Evening Prayers ~
Creator God, as the sun sets and the curtain of night falls, I lay before You my thoughts and acts of this day. I trust that they have been pleasing in Your sight, O Gracious God, for I have fought valiantly this day, and my heart’s desire was to make you proud of me, Abba . . .
In the quiet of this evening hour, accept my flawed efforts of this day, O Lord, and strengthen me as I continue my faith journey tomorrow, should You be willing. Strengthen me for the calling You have for me, and help me to be healed I pray. Deliver me of those things still tormenting me that I may proclaim my freedom . . .
Gracious God, keep me leaning on Your everlasting arms as I surrender this night to You, faithfully praying for rest after a hectic and anxious…

Sing Your Hallelujahs ~
Sing your hallelujahs,
sing your praises too
sing about your Father
who loves you.
Sing about His favor,
sing about His kingdom
sing about the joy
of knowing His wisdom.
Sing your hallelujahs,
sing your praises too
sing to the whole world
why Jesus loves you.
Sing about His forgiveness,
sing about His grace
sing about His peace
when you seek His face.
Sing your hallelujahs,
sing your praises too
sing about your Savior
who came to save you.
Sing about heaven,
sing about the day
when the Lamb of God
will take you away.
Sing about faith,
sing about trust
sing about the Goodness
of a God who is just.
Sing your hallelujahs
sing your praises too
sing about the hope
that lives inside you!
~~~~~~~~~
“Sing praises to God,
sing praises:
sing praises unto our King,
sing praises.”

Domestic Violence Awareness: The Monster Within… (Spousal Rape)
As we continue these postings on domestic violence, I want to share a poem that I wrote about spousal rape. This is a real problem and I pray that more will understand the damage that it causes to it’s victims. Remember, we all have a right to say NO.
The Monster Within…
where the lost of innocence for many begin.
For a loving and kind exterior,
hides the true mean interior.
Deceiving the innocent women,
but hiding the MONSTER within!
That monster hides silent,
till a trigger turns it violent.
Simple as it seems,
