Testimony of healing

At first he felt stranded,Like a small boat, mast tipped,Lying in mud at low tide.
I walked a stony path,stumbling, sliding, bumbling blindly,clumsy-footed, vacant-eyed,all murky thoughts within.

God's day

We must not always watch the clock,for God does not set a timewhen we should love;that time is now.

The single eye

If thine eye be single.

I will live

So free me, Lord, that I may live to love,that I may live to praise, may live to showto hungry hearts the Life more plentifulthan mortal man can ever dream or know.

No laughing matter

Learning about God and manis a serious business:it is not to be taken lightlyor in an offhand way.
