These words of prayer…

/ jill autrey dorman

The bowels of the earth are thundering.

There is no longer safety in the past. There never was.

These words of prayer are for God. I know they please Him.

“…on earth as it is in heaven…”

There is only strength to take one moment at a time.

“…give us this day our daily bread…

We have been caught unaware of fragility like a vapor in the mist.

My shield of Faith feels like a furnace because all the earth is on fire and no water to be found.

Yet I am keenly aware of the scent of flowers, grass, and dirt.

“… deliver us from evil…”

…for thine is the glory forever and ever…”

God does not slumber. Jesus is Risen. His Love never fails.

Amen.

What Shadows Our Steps

her grey eyes so clear and intelligent

the unforeseeable future shadows our steps

her heart bleeds because others cannot see

the vast dark storm that will soon split the world in two

her ears hear the masses humming along

so immersed in their own lives that they are blinded

because she is old they do not listen

in the name of God receive the Salvation of Jesus

while you still can!

In such as the Babel of languages…

In such as the Bable of languages,

some try to build a tower to become gods.

All of their words have lost meaning,

where their hearts have become heinous and sad.

Now a World of degradation and hunger,

where inhuman indifference pass for compassion.

But Jesus had something more than just words,

His life and Truth infinitely more valuable.

Did you like the snow

Did you like the snow when you were here or





when the harvest moon filled the atmosphere?





What about the summer sea





when you walked in Galilee?










I can see you everywhere I go





in the moon light and the snow





I see you by the summer sea





walking on the water you rescued me.

    I dreamed I was flying, the sole purveyor of the spectacular beauty below
    




    with my Eagle eyes I could see exactly where to go
    




    I flew over the spines of breathtaking mountains and white capped oceans vast
    




    Flying up to the High Heavens all the galaxies in my path
    




    while the gold dust of the stars showered me like rain

    A sunbeam shining on my day
    

    Summer was a Play time
    

    Oh heal your wild wing and fly…
    

     
    

    Trust is the healing balm
    

    healing time has come 
    

    deep indigo Summer dreams come alive…
    

     
    

    A moonbeam to dance upon
    

    Summer is a silver silhouette
    

    Oh head your wild wing and fly…

    I am breathing underwater and not wondering how 
    




    I am praying to be rescued but not sure if the time is now
    




    




    Gravity feels heavier than it use to but in the water I am weightless
    




    I can no longer hear the angry world and could not care less
    




    




    You are so close  I can hear but not touch you
    




    You are The Holy One well acquainted with Truth

    Confusion has a cost
    




    Like skimming off the dross
    




    It all goes swirling down a drain
    




    Leaving oily globs of pain.
    




    The Trojan horse is chaos
    




    Now enters your thoughts
    




    The battles swarm like bees
    




    The Word of God cannot be defeated.
    




    Take heart
    




    Because you are not crazy
    




    You are a warrior
    




    The Battle is the Lord’s.
    




    So, listen for the sounds of spring
    




    Listen for the bells of victory
    




    You will take flight on His Wings
    




    Let your praises ring!
    




    Take heart
    




    Because you are not crazy
    




    You are a warrior
    




    The Battle is the Lord’s
