“I come to the garden alone”.
This fellowship altar is only sweet
in its aroma of brokenness toward God
if I have communicated “Please forgive me”
to those I have offended.^
But, the antiquated “Alas!” fits well
this frustration: there are so many
people whom I cannot go back to.
I am...
Clear and resounding,
the Spirit-speaking conscience
brings Light, touching thought,
impression, word and path.
To my soul ‘tis its Audience,
applauding and critiquing,
some days, obvious,
in others shouting, “Act!”
In family relation,
adoption expectations
speak as loud as words,
bringing...
2 Kings 2:9-15
9 When they had crossed, Elijah said to
Elisha, "Tell me, what can I do for you
before I am taken from you?" "Let me
inherit a double portion of your spirit,"
Elisha replied.
10 "You have asked a difficult thing,"
Elijah said, "yet if you see me when I am
taken from you, it will...
That we love God is only amazing because
He created, latched onto the want
to show that a remnant can’t just throw it away.
They don’t call Him, for nothing, “The Rock”, “Strong to Save”.
My, what a husband was picked for the Bride!
What He eternally proposed will ever abide.
A covenant...
Psalm 81:4-6 (NIV 1984):
4 this is a decree for Israel, an ordinance
of the God of Jacob.
5 He established it as a statute for
Joseph when he went out against Egypt,
where we heard a language we did not
understand.
6 He says, "I removed the burden from
their shoulders; their hands were set
free...
(. . . Thinking about 1 Corinthians 13-14)
If I were to speak in tongues,
someone would interpret
and edify, by praise or song,
beyond heavenly syllabic.
Ecstasy would take a seat
to reverential utterance,
with spirit-mind in harmony,
conveying faith as substance.
By “two or three”— the Good...
A man finds joy in giving an apt reply—
and how good is a timely word! ~ Proverbs 15:23 (NIV)
When our joy is received by the good that we do,
the small things align to God’s sovereign loom
as His Spirit weaves tapestry all through the room
we see as we meet and renew as we go.
Wisdom is...
A few nights ago, I had a restless sleep. While half-awake, I tried to recall some Scripture verses that would speak to our resting in the Lord. The passage, “God is love”* came to mind: not just the expression but the impression of each word. My body and mind quieted down as I thought further...
After pondering “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning” ~ from Psalm 30:5 (KJV)
If today you hear his voice,
then like any other
render God your choice.
Blessed, the one whose dawn brings noise,
when joyful praises offer
sender’s holy sacrifice.
Joy comes in the morning...
Concerning Jacob’s wrestling with the Angel,* the pre-Incarnate Christ:
Wrestle me , in the caverns of my heart,
reveal how election wounds by choosing to impart
a lesson learned, when you let us strive
to understand your ways.
We crouch to grasp but only because
you show up to bout and save...
I feel it, all the world aflame
in spiritual battle, our own sin the blame. ^
Father, forgive them—those who would torment,
for they know not better, so Golgotha-bent.
Yet, we on whom your anointing rests
rise above the rage, resurrection-blessed. ^^
Oh, how your Spirit compensates;
despite...
There is a secret place no power can infiltrate.
It comes without walls for God’s very own:
to topple it—flesh is too late!
The finger of God is making cosmos for us,
so he came to this earth with an already-wide berth,
his typical miraculous.
Then, let nations rage, and tribes strut their...
Lord, within this persecution, help me to despise
all bitterness and let the sweetness of your precious love
be such an ever-flowing pulse within my heart, mind, and soul
that all the ordinary, and what would worry, lack luster next to You.
For, what it cost You makes all my discomfort pale...
(after reading Acts 4:1-22, key verses…
19 But Peter and John replied, "Judge for
yourselves whether it is right in God's
sight to obey you rather than God.
20 For we cannot help speaking about
what we have seen and heard.")
When the senses overrule those traditions of our common school,
what...
The Cross, after Resurrection,
on which I have reckoned I,
before the God of eternal justice,
can say “We trust in Blood applied!”,
bids me to follow Jesus,
to in Love live and to sin die.
To “take up my cross” means that I
am with Christ crucified,
am faithful, ever walking past
Calvary, to...
(A hymn)
Belief: yes, it happened!
Belief: I am stirred
deep down in my soul that
Christ came, arose on earth!
Received: full redemption!
Received: so I have learned
the sound of “Forgiven!”
Christ came, to cleanse me here.
Glad tidings of Heaven:
goodwill to those who please
God by full...
(after reading Matthew 15:21-28)
Sometimes it feels like I’m dished out crumbs,
but they say Heaven harbors no bums.
Lord, lift me in these circumstances.
Cover my heart with your worthiness. *
Cause Lazarus rejoices in Heaven,
although he craved where the rich crumbs lay.
This makes me feel...
Overtures from Heaven, wondrous wave,
wooing us with music of God’s saving grace,
pounding, as a surf upon a foreign shore,
telling us—yes!, “There, His ark for Home!”
Come, you witnesses of Love, by twos,
(only those who share of Christ may go)! *
Prepared is the way for everyone. **...
(after reading Proverbs 19:21-23 and Psalm 31:15)
The fear of the Lord leads to life,
self-trust shoved from the zone of covenantal time.
God’s never-minute hand makes his purposes prevail.
Our loyal heartbeat-hand travels, gladly confessing all is well,
communion’s hourly declaring God’s...
