Nature’s rendezvous
Tasting every breath of grace—
Tomorrow can wait
Morning peace gathers
Hiking on destiny’s trails—
Close to Creator
Joining for breakfast
Coffee plus conversation—
Life “over easy”

Choices are the hinges of destiny.
For all your ways, prepare. And meet them ever alike: when you are the anvil, bear; when you are the hammer, strike.
Edwin Markham (1852-1940) was an American poet. One of his most read poems was “The Man with the Hoe,” which shed light on the exploitation of poor laborers.
From Hebrews 11:6: “And without faith it is impossible to please God, for whoever would approach Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.”
Living without faith
Never pleasing to God
Scripture grows musty
Seeing life as a fraud
Lacking true knowledge
Missing God’s living Word
Whole heart feels empty
Running with the wrong herd
Callous attitude
Faith absent, lonesome walk
Mind unbelieving
AWOL from Shepherd’s flock
Holy Trinity
Faith’s long forgotten light
Father, Son, Spirit
Blessed angels take flight
From Proverbs 3:5: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight.”

God carries your picture in His wallet.

Tony Campolo (1935-2024) was an American sociologist, pastor, and Christian author.
From John 14:23-24: “Jesus answered him, ‘Those who love me will keep My word, and My Father will love them, and We will come to them and make Our home with them. Whoever does not love Me does not keep My words, and the word that you hear is not Mine but is from the Father who sent Me.”
Called to daily worship
Time spent with Father’s Word
Sharing insight about life
His light no longer blurred
Worry replaced by faith
Closeness to Father’s voice
Praising every morning’s peace
His grace offers thee choice
Earthly things mean little
Truth found in Father’s Word
Seeking treasure in Heaven
His mercy freshly stirred
Wisdom gains its foothold
Nourished from Father’s voice
Understanding life’s purpose
His promises rejoice
From Psalm 18:13: “The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered His voice.”
