“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.” John 14:1-4 ESV
There is a bridge to a heavenly cathedral Where the Son of Man reigns forevermore He prepared this holy place apart for us to dwell Leading the way from each repentant heart’s door
This God’s merciful plan from the very beginning To redeem us for eternity to the praise of his glory Crushing the dire consequence of our sinning By his Son’s requisite death on Calvary’s cruel tree
Then Christ arose by an awesomely powerful love Our thirsty souls satisfied only by this Living Water So take up your cross daily until he calls you from above For serving our Lord and Savior is all that will truly matter!
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!
