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

The Rooster Crowed

Posted on February 7, 2017 by Arrow

And then, the rooster crowed!
And Jesus turned
And I remembered
His every word
He looked straight at me
Heart to broken heart
Could He use me now?
Had I gone too far? Continue reading →

Satisfied

Satisfied ‘cause You are with me
Satisfied ‘cause You are here
Satisfied, You know the answer
Satisfied, You conquer every fear

Satisified, no need to worry
Satisfied, no need to doubt
Satisfied that when I stumble
Satisfied You’ll help me out Continue reading →

Boundaries

Posted on December 30, 2016 by Arrow

That’s too far
That’s too much
Not that kiss
Not that touch
Striving to live
A life that is pure
She’s waiting for him
And he’s waiting for her Continue reading →

Prayer for America ~ 2016

Posted on November 12, 2016 by Arrow

Lord, we plead for our nation
Praying that You would intervene
That You would send peace and calmness
Where there is anger and rage
That You would send patience and hope
Where there is impulsiveness and fear
That You would touch and soften the hearts of people
Who have hardened their hearts toward You and others
That You would open our eyes, ears, and minds
To see, hear, and help those who are in need
To stop focusing on ourselves and reach out to our neighbors
To speak words of encouragement rather than criticism
And replace name-calling and rebellion with grace and love Continue reading →

You alone can make me whole

You, You touch and heal my heart
Abba Father, that’s who You are
Giving life and breath to me
Holy Spirit set me free

Posted on October 25, 2016 by Arrow

For everyone fails
And everyone hurts
Our struggles continue
Under the curse

I need to let go
And focus on good
Remember to love
And forgive as I should

True: God’s Plan of Salvation

Posted on April 19, 2016 by Arrow

God’s plan to save mankind was to send His one and only Son, Jesus. Remember, God wanted a relationship with us, but sin caused us to be separated from God. Therefore, God lovingly made a way for that great chasm to be bridged. Jesus left Heaven, came to earth, and lived a perfect life, never giving in to the temptation of sin. He accepted the punishment of death for all mankind. He was the perfect sacrifice necessary for our salvation. Luke 19:10 states Jesus’ purpose for coming: “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” (That’s you and me!) Our salvation is a free gift, paid for in full by Jesus.

True: God Is Holy and We Are Sinners

Posted on April 19, 2016 by Arrow

If only God is holy, what does that mean for us? How can we ever have a relationship with Him and eventually join Him in His amazing new heaven and earth? The good news is “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16) And “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23) Continue reading →

True: God Seeks and Invites All

Posted on April 18, 2016 by Arrow

The compassionate shepherd leaves his other ninety-nine sheep in safety to seek the one that wandered off. When he finds it, he rejoices! These parables demonstrate God’s great love for us, all of us, those who have not chosen to believe as well as those who believe but have wandered off. Jesus is the shepherd who searches for you, to bring you into His loving arms and rejoice over you! Continue reading →
