Traveling
Partner
January,
I went to Panama.
In March
I went to Canada.
The United
Kingdom in June.
Going
to Pennsylvania soon.
Alaska
will be in September.
I’ll
have a lot to remember.
Then maybe
Egypt in 2007,
And
someday, I’ll go to Heaven.
I
travel a lot, I know,
And
trust God’s with me wherever I go.
Aflame
Gossip, rumors, scandals, lies.
I guess it should come as no surprise,
With all the smoke there is a fire.
And as the flames grow higher, higher,
No one can agree on what is burning,
As to ashes, the world is turning.
Walk With Me
Lay your head on my shoulder,
as I kiss you on the top of your head,
hold your hand,
and smile on you.
I tilt your head up,
look into your eyes,
and say, “My child, I love you.
All that I think, say and do
shows my love for you.”
I squeeze your hand
And say, Walk with me.
Let us partner together.
Let’s take it a day at a time,
a moment at a time.
Don’t get ahead of yourself
Don’t get ahead of Me.
But let us walk hand in hand.
Moment by moment.
Yes, My favor is upon you.
It won’t be long, little one.
The time will go in a flash.
Then you’ll be with Me.
But for now, walk with Me.
Moment by moment.
Hand in hand.
Step by step.
Hidden Glory
I think about how John,
so comfortable with Jesus
laid his head on His breast.
But when he met the resurrected Christ
he “fell at his feet as though dead.”
All that deity and glory
had been wrapped up
and hidden in a human body
to carry out His love for people.
Panic
Panic
seems so far away,
Now,
that I’m in the comfort of my home
Without
the lost passport, missed planes,
And
hospital beeps.
In the
stillness of the morning
Having
my quiet time with Jesus
Who
brings the calm and peace
And I
wonder how I ever get so close to panic.
It’s
like when you’re hot
And
can’t remember what it’s like to be cold.
Or
when you’re cold
And
can’t imagine sweating in the sun.
I know
that panic isn’t as far away as it seems.
It may
be just around the corner.
That’s
why the Word says
To set
your mind on things above.
Cool
Ninety-five
degrees
I did
not pack shorts for Wales
But it
was still cool
Urquhart
Castle
From a
high level
in
Urquhart Castle,
I
tried to imagine
what
it would be like
to
look out over
the
silvery Loch Ness
under
the pale blue sky
and
fluffy white clouds
back
in the 1200’s.
How
grand it was!
After
centuries,
of
English and Scottish powers
fighting
over it,
in the late 1600’s,
the
government forces blew it up
to
keep it out of the hands
of the
Jacobites.
Now,
thousands of tourists
explore
the ruins,
click
photos
and
joke about
catching
sight of Nessie.
A
first day of summer
inspiring
imaginative dreams.
