The Work is Still His

Image
 There are days when the light feels thin, when my thoughts move slowly, like wings too tired to rise. And yet… even here… God has not stopped His work in me. Before I ever knew His voice, He began something in my life — quiet as morning, steady as breath. A work shaped by hands that never shake, and a love that never changes. I have walked through valleys where hope felt like a whisper, where simply waking up was an act of courage. And right now, I’m walking through what feels like an endless valley of darkness.  But even in this place, His presence stays close. His promise stays true. Depression may dim the colors, but it cannot dim His faithfulness. Weakness may bend my posture, but it cannot bend His plan. My pace may slow, but His mercy never does. For the One who began this good work is the One who carries it — patiently, tenderly, faithfully — until the day it shines complete in the presence of Christ. So I stand here today, not because the fog has lifted, but because H...

God Sent a Sparrow

  For weeks, the birds were silent. No chirps in the bushes, no wings overhead. I missed them — not just their songs, but the way they reminded me of my granny, of simpler days, of God’s nearness in nature.   I prayed. Not a grand prayer, just a quiet request: Lord, bring back my bird friends.   And then one came. Just one. A little visitor perched on the rail outside my window, turning his head as if to say hello. He didn’t stay long, but he returned. He chirped. He listened. He flew to the feeder. And in that moment, I knew — God had heard me.   It wasn’t a flock. It wasn’t dramatic. But it was enough. A single bird, sent in love, to remind me that I’m seen. That even in loss or loneliness, God fills the silence with something living. Something gentle. Something that feels like home.   Maybe Granny picked that bird. Maybe God whispered, She needs a reminder today. Either way, I cherish it. Because it’s the simple things — the ones that feel sma...

Embrace God's Presence

 In the depths of the earth, where minerals rest, God slumbers peacefully, in a peaceful nest. For deep within the soil, His presence is found, His mighty essence, unyielding and profound. With the dawn of each day, He awakens anew, In the vibrant, verdant plants, His love shines through. From the tender shoots, to the towering trees, He breathes life into nature, with gentle ease. In the graceful flight of a bird, so free, God's spirit soars, in every winged spree. From the majestic eagle, to the humble dove, His divine touch, brings forth beauty and love. In the creatures that roam, both big and small, God's wisdom and grace, are present in them all. From the lion's roar, to the mouse's scurry, His hand guides their paths, with purpose and fury. But it is in the heart of man, that God truly resides, For in our thoughts and actions, His presence abides. With the power to reason, to create and to dream, We are vessels of His love, or so it would seem. In our kindness an...
