Dusk.. Night is calling Light recedes as the sun begins its descentDarkness inches inSoon the world will be shrouded in blacknessBut your Word O’ Lord shines brightEven in the darkest of night, It illumines my path and preserves my soul © 2019 Deanna Renee Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from…
It is a sobering realization to think that God knows me. Nothing is hidden from His sight. All my secrets, fears, sins, every thought I’ve ever had, everything I’ve ever done; all is laid bare before Him. Yet, He loves and embraces me. Not for who I am, but in spite of who I am.…
To walk in white, Pure and unblemished;A pillar in the temple of my God;His name on my forehead;Life Everlasting. To Believe–Seems such a simple thing,So small a price;For a debt I’m unable to pay.Could it be true?

All my life I searched.I don’t really know what I was looking for;something to hold on to, maybe. A reason for living. My heart broken, my mind confused to the point of insanity.Happiness would show its face, only to hide againthe moment I reached out to take hold of it. I was so alone.Surrounded by…
