The Resume
Posted Friday, May 24, at 12:33 PM I waited patiently for the interview I wasn't sure what I would say or do Several before me were dressed to kill Confident in their abilities and skill Detailing each and every accomplishment Self-assurance in how they would present So much talent and good looks, too...
Please GOD He's the god of the mountain and the valley, too There's no place where God is not with you Even in the midst of your darkest hour You have no strength, word or power A warrior too hurt to continue to fight Darkness seems to be overwhelming light...
Autism Speaks Autism speaks but no one hears They can see problems but not the tears Needing flexibility but refusing to budge It is so much easier to label and judge Emotionally fragile struggling to fit in Disobedience and punishment again A confusing blur of expectations and demands...
When You Open Your Heart When you open your heart you open a door To a world that others easily ignore Inviting in the way of the Cross Purifying fire spiritual dross Embracing those the church can't see There is no vision when eyes are on thee Hearing the cries feeling the pain...
A Different Army Isaiah 11 (NIV) 6 The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them. 7 The cow will feed with the bear, their young will lie down together,...
Holy Is Not A Four Letter Word Holiness is received not achieved. Holiness is accepting a gift given not compensation for work done. Holiness begins in the heart (seed), transforms the mind (seedling), and is evidenced by how a life is lived (tree). Example of a holy life.....
What I See I look into my mirror saddened by what I see There's nothing attractive or beautiful about me How can Jesus love me with all my imperfection Acceptance is difficult when I'm used to rejection Every time He touches me a part of me cringes Knowing I'm not good enough self-pity binges...
The Search I walked down a street with churches on each side One had promised prosperity but they had lied Another had many activities for folks to enjoy Always the latest gimmick, program, and toy One had music coming from it that was way too loud Those on the stage got much praise from the crowd...
Successful Failures Take a wet sponge and throw it against the wall and water will splash out. Take a christian who is soaking in the Lord and throw them into a trial or difficulty what happens? Does Jesus "leak" out or flesh? A lot depends on if we are absorbing His Presence or are absorbed by the world...
When GOD Gets Personal Self is an obstacle and my worst enemy Surrendering to GOD is the key to victory Owned means we're adopted and not property Knowing who we are allows us to live in liberty Our heavenly Father patiently shows us the way Often despite our best efforts and words we say...
Where Do You Stand In this world we must know who is our friend So many players, liars, and those who pretend Truth must be protected at any cost Even if sometimes we offend the lost So you ask the question, "Where do you stand?" Sounds less like a question more like a demand...
Thank-You, Father The needs are great my resources small There is no way I can meet them all I do all I can but it is never enough Overwhelmed by hurts, demands and stuff I cry to the Lord but He is strangely quiet I don't know how much longer I can fight Violent waves battered the ship again and again...
Truly Free Psalm 94:19 (NIV) When anxiety was great within me, your consolation (comfort, peace) brought joy to my soul. This is my twenty year bible study on hurting. It began with Psalm 142:4 (KJV) I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul...
Hope H ear O pen P ray (protect) E mbrace Beyond the show with its' allure Past the pharmacy's chemical cure Fantasy ends and reality starts Broken people, dreams and hearts Seeking answers finding none Needing intimacy being shunned Invisible tears whispered prayers...
Innocent Blood With churches all around she suffered alone Too bad they all were made of stone She talked much but no one hears Nor do they see the invisible tears Evil took away what she treasured most Protecter of children they proudly boast Unsatisfied they had to steal her hope...
I'm Not Worthy Father, there is so much I want to do How does this life I live glorify You I wait for the real ministry to begin Another year passes disappointed again There's so much in my heart where do I go I am tired of this search when will I know I have the love, joy, peace of spiritual fruit...
How many apples does it take to make a banana split? 1. What fruit is best at gymnastics? 2. What fruit always gets married in church? 3. How do you make ice cream? 4. How many apples does it take to make a banana split? 5. What fruit can be used to make hay? Logan, nine years old, and I, much older, made up these jokes this week during campmeeting. Our family had a room in a cabin at Pinecrest. The kids love it. So do I...
The Coward Just beyond the hill are a people captive Their bodies are free their minds are not In this prison called life there is no escape Darkness greedily searches for more Among the wounded, hurt and overwhelmed Devouring all hope of ever being whole I am safe my people are not...
Our Secret Shame Jabesh-Gilead is once again under attack Its inhabitants do not have the ability to fight back Offering to surrender does not satisfy the Ammonite's lust Taking the inhabitants children away is an absolute must They plead for time hoping someone will rescue...
Retreat Forward Life is a confusing blur of emotions and stress How did I ever get myself into such a mess Demands for attention and another bill to pay Is life really better living this way The more I get the more I seem to need Locked in this mindset needing to be freed...

I have the heart of a poet, the eye of an artist, and dress like a bum. I am no one important. No title, no position, no authority. Just a normal person. But I know Jesus. And Jesus knows me. And this relationship has changed my life and continues to change my life. I have no desire to be known but great desire for others to know Jesus.
I would like to blog about Jesus, christian living, church, hurting, hope. I do not want to lead this blog but follow it wherever it leads.
