Embracing Change: Nature’s Resilience


while the cold wind blows

the budding trees do not mind

swaying either way


Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

Romans 12:12 (NIV)

on November fourth

he came to encourage us

after the hard freeze


In memory of Coach K.

Autumn Candle


steady cold Fall rain

wind-driven on the window

a still candle burns


Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

Spring’s Hope

such new beginnings

like the leaves of a burr oak

remind us of hope


And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit whom he has given us.

Autumn Rains


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.

Autumn Faith

the promise of fall

covered in blankets of dust

remembering rain


To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.

Rainmaker


on the cloudless plains

the merciless sun beats down

yet the flowers hope


Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Winter Reflection

the frosty oak limbs

catching the first morning sun

point to rays of hope


But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
