The day has dawned, the sun is shining,And on God’s Word I’ve now been dining –An open letter to His people,To those who are, in truth, His pupils. The Word of God tells us a story.His words to us, they’re for His glory.They teach us how we’re to live for Christ,How for our sins Jesus … Continue reading So We Live For Him

Storms are Coming
Storms are coming, raging down,So be careful you don’t drown.Night is falling, darkness grim,Evil lurking on the brim. Enemies chanting, “We will win!”They are walking on ice thin.Rulers lurking, caught in sin,They are living on a whim. Crazy! Crazy! Don’t be lazy,So much now it is so hazy.They tell their stories, make no sense,Feels like … Continue reading Storms are Coming
