Lifeless as a thinning rust

And souls were born, His sacred plan

A Patch of Land
There’s a place inside your heart where things are steady. Not perfect. Not problem-free. But steady. It’s the place where God’s presence outweighs everything else… where peace isn’t based on circumstances, but on who is reigning within.
Bathed in Glory
Waking up in this new land
Bathed by glory, there we stand
Greeting friends and family too
Full of life, our dreams made true
Gladness in the Heart
A gladness rests inside my heart
Then spills beyond to do its part
Of making friends and wishing well
To those with health and those more frail
Heart and Mind
This poem traces a journey many believers know well. The mind races. The heart bows. The words stumble. And still—God meets us. In God’s love, prayer is not performance. It is presence. Even when we feel nothing…even when silence stretches long…
Tale of Two Hearts
It strikes me that God gives us two hearts.
One that beats about 100,000 times a day with stunning precision.
And another that helps us express love and care for others through compassion, mercy, truth, generosity, and more.
All reflections of the heart of our God.
A Family’s Touch
Isolation and "doing life on your own" often leads to increased risks of depression, anxiety and overall decline.
