Ordinary day
Turned wondrous
Woman at the well
Visited by Truth
Living Water spoke
Messiah revealed
Woman’s life was changed

I love taking inspired journeys that the Holy Spirit leads me on either when I am alone or with someone else.
When’s the last time you went “digging for gold” within the pages of your bible?
My grandson and I often do that together and it always leads us to some exciting finds and increased knowledge.

My Life from A to Z
Alien
Because I was without
Christ, living in
Darkness
Ensnared, a
Foreigner to Israel, without
God and without
Hope, a gentile in
Israel and to all
Jews
Knowing not the
Love of God, believing in
Myths
Not knowing the truth
Of the wonderful
Promises of God
Questioning life’s purpose
Running from truth, a
Stranger to the covenant of Promise
Then, through God’s grace
Understanding the gospel brought me to
Victory in Christ, and I was a
Wanderer no more, a
Xenos no more, I belonged and was
Yoked to Christ forever in
Zion, the New Jerusalem.

#NaPoWriMo—Day 14–Off Prompt
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
Syllabic Verse/Rhyme
(Based on the Ten Commandments Of God)
Shine Your Light
Hesitating to share the truth
Fearing others harsh opinions
Keeping our thoughts hidden inside
Silencing our tongues
Invites darkness
Into our souls
Dimming life
Divine
Speak!
Nonet
Endless
Eternal life awaits
Everyone who will
Express true faith in Christ
Each one has a chance
Extend your your heart and
Embrace God’s free gift
Embodied in Jesus

This titled form was invented in 1999 by Craig Tigerman, Sol Magazine’s Lead Editor. Only one word is allowed in the title followed by a single seven-line stanza. The first word in each line begins with the same letter as the title. Hortensia Anderson, a popular haiku and tanka poet, added her own requirement of restricting the line length to six syllables.

Dear God
,
Do you see the real me
Beneath the heavenly skies
Leaf covered path
On my daily walk I pass by and over so many fallen leaves, some noticeable, some not. Some freshly fallen are filled with beautiful colors while some are withered, lifeless, or hidden beneath others.
It causes me to think that they are like many of us in this world. Some of us are more noticeable than others, perhaps more lively, active or attractive while others might be older, less active, or perhaps feel insignificant or hidden because they are covered in worries or burdens.
Just like the many leaves they may wonder if anyone sees the real them.
But the truth is that God does.
He sees us all, for that is one of His names.
In Genesis 16:13 it says “So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, “You are ‘God who sees,’ because I have truly seen the one who looks after me.”
Hagar was a runaway who was alone in the wilderness with her child, she figured no one cared about her and she thought she and her son were going to die—alone….but God saw her and He spoke to her and helped her.
Matthew 10:29 says that not even a sparrow falls to the earth without God knowing about it, so I am thinking it must be the same for leaves and people too. He sees us all.
Everbody matters
For the clear truth is written
He’s “God who sees me”
