LIFE OUT OF ASHES

POETRY BY KATHY BOECHER©

There are places we simply crave to be,

Serene, comfortable places where we can find solitude,

Tightly clinging to the quietness of alone time,

Away from the clamor of everyday life,

Isolated, apart from others, in your own little world,

Yet we are never completely alone,

We may be steering the ship, but God is guiding the way,

We may think we’ve got it all under control,

Until we hit a bump and capsize,

Gasping for air,

Pleading for salvation,

Longing to live, just one more day,

One more hour,

One more minute,

God holds us in the palm of His mighty hand,

He will never let us go,

He is there, setting the boat aright,

Keeping us alive,

Breathing air into our dying lungs,

So that we will surrender to Him,

He is our perfect Father,

He will see us through trials and tribulation,

He will rejoice with us during times of joy and celebration,

He will watch over us for the rest of our living,

And welcome us into His home,

Where we will live a perfect life forever.

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.
