ALL

All

All I have
Is to trust
In You
Lord Jesus
Everything else
Is here today
And gone within
The next heartbeat
Help me
To only seek
You

You are
The Way
The Life
The Truth
The only Root
Of all life
Plant, animal or man
All life flows thru
Your Gentle, Loving Hands!

Twinkle

Twinkle!

Twinkle, twinkle
Crash, roar
Disparity
Disparity
I will never even the score
If I died once or thrice
Can't equal the precious price
Heaven paid
To get to the day
Where each man,
Woman,
Child
All can say
By Christ's blood
Have I been saved!!

I haven’t had much of a chance to blog for the past month. My husband and I have moved from a two story townhouse to a one level condo in our town. He’s had cancer, strokes and bad knees and couldn’t get up the stairs any longer. So glad and grateful to God He finally got us moved. Praise God!!

Love This Time of Year!

I love this time of year. You can always tell it’s spring when it is warm enough for the turtles to sunbath on the rocks. I ride my bike along our greenway system on the riverbank. The first fresh green of baby leaves on the trees is coming out good, and I got to take a photo of some of the new blooms on the wildflowers. I hope you can get outside this spring to enjoy the beauty of our God’s wonderful creation. May God bless your day and spring!!

Seas

Seas

Seas, they come 
& they go
Over my head
& around my arms
I feel
As my heart begins
To reel

Liquid,
A living Spirit also
Encircling 
Surrounding
Every movement, 
Every thought
In its power, 
This Spirit’s sea
Do I feel caught

Within this moving
Sovereignty
Your joy, Your glee
Entranced
As I watch, see
Causes my heart to sing
Your Name
Yahweh!

Always, ever
Mysterious
Yet alive 
Is most impervious
To the loud demands
Of a world most resistant
Around its darkness 
Also swirls

But, 
Your tides You send
Always coming only to cleanse!

Spring’s Trumpets

Spring’s Trumpets

Orange & yellow
Your colored voices ring 
So clearly
Displayed for all to see
Piercing thru to my heart’s senses
Oh the purity in your joy-filled glee!

Trumpets splashed, splayed
Spreading further outward
Declaring that beauty again of 
One more of our God’s filled days

I stand absorbing your attractions
So welcome from this world’s distractions
Down leafy vines toward the earth
You throw yourself, never hesitant
Oh, to sleep as you in a bed 
So deep & green & pleasant

So, I rejoice as on my way
I am allowed to watch
Your graceful heads sway
Within each passing breeze

Thank you, God, again
For the beauty of your earth
My day I am allowed to begin
Watching as You bring back spring
And the joy which only that can bring
Reminds not only of a physical rebirth
but that in each new reborn spirit 
lies Your own unspeakable worth!!

Nothings to Something

Nothings to Something

People say I am a survivor
Really something
But I say no
To you I would like to show 
The Only Something

I am almost nothing
Held together
My skin & bones
As on this planet I roam
Only by the Someone

By whose hand I was
Created
By whom all our sin & death was
Abated

This living, breathing God
Is the Great Someone
At whose pleasure I exist
In whose hands joy never desists
& from whom will I never run

We live at His Pleasure
We serve at His Pleasure
At the end all heartbeats
For His Pleasure
All at once &
At last will be gathered!!
