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






1 Graham Kendrick, Shine Jesus Shine, 1988.

Poor One

“We love because we first loved us.”
1 John 4:19 (NIV)

The sooner we figure this out
The better off we are

We bring nothing
Nothing
 To the equation
We’re

Poor
Paltry
Pathetic
Devoid 
Of 

Actual
Authentic
Real
True
Perfect

Love

He has it 
He has it to give

Open wide your mouth oh poor one
He will fill it
