'It takes one to know one', so they do state, but that won't take you far, as we're never told exactly who these 'they' are. 'It's not what you know, it's who you know', so the saying goes, but the devil is in the details, and I say, 'It's what you know about whom you know,' which really goes to show, whomsoever holds...

Habakkuk 1:2
He doesn't answer when I scream Into the dark, into my pillow, Into the hollow between breaths Where prayers rot. Everyone says He listens. But maybe He doesn't listen to girls like me. Maybe I'm the mistake in the plan. The broken thread. The shadow on the altar. They told me He loves the brokenhearted, But He watched when it happened, He watched, and...

To My Children and Grandchildren See The Cross In The Right Way
The Cross is such a simple little thing. The Place of death for Heaven's King! We should give God thanks daily for the Cross. The Alter He sacrificed Jesus on for the lost. He says, "No one does right, we all do wrong!" Death and Hell for eternity is where all belong. We all are guilty, by our own choice. Doing as...

The Cross
The Cross Before I was even born, In blood, you were torn. The road you walked alone was hard to follow. You showed me there is no other way but a narrow road. At the beginning you were a carpenter. You took me by the hand knowing this will last forever. You would stand tall...

Premium Member Cross Currents
Stream gushes on The rocky terrain My boat plunges In the whirlpools’ Spiralling anguish Attrition perpetuates, time to get onto the sail The saviors winsome winds of uplifting solace Sanctum of stratified darkness freezes within Time to paint patina of joy on petals of hope The sky crumbles On sands of time Hues of rainbow Rapture dissolve I drown in the sea Of boundless bliss Enlightened I find In the cross-current The...

The Cross Around Necks
I walk into school with my Bible in my hand, spine soft from use, corners worn like an old friend. I underline the verses that feel like home and scribble in the margins like I’m writing letters to God. People glance over, sometimes with curiosity, sometimes with something colder. They don’t say much to my...

Premium Member Saturday, We Hid
We watched him die, He was nailed up high, Alive for hours, Before the sky turned black; Thunder rolled, Lightning flashed, It is finished, was the cry That came final from his lips; He died, we cried, we ran and hid; He was taken and laid in a tomb, Borrowed from a friend, Laid there,...
