Hope

The joy
Of letting
Go
Is if
You can do
It
Without reservation

The prison

Release me
From the
Prison
I've erected

Pray

I just found out about the passing of Charlotte Young. I am saddened. Thank you for the prayers and love you gave her. If you would pray for her family and those who loved Charlotte, thank you so much.

Happy Easter.
Risen from the grave
Ascended the the Throne
My sin
Washed away
White as snow

The rise

Fall down
Get up
Let Him
Fill you
Up
The world
Will not
Rise
Lifter
Of my
Head
Do
What
You
Do
That
People
Cannot
Generate

Grace

My grace is sufficient
Trusting you
While trying
To rest
Be still
In the
Knowledge
Of Your
Permanence
My heart
May break
Soul ache
And yet
You still
Remain
Over it all

Love letter

Paris
Notre Dame
You may be burning
And my heart
Saddened that
I hadn't the chance
To experience
Your grandeur
Hopes to find
A blessing
Amongst the ashes
The tears i can't bear to muster
The what ifs
I faintly shudder
I wonder if I love the building
More than the people
For all its splendor
I miss the point
If I can't remember
Why it stood
We shall meet
Ma cherie
Mon Paris

Joy

Finding joy
Peace
And hopeful exuberance
In the everyday
Blessings
Abound
Right before
Our eyes

sixteen

Sixteen years
Of following
You
What have I learned
Nothing is easy
It is worth it
Even when I wonder
Or question
The relationship
That doesn't end

On the good
The pain

The ressurection 
Wonderfully

Made 
In the image
Of Perfection

Speaking

Speak over me
Give me strength
To fight
Another day
Love me
When I won't
Daily graces
For what I can't stand
Forced to accept
Smile
Through it all
The joy
Of waking
Another day
The blessings
Of service
To You
My King

Would you rather

Eat salad or noodles
Drink water or whiskey
Relax or exercise

Surface

See me
Really look
Skin deep
Beyond the surface
Behind the smile
You might
Be surprised
At what you find

Faith

Faith
Trust
Do I
Have it
In you
Expectation
As quick as it came
Let me down again
I held your promise
As solid
Only to be shaking
My head in disbelief

Flex

Need to explain
Or do I
Worry
I know you
Enough to know
We need to quit
This long distance relationship
Glass is not empty
Not full
On the edge
Between what is
Right and wrong

Gaze

I wish
I watch
I wait
I leave
My desire
To the side
Anticipating
The greatness
You seek
From me
I dream of escapes
Faraway
All you want
Is to attune
My gaze
to what I can see
