The Cross Around Necks
I walk into school with my Bible in my hand, spine soft from use, corners worn like an old friend. I underline the verses that feel like home and scribble in the margins like I’m writing letters to God. People glance over, sometimes with curiosity, sometimes with something colder. They don’t say much to my...

Premium Member Saturday, We Hid
We watched him die, He was nailed up high, Alive for hours, Before the sky turned black; Thunder rolled, Lightning flashed, It is finished, was the cry That came final from his lips; He died, we cried, we ran and hid; He was taken and laid in a tomb, Borrowed from a friend, Laid there,...

Premium Member From His cross is born a river of light that floods the hidden corners of the soul
From His cross is born a river of light that floods the hidden corners of the soul, Power and dominions have crumbled under the gaze of the One who weaves eternity into hearts, Each divine touch is a whisper that wraps us in the mantle of eternity and love, To the very end, He loved us with a...

The cross made of wood
~ Ode to the risen, the followed, the crossing, when evil sits lurking mid shadows of fear Thorns in the mirror where blood slowly trickles, menacing voices, a nail and a spear Who is it calls this a Saturday sermon, punished with timbers now more than their weight Hung out to dry as the crows above circle, trust is a demon built solely...

There's nothing funnier than a cross-eyed chicken With legs the size of your arm The Chicken Emporiums would sure love to know The name of this progressive farm Aside from the unnerving cross-eyed feature The implications are really immense Imagine a leg on your plate so humongous You wouldn't know where to commence The cross-eyed feature might cause some concern If the patrons...

Premium Member On the Cross
the tree’s ancient stories linger in the leaves, silent satin colored in whispers, rustling dancing like the light who reflects the music, a soothing gentling each note, blessings pouring out over the limbs, the leaves still as yesterday, rhythms of grace solace in the silence – still as the dew against its petal softly swaying, stirring light, laughter, gentle dreams the tree remembers where yesterday spoke poetry, engulfed by...

The Heavy Cross Of Pain
Who else can bear the heavy cross of pain: if not us who ardently profess Christ? Haven't we been blessed by His light? Aren't good deeds and kind words a gain? Jesus was the humblest of kings, no crown for his head but thorns; He fell but still and carried the heavy cross of pain to His death: women wiped the...
