Impending Light
The ravaging of evil intent wraps around my limbs to pull me down and steal my life whenever God breathes upon me to rise. His mighty fire is alive and well, but the battle is fierce. The shadows still grip me and burrow ever deeper to avoid the light. They survive the reckoning of God’s Continue reading

Flow
Dropping in, getting real, what danger is there? If I connect to how I feel, I will be swallowed up! Feelings so big from the magnetism of momentum, rolling over myself so many times for the sake of perseverance that I am crushed underneath. And the cycle continues until I reach a cliff. What weight Continue reading

Replica
Mind spinning again, over nothing of consequence, or is it everything? Who can tell?Engine revving in my chest when I’m not built to run, but there is no more fuel. This should not be possible. I am an abominable machine, alive by supernatural means: a replica of the original man formed from clay by God’s Continue reading

Blessed are you, patient, unwavering God, faithful Creator of life and beauty, who brings forth all peace and restoration.

To the Bearer of All Things
Thank You, Oh King, for holding us in Your heart and Your ways, even when we can barely hold ourselves; Maybe especially then, when it’s hard to feel, but one moment of considering reveals we would fail to even exist without You. This every breath is Yours. This leaden weight is Yours. This struggle and Continue reading

Water of Life
Save me, please, from this vile thing in me. God of my soul, I beg, transform this abomination. For my flesh lures me in to tear me down, and I can’t bear the shame any longer. Don’t let me sink in these dark waters, this terrible swamp I fell upon too far within myself. Take Continue reading

The Maker’s Jewels
How evil is this world now and how Your heart must break… Can You look away when so many of Your jewels are stolen as darling hearts are broken? The most precious gem of innocence is plundered by wicked appetites who forgot the light. They dirty the glass and fracture the core. They buy and Continue reading

The Immeasurable Gift
Your grace is a gift bigger than a mind can comprehend. These wild imaginations You gave us cannot come close to the full vision. Though lofty are the heights we try to touch, Heaven is out of reach because Your grace lives there. Your kindness and love would demolish the wickedness of our current state, Continue reading

Master of Lights
Of all the lights that exist none are more beautiful than Yours. It’s as if You gave us the lesser lights as a glimmer of hope in what’s to come. For one day soon You will be our only source of light. And we shall bask in Your sublime warmth forever. Until then, we marvel Continue reading
