As a junior high writing instructor, I feel a responsibility to practice the skills that I teach, even though time for writing comes in bits and pieces. I enjoy playing with language and rhythm and the flow of words. There is power in writing, and I like to use writing to express feelings and to influence people. I hope that, in a small way, you may be blessed by my musings.

God's Love
"1 John 4:7,8 -- Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love."
"John 3:16 -- For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life."
A Haiku Poem about God's Love:
God's love is perfect,
Eternal, sacrificial,
Immeasurable.
God's unchanging love --
His unfathomable love --
Cannot be improved.
His love cannot be
Explained, limited, nor be
Fully understood.
God will not love me
More, when I am good, or less,
When I live badly.
My unworthiness
Will not change God's love for me;
God's love is constant.
Unique and changeless,
It's incomprehensible,
Unconditional.
God specializes
In making broken people
His useful servants.
God's love seeks to draw
Me in to relationship
With him that endures.
God's love is freely
Available to us all;
It never wavers.
Live with assurance
God's unfailing devotion
Is given to you.
