Weight of His Glory

God rained beauty Again His sun smolders, emboldens Then The wonder about the weight of His glory Will it be heavy on my chest? Will it keep me awake, prevent me from rest? What if it comes upon when I am broken and forlorn? I cannot imagine what could come next ... Again He whispers … Continue reading Weight of His Glory

Will We Humble Ourselves?

Bending I observe the trees as they contend With His holy wind Meant to awaken us to our sin God shakes But He cannot be shaken God moves Even in those who seek to prove No truth is in His Spirit Will they ever open their hearts to know it? I keep praying Lord, bring … Continue reading Will We Humble Ourselves?

A Vision of Heaven

And the rain, she comes Pounding Sounding strong Do I belong? Here in the atmosphere Humid Dripping with hatred Threats treading On holy ground Prisoners bound Some taken, some turned Where are those not shaken? Where are my brothers and sisters Who walked, never balking in faith Am I alone here? Bending never Proclaiming my … Continue reading A Vision of Heaven

Harmony

Seeing is Not Always Believing

Pink in Fall?

Locust Song All the Day Long

Listening to the locusts My focus Is on God Am I sure His name is on my head? What of others who splinter the fence, Those who say Jesus doesn't make sense? What of those who speak His name But turn away and defame Him? The end is drawing near It is time Proclaim with … Continue reading Locust Song All the Day Long
