Sacred Space(s)



SACRED SPACE(S)

I find it in the now.
I find it in the how.
I find it in the mercy of the moment saying, "Wow!"
I find it in the "Cease!"
I find it in release.
I find it in the only One who always grants me peace.
I find it in the trees,
I find it in the breeze, 
The whispered breath of life
Which soothes my every strife.
I find it in the why
When laugh, I do, or cry.
I find it in the love
Which calls me from above.

Sacred spaces
Found in all my places!

Be Careful!



Be Careful!

Where you walk
When you talk
What you seek
How you speak
Knowing one
Needing none
Because, He is
And, He is there.

Be careful!

Where you go
What you know
What you choose
What you lose
Knowing one
Needing none
Because, He is
And, He is there.

Be careful!

Hearts are broken
By words spoken
Never healed 
Unless, you yield
To knowing one
Needing none
Because He is
And, He is there.

Be careful!

For child within
Who longs to trim
The vagrant whim
Without Him.
Unless you yield
To knowing one
Needing none
But He.

Why Cry?



Why cry?  You should be laughing!
These tears are not your style.
Why mourn?  You should be singing!
You face adorned by smile.

Why cry?  My heart is heavy.
I'm far away from home.
My soul seeks quiet solace
And, I feel so all alone.

Why cry?  The sun is rising!
The darkness is no more.
A brand new day to promise
Something better than before!

Why cry?  My heart is aching.
Tears are all I know.
If there's a silver lining,
My clouds won't let it show.


Dry your eyes!  Tears kept!
Let it flow . . . Jesus wept.
