SUBMISSION
A child just turned a woman, became the chosen one, To hold the Son of God within – to be her firstborn Son, She wasn’t someone special – a lowly servant girl, But God had special plans for her and … Continue reading
IT IS OUR CHOICE
We cannot change our heritage, or the color of our skin, We can’t determine what we’ll be on the day that life begins, When we are born our souls live too, but we’ve not yet seen our God, Our genes … Continue reading

THINGS ARE LOOKING UP
Sunlight trickles through slightly skeletal branches, Giving way to glistening dew drops,, Like a scattering of diamonds across the open expanse, As the sun rises to full height, it dispenses all its light and beauty for our pleasure, Each … Continue reading
