One life time
Is not enough time
To love you
Sunday
Sunday Sunday (used to be a fun day) Sunday Sunday Sad Now I gulp down the grief (for all that was lost) And Go (to try) To trust (because) --- Because Of And In And Through And For YOU Jesus For You I trade my anger (towards the ones who poisoned the well) For forgiveness For peace For hope For faith For love For You
It Wasn’t You
Poplars yellow And I go back On horseback Trailing behind your Broad back On horseback too But It wasn’t you I longed for The day couldn’t have been more perfect Sun Fall Trees Breeze Horses But It wasn’t you I longed for
Love One Another
“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:35 (NIV) The impossibility of this staggers me Love one another? What does that look like in these days of Darkness And Division And Derision Help me O Spirit Show me the way Fill me Move me Challenge and correct me May Your words be my words Your way my way Your heart my heart Your thoughts my thoughts Guide me along this unlit path Shine Jesus Shine1
