Pray for the Persecuted

For those being persecuted
I whisper a prayer
Almighty Lord, You know
Who, when and where
Your precious ones lie
Behind bolted doors
They stand up for Jesus
In spiritual wars Continue reading

The Whisper

I heard the whisper
In my spirit, it felt wrong
But then the world echoed It louder and long

And louder and louder
And louder, it rang
Bombarding my mind Invading my space

Transforming my thinking,
Attacking my mind
Encouraging me to leave What I valued behind

The battle raged on Between Truth, between lie
Between what my heart taught
Between wrong, between right

Why?!

Why is this happening?
Why won’t that end?
Why am I not
Being blessed like my friend?
Why won’t things go right?
Why can’t I get a break?
Why such pain and sadness?
Why all this heartache? Continue reading

The Depth

Oh, the depth of the riches
Of the wisdom and knowledge of God!

How unsearchable His judgments,
And His paths beyond tracing out!

Who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been His counselor?
Who has ever given to God,
That God should repay him, repay him?

Sing Me a Lullaby

La, la, la, lullaby
Hums my imagination
Notes beyond my wildest dreams
Sung by the God of all creation

La, la, la, lullaby
Blanketed in love
Quieted by the Comforter
Singing from above

You know I need help, Lord
Your strength to endure

My Daddy

I know my “Daddy” loves me
I know my “Daddy” cares
I know He shares my joy and pain
He listens to my prayers
He waits for me with open arms
And knows just where to start
He touches me so tenderly
And heals my broken heart Continue reading

Just As They Had Been Told

Born of a woman, offspring of Abraham (Gen. 3:15; 18:18)
Star out of Jacob, from Judah, a Lamb (Num. 24:17; Gen. 49:10)
Born in Bethlehem of Judea so small (Mic. 5:2)
Born of a virgin, the Lord of all (Isa. 7:14)
These were words of the prophets so distinctive, so bold
Yet the people seemed blinded, deafened, and cold
They had not understood the prophecies of old
And now, all had happened – just as they had been told Continue reading

Every Life

Every life, a precious gift
Every life, a hope
For one to rise and do great things
And choose the narrow road
Every life, woven by God
A life, whether long or short
Every life within the womb
A babe, not to abort! Continue reading
