Strength Us

Good morning LORD,

El Ohiym, Adonai.

You never change, or ever lie.

Bring forth Your justice as the rising sun.

Our world is shaking, rocking, for each and every one.

Cause the evil hearts of men to turn to love instead;

For peace is found in freedom and not in fear and dread.

Lifting up those hurting, sick and displaced.

In Your care Lord, we place them for You alone are

The Creator of the whole human race.

Come Lord Jesus! We wait on You.

Strengthen us as You tarry,

For we place our trust in You.

“For my soul trust in You;

And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,

Until these calamities have passed by.”

Psalm 57:1 NKJV

Because…

In God, praise rises – no fear.

“When I cry out to You,

Then my enemies will turn back;

This I know,

Because God is for me.”

“In God (I will praise His word),

In the LORD (I will praise His word),

In God I have put my trust:

I will not be afraid,

What can man do to me?”

Psalm 56:9-11 NKJV

Listening Heart

“Welcome in His Peace,

Softest flowing light.

For in Him there’s no striving,

Only quietness to the listening heart.”

“He will quiet you with His love,

He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Zephaniah 3:17 NKJV

“He’ll calm you with His love

And delight you with His songs.”

Zephaniah 3:17 The Message

Notes Ring

“Windchimes remind me the

South breeze blows.

Notes ring the air,

“Only He knows.”

Changing is coming,

Sure as the breeze.

It may not have happened yesterday,

But according to Your Word Lord, please.”

“God is a just Judge,

And God is angry with the wicked every day.

If He does not turn back,

He will sharpen His sword;

He bends His bow and makes it ready.”

Psalm 7:11&12 NKJV

“In Him also we have obtained an inheritance,

Being predestined according to the purpose of Him

Who works all things according to the

Counsel of His will…”

Ephesians 1:11 NKJV

“…and proclaim liberty throughout all the land

To all its inhabitants…” Leviticus 25:10 NKJV

Awaken the Sun!

“Magnificent morning sunrise!

In peace we say, “Goodbye.”

2021 you’ve been filled with numerous challenges,

And tears shed by many people’s eyes.

It’s not your fault you were numbered “2021,”

For you’ve been faithful each day to come.

But, who knows if in God’s time,

You were called to awaken all people

To His Son.”

“The sun shall no longer be your light by day,

Nor for brightness shall the moon give light to you;

But the LORD will be to you an everlasting light,

And your God your glory.

Your sun shall no longer go down,

Nor shall your moon withdraw itself;

For the LORD will be your everlasting light,

And the days of your mourning shall be ended.”

Isaiah 60:19-20 NKJV

Thank you fellow bloggers for stopping by and your encouragement throughout the year.

A Good Expectation

“Thank You Lord, for this day.

No expectations, only play.

Snoring dog on pillow resides;

Christmas tree in hope reminds.

This year has nearly come to close,

But here at Your feet,

A confident expectation of Your good

In the coming new year glows.”

“Out of Zion, the Perfection of Beauty,

God will shine forth.

Psalm 50:2 NKJV

Enjoying the last days of 2021.

Blessings to you and your household from Abby and me.

Silver Wings

“Morning dew perfect,

Crisp air from Your breath.

Resting in You Lord,

You are my nest.

Wonderful, Counselor,

Gift from above.

Covering the earth, Lord,

Silver wings of a Dove.”

“I see You sparkling like silver and glistening like gold,

Covered by the beautiful wings of a dove.”

Psalm 68:13 TPT

Thank you for stopping by and visiting me today.

Blessings,

Denise

Welcome

It’s the simple things…candle lights welcoming.

First day home from school on Friday and I had to go outside and play.

Nose pressed,

Windowpane memories.

“Awaken my spirt and soul with delight.

Dreaming of Christmas past in the middle of the night.”

“Blessed shall you be in the city.” Deuteronomy 28:3 NKJV

Bride Arise!

“Prophecy to come; on bended knee.

Future bright; my spirit sees.

Fulfillment of Your Word is True;

Multitudes upon multitudes put their faith in You.

For out of the ashes Your Bride does Arise;

Holy Ghost fire on her resides!

Quicken the spirit;

Sharpen the sword,

For Jesus Christ is coming!

Our Saving Lord!

“And after these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God!” Revelation 19:1 NKJV

“Now I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse.

And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True,

And in righteousness He judges and makes war…

And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine line,

White and clean, followed Him on white horses.”

Revelation 19:11 & 14 NKJV

Whisper’s Scent

“Fragrant friend,

I’ll see you again.

After the snow and the winter winds end.

I’ll muse on your beauty; morning’s pink glow,

While the north wind’s howl, and the season’s blow.

Lightest of fragrance will beckon again;

To remember the whisper of my friend’s heaven scent.”

“The fragrance of their flowers whispers,

“There is a change in the air.”

Song of Solomon 2:13 TPT

We planted this antique rose over 25 years ago. Faithful to bloom in drought conditions and all seasons. Cuttings from antique roses are known to be gathered from abandoned homesteads, forgotten cemeteries, and wayside roads.

Blessings for a fragrant day,

Denise
