Only A Branch


Only A Branch

I am only a branch
I am moved by the wind
When a bird finds my perch
I am likely to bend
But I curve and I stretch
and I know, from the root
that I have what I need
to sprout leaves and bear fruit.


“I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright morning star.” (Rev 22:16b, NIV)

Where Water Meets The Sky




Creation Testifies


blue-whale-1198719__480I am amazed by the things God has created; from the tiny ants that can carry 20 times their own body weight, to the giant whales that swim the ocean deep (a blue whale’s heart can grow to the size of a small car).  I eat raspberries and am thankful that God made them taste so delicious.  He didn’t have to.  He didn’t have to create a fruit that tastes better than candy.  And did you know that there is such a thing as a “pumpkin star”?  They are named that because they look like jack-o’-lanterns, and have an oblong shape.  Their shape is due to how quickly they rotate.  Not only that, but these stars can be up to 10 times the size of the sun (according to, you could line 109 Earths across the face of the sun).  God could have made things uninteresting, tasteless, colorless, but He didn’t.  He made things so complex, colorful, and full of flavor that creation itself is a testament to His greatness and power.
