If, Again

Jan 1, 2020 | Blogs, Poetry Spotlight

I’m a battle-scarred veteran of unsanctified covenant–out alive and grateful! God has lifted my head and my future is His business. It’s not up to me or anyone else.


Abba Father, you know my thoughts regarding that profound mystery, and my dreams of that place I’ve never been: In Season, ordained, and hand-picked. I commit them to you and I trust you to return them to me, sanctified, if again.

That shall be the sweeter portion!

“Instead, you ought to say, ‘If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do

James 4:15

Dead Man, Walking

God’s perfect love is lethal to fear. His grace enables us to trust in Jesus, the one who went before us and goes with us by the Spirit. Because He rose we can embrace the cross. And death-to-self is the door that brings us into divine purpose. Father, I thank you...
