Becky’s Haiku: Guide and Mad

014

This world tries to guide

Me in lies of “liberty”

Til I’m mad, you see.

For I become too

Confused to see God’s Truth and

What is right for me.

So I hide in a

Solitary place seeking

God and his sweet grace.

I have just attempted another haiku challenge from Ronovan Writes blog using the words “guide” and “mad” and this time I wrote a three stanza poem. I am enjoying the challenges and I have no idea how he chooses the words to use.  If you like poetry and haiku’s then I invite you to also accept his latest challenge at this link: https://ronovanwrites.wordpress.com/2015/07/13/

God’s Promises in a RAINBOW

Trailing Rainbow

When a rainbow streaks the sky after the thunder and the rain

Is a time to remember that God keeps all his promises to the end:

Remember Jesus as the Son of God and Lord

And he will also remember us according to his word.

Always faithful: God’s love and faithfulness never end;

For once he’s with us, he remains as our Father and friend.

Individual and personal as he calls us each by name

While through the ages, his deep love remains the same.

Never forgetting: as we live a new life with Jesus,

God promises to never leave nor forsake us.

Blessings and kindnesses he will gladly show

By answering our prayers and giving us lasting hope.

Omnipresent: God’s unseen spirit is everywhere;

In our hearts and in the breeze that filters the air.

Whispering in the soft wind at night, he reminds us of his word

As we lay quietly in that stillness remembering he is Lord.

Living in LIBERTY

Living Forever

In the

Bountiful Blessings of God

Eternally free

Redeemed and resurrected from our life of

Transgressions and wickedness, to live forever

Young but loving, caring, and wise in His everlasting kingdom

HAPPY JULY 4TH EVERYONE!!

Looking towards the unknown future, God

Gives me firm hope to press forward.

Jesus in the Rainbow

Trailing Rainbow

Red: Jesus’ blood was shed on the cross so my sins may be washed away in forgiveness.

Orange: Like the brilliant glowing sunset, Jesus’ light is brightly shining within us.

Yellow: As the day dawns with morning sunlight, Jesus’ presence stays with me as my guide in life.

Green:  He’s the Good Shepherd keeping us in his scope; He watches and gives us eternal hope.

Blue: Like the clear sky that stretches with no end, so it is with heaven, God’s everlasting kingdom.

Purple: Jesus arose from his grave victoriously and will reign forever in glorious majesty.

Reflecting on SUMMER

Sizzling, sultry sunshine

Underwater swimming and diving

Marshmallow treats around a campfire

Milder nights with warmer weather

Evening walks beneath the lingering sunlight

Reddish-orange sunsets in the late twilight

Becky’s Haiku: Gain and Hound

003

I gained some peaceful moments only

To be hounded by nagging doubts.
