I’m Not Done Yet

So many things have gone on in my life in the last several days.  Seems like the devil is working overtime to try and steal my joy.  But, that is life, and it’s hard to have a message if there isn’t a mess to go through, or a testimony if there aren’t some tests along the way.  “Consider it a great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.  But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.” James 1:2-4  So…bring it on Satan!  I’m not done yet.   Continue reading I’m Not Done Yet

Veterans Day 2016

 

Praise the Lord we live in a country where men and women have, and do, volunteer to put their lives on the line for us.  “No one has greater love than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13   Today is the day we should all stop and spend some time praying for our military, past and present, who live all over the world.  May God Bless Them All!

Sing Unto The Lord

“I will sing to the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God while I live.” Psalm 104:33

Music has been a very important part of my life always.  It started with my mother’s lullabies, then my father’s folk songs, and then gospel music.   Continue reading Sing Unto The Lord

O Happy Day!

While pipes sing out

Amazing Grace

Carry me to my final

resting place

Let my people

with their own hand

Bury me in

the family land

Next to my grandparents,

my mother, my brother

Where we have been laid

one after the other

That is where

my body shall stay

Until the blessed

Judgment Day

But do not mourn

or linger there

At the grave

you mark with care

For I am not in it

and that is a fact

My spirit is steady,

salvation intact

I’ve gone on to Heaven

a place is prepared

To celebrate and worship

and wait for you there

Hello World!

I am so excited to finally be starting this blog!  What a wonderful endeavor it has been, and I’m finally here.  I hope you join me as I share my creative insights on life, love, and most of all…Jesus Christ.  The good Lord has blessed me in so many ways.  I have so much to share, it’s hard for me to stay focused.  I pray you find encouragement and hope in your own walk with Jesus as you learn more about mine.  All that I do is for the glory of God.  So, buckle up, and get ready for this incredible ride.  May God Bless You!
