In The Arms of My Lord, on Humbled Knees

Aging knees give no regard to hard wood floors. Blowing away dust of yesterday left to unfold….. Nestling into that place where whispers waver and the voice of thunder shouts out His name. And it is here. In this place…..that I finally let go. Here.  Alone. Where questions and reason float from my soul….. Making their […]

When His Shores Are Rest

The beach beckons.  Because indoors can’t contain my soul cry that needs deliverance. And I am lured to the water, as a wanderer through the dessert seeks desperately for life.

When We Run From God

When my son was little, he was a runner. He darted in stores.  Down streets.  And ran with great fever, wherever he went.
