Hope:

--Wanda Hartley Butts 1/23/2010

The sun peeking through the clouds after rain;

The flutter of eyelashes of a loved one in ICU;

Someone’s look of acceptance in face of your sin;

A robin perched on a branch laced with snow;

A hug squelching your sorrow for a moment;

A melody springing into your soul from the past,

A gift you realize came from a loving heart;

Encouragement to accept a calling or challenge;

Little things like a smile, a touch, a ringing bell;

And the joy of knowing God; resting in his Love.

The Enabler

--Wanda Hartley Butts

I am unqualified

to preach the gospel,

but the Holy Spirit is not:

He can take the things of God

and reveal them unto me

as I attempt to do

what He called me to.

Holy Invitation

--Wanda Hartley Butts 11/28/2009

Father,

We would cry a thousand tears a moment,

if our life could not be hid with Christ in You.

Our lives are an ever-approaching storm,

but You are the refuge from it.

Oh, the hope, the hope that is found in You.

You open the door to the heavenly city

and beckon the weary to leave the earth,

and that vision makes a soul cry…

“Oh, Lamb of God, I come. I come!”

AMEN
