Landscape
"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast because he trusts in You."

A crown
A crown: simple and golden hammered and shined You've given me a crown of old perfect and fitted admired and divine I give it back too beautiful for me to hold I turn away thankful, but determined there's no way a crown like that should be atop my head And yet I catch a glimpse a reflection of...

Cherish
God cherishes you. He cherishes when you think about Him. He cherishes when you give Him your whole heart again & again. So sit for a full minute. Breathe deeply, my friend. Close your eyes and picture Him walking into your room. Thank Him for the sweet peace He brings; the tender joy...

Greater Things
John 14:12 "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, anyone who believes in Me [as Savior] will also do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these [in extent and outreach], because I am going to the Father." The "greater things" mean miracles, signs, and...

Catch the Spark
Oh LORD make us people of prayer: Would we seek You in the morning, afternoon, evening, & night. Would we look for you in the crevices of our days. Would we search for you in the shelves of our hearts. Oh LORD make us people of prayer: Would we pray “with the intensity that must come...

Living Stones
