“By awesome deeds you answer us with righteousness, O God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas”. Psalms 65:5 ESV
When things are not going your way And you are feeling blue Turn to the Author of the day And claim His love so true
For no one else ever cared so much To sacrifice everything for you Find comfort in the Savior’s touch He will guide you through
Life’s constant turmoil Darkness at every turn He is the Light of the world Give Him every burden and concern
For He has carried more than we know To atone for all our sins Repent and let your pride go Give everything to Him
Christ Jesus wants to heal your heart This no one else can do For He knew you from the very start Let His peace and grace flow over you
I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager, but it wasn’t until a few of years ago that my writing became more spiritual and at the same time more prolific. As I shared my poetry with my wife, Hannah, and a few good friends, they encouraged me to place the poems in book form. My first book endeavor was “Because Of Him”, published in 2017. After hearing Sammy Murimi, the director of Share International Inc., speak at our church, I decided that the proceeds from that book would be donated to Share.
In 2018, Hannah and I were privileged to go to Turkanaland in Kenya on a mission trip with Share. It was a life-changing experience for us both. Some of the inspiration from that trip is expressed in my second book, “His Cup Pours Out”. I include scripture verses with my poems because most of the poems I have written were inspired by reading God’s Word. I hope that as you visit this blog, you will meditate on the scripture verses and write down your prayers and thoughts for the week. My goal for this project has always been that God would be glorified!
