What do you want? You may say: security, a relationship, success, healing, better job, a home, a child, money & so many others. Will you get your want? I don’t know. I pray for peoples’ wants and my own. Some want a need to be met and I wish that I could say that faithfulness…
The starting point to faith is nothing. Faith itself is a mustard seed but it springs up from zero. It’ll give you a buzz, this belief that is senseless. I want to take a ride on it. Put my dreams on it and let it play out. Truthfully, the feeling of being up there, or…
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. PSALM 63:2-4 Oh, ♡ʟᴏʀᴅ♡, You are my Love and Light….
What an interesting poem. The double meaning is what caught my attention. As a disciple, a learner, a pupil, I’m constantly being taught by life and by God. I especially get an education in storms. If I pay attention, it’s an understanding that spiritual eyes take in. The supernatural expansion of the pupils that allows…
Here, you’ll experience human love, service, care, concern, kindness. Not as often as we’d like but it does happen. Yet, underlying all that is a level of self. Do you understand what I’m alluding to? The ever-present part of us that can’t help but think of ourselves not even for a microsecond. Ok, let’s say…
This was the poem/prayer I composed at 3 am this morning. It would have been so much easier to have converted from human flesh to a spiritual vessel, at the point of being born again. But that didn’t happen. So, here I am, still stuck in this flesh. It’s a constant reminder of the weakness…
I haven’t actually, not completely. I’m trying to. The rituals & practices are mostly gone, but the guilt remains. It’s all tangled up in the religious code that I haven’t been able to completely eradicate. I have the knowledge that is found in the Word, which frees me from all religiosity. “It was for freedom…
Good is difficult to define. The synonyms are just not exact matches. Maybe contrast is better. Good vs. Bad or Good vs. Evil. The comparison helps. With regards to God, he is nothing but Good. He is Good in every-single-way. He is Perfect Good and He is overflowing in it. Evil and Bad do not…
“Come near to God and he will come near to you.” James 4:8 Pastor Lee invited me to guest write on his Instagram ministry account. He provided the photo image (he’s a photographer), I wrote the quote and the message. That was kind of fun. The message is below: ▪”Draw near.” I searched the Greek…
After I made this and framed it, I thought I’d have a profound and meaningful post to go with it. But, I don’t. I can’t add any more layers to that snippet of Scripture. I think it pretty much expresses what I want to say without expounding unnecessarily. At church, the “Praise Project” was announced…
