When Jesus said That the love of many Would wax cold. I did not know It would be my heart. I did not know That I could look At human need And just walk away. I did not know That dying souls Looked like hopelessness, And how easy it would be, To turn my face …
Why Am I Proud to be An American?
Why am I proud to be an American? Because brave men for me have died. When evil tried to crush the good, They stood to turn the tide. Why am I proud to be an American? Because my land still stands free. I can worship without fear, I can serve God openly. Why am I …

Overcomers
Revelation 12:11And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. As I read Ephesians 1-2, I just wondered in amazement at all God has offered those who put their trust in Him. How gifts are excessively abundant and …
What If We Were Created to Praise?
What if we were created to praise? “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” A.W. Tozer Paul wrote it a different way: “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, …

They Wait for Me
Matthew 19:14But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. There are two littles, I never got to hold. I never rocked I never saw grow old. My little ones never grew, Or took a breath on earth, But I still call …
An Unneeded Friend

A Song of Submission
Drought-stricken soil grows nothing. The longer the drought, the more the short bursts of rain merely run off the hard soil. What it needs more than anything is life-giving water, but it is too unyielding to receive it. It takes many short, light showers to soften it little by little until life can grow in …
