THERE IS ONE WHO STICKS CLOSER THAN A BROTHER
Emotions are real and sometimes we find ourselves just wanting God's comfort and nearness. Jesus is always near and we have to realise that. He is closer than a brother.

CREATION THEN - NOT EVOLUTION
The poem seeks to look at various facets of creation in their perfection to show evolution could not have produced such universal order.

LEAVE THE FUTURE WITH YOUR GOD
Being in the will of God is a great blessing in the Christian walk but it is not always easy. We can be taken from the path too often and too easily. People worry about the future but our future is in the Lord's hands.

A SHEPHERD LEFT HIS COMFORT ZONE
The poem developed from a comment a speaker made when teaching on the Lost Sheep. That comment was that the shepherd left his comfort zone to go to meet the sheep’s needs. It was night and it was hard. The shepherd was virtuous, and self-sacrificing.

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD AND KING
This is an acrostic poem. It sets Jesus Christ out as Lord and King in His own realm and then in the Christian's life. I wanted to use bold type for each initial letter but was not able, so I used a space instead.

EXCERPTS FROM CERTAIN PSALMS - Psalm 64
The psalmist was at the receiving end of injustice. He recorded that in this psalm but all scripture was written for our instruction and comfort. This psalm is one pf prayer and faith as the evil purposes of the enemy are explored. Part of a series.

HE IS COMING
So many students of eschatology are realising the Rapture is very close. We are in the last days of the Church age. This poem looks at the coming of the Lord for each of His own. We are in expectation. Poem was written about midnight very quickly.

HIS HANDS, HIS FEET AND HIS BROW
When we see the Saviour, the scars and wounds He has, are the love marks for us. How we love Him who endured the cross for us. This poem looks at what the Lord endured for us so that we in return, ought to be so grateful. Some people reject God's love
