Restless is my mind,
and weary, too.
Eaten up by the things of this world.
But peaceful is the heart of God,
a refuge from the eternal storm
that is the unsatisfied soul of man.
So look not to man for knowledge.
Trust instead an […] Read the rest
Caught
whileing away another day,
along with so many days before.
Wasted, woeful dismay,
me and the days before
gone in a mirage
of things I did and things I didn’t.
Reflections of azure,
beautiful but emptied
hazy horizons in the distance,
distinct […] Read the rest
Coming down like a forty day flood,
depression’s bile is in my blood.
Hammering on my soul like thunder.
Ripping through my mind like lightning
with no sign of clear skies.
Fighting the feeling is useless,
for the storm moves on relentless.
I’m a […] Read the rest
Breath deep.
Wait for inner peace.
Untie the knots.
Forget about it.
It’s just a small part of your small life.
It may seem like an eternity to overcome,
but it’s just a blink of the eye.
Be calm.
Wait for the chaos to […] Read the rest
Sometimes I can just put it out of my mind.
It drops away like the final leaf on a naked tree
leaving me ready to stand against the winter.
A brief coldness that passes like a sharp wind,
and I realize it’s better to bloom than worry
rising out of the sky
through puffs of cotton clouds
are the aspirations of a soaring soul.
undaunted by the pull of earth
into the weightlessness of silent space
where physical constraints no longer take their toll
on a life released.
once burning in a bitter […] Read the rest
what’s going to happen to me?
today.
tomorrow.
in all my possible futures.
what has already happened to me?
yesterday.
the day before.
in all my muddled past.
is it a loose association
or a concrete path?
is my future predestined

God is there,
living and breathing with your every breath.
in the mind of man He dwells.
in the vastness of the universe His seat of power.
in the complexity of nature a delicate touch of His hand.
God is here,
waiting for you with undiminished […] Read the rest
Upon the path are many wonders.
Some I feared.
Some I treasure still.
But most I have forgotten.
Only half way through the journey though
did I find what mattered most.
It joined me early in my walk.
Stayed with me patiently
until […] Read the rest
I was his favorite.
I don’t know why
(well maybe I do),
but I knew.
So, I could not disappoint him.
So, I hid my self from him.
And still I was revealed.
But from God I cannot hide
my weaknesses,
my […] Read the rest
