My phantom "beloved", you have broken my trust. My heart is in ruin and my life is like dust. You invited me in, with promise to please. Yet you treat me like sin, and only come to tease. There is no love in you, you don't reciprocate my delight. My passions are not evil, yet you hold them in...

A few days ago, I was dwelling on a fascinating concept sparked by John 7, in which Jesus shows up secretly / unexpectedly in the midst of the Feast of Tabernacles: "But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near, Jesus’ brothers said to him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your...

My phantom beloved how I wish you were mine. Our destinies echo in this haunt across time. Your name is a vapor. Your touch is the wind. Your love - the moonlight. My heart you have pinned. The world waxes darker. The moon shrinks into night. But your smile, beloved, makes the stars remain...

Who Were the Magi? We usually think of the Magi as being a group of 3 wise men. But, they could have consisted of a small group of between 4 to 12 members, or more. The Bible doesn't give a detailed description of who they were, but merely states they were from "the East", which could be Persia...

There seems to be this idea that God and the devil are equals, wrestling for control over this world and for the souls of mankind. However, I often forget that God is in full control and has the devil on a short leash. They are not equal by any means. The devil doesn't rule over Hell, God does...

The intelligence of God is replete throughout creation, such as through patterns, geometry and mathematical algorithms hidden in plants, trees and other natural objects. God leaves His thumbprint on all that He creates. One thing I've noticed in particular is the presence of fractals in nature...

A poem I wrote today about Yeshua, after a friend wanted to celebrate his renewed relationship with God among his friends: Who is this King of glory? That calms the raging sea. He walks on troubled waters, and sets the captives free. His voice is like a trumpet, His eyes a passionate flame...
