Why is the shepherd running ahead?
Does He not care?
Where are my caring friends?
Again,
nobody wants me!
“My child.
I Am ahead of you preparing the way!”
They quietly discussed His purpose,
though the child wondered.
Hearing and seeing many behind the two,
she asked the Lord
“What are they doing?”
“My child, they are fasting while providing prayer support!”
She knelt at His feet.

Prayerful Thoughts Over Morning Coffee

For great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord.

Could it truly be an accident
that God spelled backward
becomes dog?
Though animals are frequent in the Bible,
I do not recall my Scrappy . . . or your Sadie.
But,
though God’s love is not questioned,
the sweet faced,
soft eared,
warm tongued critter
and her unquestionable love and kisses
have nursed many a heartbrake.
Thank you Lord!

Wings in flight . . . the traveller sings,
Leaves on the now empty branch dance.
and the song grows further away.
Seasons change.
New gifts are given.
New songs are sung!

It’s been raining long and hard
And gray skies were all I could see.
But today is different,
Or perhaps I am,
For I see a bright spot
Glowing through the
Clouds of morning.
I shall dance!
Dancing with the raindrops
And celebrating the sun
Am I
For today is
A new day
And the Lord has blessed it!

YES! I FOLLOWED!
Surrender

What is that glow
which lies beyond the gate?
Two steps away,
it beckons.
Dare I enter?
