I Will… (by Debrah S. Bernier)

I will walk with You, Lord, I will go where You go. I will follow where You lead, I will go with Your flow. I will listen when You speak, I will do what You say. I will ask when I need to, I will pray when You pray. I will praise You forever, I … Continue reading →

Stay Beside Me (by Debrah S. Bernier)

Stay beside me, Lord In all that I do. Reach out to hold me, Whenever I am blue. Hold me up please When I just might fall. Answer my plea When, on You, I call. Keep me on the right path, For all of my days. Help me be strong As I follow Your ways!

Missing You (by Debrah S. Bernier)

There is still an empty place Inside my heart for you, To fill it with anything else Just wouldn’t ever do. For each day that I live Without you by my side, Is another day of grieving- My feelings, though I hide. But there will come a day When I shall weep no more. That’s … Continue reading →

One Cent (by D.A. Cobb)

Shortly after retirement I received a notice from the company that my corporate stock options were about to expire. In order for them not to become worthless they needed to be exercised and fairly soon. I met with my accountant to plan our tax strategy and with my attorney on how the sale would affect … Continue reading →

The Choice (by Debrah S. Bernier)

In a winter’s wonderful wind, I hear Your gentle voice, Telling me the right way, To follow is my choice. In every single sunlit sky, I see Your glory shine. It’s beams, they fall upon me And still the choice is mine. In every beautiful day I feel Your strong embrace. And, yet, the choice … Continue reading →

Interviews (by D.A. Cobb)

Last evening I returned to my college alma mater for the first time in years. I had been asked by the business school to help conduct mock sessions for graduating seniors as they prepared for their corporate interviews. It was a great experience for me and I hope an interesting and informative time for them. … Continue reading →

Love (by Debrah S. Bernier)

Love is patient, Love is kind. It’s a state of the heart And a matter of the mind. It’s a blessing to others And a blessing to you It’s a sharing condition Between you and me, too. Love- when you have it Is a wonderful thing. Sharing it always Makes your heart sing!

Sometimes, Always (by Debrah S. Bernier)

Sometimes I think what I need Is the thing I really don’t. The direction You choose for me Is a way to go that I won’t. Sometimes my hearts desire Is exactly the same as Yours, But then my fickle heart Will change it to daily chores. Always You forgive me For the mistakes I … Continue reading →

Pig Soup (by Len Winneroski)

A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside. The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.” He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the … Continue reading →

My Broken Cross (by D.A. Cobb)

Some time ago, and as a token of her love and compassion for this sinner, a friend presented me with a few hand-made wooden crosses.  For years I carried them with me as a superstition believing they would protect me from harm and from risk. I kept them in my office, on my person, at … Continue reading →

Not My Home (by Debrah S. Bernier)

This big old world Is not my home It’s just where I live While my body does roam. It’s not where My treasure rests While I’m going about Conquering my quests. Nor is it where I’ll spend all my days, I’ll just stay a few While following His ways. Then when I die Safely home … Continue reading →

A Wasted Life? (by Len Winneroski)

“God has picked out people who are laughable, and through them He is confounding those who think they are high and mighty.  Low-class, second-rate, common, average, run-of-the-mill people- those so low that the world doesn’t even think they’re worth the time of day-these are the ones whom God has chosen…” – translation of 1 Corinthians … Continue reading →

Let Christ Be…(by Debrah S. Bernier)

We Are Your People (by Debrah S. Bernier)

We are Your people You are our God. We are to share You And give you our laud. We are Your people Who share of Your grace And encourage others To put a smile on their face. We are Your people And always will be, Since You hung and died On that old rugged tree!

Growing In Christ (by Debrah S. Bernier)

One dark, empty night When I was all alone, I closed me eyes and saw You And thought, “My, but You have grown.” You’re bigger now Than You were then, When I accepted You And turned away from sin. May You grow larger In my sight, And stay beside me In the dark, empty night!

Lesson From A Sparrow (by D.A. Cobb)

As we headed home after completing a few necessary errands the weather was turning rainy, cold and blustery, unusual weather for a spring day in May. We decided to have an early dinner and then return to the comfort and warmth of our cozy apartment. When we arrived at the restaurant the hostess seated us … Continue reading →

Cockroaches and Butterflies (by Len Winneroski)

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil … Continue reading →
