The Iris The Hollyhocks and Lilies


The roaring waves came crashing over me

But my God is the breaker of them all

Does your soul long for Him

*"The Lord on high is mightier and more glorious than the noise of many waters..."

He comes like a slow soaking rain that waters my soul
 Yes 
He waters my soul and brings new life into my whole being

Look 
The Iris 
The Hollyhocks
 And lilies 
Are sprouting up through the tares of life
 Crowding out the stealers of peace

These tares will not take me over  

 My Jesus 
He is mighty to save

 My God 
He is the redeemer and giver of life
 Sweet life 

He is my helper 
And will carry every burden I place upon His shoulders 
His promises are sure 

*"The Lord on high is mightier and more glorious than the noise of many waters; yes than the mighty breakers and waves of the sea."

He stops them from washing me out to deep dark places,
He carries me from the shoreline to safety

He sets my feet on solid ground, 
Upon "The Rock"
 I'm lifted high 
I hear Him say
 "You are safe my child"


*Psalm 94:17-19
If the Lord had not been my help,
My soul would soon have
dwelt in the abode of
silence
If I should say, "My foot has
slipped,"
Thy lovingkindness, O LORD,
will hold me up.
When my anxious thoughts
multiply within me,
Thy consolations delight my
soul.

A Threatening Storm

  A Threatening Storm What appeared as the greatest storm I'd ever face was upon me! I heard the Dr.s voice saying well there wasn't much clarification in the cat scan about that lump in the back of your throat but there's a lot of notes about what did show up... You have a meningioma tumor on your brain........ I immediately went into shock as I really never thought I would ever hear that word again in my lifetime. You see my former husband had suffered twelve years with a meningioma brain tumor and it finally took him home to heaven. So with uncontrollable tears streaming down my face I really didn't hear much more except he would schedule me for an MRI and an appointment to  see a neurologist. I left his office completely numb and in total disbelief of what he told me. The next day the imaging office called and scheduled my MRI, and on and on it went with tests, appointments, followup appointments, other specialists with more imaging and when we got to the final appo

Reset  Who is this one? Look at her now! She arises out of her desert, clinging to her beloved... Lord Clear my spirit of the invasion of my soul and it's soulish, selfish ways. It  seems to be my default. Your ways Lord, your high and lifted ways, seem unreachable this morning; and then you whisper, "It's the distractions of everything around you that wants to carry you away from my presence." "I know Lord, I'm fighting to stay, to surrender it all." Then I remember, this battle is yours not mine, this battle to just be still in your arms. "Oh my beloved, how can I live in this torn up world and not be distracted by all the noise?" Take me away my bridegroom King, set me atop the mountain of your heart, deafen my ears, and reset the default of my heart to your voice alone. The Bridegroom King 5)Who is this one? Look at her now! She arises out of her desert, clinging to her beloved. When I awakened you under the apple tr

The Miracle and Gift

  The Miracle and Gift Even the very first Christmas was a very busy time... Bethlehem Joseph and Mary Shepherds Angels and more angels Everyone was in the hustle and bustle of registering for the census, not even realizing the most amazing happening on earth was about to take place. Traveling to their destination of Josephs hometown to register for the census, Bethlehem was buzzing with people crowding the city streets. Angels hastened down to earth to a shepherds field  Shepherds hastened off to see Let's hear Luke's account... "An angel stood before them in the middle of the night..." (it seems babies love to come in the middle of the night) first blinding them with light and then more angels came and a   concert began ! Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, toward men.  Although Christmas is still a very busy time, not many seem to want to hear the account of the  multitude of heavenly hos
