I used to pray for tiny bits.Not wanting to be greedy.I didn’t want to trouble God.Or appear to be too needy.God told me that my pantry’s full.And I was eating crumbs.He said, Stop eating with the pigs.Remember where you’re from.My love for you is so immense.My mercy ever grows.You’re taking little tiny sipsFrom a cup…

A dream I had, I won’t forget,Where I watched dark clouds form.The ocean pounded on the shore.My life was in a storm.I prayed out loud, Lord, stand with me.This storm is too severe.God said, My child, I never left.I’m here, so do not fear.Lord, I can’t see or feel You here.Large houses wash away.And lightning…

A poor old woman, once there was.Her husband long since dead.She worked her fingers to the boneTo keep her family fed.She labored for each meal they ate.And daily did she striveTo scant produce what they need most.To keep them all alive.No Bible did she ever own.But from sermons that she’d heard,Though sometimes they’d no food…

There were some thirty soldiersWho knew the dregs of war.Ignoring human thoughts of fear,They crossed the desert floor.They traveled now by dark of night.Their mission so covert.They sought to rescue soldiers, brave,The enemy had hurt.A sandstorm came up suddenly.It completely blocked there sight.It stopped them right there in their tracks.And lasted through the night.And so…

Like there’s raindrops on our windows,Our vision can be skewed.So we see a man as uglyIf he does something rude.When Jesus cleared the court that day,They only saw the rage.They couldn’t see His love for God,That led the war He waged.It can be hard to see some thingsAs through the Father’s eyes.The filter on His…

A Christian man, who had passed on,Now stood before the Lord.Two books were there, the Lord would useTo determine his reward.The first book listed his good works.All kingdom tasks he’d done.Things done in love and purest heart,To those he’d blessed and won.The other book held all his sins.Each page completely blank.Christ said, Because I died…

The darker that this world can get,The brighter shines the Light.If you have your sword and armor on,Then you’re prepared to join the fight.If our army gets down on their knees,And prays in one accord,The darkness cannot persevere.The battle is the Lord’s.Someday the Lord will rescue usFrom a world that seeks our harm.But we’ll need…

There is a suitcase in my hand.It’s filled with rocks and chains.They are the weight of my life’s trials,That, in my heart, remains.It hinders all I try to do.it makes me slow and weak.It is a wall that keeps me fromThe purpose that I seek.And so, One day, I closed my eyes.I bowed my head…

I thought, how can I love my wifeAs Jesus loves the church?So, I got out my Bible,And I began my search.He loves her with the wisdomGod gives Him from above.The only thing that He commands,Is for our hearts to love.He doesn’t come to judge her.His words do not condemn.She needn’t beg Him for His help.But…

Have you ever made poor choicesAnd then said, Man, I knew it,I heard the right choice deep insideBut ignored it, and I blew it?Have you had a great ideaThat ended in defeat?It didn’t go the way you thoughtAnd you had to take the heat.We’re getting promptings every day.But we must know where they’re from.Only then,…
