About Me


*Please do not use or direct link to the images on this page ~ Read why here*

I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward. ~ Philippians 3:13-14 (Amp)

I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency]. ~ Philippians 4:13 (Amp)

I started writing Christian Inspirational poetry in the beginning of 1995. I used to write songs many years ago. I loved music (still do) and writing Lyrics. I started writing songs at around 12 - though I wasn't a Christian then and the songs reflected where I was at. When I came to the Lord, the song writing dramatically changed. Sometimes I'd just start singing them spontanously. I don't write songs so much now, although when my oldest son came to the Lord, he started singing songs to God. Upon hearing them I thought we could write some of them down, and I put tunes to them. That is probably all I do in that area now. God planted in my heart, a dream to write a childrens series. At the time I started writing Christian poetry, I had this idea to write kids stories in rhyme. I have started it already and hopefully in a few years I will be able to get them to print.

My hope and prayer for this site, is that you will find encouragement and comfort in the words of these poems & devotionals. Also that you will be challenged in your walk with God to press on in Him more.
