About Arrow

Hi and welcome! My pen name is Arrow. The word “arrow” intrigues me because it has two meanings that describe my passions. One, it is an instrument used intentionally to reach a target, and two, it shows the way. As a believer and follower of Jesus Christ, my goals are to live for Him, lead others to Him, and glorify the Heavenly Father. I pray that the stories, poems, song lyrics, and devotional thoughts I share on this website will always be inspired by the Holy Spirit and aligned with the truths found in God’s Word. My hope is that the words may penetrate your heart and point the way to a closer relationship with the Savior. I look forward to sharing my journey with you. Experiencing what God has in store is bound to be exciting! May you be blessed! ~ Arrow

Don’t Miss an Opportunity

Posted on January 3, 2024 by Arrow

Don’t you just hate it when you miss a great opportunity? Maybe you hear about an event too late, circumstances mess up your plans, or you ‘chicken out’. I love the story of Bartimaeus. As a blind man, he supported … Continue reading →
