The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart… And none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. Psalms 34:18,22 (Cee’s Flower of the Day Challenge)

Summer’s Breeze
Shhhh…listen…can you hear… Summer’s breeze…God is near. Never in the storm or quake… But gentle breaths that kiss the lake. Still and quiet incline your ear Shhhhh… listen… the Lord is near. __ Lisa Hardy “I caress you with a gentle breeze that refreshes and delights you. I speak softly in the depths of your spirit, where…
May I Be You
Jesus, this one thing I seek to do…May I love others as you have loved me. Break my heart for your people…may I see them as you see them. May I be you today. Amen “This is My commandment, that you love and unselfishly seek the best for one another, just as I have loved you.”…
Walking Through Psalms: Focus
When my glasses become smudged, I’m forced to read words through a haze. Many times I’ve taken them off my nose and used my shirt to wipe away the haze; however, it only creates a greater murkiness in which to navigate the letters upon the page. This is frustrating. Why doesn’t the shirt work? Shirts are…
…Not on my Deathbed…
Let my sentence come forth from thy presence… (KJV) Only you can say that I am innocent, because only your eyes can see the truth. (CEV) Psalms 17:2 Death is right around the corner…maybe not the next corner but it’s surely waiting behind one of them. Last week, I had a “scare.” You know the…

We are the Apple of His Eye
O You who save those who trust in You… Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings… Apples are pretty darn important in our house. I like to eat them with shaker of salt in hand and Corinne loves them cooked in a pie. (I’ve found…
When Mother’s Day is Sad
But everyone has gone the wrong way. (Psalms 14:3) (ERV) (Love Ghost Stories? Go to Creepy Reflections) My heart is relieved with the knowledge that God can bring good from chaos. We’ve all gone the wrong way at least once in our lives; and if you’re anything like me, you’ve taken the wrong road many times…sometimes many times…
You Can’t Fix Everything
You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. This verse became ever apparent to me, some 28 plus years ago. My first-born lay in an incubator attached to all sorts of life saving apparatuses. She was a preemie baby. I had stayed diligently by her…
