To Know as we are Known
There is a time coming when our capacity will be expanded sufficiently to behold the fulness of His glory. What a day that will be, when my Jesus I shall see.
Glimpse
Sometimes it takes just a glimpse of ourselves to realize we haven't got what it takes to save ourselves. We need a Saviour and Jesus is ready to save the one who comes on His terms.
When we Get to Where We're Going
Life is seldom a straight path to our desired destination. More than likely we find it an unpredictable winding path. We may question how the road leads home but we should never doubt the navigator of our souls. He will be a sure guide if we believe.
Wherever you Go
We can't escape ourselves. Wherever we go, we take ourselves along. The Lord changing the heart and who we are is always better than simply a change of where we are.
The Messiah Convention
I wonder how often my views will turn out as only partially true. Glad for God's mercy and truth eventually made clear. This poem explores the differing views held around the promised Messiah's arrival. Written in limerick form.
