A Summer Place
The Lake;
sparkling vast
like a river of crystal
through a green golden dream.
The air is warm,
and the breeze is cool.
The music plays,
and the kids run.
The birds;
those lovely birds
our friends, singing
sweet to the beat
of Life.
Zoom to the lake,
perfectly warm, but
cool enough.
Dragonflies swoop,
where the fish jump.
It’s hard to stand;
in the wake of the boats.
Waves pounding the shore,
Slap, Slap, in rhythmic
slapping just to slap some more.
Laughter in the air
The sun lowers down,
while the shadows are long,
till it drops gone,
and the skeeters sing.
Slap, slap, slap
the lake still breathes.
Frogs gloat, crickets call
and the booze hound shouts.
It’s time for him to sleep.

Why Do We Study Prophecy?
So, we know the seasons. The Bible is 30% prophecy, as some have stated. But, when you consider that the whole thing is about Jesus Christ, and that all the stories and pictures speak of Him, His First Coming and Second Coming, I think its more like 100%. God has called all believers to be…
Faith And Works
God works to build the Kingdom through us. James 2:14-26 In this passage. The apostle James, speaks of works being an aspect of our faith. It ends with the famous phrase “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” In the verses James shows that God commanded…
