Just Dance!

I saw the others in the room

dancing to a tune I could not hear.

I stood aside,

I watched and sighed.

Wishing,

Wondering,

They seemed to share a joy

I didn’t know.

They seemed to know a love

I didn’t feel.

I waited in lonely silence.

Then, I could wait no more.

With awkward steps

I left my hiding place

And followed.

At first my steps

Were slow and few

But then it happened!

I began to hear the music, too!

The more I danced,

The less I considered my shaky feet

For I had found something else.

I discovered joy!

THAT’S FOR THE BIRDS!

Whether the day is sunny or stormy,

the birds in my yard sing anyway.

There is quite a revelation in this!

Praise always –  praise anyway – Martha L Shaw

 

IN YOUR ARMS . . .

Dancing In The Spirit

As I rest in your embrace

your immeasurable outpouring of love

makes my spirit dance and sing

as I bask in your glory.

Together,

there is nothing we can’t do.

I am yours.

A LIFE CHANGER!

Empathy is about finding echoes of another person in yourself.

– Mohsin Hamid –

YES, LORD!

You Are The Potter

Sometimes I just need to call out to Abba and He is always there when I do . . . and when I do not.  He knows my every need.  How amazing is that love?

Deuteronomy 31:8
The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.

Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

Psalm 119:76
May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to your servant.

John 14:1
Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me

Rain drops gently fall

It is neither late nor light

Their music feeds me
