The haunting things that once were feared
Disappear when God draws near
Waiting in the wings
Desperate to pounce
Doubt and fear must flee
When Christ Jesus is announced

God bless your day, the seagull sings
Reality is what I perceive it to be
Pelicans pose in profile for me
Models for my photography

An Offering Leave a comment
Oh God please fill my pen
With words to offer thee
To bring to You, what would be worthy
Of garnishing Your throne
Your grace, so great, I know
Receive, in love I pray
This offering today

God Never Leaves Leave a comment
When done in by cloud of discontent
Declining, questioning, where You went
Drawn within, discovering, You had not left
Accountability relieved this soul that lay bereft
Pain and pathos almost swept soul bare
Until I woke and found You there
Armored, shining, blinding, bright as sunlit snow
Assured me; You will never go

Keepin’ Peace Leave a comment
I’ve succumb to rest
I am so blessed
Oh God, it’s such a treat
When I thought I lost my phone
My heart didn’t skip a beat
Oh God, dear God
Teach me to keep
This everlasting peace
When I give You my cares
I need to trust
They’re Yours, for good, to keep

Occupational Blessings Leave a comment
I did someone a favor
It turned out to be a gift for me
This is mostly how it always works
Yet I still do get amazed
God is good and that’s all there is
So glad to be in the photo biz ;0)
New Dawn Coming Leave a comment
Thank you God for new day’s moist air
That moves and washes out despair
Your heaven’s wind comes down to shout
Time for darkeness to move out
Dawn’s coming can’t hold back
She gave night a heart attack
Black skies die, reborn anew
Made bright and fresh by morning dew
