Mixed Seasons

Your hands were like summer

But your heart was pure winter

Quietism

Jesus never complained**
Should we?

5w

Complaining has never solved a problem, it only compounds!

Along the Pathway

All along the pathway,
covered in snow and ice;
I walked alone, but I
found God was with me!

...

"...for he hath said, I will never leave thee nor forsake thee." Heb. 13:5
I tend to forget this sometimes.

The Greatest Love

Do you believe in Love
Can you endure the pain
Can you take a hold of what is given
And give it back again

For what is the greatest Love
That one would give their life
A substitute for the multitude
A Godly sacrifice
All praise to Jesus Christ

Wondrous Love (Haikus)

What I thought was love
Was really just head knowledge
Love is way deeper!
•
Such grace, undeserved!
Too obscure for mere mortals
God's agape LOVE!
•
Unconditional!
Loving me beyond my will-
And without merit!
•
Loving me dearly,
He instilled His love in me
Letting me love Him...*

The subject of love has been gravely adulterated due to gross frivolity!

Prayer #1

Meet me on my knees
In my very point of needs

Cause me to tremble
In Your presence, your holy temple

Bestow on me Your blessings
Adorned with divine lessons

Dip me in the Blood
The precious, that calms every flood

Lift me and raise me up
All the way to the top

Remove my wicked heart
Replace with one colorful as art

Tis my humble prayer Lord
Take it and give me Your Word!
