Writing and God go hand in hand for me. I love inspiring others through writing to reach to a higher confidence in their faith walk. I hope my writing encourages you. I also love movies, vinyl, dancing, and I have fondness for dogs and mint chocolate.

Save the Best for Last


It’s not about perfection but about faith 

God is saving the best for last 

In the wedding feast

We will be drinking His wine 

Made from the finest of grapes

When we sit down 

And look at His crown

We will truly understand these new times

Fear is a absence of trust

It’s like walking on broken glass

He wants to restore

Our hearts of splinters 

That have been gathering dust

When we look into His dynamic eyes

We will truly understand why we are alive

A new dawn is upon us from our previous winters

A Celestial Romance of a Man and Woman 

It’s ok to wear your heart on your sleeve 

You better believe 

If the stars reflect in your eyes

I’ll take note

Your strong shoulders keep me afloat

I love you 

Some days I can’t go on

Waiting for a new dawn

This new era

Makes me fear ya

I don’t know my position 

I try to follow my intuition 

But when the stars come out

I lose all sense of doubt

I see those eyes reflecting 

And it’s like a supernatural directing 

I am mesmerized with you

I am no longer distracted

I love you

The stars in both pupils are attracted

The stars of harmony 

In a dark world of uncertainty 

Unite under a new constellation

And divine romance of planetary rotation 

If I am the moon, you are the sun

Blaze your rays of liquid love one by one

If our love will lasts beyond time and dates 

My heart will still be yours when earth fades

Memories

I am looking a photo you sent me for Christmas

With your smile and behind you a wreath

I am thinking of you

Do you scroll through your photos

And do the same thing?

And sometimes I think of memories

Of you and us hanging out

I am thinking of you

Do you reflect on our memories together?

And smile at the thought of our connection?

I expect you to have your freedom without me

But it hurts when you are not around

Are you hurt when I am not around?

Or are you so busy that I don’t cross your mind?

Loving Guidance

Reflective 

On life

Directive

To get it right

Every day 

Is a chance to grow 

Will take the initiative 

To fully live?

Sometimes it’s hard

But I haven’t given up

Sounds like a Hallmark card

But I go each step

Pain

In my world

Going insane

I will stay bold

The Bible 

Is full of wisdom

Will I take it in?

And confess every sin?

I am making progress

I see it in His eyes

Life starts to make sense

When I feel His loving guidance 

God is Friend, Mentor and Father

Father, You are my friend 

When I am lonely

When little exchanges 

Happen between people

I can go to the steeple

And can talk to You for hours

Father, You are my mentor

When I am uncertain

When different paths

Come between us

With signs covered in dust 

Your light shows me the way

Father, You are my Father

When I am afraid

When darkness comes in

And makes me stumble & shake 

You exile the snake

And remind me of our love

You are friend, mentor and Father

Yes, You are all these things 

You are with me now 

And forever more

Blessed are spirits that are poor

They shall see God

You have walked in shoes

When my identity is misplaced

When sin crepes back in

When I worry my life away

You tell me it’s going to be ok

I love Your heart towards me

So sincere and pure

How can I ever repay You?

How can I touch Your very heart?

Thanks for generous love you impart
