Sabbath Rest
An oasis in the wilderness.

Wilderness seasons
There was a time,
Not too long ago,
When I was lost;
No roots, no fruit,
Wandering and shallow.
Further along, I acknowledge,
The riches taught
During that wilderness season:
Plant myself wisely,
And let true wisdom mellow.

Rejection
God of all motion
Show me how you're transforming anger
And let me take control

He hears
Whenever I am lonely,
I cry out to you.

Power of Remembering
A brisk pace
Walking to work,
I was struck, with the memory:
the time when I could not walk...
After a stroke, during brain surgery, and a 40-day coma…
My step indeed picked up to a brisk pace,
and a smile came upon my face.
Thankful.

Feast of praise
Hunt me, keep me!
Fleece my nervousness.
Cease my incessant adversaries,
That I might feast on the praise for
YOU.

Broken Dreams
I tried to be clever,
Carrying too much in my hands.
Inevitably, the glass did sever,
Shattering on the floor, lands.
Can I draw parallels,
With my broken dreams?
God’s too, when He breathed life into dust particles
But we, His people, became broken vessels
Living off dry, earthly streams.
In this season, God’s promises
Seem improbable.
Broken vessels are the masses,
Spirit-God, do the impossible…
Mend my distorted dreams today;
Bringing peace where there seems no stay.

Sacrifice with shouts of joy
There's not
Really
much
that I need.
Sure,
There's
PLENTY
I want
BUT
Need…
I need love.
.
.
.
I want love.
But isn't love
The very act of sacrifice?

A coming storm
We sense it first in unspoken
atmosphere; the insects hear it's
silent roar.
Then it breaks; the lightning
Followed by gusty wind, dust soars.
Hell loosened by our desires woken?
Or God just reminding us of who's in control!
