Sitting at Father’s side
Christ, our Savior lives
Overcoming darkness
Empty tomb proves He lives

Trusting faith’s witnesses
Christ lights Father’s way
Calling for repentance
Many baptized this day

Transforming fiber’s flesh
Christ welcomes each saint
Sharing love’s forgiveness
Holy Spirit repaints

Receiving redemption
Christ intervening
Teaching with righteous breath
Faith accepts spring-cleaning

Calling upon His name
Christ shares trusted grace
Breaking chains of bondage
Heaven’s light to embrace

In God’s eyes, repentance should not be a passive thought absent of commitment.

Do you write a daily journal?  This inspiring thought comes from my journal, and much of what is written in my journal comes from reading and commenting on other bloggers’ posts.  Thanks to many of you for adding so much to my journal.

Be united with other Christians. A wall with loose bricks is not good. The bricks must be cemented together.

“From 1 Corinthians 3:16:  “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?“

Corrie ten Boom (1892-1983) was a Dutch watchmaker and later on a Christian writer and public speaker. As part of the Dutch resistance during World War II, she and her family protected hundreds of Jewish people from Nazi persecution. Eventually she was captured and sent to a concentration camp. She and a nephew were her  family’s only survivors of the Holocaust.

Daily Offering

Heavenly sunshine

Landscape gathers gift of grace—

Rising every morn

Tender Touch

Gentle breeze above

Cascading with every breath—

Dawn’s signature peace

Invitation Received

Daybreak’s welcome light

Encouraging renewal—

Darkness overcome

Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees.

In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.

John Muir (1838-1914) was an Scottish-born, American naturalist.  He was one of America’s earliest  advocates for wilderness preservation, and he has been referred to as the “Father of National Parks.”  His unwavering support and influence led to the establishment of Yosemite National Park.

From John 1:16-17:  “From His fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.  The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”

Best and worst of times

God’s grace always chimes

 

Loving and caring

Promises bearing

 

God remains at hand

Faith and hope shall stand

 

Seeking empty hearts

Molding time’s restart

 

Life’s melody plays

Offer Him our praise

 

God’s grace taking root

Peace filling love’s flute

 

Gloom and doom appear

Allow Him to steer

 

God’s love shows He cares

Guiding day’s affairs

 

Hope’s beacon awaits

In His hands, our fate

 

Witness as His child

Life no longer wild

 

Forgiveness and love

Shared from God above

 

God’s grace shapes life’s frame

Praise His Holy name

From Lamentations 3:22-23:  “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”

This poem is inspired from some past entries in my “Take-Aways” journal.  Each entry is based upon something read and studied in a morning devotional.
