Pepper asked me a few weeks ago – “What exactly is an Angel?” I did not have much of an answer. So, a few days ago I scribbled the word Angel on a blank page and started learning afresh. Here is a portion of what tumbled out of scripture. There will be more from me in other missives soon to be written on this topic. Continue reading “Angels all Around Us”
Still Waters
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He leads me by still waters ’til my fears are gone
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Oh I know You are with me
My father, my friend
Your goodness and mercy will follow me all of my days
I know by Your still waters I’m safe
Luke 9: 1-2 Part Two
Gwendolyn Davis
From birth to death
I am a mess
Nothing done
That can be right
Taken from my mess
Life upside down
A grace only given
Acceptance I find
In God
He trusts that
My mess is enough
He accepts that
My mess can help others
For I have learned
That no man
Can save me
I will teach
Of God’s will
Following Him
Trusting in Him
My faith tells
The story
My hope
Is my testimony
My love
Shines bright
For the shine
Is not mine
It is my God’s
Light through me
Miss Kitty And Her New House

One morning Mr. Something-Else-Instead could not find his shirt so he wrapped a tablecloth around his shoulders. He could not find his left shoe so he wore his left rubber boot and he could not find his right shoe so he wore his right fuzzy slipper. And then he couldn’t find his hat so he put a paper hat on top of his head. Continue reading “Miss Kitty And Her New House”
Absolute Control Forever
After reading my thoughts on the Sovereignty of God, Pepper asked the question, “if God has this much authority and freedom, how can we say that man’s free will can influence God’s plan?” Continue reading “Absolute Control Forever”
Psalm
Show me your ways, Lord
God Runs the Show
It has been my observation that Job clearly understood
the Sovereignty of God. This notion of sovereignty states: He rules everything
he has ever made, enforces every directive He’s ever issued, fulfills every
prophecy He’s ever spoken, and loves every person He has ever created.
