You are worthy of my trust, my complete trust. You are worthy of my confidence, my complete confidence. I have nothing, nothing I can give; but I ask you today, this day, please help me to live. Not in my former ways, trusting no one-least of all my self Not in what I can’t or can do based on poverty or wealth. Yet, in humble submission to what I can’t see for only you comprehend all I can be. I stumble too often on what others say Too often satisfied with having my own way Both of us know where these struggles lead so more of you, less of me is what I do plead. All things are possible with you I believe, beyond what my mind can fully conceive. You’ve never deceived your chosen ones, by grace and faithfulness, each battle’s been won- Let me continue this race, wholly trusting your Son, not in others nor self, but in what you have done, not in others, myself- only in what you have done.

As Mother’s Day approaches this year, I am finding I’m not ready to celebrate.
As we approach the six month mark of my mom’s passing, I find myself feeling a plethora of unanticipated emotions. The fact is I am just not ready to have a Happy Mother’s Day.

A morning poetic offering as it came this morning. May God be able to speak into the hard places of our hearts that our wills be conformed to His.
Amen.

May I Have a Word?
It’s the Monday after Easter and I wonder how you, dear reader, friend, fellow sojourner- are doing? Have Easter celebrations left you inspired or do you feel a bit wrung out of faith in the season you find yourself?
Well, I hope you will be encouraged in the knowledge that, regardless of where you think you’re standing, Jesus is able to keep you in all of the seasons you pass through. Our faithful Lord will not leave you high and dry, nor will he hang you out to dry if your faith feels like a big giant fail! He loves you the same whether you’re smiling or full of sadness, whether you’re hopeful, or fearful. Rest in this truth and lean on Him, who is always faithful. Be strengthened in His faithfulness!
