Poem About Feeling Alone and Misunderstood
—
by
Alien – A Poem Feelings run too deeplike the full summer moon,sinking in the sky’s dark sea of black.Reminiscing, pondering over burnt out stars,wishing their beautiful light could somehow be brought back. But the ancient dust has crumbled,scattered like ashes in the brisk solar wind.But memories stand transfixed,unaltered by time, suspendedin infinity’s domain without an…

The Black Veil – A Poem

by
The Black Veil – A Poem I wear this black veil of despair Like the wrappings of a mummy, Covering my self-inflicted wounds. My face frozen in cold, blank stare Trapped within my tomb, Alone in my room. Why do you continue to test me? Why do you hold out savory meat Only to snatch…

Growing Pains – A Poem Why are these dreams that stretch out across my heart’s field of desire, That glisten Like droplets of drew sparkling on the morning grass, So hard to obtain, so hard to take to take hold of, And so hard to lasso and pull close to reality? The burden is bearing…

“When Fate Knocks At Your Door” – A Poem
—
by
Most of us have a vision of the way we think our life should go. We have a certain career path that is right. We have a certain type of spouse that is our fit. We have a certain idea of a family, a house, a life. But life rarely follows our course. And thank…

Tilling Truth’s Garden – A Christian Poem
—
by
Tilling Truth’s Garden – A Christian Poem My understanding grows like a thriving weed, Rising taller, but smothering the seed Of a beautiful garden of eternal truth. I, a child in the infancy of youth, By my feeble immaturity have become aloof, Walked astray, carried by foolish pride. In your ways let my soul confide,…

by
Pondering At Sunrise – A Christian Poem on the Beauty of Nature I look out into the morning sky, Waiting for the curtain of night to lift, And the same questions I’ve sought answers To for ages keep rolling through my head: Why can’t I accept grace as a gift And not as a reward…

Waiting For Wisdom – Keeping Faith During Hard Times

by
“Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself…

This is a continuation of my post yesterday about dealing with the topic of doubt. It is a common misconception that there is something wrong with doubts, that if you doubt you don’t really believe. This is simply not true. Even John the Baptist had doubts. “Now when John heard in prison about the deeds…

The Dark Night of the Soul – Seeking Jesus in Our Doubts
—
by
Faith As An Emotion Sometimes I think we put way too much weight on faith. When I say “faith” I am defining it by the way the majority of Christians use the term – as a feeling. When we think of faith, feeling and emotion are immediately attached to it. Your faith is measured by…

Daring to Dream – A Poem About Faith and Belief
—
by
Let’s face it. Sometimes it’s difficult in our world of skeptics, cynics, and pessimists to keep our faith strong. Everywhere you turn there are articles, people, and influences steering you away from a belief in God and towards a belief in self. Our culture shows a similarity to the time of the Judges of Israel. “Everyone…

Loving God in the Midst of Doubt

From a very early age, I’ve felt a strong connection to God in my heart beyond anything that was learned or indoctrinated into me. It is a intimacy that calls to me, whispers my name, and demands that I pay attention and find meaning in what is unfolding around me. But stubbornness and pride are…

Prayer For Dealing With Feelings of Doubt
—
by
My Lord, why have you not heard my crying?Is my voice not loud enough to reach your ears?I sit in the pool of my own tear drops,drowning in the loneliness of my fears.I yearn for you. I yearn for freedom-caged like some wild beast no matter where I go.But your enemies…they’re free to roam.They walk…
