All HaikuI'm just a regular guy who was
tempted to lose all hope but did not. It was God who made the difference.
cloaked with pure white snow
the balsam trees seem to know
‘just keep pointing up’
For this is what the Lord says–he who created the heavens, he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it; he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited–he says: “I am the Lord and there is no other.”
Isaiah 45:18 (NIV)
The apples, amazed
by an early autumn snow
still “hanging in there”
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:7-8a (NIV)
a leafless goodbye
to the blazing quilted sky
“I’m still here,” says God.
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age
Jesus – Matthew 28:20b (NIV)

many fallen lives
consistently on the rise
through the Prince of Peace
Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ
Romans 5:1 (NIV)

Frigid temperatures and ice crystals in the air create rainbows on each side of the sun called sun dogs. An artistic snow scape on a lake from heavily packed snow. Drifts and frozen ripples and waves are a wonder to behold, if one does not mind frosty eyelashes and cold biting through the warmest parka.

autumn morning walk
with my breath a trail of fog
the turn toward home

out of death comes life
such a paradox, it seems
to be born again
I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born from above.
Jesus – (John 3:3)
Like the autumn rains
on the thirsty, thirsty plains
hope springs eternal
and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s Love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Romans 5:5 (ESV)
with hummingbirds gone
and no trees filled with bird song
almost leafless rain.
There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV)
