Heaven’s Grace

I’m in the midst of asking God why
He said be still, go buy some donuts
God has a way of amazing me
A wonder awaits as I enter the store
God sees us in every moment of our lives.
I’m so grateful that He’s allowed me to see these few moments of Him interacting with mine.

A Prayer for Grace

The want of you is deep within me
A glorious touch has awakened your goal
Now grace has allowed me to breathe
As patience in you sings to my soul
Jesus is the beginning and ending of me
Find Him

Love’s Grace

That day was to be my last
It began with a sound mind
All I needed was before me
Then you appeared out of time

Grace Given

The wind and the rain cleanses
Giving hope to my journey’s end
In Nam we fought the good fight
While leaving what’s left of my friend
He lived with a pearl handled 45
Swam within his fears alone
Looking back is more than just a journey but a cleansing of the soul.
Be kind to yourself for that view is included within your healing.

Unspoken Grace

There’s a hope that gives
There’s a grace that lives
There’s a plea that renews
I’m trying to say, “I love you”

Love had no beginning and love has no end. That is how grace has touched my life. Looking down the corridor of my life, I find that love has defined the grace given to me. This book is my moment to thank the world for this wonder called life.

I was just leaving the hospital in Temple when, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a group of bikers gathered in the atrium located near the exit. I entered and was found in the middle of the hardest men and women I’d ever seen in my life. Well, I’m not a small person, but they towered over me, or so I thought. Once I came to myself, I approached the leader of the group. With my right hand extended, I pointed at a multi-colored symbol on his cut and asked, “What is that one?” He looked me over then smiled. I found that grace and generosity have no boundary. Love is the fabric of this life and grace is how it’s shown.

I give thanks to those whom I have known, and those I will know—for your grace has made this life worth living.

Life, Love and a Little Bit of Grace

Love is more than a moment
It’s spending our life together
Knowing you’re inside of me
Begins my tomorrow forever

Life has a passion for giving and receiving love. If you add a little bit of grace as the main ingredient this life is worth living. My introduction to wonder occurred while sitting on a hill overlooking a white sandy beach in Vietnam. I’m watching the crystal blue tides roll in as feeding birds dive into the crashing waves. There’s this huge sun setting in the foreground and the brilliance of the scene overwhelms me. I’m in awe of this God who can place me in such a terrible place but still show me life’s wonder. He’s made me aware of the true beauty contained in this world. And this is my small attempt to replicate His majesty. I ended the work with “A Blessing”. This is my gift given for you, so as you read this work I pray God will look down upon you, be gracious to you and give you peace. Thank you for reading.
