LIFE IS GOOD!

I climbed up a tree.

Just one bird was welcoming.

Truly a great start!

LISTEN TO HIS VOICE

“ALL of my senses listen, see, and appreciate the love of God in His amazing gifts such as these and so many more!! ” –Martha Shaw

 

 

“There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story” – Linda Hogan –

 

WHAT IS FAITH?

HE WILL NEVER LEAVE ME

I am touched by the rays

Of a sun I cannot see.

Still, I am changed.

DO NOT HIDE YOUR FAITH!

If I love the Lord, this should always be clear to see.  If I love Him in private but by my actions deny Him in PUBLIC, I have failed Him.  I am not been reflecting my beloved, in whose image I was created.  I should then confess my sin and seek to do His will at all times and places, that others may know Him as well.

 

 

 

LIKE THE MOTHER BIRD

Just as a mother bird broods 

to protect her young . . .

giving them warmth,

safety,

covered with her love,

and when the time comes

sets them free

to do as they were created to do . . .

so, too, does our Creator God

love and protect us

in the shelter of His wings.

We may not see Him,

but His love, power, and grace

are with us always.

REFLECTED GLORY

Lord,

your great love

your grace,

your favor

sweeps the clouds away

and opens my eyes anew

to the brilliance of Your light . . .

more glistening even than the sun

shining down on me

in unmeasurable abundance

from the endless sky!!

Let me be your servant

that others

may feel drawn to you

and know

your magnificance!

REBORN!

My transformation

mosaic of brokenness

reordered by God
