Firefly's Light

I've seen so much firefly's light
emitted as of late, from so many
Even from those whom don't know
where they got this precious light
I wonder where the beauty
of the firefly's light comes from
Just as the thought forms in my head
I hear a familiar voice say
the firefly's light comes from me

Then I answer, of course it does Father
He then tell me the firefly's light is but
a minute part of the light you carry within your heart
The light I gave you in the beginning
There are no words all I can say is
Thank You Father

Loving Him

She'd never known a love like they share

At least until she allowed Him to come into her heart
close to the dawn of this year
in the mist of the storm she was in
for a while people question her devotion to Him
She's learning to trust Him
She now knows the only one she must answer to is Him

Loving Him is like breathing to her
He speaks to her where she's at
as He does with all of us
Every believers relationship with Him is different
though loving Him is something we all have in common
She will continue loving Him throughout eternity

When It's Time

When it's time my soul will be

flooded in His peace
A peace the likes of which
I've never felt before
Endless tears of happiness
pour from a heart once gracefully broken

When it's time my soul will take flight
on the wings of a dove
as pure as white snow
Higher and higher my soul will soar
into His waiting arms

Love

Love is a place from where

true beauty flows
The love I feel for others flows
straight from Him as He took my
place on the cross that day

Christmas Is In The Air

The story of His birth will be told

just as it has every year before
I know Christmas is in the air
the first time I hear it
The stars also seem a little brighter
then at any other time throughout the year

Holy Ghost Whine

Oh I can't wait for that drink

the one that changes lives forever
It's just another one of the great gifts
He has given to His people
If you've never tasted it
you don't know what you're missing

It has just begun changing me for the better
I will never go back to who I was
before I took that first sip
If He prompts me to drink
for the rest of my days
I will rejoice and gladly
do so as I praise Him endlessly

It's better than an alcoholic hangover
A hangover you may never want to come off of
It even contains powers to heal
What is it you may ask?
Well, it's holy ghost whine of course

When I Feel Weakest

When I feel weakest

I pray Lord I need you
I ask for the strength to carry me through this storm
The rain is heavy and clouds are dark
hiding your bright light from my sight
I need you to take flight

He gentility reminds me
I am here child
I see your pain though
I promise your troubles are mild
Although, you can't see you will make it
to the other side

Suddenly, He's there surrounding me in love
restoring the faith He gave me
before I was clay in His hands
When I feel weakest the faith I have
makes me believe I will be stronger because
He's brought me too far to leave me now

His Love Flows

I have a new friend

She carries His light wherever she goes
Like me she has a hopeful heart in which a powerful
story has begun taking shape
A story through which His love flows

Her heart has seen its share of breaks
Yet, I know His grace will fill it to overflow
causing Him to use her to deliver a powerful
message only she can
I pray all her hopes and dreams come true and
our newfound friendship can withstand the tests
of the journeys we're now on

Friday Morning's Dream

This morning she was granted a reprieve from

the nightmares she cares not to remember
The kind that makes her wake asking
What the heck was that?
a question she's been asking herself
frequently as of late

This Friday morning's dream
allowed her to find a friend she's been missing
Positive energy radiating from her as it always has
Her friend said something they often repeated
You can do this!
Just like that she felt strength
she just needed to be reminded she had

The next thing she knew she woke up
tears streaming down her face
No! I want to see how this Friday morning's dream ends
Why wake me now?
Oh heck, I've never gotten to see how my Felicia dreams end anyway
It was then she knew her friend's
positive energy would carry her through her day

Her Pen Bleeds

Her pen bleeds with emotions she

tries to keep locked inside
Sometimes she fears people wouldn't understand if
she lent her voice to the expression of these pent up feelings
Yet she has a poet's heart

Her pen bleeds with hope as fragile as
priceless crystal which
could shatter at any moment
like the heart keeping her alive
Although it is this hope that is the one thing propelling
her toward her dreams

Her pen bleeds with love
Love she prays she'll one day share
with someone who will love her just as
much as she loves them

Right now though her pen will keep
bleeding until the ink runs out
She hopes this doesn't happen for years
After all it was God
that gave this poet her gift

Candle

Burning brightly, a mix of yellow and orange

Flame, dancing to its own rhythm free
Dreams, carried on smoke rising from the wick
Candle, you are more than just wax flame and barely
perceptible rings of smoke
