I began writing poetry early in my walk with God. I have found it to be the best and sometimes the only way to express what God has made real in my heart. All of these poems are gifts from Heaven to me. Writing them and even re-reading them myself has blessed me beyond measure. I now pass the gift on to you. May you be touched and changed.

That I May Know Him

Philippians 3:10

“That I may know Him”
This is my heart’s song
All else is worth nothing
It is Him for whom I long

“The power of His resurrection”
Giving me life anew
He was the first to rise
My life is now renewed

“The fellowship of His sufferings”
Oh, to be more like Him
I want to go through the fire
To be purged from all my sin

“Conformable unto His death”
For my self-will to be dead
My own self crucified and gone
And Him to live in my stead
