poetry for Christians

  • The unknown

    Taking faithful action  In the right direction  Can be daunting  But He who overcame Goes before you He won’t leave you abandoned He is the shepherd  Who cares  Who guides with love In the unknown There is growth  There is true surrender Nothing held back From Him Where peace resides We can trust  He knows…

  • What comes next

    A man plans his way But the Lord Establishes his steps I won’t trust myself In what I think Comes next I will rest in knowing You are sovereign  You are leading  As I walk with You You light the path  You are breathing  Newness  Freshness  Across my path  Better than before Better than what …

  • A small gift

    The ocean glows Radiating like silver  Vibrant and pure  A picture of God’s vessels The sun pours over  A new day  A new way  Living in His presence Trees tower high Reaching to the heavens Like our prayers  A fragrant aroma  Baskets of fish  Loaves of bread Started from A small gift The seemingly Insignificant …

    When I feel overwhelmed By worry By fear  You remind me You’re close You never leave  You’re right here In the waiting  You whisper  A gentle melody A song Of deliverance Setting us free As we fly On eagles wings You give us strength  Even when  I was in the depths With You I never…

    The joy of the birds  Frolicking in the air Enjoying God’s creation Their rainbow wings Full of potential Reliant on the Father They worry not They have no cares They simply fly May we be  Like the birds Enjoying You Flying  In our callings In our destinies Their chirping Reminds me Of all our prayers…

  • Comfort

    I know that You are good  Even when I face the darkness  You comfort my soul On the days that feel the hardest You give me strength  To keep on going  I may not understand now But You are all knowing  And You have a plan  For every tear, every sorrow I won’t wish away…

  • Surrender

    Holding loose My plans  To behold Yours Holding tight  To You hand Walking by faith Trusting  In Your provision In the waiting Keeping busy In my gifts  Sharing them with others Unshakeable peace In Your will Following Your path Not leaning  On myself My internal thoughts You pour out  Wisdom  To all who ask You…

  • Foundation

    Father In You There is peace Help me  When anxiety  Rages  I may not  Understand  Why But You do  You show me You heal me In the wilderness Of emotion Your word comforts It is my  Foundation  My hope My confidence Is in  It’s timelessness Unlike  Fading flowers It is everlasting Give us grace  To…

  • The fire

    In the questioning In the wrestling  You bring peace You silence My worries I can breathe You still The storm All around me With a word With Your voice I’m set me at ease There is no fear In love Perfect love casts out fear In Your presence I am enough I am loved beyond…
