Manifested Majesty

In awe of your beauty and the wonders of your hands.  
Praise you Lord, Oh my soul I worship you.

I am undone as Your holiness hovers over and the warmth of  Your embrace melts my inmost being. 
Chastened by Your Manifested Majesty.
In awe of Your glory, Your love envelops me.

On my face I worship you, in fear and trembling.  
Giving thanks for Your loving kindness, Your unfailing love.
You pour Your peace over me as the waters cover the sea.

Redeem me, rescue me, restore my soul.  I rest in Your glory, as Your

Light shines upon me.  Your beauty unfolds and reveals just
a glimmer of who you are.

In awe I bow, and pray Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty.





Your peace washes over me, calms all my fears, my spirit is renewed and at rest,
like a tranquil pond on a cool spring morning.

In awe I pray, Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty.

Set Free In Faith

In everything give thanks. Before early light your presence lights my path and leads me to understanding. Illumination of your love and goodness covers me. Your Word infiltrates deep into the darkness and penetrates the hidden places revealing truth to the lies and deception. You expose my inmost being with love that sets me free from all the shame and guilt and the fears that have locked my heart up in chains of discouragement. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom." 2 Cor. 3:17. For God who said "Let light shine out of the darkness" made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ." 2 Cor. 4:6. Thank You Jesus for meeting me here.

Light shines out of darkness.

Summer Morning

Summer Morning

Morning is rising to meet the afternoon.

Lingering in first light, listening to the morning song.

Praise to the heavens.

 The sky lightens from the night of darkness

To the brightness of the Sunrise, that

Lifts the soul from slumber to rejoice.

The delight is in the pondering of the morning,

The sounds, the solace that brings peace and purpose.

Morning moves to quickly from the coolness to the heat of the day.

Summer morning may I linger longer to give praise and thanks for the dawn of early light?

Awaken my soul, expand my senses to embrace you with strength.

Love that sets me Free

In everything give thanks.

In silence I sit seeking and thanking you for everything.

Before early light your Presence lights my path and leads me to understanding.  Illumination of your love and goodness covers me.  Your Word infiltrates deep in the recesses of my soul revealing  truth to the lies and deception I have believed.  You expose my inmost being with love that sets me free.  No longer do shame, guilt and fears, keep me in the dark.  My heart has been set free from the bondage of darkness.  You have bound up the blackness of my heart and wrapped me in your light of your Grace, and your Forgiveness.  No longer held captive, imprisoned by falsehood, but free in faith.  Set Free! Set Free! Set Free!

And those who know your name will put their trust in you.  For you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.  Psalm 9:10 

Sanctuary Hill Summer Sunset

Before the Darkness closes in  His Light Shines  His  brilliant Glory.

Thirst for Fulfillment

As a Hummingbird is drawn to the nectar off a flower, I want to be drawn to you.  This cool crisp Spring morning I gaze at your beauty.  I am awe struck by your wonder and majesty, meditating on your Word about Living Water that washes over me with purity and righteousness.  I am mesmerized and consumed by your presence as I drink in deep from the waters that overflow my spirit.  May I thirst for more of you when the world tries to satisfy the cravings only you can fulfill.The longings and the desires of my soul can only find rest when it reaches deep into the depths of your love.  Engulf me in your light and glory as I worship you at your feet, humbly on my face in reverence and awe.  In fear and trembling may I drink in your Living Water.  Satisfy my soul as I drink in the sweetness of your love.

STILL

The world seems dark and insecure and afraid, but God, who created the world is still in and over the world and in control.  We must look beyond the bad news the evil, the senseless, and look to the One who created and Still reigns over all.  The sun still comes up and shines brightly, the birds flutter in the wind.  The trees still sway to the music in the summer breeze.  There is still beauty around, still peace, still presence here.  Look around, there is victory on the horizon.  We don't have to be afraid but  be faithful til the finish.  He is still God.  Just be still and know that He is God. 

Still.
