Tom Peters Quotes

If a window of opportunity appears, don’t pull down the shade.

Smile if it kills you.  The physiology of smiling diffuses a lot of anger and angst.  It makes your body and soul feel better.

Tom Peters (born 1942) is an American writer.  Much of his work deals with business management practices.

Max Lucado Quote

The God who spoke still speaks.  He comes into our world.  He comes into your world.  He comes to do what you can’t.

From Isaiah 46:4:  “Even to your old age I am He; even when you turn gray I will carry you.  I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save.”

Virgin prairie

Endless grassy sea

Fertile, untouched

Living always free

 

Nature’s preserve

Blessed grassy sea

Native people

Worship what they see

 

Gift forever

Treasured grassy sea

Timeless, precious

Mother Earth agrees

 

Standing knee high

Faithful grassy sea

Glory days sing

Praises fill with glee

 

Man’s encroachment

Constant grassy sea

Days now numbered

Earth makes her plea

 

Plowing under

Cherished grassy sea

Another farm

Way of life now flees

 

Forever gone

Priceless grassy sea

Winds of time change

What should always be

 

Pockets remain

Endless grassy sea

Memories breathe

Yesterday foresees

 

Remnants of the original American prairie can be found in places such as the Tall Grass Prairie Preserve in Oklahoma. (Courtesy of Pinterest)

Rachel Carson Quotes

In nature nothing exists alone.

But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself.

Rachel Carson (1907-1964) was an American marine biologist, conservationist, and writer.  Many of her writings helped to advance the global environmental movement.

Eyes Fixed on Jesus


From Philippians 3:10-11:  “I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the sharing of His sufferings by becoming like Him in His death, if somehow I may attain the resurrection from the dead.”

Living in darkness

Flesh from evil lasts

Searching for God’s light

Breaking from sin’s past

 

Walking with Jesus

Loss shall replace gain

Redeeming at cross

Witnessing His pain

 

Wanting to know more

Resurrection’s light

Pressing on in faith

Praising all that’s right

 

Spending time with Him

Eyes fixed on Jesus

Growing in His Word

Liberating us

 

Completing life’s course

Jesus waiting there

Fulfilling mercy

Answering prayers

From Philippians 3:20:  “But our citizenship is in heaven, and it is from there that we are expecting a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
