Reflections

God has been incredibly faithful in 2010 with numerous changes that were ones I’d never experienced before.

Why do I esteem so high the opinions of others?Why must their eyes be the ultimate judge?What is it that draws me to notability?Why must I have all credit?For these feelings of bewilderment and loneliness—Overwhelming as they may be,Are not credible, but false representationsOf what is important.Can I never be satisfied in knowing that You…

Your presence—an enveloping love soothingMe away from the struggles of this life.Your truth speaks softly into my ear to continue on,And your peace is a beaming light, a place to withstand my fears.Your face is a treasure to my heart—Even though I’ve never seen Your tender eyes and warm smile,I know that they are sweeter…

About a week ago I got back from my first time at Royal Family Kids Camp. I was support staff to help with the kids there that have been in foster care and/or abused sometime in their lives. To be honest, I had no idea what to expect when all of the kids arrived at…

I love to listen to this song, close my eyes, and feel God’s presence. Why don’t you try it today? 🙂

This post was a little bit delayed seeing as God showed me this around Easter time. But I had to share it no matter how late it was! On Good Friday this past year, I read the account of Jesus’s death in God’s Word, and I truly thanked Him for what He had done for…

Psalm 77:4-12 “4 You hold my eyelids open;I am so troubled that I cannot speak.5 I consider the days of old,the years long ago. 6 I said, “Let me remember my song in the night;let me meditate in my heart.”Then my spirit made a diligent search:7 “Will the Lord spurn forever,and never again be favorable?8 Has…
