Inside

I used to think I was dead inside But I know I have a fire inside Fueled by an endless supply inside Of dreams and hopes and desires inside Things that come alive inside Awake all my senses inside Keeping me aware, not hiding inside Not dimming my flame or life inside Shining through, smiling … Continue reading Inside

Lowly

I often sit in the background. I prefer to sit behind other people; not because I devalue my self worth, but because of my pride.  You see, I am confident in my abilities, but I don’t need to be loud about them. My actions speak far louder than any of my words ever will.  I … Continue reading Lowly

Thine

”saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.“ ‭‭Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭42‬ ‭KJV‬‬ I’m in a bit of a place, and have been for a while now. My thoughts have been on this bitterness I’ve been drinking, begging for it to be removed.  Or perhaps for … Continue reading Thine

All Things

I’ve always been drawn to Philippians 4:13, but lately it’s taken on a whole new meaning.  I don’t think the intention is that I can do anything, but rather the Lord can do the unimaginable in me.  Paul says he is full yet hungry at the same time. He has famine and plenty… How can … Continue reading All Things

Guilty of All

“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” ‭‭James‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬ ‭KJV‬‬ What a fearful thought!  This is the reason I do not like confrontation: I am guilty of part, therefore I am guilty of all.  Do you ever stop and think about what you might … Continue reading Guilty of All

The Bird

Earlier today a bird flew into my front door… The door was closed and the bird sadly didn’t make it… I read where birds can become lost in the glass and fly into windows thinking they are heading into more open spaces not knowing they are rushing headfirst into a hard object.  Hmmm… How often … Continue reading The Bird

The Rain

Bring on the rain… Honestly, some days I feel like I need a good cleaning.  I feel so dry and dirty…I need that refreshing shower to come and wash away my guilt and shame.  It’s been naturally dry in my little area of the world, and I’ve spent many breaths asking for the rain. The … Continue reading The Rain

Forgetful

“Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.” ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭2‬:‭32‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Maybe I’m the only one, but I don’t think I could forget my wedding day. There are always little things that stick out in your mind on a day like that.  Whether … Continue reading Forgetful

Gifts

“A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.” Proverbs 18:16 KJV This verse was shared with me…it reminded the person of me. I don’t know why.  She said it had something to do with wherever I go, I seem to be the person to go to for advice and answers.  … Continue reading Gifts
