Each Tomorrow

Posted on March 30, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

From Hebrews 11:1-3: “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Indeed, by faith our ancestors received approval. By faith we understand that the worlds were prepared by the word of God, so that what is seen was made from things that are not visible.”

Faith in future unseen

Trusting God’s divine Word

Tasting His every truth

Steps taken, hope conferred

Faith finds each tomorrow

Hearing Shepherd’s firm voice

Welcoming hope with love

Peace filling every choice

Faith follows righteous path

Holding hope’s precious grace

According to God’s plan

Enemy gives up chase

Faith moving beyond fear

Finding mercy’s new light

Grasping Savior’s fresh rope

Hope shines forever bright

Faith offers endless joy

Returning to God’s home

Praising as One Body

Destined hope freely roams

From Psalm 23:6: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord my whole life long.”

Salvation’s Key

Posted on March 5, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

From Joel 2:12-13: “Yet even now, says the Lord, return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning; rend your hearts and not your clothing. Return to the Lord your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from punishment.”

Earth quakes, full of darkness

Wilderness surrounds thee

Wayward steps, no escape

Misplacing salvation’s key

Hope dwells in empty faith

Where is God’s gracious love?

Enemy’s fire burns bright

Obscuring Spirit above

Each transgression concealed

Yet, God views every one

Righteous breath covers land

Offering grace to outrun

Heart fills with repentance

Every sin be confessed

God’s forgiveness shall come

Redeeming faith’s final quest

Christ waits at Calvary

Hidden in faith’s Good News

Hope’s new pathway of peace

Offering love to infuse

From Proverbs 28:13: “No one who conceals transgressions will prosper, but one who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.”

Coming to faith’s crossroads

Two unique trails offer choice

Trusting selves to wilderness

Or, following God’s voice

Like tree planted with grace

Waters nourish every root

Filling with life, staying green

Bearing always rich fruit

Sustained through steadfast trust

Even when darkness brings drought

Sustaining each righteous breath

Finding God’s faithful sprouts

Sunrise at Calvary

Resurrection’s risen hope

Witnessing His empty tomb

Grasping Christ’s promised rope

From 1 Corinthians 15:20-22: “But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have died. For since death came through a human, the resurrection of the dead has also come through a human, for as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ.”

Monday Memories: Finding New Life

Posted on February 24, 2025 by bigskybuckeye

From 2 Corinthians 11:13-14: “For such boasters are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. And no wonder! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.”

Facing life’s harshest trials

Walking uphill in shadows

Keeping on the proper trail

Coveting greener meadows

Suffering darkest ordeals

Praying for divine advice

Listening for God’s response

Willing to pay any price

Hiding off the path, waiting

Offering cunning, false hope

Sliding into Satan’s net

Reaching up for rescue’s rope

Clutching God’s forgiving hand

Leaving the enemy’s grip

Finding new life with the Lord

Walking in His fellowship

From Romans 6:22-23: “But now that you have been freed from sin and enslaved to God, the advantage you get is sanctification. The end is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
