Wait

Why is it always wait.

Great inspiration comes.

Oh, but wait. I gotta do this first.

An idea to write,
 to create,
to make.

But wait. 
Always wait.

Some task,
Some duty,
Something that cannot wait
Must be done first.

The doldrums of life
Filled with inspiration
Twisting in the head
Till the chores are done.

A great poem comes,
With urgency to write
Or lose it forever.
But they are still talking.

The time to finally create,
Overshadowed by expectations
And the doubt of others.
But they are still talking.

Is it socially awkward 
To just walk out
Or drift off in a 
In a desire to create?

Only if it pays the bills.
Creativity is a cute hobby
They say 
Unless it can feed you.

Creating is the power of God.
To bring something
From nothing
With a thought and a word

It has always been pressed
For time and money.
6 days to create and one to rest.
Your time for pennies.

Create anyway
Make it real
Live minimal
And fill the void with life.

And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”—Phil. 4:6-7 You’ve seen the slogan “Know Jesus. Know Peace.No…

The Coming Storm

The signs of the times Meteorologists warn us about coming storms. Whether it’s a freezing rain and snow or a summer tornado. Folks believe them. They stock up on bread and milk. They buy icy melt. They break out the snow gear and the shovels or flash lights. They check on family. They stay home…

Thanking God

We owe Him everything God gave us life. He gives us the things we need and the joys of this world. When we get saved and know Him, we see that He gives us so much more. We realize that everything comes from Him and all of it works together for our good. Our thankfulness…
