Words of comfort
of hope, of truth;
the promises of God
written in meter and verse
God telling us something
in each of the scriptures;
something to hold onto
to change our lives
Words on her door
the canon of the Bible;
offered daily
to remind of us You
Holy scripture
down through the ages;
speaking then as now
if we listen to the Word of
God

In the fire of problems
passage of scripture, Romans 5:3-4 (Common English Bible)
posted to Ruth’s office door
(and not like Martin Luther’s 95 Theses
nailed to the Wittenburg church door- smile)
“But not only
that! We even take pride in our problems,
because we know that trouble produces endurance,
endurance produces character, and character produces
hope.”

earlier poem today:
---------------------
Sensing Your
Presence
Liberated, at
peace
even in the storms
gathering myself
up
to cleave to you
oh Lord
Sensing your
presence
with me, affirming
my words
grounding me in
the love of God
as I go about my
day
Right beside me
Lord
you are so good to
me
reminding me of
your loving grace
bringing me close
to thee
