The day after Christmas, Scott took us out for breakfast (except for Kyle: he was tired). As we sat down, the waitress came over to help us. She was very nice, and right off the bat, I found out a lot about her. Continue reading

“Precious Life”
a laugh
a giggle

“Fairy Tales”
there comes a point in time
when love becomes a choice
choosing to listen
instead of ignore
choosing to obey
instead of fall away
choosing to be present
instead of online
choosing to love well
instead of waiting
to be swept off your feet
to be rescued
to be wooed by a feeling
the glass slipper may never fit
but that shouldn’t stop love
there’s a bigger picture
where choosing love
brings definition
“One in Millions”
the inner course
of sex
has its way
of taking a chance
with conception
it doesn’t wait to see
if the couple is in love
it doesn’t wait to see
if they’re married
it doesn’t wait to see
what their dreams are
no
this chance takes
a risk
without asking
maybe leaving one
with a choice
to keep it
or not
there’s an easy way out
thinking of self
and no one else
but it’s the harder way
a decision to bring forth life
or cause death
a chance to promote destiny
or distinguish it
a wait in the mind
a weight in the heart
who will win
“Adoption”
thank you should never have to be spoken
it should be seen
through your life
through your actions
through the way you love
Him
yourself
and everyone else
“No Strings Attached”
God didn’t give me a story
He gave me a life
“I” chose the story
the words
the sentences
the punctuation
the paragraphs
the chapters
my actions gave Him the titles
my reactions made up the turmoil
the plot
the climax
at the end of my story
I met Him
which left the door open
for a whole new series
about His story
played out through me
“Tip Toes”
my life poured out
in a dance
for all to see
or look away
each word
a motion
each move
emotion Continue reading
De-muddled
Yesterday, I spent a good part of the day devouring one scripture. It’s about reckoning yourself dead to sin and alive to Christ; if this is true (which it is), then why do many in the church refer to themselves as “sinners?” This is a question not meant to be answered. It’s merely there to make a point.
On more than one occasion, Continue reading
