I praise you Lord, for You are good. I bow in humble, grateful gratitude, You fill me up and pour me out and fill me up again-Amen. Oh, thank-you Lord, my Savior King, And Spirit-led, my heart it sings, For You ARE good, you hear my sighs, You steady me and calm my cries, My […]
Nonsense and Dr. Seuss and June Already
“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.” ~ Dr. Seuss Ah, yes, Dr. Seuss, I so […]
With Jesus I Shall Meet
I lean my head against the couch and curl up my feet, My Bible lays upon my lap, With Jesus I shall meet. A cozy blanket ’round me wrapped, As I with Him retreat. I lift the cover of His Word, the pages rustle thin, I turn to Proverbs, then to John, Life-giving words […]
Because Jesus Has Come
The blind receive sight! The lame! They can walk! The deaf, they can hear. The dumb, they can talk! The white and dead skin, From leprosy cured, The good news is preached, By the poor it is heard. Oh, what of these things? What does it all mean? To what does it point? […]

Do I?
Do I find Him faithful? Does He keep His Word to me? Do I trust His goodness? in the things that I can’t see? Do I rest upon His Word? Do I kneel to pray? Do I trust His promises? Believe the things they say? Do I anchor down so deep? When life begins to […]
In the Dry and Dusty Seasons
In the dry and dusty seasons, when the blooms begin to fade, And the flowers of the season begin to wilt away, And the wind is whooping stronger, time seems a little longer, Waiting for refreshing showers of rain. The dust encircles round me and it oft obstructs my view, Hiding distant landscape from […]
The Beauty of the Rose’s Bloom
I’m willing to brave the pain of the thorns, to capture the beauty of the roses. ~ DJF I pour my heartbreak in your hands, My Father. Lord. And here I stand. Amidst these pieces, Shattered wide. Scattered. Shards, shreds inside. Hopes long dashed. Battles lost. Failures felt. Dreams in dust. Tried and tried […]
Crossroads and Confidence
I’m standing at the cross roads I look to left, then right. I look right out in front of me. I cast a glance behind. Crossroads mean decisions. Choices must be made. Wisdom and discernment ~ {to firmly} guide my way. Wisdom for direction, to bring answers to the light. Wisdom in my weakness, as […]
Waiting For Harvest
Waiting for harvest, Waiting this year, Wheat growing golden, Time’s drawing near. Listen? You hear it? Rustling stalks. Waiting for harvest, Wheat fields, they talk. They whisper “It’s coming. Coming quite soon.” Grain is a’drying. Stalks playing their tune. Dancing and waving and waiting too, Waiting for harvest, Skies are so blue. Wheat seed we planted, […]

Liberated by the Light
So tired of intimidated, I want to bathe in liberated. And live in Christ, for I am free. Free indeed. These devil’s lies wrapped around me, They’re false. So wrong entirely. Their choking hold I’ve been so fooled. Not anymore. I’m who my Jesus says I am, Redemption’s plan. From Great I Am. For me, […]
The Best Story Ever
Carefully crafted and skillfully stacked, Form up the walls, What does it lack? Search through the Legos, Determined to find, That piece that I need ~ the one on my mind…. Walls and a roof and a manger I say, Shape it just right for the baby to lay, A camel, a donkey, some sheep […]
Shine Light
I gaze upon the manger, I gaze upon the tree, I gaze upon the twinkle lights, they sparkle shine at me, I notice the sweet shadow of the star upon the wall, The light and glitter fuse and gleam and make the stardust fall, Clear glass bulbs reflect and glow and beauty they proclaim, Gold […]
