Katherine Walden Quote

I know I can’t do a thing to earn my salvation; but now that I am His, I will do everything in my power to show Him how much I love Him–and I live to please the One I love who has transformed me with His love.

From Ephesians 4:21-24: “For surely you have heard about Him and were taught in Him, as truth is in Jesus, to put away your former way of life, your old self, corrupt and deluded by its lusts, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to clothe yourselves with the new self, created according to the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.”

Katherine Walden is an American Christian writer.

Monday Memories: Nourishing Spirit

Photo by Zetong Li on Pexels.com

Nature lives forever

By her Creator’s hand

Nourishing spirit guides

 

Sunrise greeting each day

Life revolves ‘round her grace

Lighting earthly journey

 

Gentle winds bring comfort

Music from nature’s band

Breathing with its rhythm

 

Grassy plains stretching far

Lofty mountains border

Sharing abounding life

 

Beauty arrives by air

Birds of many colors

Singing nature’s chorus

 

Majestic trees arise

Redwoods reaching heavens

Scaling fate’s boldest heights

 

Creator’s view from clouds

Seeing creatures below

Serving nature’s purpose

 

Rivers ever flowing

Dogged spirit guiding

Reaching each shining sea

 

God’s time always endures

Creation spawns nature

Breathing, living, endless

Christ’s Victory

From Psalm 90:1-2: “Lord, You have been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth or ever You had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God.”

With each passing day
Our Father’s blessed Word
Offering faith’s dwelling place
Mankind’s righteousness shall be stirred

From distant mountains
Echoes of prophets past
Everlasting in faith’s heart
Yesterday’s breath arrives at last

Shards of light descend
Morning’s grace at sunrise
Enlisting heavenly peace
Attention to Calvary’s prize

Life in risen Christ
Darkness forever fades
Forgiving man’s trespasses
His mercy ready to cascade

Eternity breathes
Filled with His steadfast love
Witnessing Christ’s victory
Father’s glory fulfilled above
