He promised He would give to me,
the things I need each day,
And I believe it in my heart,
each time I kneel to pray.
For when I call upon His Name,
and seek His face in prayer,
Through faith I see the answer is
just waiting for me there.
I may not see the answer now,
But still, I must believe,
For He has never told a lie
and never will deceive.
He gives me everything I need
And even so much more.
My mind just cannot comprehend,
the blessings left in store.
The answered prayer may not be "yes"
or it may not be "no",
And yet, He answers for the best,
because He loves me so.
And He can see beyond this day,
just what is best for me,
So, I must pray, "Thy will be done",
and then wait patiently.

Instead of a prayer request, this is a call for those who speak with the
authority of Christ, to strap on their armor, to call into action, the warring angels
to come, and to help fight against this murderer, who is stalking our streets.
We stand together, mighty and strong, and we claim the power of Our Almighty God,
to take control of this problem, and to drive the enemy out from his hiding place,
into plain view, and we claim the peace, the
strength of our faith, to rise, and make us strong, undefeated, unscathed,
and claim the victory which is ours, by His greatness,
His goodness, and by His might and power.
By Your words, Father, it has been written, and by Thy power,
it shall be done.

James 2:16
If you never knew a day of sunshine,
and was racked all day, with pain,
would you be able to feel the refreshing
showers, of a steady, pouring rain?
If you never felt a loving touch,
from a mother or a dad,
would you ever be able to become demonstrative,
for that, which you've never had?
If you always flew with fettered wings,
striving for dreams, far out of sight;
Could you ever be hopeful for a better day,
when you've known nothing but the night?

Present Tense
A tiny seed asleep in the dark earth,
awakening to produce a lovely flower. . .
The buried root winding up through the cold ground,
sending out new shoots. . .
The bare tree lifting leafless branches
toward the gray-washed sky,
anticipating promise and fulfillment ... .
God breathes into the heart of all things:
Life has its time of being.
Though I may possess a winter heart,
Lord, give me that springtime growth
and renewal.
