Dry Season

Dry Season

Everyone goes through
A Dry Season
Feeling without a reason
Getting drier, drier
Stress, sorrow, pain
Roaring, growing
Higher, higher

Emotions, the body
Like dry, dead leaves
Dry, dead limbs
Will this dry season
Ever, ever end?
In the middle of the dark
No answer comes
Perhaps in this
Season only is
Found true faith
In Heaven’s Only Son

In the middle of shallow waters
Full of only sludge
Life’s sharp, hard rocks
Oh, for a moment
Please, my next words
Do not me begrudge

Reach up for Christ!!

Always is found His glorious light
In the middle of our darkest,
Most wicked earthly fight
He will provide always
Sunlit, crystal shining waters
His provisions reach deeper
Every heartbeat
Exceeding all other worldly offers

You will bloom again
Christ will help you
Grow in faith through this
Dry season
No matter, the pain,
The strong wind blowing
This dry breeze in
Never will He leave you,
Never will He forsake you
God’s love is still there
Heaven still deeply, deeply cares!

Winter

Winter

I got to enjoy a bike ride along our river’s greenway. Even though it was cold, still I enjoyed the trees, water and some wildlife. Without their leaves, you can really see the actual shapes of the trees, especially the beautiful old sycamore trees with all their white bark. Also got to watch some mallard ducks trolling for food in the river. Also, check out the video above on my youtube channel at https://youtu.be/ZrjWsbPNLOY Have a blessed day!


Winter

Winter's beauty
Owns its own allures
Exhibited in true joys
Although not as green
As luscious summer's toys
But still entertaining
Desiring also our
Approval to be gaining
For remember after all
Tis the mighty hand of God
Creates its chilly framing
And it's rampant charms
Oh so most beguiling

Beauty Sublime

Here’s a short, simple slide show of some photos I took on my bike rides along our greenway system where I live. Hope you enjoy and Praise God!

Beauty Sublime

Beauty Sublime
O’ for me sheer bliss
No matter the season 
Or the time
Lovely forms and colors
Upon his creation
God left one more kiss

Multitudes, varieties
No two exactly the same
To help us enjoy
And our senses to please
All this beauty
Was for man’s gain

So wander the world
Drink in its wondrous sights
Leaving it whole
Let it lift you to
New heavenly heights!

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
