No In Betweens

We wonder about it
But don’t have to pretend
Because we all know
How our journey will end

We’ll all meet our death
And on our last day
We go into the grave
With our faith that we’ll pray

We’ll trust in His Word
As was Lazarus’ way
With great rejoicing
When we hear Jesus say

Beloved come out
Untie him, let him go
We’ll rise from the tomb
Because Jesus, we know

We believe or do not
There are no in betweens
The power within
What Easter truly means!

Places

Places I’ve been
And I long to go
Places I’m from
Ones I love, so

Ones I desire
Ones that inspire
Ones that descend
Ones that lift higher

Places of beauty
Ones that we share
One of the moment
Where we are right here

Ones of emotion
Of feeling so low
Places of joy
Ones where peace flow

None more important
Where all long to be
And the love of the soul
Of eternity

Place of Living

Places of living
The first, about me
With all my needs
Living physically

Living from our mind
To think strategically
Of the past and future
Intellectually

Living from our heart
To feel passionately
Alive in the moment
One emotionally

Living from the soul
Love unconditionally
Eternal perspective
One spiritually

All throughout each day
We move willingly
Let’s pause with a prayer
To choose the soul wisely

Sacred Place

Quiet now my being
In stillness to begin
From the mind to soul
A movement deep within

Drifting to the center
To the whisper of grace
Dwell in Me beloved
In our sacred place

Distractions are calling
Come here, they say
Acknowledge them now
And let them drift away

To focus of being
To the soul in love
The drawing of Spirit
Descending above

Help me to remain
In this indwelling prayer
To be with You Lord
In living from here
