Drop Down N Getcho Eagle On
Most people know that eagles use wind resistance to lift off. What I didn’t know and found excessively amazing is that eagles chill in turbulence, too. You know what they do? When turbulence hits, the eagle tucks wing, goes into free fall, and then recovers by simply extending wings again as the turbulence subsides. Not […]

Only God Can Judge Me
I am part of a generation who defend ourselves and our decisions at all costs. We say stuff like “only God can judge me” and “don’t judge my struggle.” And while there’s a hint of truth in that—Jesus took our judgement on the cross and we all fall short—there’s also some deception in that that […]

He Keeps On Doing Great Things for Me
Triolet– A/B/a/A/a/B/A/B rhyming pattern. Poets.org, https://poets.org/glossary/triolet So I took the #Triolet Challenge as set forth by the blog “We Drink Because We’re Poets” (now defunct, I believe) on August 5, 2013. It is an interesting structure that lends itself to iambic tetrameter–at least for me. It felt natural; though I have always told myself that […]

A Million Little Miracles
#confession: I used to want to desperately experience miracles and signs and wonders like the old church. It was an entire obsession. I would scour YouTube to watch miraculous healings and people passing out under the “presence.” I would literally pray, “WHY CAN’T THIS BE ME!” And then. The Lord baptized me with the Holy […]
