Through life’s trials, God humbles each of us.  In the process, He opens another heart where there now breathes love for Him.

Replace your excuses with fresh determination.

Morning’s Rainbow

Someplace beyond morning’s rainbow

Hidden behind radiant sun

Residing in distant chateau

Tomorrow’s dreams forever spun

 

Clouds pushed aside for open door

Daily invitation calls out

Stirring every eagle to soar

Higher and higher, sky’s lookout

 

Opportunity always waits

Passage to high heavens above

Flying over more open gates

Treasured gifts, overflowing love

 

Visions transforming into night

Moonlight shining, fully ablaze

Dancing stars, filled with neon lights

Darkness anxious for sunny rays

 

Rain shadows early daylight’s peace

Sunrise waiting, shrouded in clouds

Rising colors, set to release

Morning’s rainbow, sweetness endowed

Jodi Picoult Quotes

Extraordinary things are always hiding in places people never think to look.

You don’t need water to feel like you’re drowning, do you?

Jodi Picoult (born 1966) is an American writer, who has published over two dozen novels as well as short stories.

Serving Jesus

From Galatians 4:4-5:  “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, in order to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as children.”

Wandering, undisciplined

Enslaved to darkness of sin

Unlikely heirs of God’s kingdom

Seeking Jesus, Scripture’s linchpin

 

Flaunting rebellious spirit

Indifferent to God’s Word

Fallible, filled with weakness

Finding Jesus, redemption stirred

 

Warming frozen hearts with grace

Light rising from blood-stained tree

Adopted as God’s children

Choosing Jesus, forever free

 

Breaking loose from evil’s chains

Deliverance, God’s design

Forgiven, more disciplined

Praising Jesus, mercy divine

 

Proclaiming Gospel’s viewpoint

Epiphany of God’s joy

Disciples, called to follow

Serving Jesus, mission deploys

From 1 John 1:7:  “But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”
