With thanks I lift my heart to You
To know the unexpected
Amazed by what I see
In my heart where your eyes see
Today friends in love unite
Surrounded by your presence
The flora bouquet of Your delights
Alive with more I pray each day

God Raise Me to Your Eternal Joy Leave a comment
Staying Aloft 3 comments
I pray to not let the churning of the world’s endless disturbance
Deter me from the sacred space I share with Thee
Listening for the song of Your Spirit calling
In concert with all Creation
Attention on the promise of Your peace and Your protection
Overcoming darkness in the light of Your reflection
Mining the goodness in each other
Living because of Your unconditional gift of Love
That multiplies with every offering of thanks

Growing Closer to God 2 comments
Oh Lord I Pray
That while I feel as though sometimes confined within the bud
I trust in You with all my heart and incline to you my ear
To listen with faithful waiting
Ever ready for when You call
Without sight of what tomorrow holds
I trust that You are near
And thank You for a glimpse of Your presence here

Why We Need God Leave a comment
Oh God, why do I stray
When You have shown You always know the way
The way that leads to peace, and joy, and life
You who are a constant source of strength for challenges unknown
The days of infancy are frail, and so vulnerable
We cannot survive alone
Now full grown I need You still
And desire You even more
Knowing that without You near
I am still so frail, and so vulnerable

Roots Leave a comment
The Root of an All Saints Day
Oh, did I succumb to sorrow swallowed by the years
Released by one suggestion
Remembering those now gone
Thank You God for this one great consolation
That where they are, we too, one day will be
Restored, reclaimed, by grace and love, at last, forevermore

Give us This Day our Daily Bread and Keep me Hungry for You, oh God Leave a comment
Life begins with hunger in a world now separated from its source
A mother gone, a world unknown
Will hunger ever cease

There’s Nothing New Under the Sun Leave a comment
For God has given us each our gifts
To reform, imitate and recreate
For all there is under the sun has really already been done
