An Old Foe Appears (Christian Poem)

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. …

Where I Am Mentally & How You Can Pray For Me

I have been struggling these past few months when it comes to blogging. Originally, I thought it was burnout, but I think it might be something more.

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.

Ask God To Break Down Walls

Seeing Things At Night Update – I’m Doing Better

Fear Of Letting Go Of Our Control & Letting In God

Imagine that life is like a car we drive and the road representative of our walk with Christ. The car itself is the state of our heart. Coated in the rain as we desire to be cleansed, yet, we never dry off, and therefore freeze with indecision. Lukewarmness. Our inside is freezing because we cannot …

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 …
