Steadfast

Unwavering

Holding fast Scriptures’ truth

Yielding not to vain dogmas’ threats…

But his death, 
Jesus
Opened a new life,
A life-giving way 
For all through ascertain curtain
Into the holiest place, 
a sacred space. 
Jesus-
 in the Holy Place
 Jesus is the sacred space.

Yesterday
Jesus took away
Pain, she had to stay
Indoors. "Ok, Let us pray" -
Then take fresh ginger tea-Y!
Before supper, all mended away
Jesus will do miracles even today
As he did every yesterday, if we pray
Hebrews 13:5 (Who He Is) jokes away:
He brews, so hubby makes tea each day?...

as some are in the habit of doing,
but let us encourage one another… 

Hebrews 10:25

Gathering of Senior Saints

arms open wide in a churchwide luncheon…
          as many still hide at home,
     heaven exists on earth

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see.

Hebrews 11:6

NO EXPLANATION

strips of beef in bowl
observable upon departure
from a family dinner

return to the scene
leftovers had disappeared
zip..zap..gone

no explanation 
except if you believe
the dog ate it

Never leaving* us, assuring His presence

along our transformation by divine compassionate persistence…

Faith*

seeks God

pleasing Him

thru His precepts

which assure His grace;

despite despair…

vanquishing, 

shutting

doubts!

*Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Radiant
   Resplendent
Brilliant is he
   When spoke of Jesus
From Hebrews 1:3

The Son is the radiant 
   glory of God, 
and the visible expression 
   of his true character. 

He sustains everything 
   by his powerful command. 

When he had provided cleansing 
  for sin 
he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty 
  in heaven....

My life I sometimes liken to a rising sun,
Once bright and new,both being as one.

Then came days that just whispered by,
Causing me to question, not knowing why?

After time pursuing rainbows was spent,
The sun just kept rising and on life went.

Enduring mid-day heat after giving my best,
I'll face final sunset and appointed rest.*

Reading a few chapters from the Book of Hebrews last evening
Perfectly content feeling the Spirit, in softly spoken words; piercing
The brisk translucent wind; two-edged sword remembering Nicodemus
Shiloh, surely water as bread ? Entering this temple it's Holy; tranquil prayers
Borne their images lingering pages covered of kisses; gently yet bold, Love's child....

Heaven views
triumphant voyage 
providentially blest...

Along tranquil service
