A Potter’s Clay Once soft & compliant Lying now Resistant, hard On a cold, sterile ground in broken shards pieces of shattered clay, damaged jars Then comes those Potter’s Hands Warm & ready Full of good plans They reach out to lift And return to brokenness The challenging gift Of to serve a purpose Adding water to soften A dried-out skin Once more He slowly begins to win A softened compliance Using His own Strength & Will Slowly is He able to fill Restore to a fresh new life Each worn out, damaged pot From the roughened, sharp edges He may receive bruises, a few cuts Lose some drops of blood But in the midst of His pain Will come forth a deeper flood Of love, mercy, compassion For the brokenness He repairs So now with newly scarred hands He removes a crusty dirt’s thick layers Revealing at last a clean new creation Returning to it an original beauty & of its dark uselessness, an ablation!

I was trying to catch the last of this summer’s wildflowers on our greenway system down by the river. The drier season of Fall has set in so the flowers are starting to fade away, but there’s always next Spring! I hope you have a blessed and good Saturday.
Core Essence The warmth starts Purity enters the room Your core essence Enters my heart Love, joy Contentment Such as I have never known On this, Our ball of Rolling Stone Glistening, sparkling Shining Literally almost blinding Filling me full Imparting an evening’s lull To all chaos or pain Is this what it will be like Or I suspect even better In your forever’s paradise? To let loose, unshackle the fetters Of all of earth’s dark chaos? Then come Lord God Come now! I lift a holy shout Pour out your Spirit On any & all who try to crowd Around your feet Attempting obedience to keep Protect & bless But give us strength to Stand all horrific tests Of the gift, this precious faith, So freely & willingly You give!
God will come as close and be as personal with you as you will allow. Take time to enjoy His company!
