White temple

Enter in, peace is here.

A heart in prayer

Sometimes, a heart in prayerIs like a lost sea bird,Weary, far from any shore,That rests upon a tossing sea.

Remember Gethsemane

Sometimes the greatest love isletting goearth-weights.
I longfor Thy living Christ to lift me up,to touch my heart,to make me strong,to fill my thought with Thee.

Free acres

Like Ruth,be willing to gleanin the field after the reapers.

In this moment, always

God cares for my children,and me;in this moment, always,steady in His love, He keeps them,and me,poised, peaceful, free.
