 *Excerpt from They Call Me Faith

Designed To Worship

When I think about the goodness of the Lord I am overwhelmed. Throughout the beginning of time He thought of me and knitted me with every spoken word. Words that could have pierced my heart and left me broken and alone; instead he chose to send His son and transform us to victory. Words of wisdom that passes all understanding is He. Many gentle moments that are between my Lord and I, creating intimacy, capturing the essence of who He is and my own identity. Created in His image a reflection of perfection am I. Can it be that my inner most thoughts can move my Lord to tears? Will He embrace my praise and bless this soul who was designed for worship?

" Come, let's shout praises to God, raise the roof for the Rock who saved us! Let's march into his presence singing praises"

 Psalm 95:1-2 (The Message)

It has helped me look through my tough times and look at the positive. I read your poem They Call Me Faith and there is something that just reminds me of some of the things that I have overcome.

A Touch of Peace

*Excerpt from A Touch of Peace

A Touch of Peace

Restless I search for a touch of peace.  But peace is nowhere to be found. Fear and dread keep tearing me apart.  The future becomes a monster that threatens me.  Burdened with the cares of this world I am lost.  No strength to fight back I surrender to hopelessness.  There awaiting my sentence a witness calls my name.  Promises if I would hear all things will change.  That's impossible I say for I have tried my best.  Beams of hope spoken to my inner-being.

Can this peace mean freedom from conflict?  Can this peace mean liberty of the turmoil that haunts me?  Restless I search for a touch of peace.  But peace is nowhere to be found.    Read More
