Well of Grace

Posted on March 16, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

From Colossians 3:1-2: “So if you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on the things that are above, not on the things that are on earth.”

Experiencing God’s grace

Feeling His generous love

Tasting heavenly goodness

New life found in Christ above

Renewing spirit of grace

Casting aside former ways

Escaping darkest trials

Christ’s sunrise erases gray

Drinking from God’s well of grace

Reading His Word, laced with hope

Sharing His righteous message

Faith matures, viewed through Christ’s scope

Embracing truth in God’s grace

Nourishing faith, now rejoice

Sustaining joy with each step

Christ’s glory in risen voice

Harvesting gifts from God’s grace

Setting mind on peace above

Filling heart with blessed hymns

Harmony flows from Christ’s love

Sun’s Rising Reset

Posted on March 13, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

Early morning light

Missing in action

Shrouded in darkness

Each tiny fraction

Heavens open up

Twinkling Milky Way

Lighted gateway beams

Eagerness to play

Midnight comes calling

Harvesting full moon

Nestled with intrigue

Dish capturing Spoon

Gentle breeze waking

Stirring quiet chimes

Composed every night

Harmony’s crisp rhymes

Horizon still sleeps

Casting morning’s net

Awakened at dawn

Sun’s rising reset

Tranquility’s Landscape

Posted on February 27, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

**Cloudy shadows dance upon a Montana summer landscape.**

Creator’s gentleness moves

Ability to reshape

Another day, now embrace

Tranquility’s landscape

Creator’s eternal eye

Hint of tomorrow takes shape

Daily treasures, just embrace

Joyfulness fills landscape

Creator’s vision gathers

No longer covered in tape

Nature’s portrait, soon embrace

Harmony paints landscape

Creator’s elegance breathes

Images fill each dreamscape

Trove of delights, let’s embrace

Time’s patience frames landscape

Creator’s quiet outlook

Peacefulness never escapes

Innocence, always embrace

Silence sketches landscape

**Gentle silence frames another sunset in Ohio.**

Sharpening Each Thought

Winter’s fading breath

Discovering light

One final snowflake

Springtime taking flight

Winter pushed aside

Taking rest once more

Moved from nature’s shelf

Change coming ashore

Time bursting forward

Sharpening each thought

Landscape’s fresh colors

Lessons being taught

Young and old smiling

Finding spring abloom

Nature turns its page

Song fills every room

Daylight grows longer

Feeling warmth each day

April showers come

May flowers will stay

Life’s faithful rhythm

Rising overnight

Harmony fills hearts

Love found at first sight

Faith makes the discords of the present the harmonies of the future.

From Jeremiah 29:11: “For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.”

Robert Collyer (1823-1912) was an English-born pastor. Early in his adult life, he emigrated to the United States and would later resuming preaching after having done so in England.
