Lord

Only One

We build monuments. God writes remembrance. We chase names,set them on buildings,street signs,book covers,and lips. But there is one Nameexalted above all others— a Name that will outliveevery starin the universe. Long afterthe last biographyhas closed, and history has forgottenthose who thought themselvesunforgettable, heaven will stillresound with praisefor one Name: Jesus. If this poem stirred…
The Silver Beneath the Soot

Scripture Focus: “And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver… and shall purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.” — Malachi 3:3 Long before wheelchairs, oxygen tubing, and frequent doctors’ appointments became part of my daily life, I loved wandering through thrift…
When the Road Disappears Into Fog

There’s something deeply comforting about the fact that some of the greatest people of faith in Scripture were not people who always understood what God was doing. We sometimes imagine faith as fearless certainty where a person never wrestles, never grows weary, and never questions anything. But when you read the life of Abraham, you…
Recalculating… Please Wait

Scripture: “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” -Proverbs 3:5 There’s something about a GPS voice that sounds calm even when your life choices are not. “Turn left.” OOPS! You did not turn left. “Recalculating.” No judgment. No sigh. No “I told you so.” Just a patient…
When My Way Isn’t His Way

Scripture Focus: Proverbs 3:5–6 “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” There’s something about the word lean that feels familiar. It’s what we naturally do. We lean on what we know, what we’ve experienced, what…
In the Quiet Places

Inspired by: Psalm 103:2“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.” I used to search for blessingsin the bright and obvious places—the victories, the open doors,the moments that made my heart lift. But gratitude taught me to listenfor smaller sounds—the soft rustle of mercy behind me,the steady breath of grace within…
In the Deep Places of My Heart

Search me, O Lord—not as one who skims the shore,but as a Diver plunges into the dark,where hidden reefs cut unseen,and the currents pull strong against surrender. Break open the sealed roomswhere I have stored my unspoken fears,my carefully wrapped sins,and the idols I name by gentler names.Let Thy light pour in,unflinching,until every corner bows…
Lord of the Harvest

He walked through towns, and dusty lanes,Where sorrow slept and sickness reigned—With healing hands and heaven’s grace,He met each need, each weary face. He taught of peace, He preached the light,He broke the chains of death and night;Yet when He saw the helpless throng,His heart was stirred, His love was strong. Like sheep without a…
Beholding the Lamb

The room was dim, lit by the gentle flicker of oil lamps. Shadows swayed on the walls as the flames moved, soft gold against rough plaster. The smell of unleavened bread floated warm in the air, mingling with roasted lamb, bitter herbs, and the faint tang of wine. Around the low table, the disciples reclined,…
Beyond Inheritance: When God Writes a New Family Story

The first time the line was spoken, the mountain shook. Sand burned in the Sinai sun, and a nation camped under thunder. Moses stood with tablets in his hands, and over Israel there rolled a voice that named God by His own Name: “The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in…
