Shame, shame. Wrapped around and calling my name. Echoes whispering Accusing saying I'm undeserving. And old foe appears. One I haven't seen in many years. He grins, while a sword glints in his hands. I was growing, sowing. Now, the accuser destroying. Ripping apart, what was my heart. Roots broken and seeds marked. … Continue reading An Old Foe Appears (Christian Poem)

Cry Out For Jesus In This Weary World
Sheltered in place. Windows are locked. Car keys on hook. Closed in. Yet, in the stillness thoughts race. In the quiet, fear screams. Some wonder where You are. Some think this is Your judgment. Some think conspiracy. Some ask why. My eyes fail from searching Your word, saying, "When will You comfort … Continue reading Cry Out For Jesus In This Weary World

Ask God To Break Down Walls

Fear Of Letting Go Of Our Control & Letting In God

Our inside is freezing because we cannot … Continue reading Fear Of Letting Go Of Our Control & Letting In God
Be Angry & Do Not Sin
It's really easy for us to know what God can do for us, but it's hard to put that knowledge to faith. We must actively work toward this. David did, too. Today's Reading: Psalm Ch. 4 The Faithful Are Safe Again, David calls out to God. He thanks God for easing his stress, and he … Continue reading Be Angry & Do Not Sin
The One Who Lifts Your Head Against Fear
ADDITIONS TO THIS SERIES! -I noticed in Psalms that David often shares attributes of God. I thought it might be helpful if I share what I find at the end of each chapter. Not only that but for this series in general, I'm going to try to make sure I add at least one praise … Continue reading The One Who Lifts Your Head Against Fear
Finding Comfort In An Empty Room
Have any of you heard the children's song, "He's still working on me?" He's still working on me. To make me what I ought to be. For the past few days, I keep hearing these lyrics over and over. I'm not sure if those are even the lyrics. But that's what I keep hearing. Saturday … Continue reading Finding Comfort In An Empty Room
