To the Chief Musician in Heaven. A Contemplation of the Word. A Psalm of Gary. Why do you turn away, And shut your eyes to the truth? Sin is abundant where oppression increases, But True Religion knows His own. To let the oppressed go free, This is what honors God. When my oppressors eat, The …
There are principles that govern us as human beings.Ā They are inlaid within a person by God, as jewels are fixed to a crown.Ā What I have achieved will never be noticed without the context of our life experiences.Ā If you are an over-achiever, you will believe little in what the world has to say …
What do accountable people all have in common? One thing is, they love for their works to be seen. Of course, LORD, ask away. All of us do, at least in some regard. So then, in a follow-up answer to your question, “What average people throw their life away,” I’d have to say unbelievers.Ā Does …
I made a joke yesterday. You laughed as if you’d heard it for the first time. Didn’t you already know the punchline? God: Gets better every time I hear it… I ate lunch today and prayed before I ate. You seemed like you especially appreciated it. Don’t millions of people do that? God: You’re …
“Now, quick, quick with the eyedrops!!!āĀ I told myself.Ā I slunk back in my low back chair even further, pushing through the searing pain as I, with trembling hands, carefully pooled the drops into my watery eyes.Ā Ā āDone,ā I say, with moderate admiration (admiration for God of course, but donāt quote me on that). I sat back …

The very idea of waiting around for God to do something is the very abandonment of solid effort.Ā I love you, and I love the idea of letting go of things that weigh me down. There was a time when I didn’t want to pray.Ā I want to pray now, but it’s much easier than …
Icy glares and cold lit stares. Fall on walls in even glares. Beneath the flames of energy, A time has come for you and me. The silence opens and splits the night, The calling is the heavenās blight. Satan rocks the icy grave, Where door of death gave way to save. Christās victory has spoken …
A Psalm of Gary.Ā To the chief musician. If I stand upon the rock, It is by mercy. You keep us from falling, Affirm it!Ā Selah By truth, I stand in grace, We are awestruck by Your love, Your testimony is sure. My enemies laid a snare, But Life endures forever. The ungodly can not …
