“It is Written in Your Heart” When the foundations of earth were poured On what were the footings formed Who set in place the cornerstone Who divided the waters from the land Who measured the way or the distance of existence Tell Me, if you truly understand. What is in your heart? You, Lord! It was you who did…
Linger and Be Still Withdraw into spiritual silence Kneel in your soul-temple Sense the Lord’s spiritual perfection Behold the Lamb of God Take refuge in God’s love Inhale God’s eternal breath In the presence of God’s divine glory Linger and be still. – C. S. Craig

Define Life Life is mysterious, inquiring, amazing Paradoxical, contradictory, always changing Throughout history, only three perfect definitions have ever been expressed, and they were expressed by one person—Jesus Christ: “I Am, that I Am” (Exodus 3:14). “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6). “I am the resurrection and the life” (John 11:25).
Tidbits of Wisdom Want to worry less? Then pray more. Rather than looking all around you for answers, look up. Rather than looking for someone else to blame, look inward. Inhale God’s Word every day and watch worry go away. Rather than living in denial, make a study of you! If a believer stays in fellowship and another stays in…
Unmovable Facts Our steadfastness must be based on unmovable facts so that our faith is unshakable: The resurrection is recorded history; the earth turns, completing its circle of warming; the stars still wink from heaven; daily the Word of God completes its assignment and returns to the Lord undaunted. I watch as darkness loses its battle with light, and morning…
Your Cross, My Cross-Over Place My iniquities are never hidden in the light of Your Truth. Because of You Lord, I dwell in the hiding place of Your love; soar in the shadow of Your wings; rest in Your mighty hand. From eternity You came—to everlasting You returned—You are everything always and forever—I am dust. You have given Your angels…
Teach Me, Lord My Lord, teach me of your lovingkindness; make me to know your ways of compassion. Help me understand your forgiveness and believe it is so. You are the God of my salvation. All my hope is in you as I wait and watch for your return, when your voice like a trumpet shall call me out and…
Christ is Truth The unbeliever is like the bird perched upon a telephone line, unaware of the Gospel passing through his feet. When the thunder of my course is silent, I will have passed into peace. During the believer’s confrontations, God pours out His abundant grace so that we may overcome. Woe to the voices who preach “health and wealth”…
I am Conscious I am conscious! I think! I am aware I exist. I choose. Therefore, I am! Because I exist and I had nothing to do with the origination of my existence, there must be a necessity of cause. It is impossible for nothing to become something. Nothing will always be nothing unless something causes nothing to be something….
Learning is Discovery Learning is discovery; Discovery is learning! I have discovered that while the world sleeps, wisdom takes a stroll just before the day-spring. Often, I awake early and listen for her voice and the sound of her footsteps. When she passes, I am swept away to the next adventure. Wisdom and I, dancing together, hand in hand, through…
Convictions The Tree of Christ’s Death became the Tree of Our Life. Adam is the only human being who became a sinner by sinning. As his descendants, all of humanity, became sinners by birth. All of us inherited Adam’s sin-loving nature. All of us can inherit Christ’s righteous-loving nature, if we choose… wisely. The Grace of God is free to…
Contentment Contentment dwells under silken wings. The earth is quiet, resting in winter sleep. Special thoughts of you are a light of golden flame, one that warms my heart. If I had wings I would fly to high places. In the dawning and the dusk I see loveliness wrapped in beauty. In the light of thought I see beautiful colors…
Hoof beats When we are young and gathering strength, the hoof beats of time seem so far in the distant future. As we age, the hoof beats of the future are rivaled by the increasing hoof beats from the past… until they become one. It is then that we understand that life is a race to the finish line. Time…
Wings of Wonder The angels of wonder obey God’s silent voice, and those with wings speak His thoughts to all the earth, whispering love and salvation through Jesus Christ.
Divine Laws Circuits strike weighted clouds releasing rain and competent power; the sun and moon keep their tabernacle; the planets and stars, void but beautiful, fail not their assignment.
A Heart A heart that gives with innocence,how sweet, how dear it’s dwelling place.
Butterfly Have you ever seen… A butterfly kiss an angel The sun swallowed by the Earth The moon flirt with the night The earth spew from its mouth the sun, like a rising balloon Diamonds in the sky A butterfly perched on a rainbow A white cross over a bottomless pit What happens when… A butterfly kisses an angel When…
What Kind of Love What kind of love is it that causes humanity to choose hell instead of God? Selfish love. What kind of love is it that caused God to send Christ to the cross in spite of humanity’s selfishness? Infinite Love. What kind of love is it that caused God to love us so much that He died…
Quote Me Time is a wise counselor… if we stop, look and listen. There is rest, peace, happiness, freedom and beauty, in Truth. The seeds of injustice should never have been planted. The Lord preserves His Word of Truth, deceit is self-destructive. Lust will burn, endlessly, in the lake of fire. What the unbeliever sows in this life will be…
