A little seed
Becomes a tree
If circumstances
Agree
A child’s heart
Is precious soil
Fertile
To all kinds of plantings
Do we pretend
Death is a game
Or extortion
Mere fun?
Darkness appears
As light
And when received
It will grow branches
Free Gift
(New Year)
The old has passed
The new has come
Filled with opportunities
You sowed with tears
You will reap with joy
Every day will have new mercies
Let hope not die
Though darkness tries
To invade your wounded soul
The cross of Christ
Where He laid down his life
Is still the salvation of the world
Hide under My wings
Take refuge with the Most High
I AM your shelter
Trust without fear
Love your God
Let My words abide inside
Spend time with Me
Rest in My arms
Until My love heals every pain
Until you can see
Clearly again
That I AM all you need
I took the heat
In your stead
If only you would come to Me
Read here how to hide: Soaking
Goodwill
A tiny little baby
Born in a filthy stable
I doubt it was magical
But what if this baby was God
In human frame
I think the animals still stank
It was the perfect picture
Of a holy God
Entering a tainted world
The magic was the revelation
Of a God that cared
Enough to become a child
A God that is accessible
A God that is kind
A God that became a man
He identified with all our troubles
He did not shy away from them
Not even from our hostility
He reconciled us to himself
He paid the sacrifice this reunion required
He said “Behold, I AM THE LAMB”
Excitement unattainable
Was bubbling up inside
When I was suffering
Unimaginable pain
The darkness was overwhelming
The pressure of the sin of the whole world
Yet thinking about you brought me light
The joy I knew would be the result
You are My reward
You gave me strength to endure
You are my price
Will you give me what I died for?
Will you give me your heart?
Every part of your life?
Will you give me your devotion?
As I gave mine to you
You can’t pay me back
That’s not what I’m asking for
But will you respond
And be mine like I am yours
Before I made my appearance
On planet earth
Bringing joy
To those who would receive
Bringing hope
To a dark world
Holding a promise
Of life restored
I was hidden
For nine months
Being woven
Intricately
Invisible to everyone else
You saw my every form
How it developed
According to your blueprint
You did not rush
To create me
You took the time
A delicate creation requires
Then you introduced me
To my family
And many other people
All whom I would meet
I was a gift to them
As they were to me
I am a gift still
For meetings yet to be
Hope
In desperate hearts
Light
In dark souls
Healing
In broken lives
Restoration
In all the earth
Origin of life
Source of our being
Strength of all
That have breath inside
Merciful Being
Father of kindness
Never abandoning
Longing to abide
With criminals and slanderers
All sinners alike
The haughty and mighty
People full of pride
Creator of the universe
Creator of men
Creator of mercy
The creating I AM
Sending his Son
To pay the debt that we owned
Releasing our guilt
So we could soar again

Finally
Your mission ended
You saved the world
That is, all who would receive
Finally
You went home
To be with your Father
Receiving a long awaited welcoming
Finally
You would send down your Spirit
To live inside of men
Empowering us to be just like you
Finally
Your bride, those that love you
Would make herself ready
Preparing for the great day
Taking baths of oil
Soaking in your love
Abiding in your presence
Removing other gods
And now we are almost ready
For another outpouring
The promised last rain
Removing our last stain
Then we will be clothed
In radiant white
We will show the world
That You are full of light
Darkness will tremble
Injustice has to bow
To the King of the universe
And his wife
They will work together
Forever side by side
Permanently united
Perfectly intertwined
PS: Are you his bride?
