do?
Panic?
Or Pray?
What will you do?
Will you fight or just freeze?
Will you crumble in trepidation?
I know
What i would do because it’s come.
And I am trusting God
To remove it
From me.
Double Butterfly Cinquain
Job 3:25–“For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.”
