Original art by Paul T. Boecher©
Through the cobwebs of existence – through the darkness of our strife –
Through the dankness of our sinfulness and wickedness of life
Through the deepest, darkest pits of hell and the helplessness we feel –
Comes a single beam of light from heaven our sinful hearts to heal.
The light grows stronger as we move to get a closer glance,
But as we reach to touch it, we’re enveloped in a trance.
It’s just within our reach we think, but no matter how we try,
We can’t escape the darkness that consumes us from all sides.
Just when we think that all is lost and relinquish every hope,
The light erases darkness and through it we can cope.
This little light from Bethlehem became a brilliant Star
That came to earth to save the world from sin’s most deadly scar.
He came in darkness of the night, but His brilliance cannot hide.
We are redeemed by His great might. Hes always at our side.

About atimetoshare.me
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
