Come to me child

‘Come to me and drink You tired and thirsty soul I am the one who anoints within  I can make you whole  And when you lay down That heavy yoke That binds you to this world And truly let it go I will give you All you need Like the farmer gives the earth It’s seed See how it grows Within your heart  With the beauty Only I impart Come to me Come to me And as the spirit grows From the depths of where you’ve been Keep this process a reminder Of the pain and suffering That I release As you grow Your spirit soars As you learn to let go and Come to me’ 08/02/26 clc “Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’ ”” John‬ ‭7‬:‭37‬-‭38‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ ““Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble ...

Wish Upon a Star

for Topher Little boy, you don’t know Each thought (of you)  that fills my mind Like a night just after sunset A thousand stars filling the sky Each star a different memory Like summer wishes come true Each time I take a moment And think of you When I miss you most I think of those stars  and I hold on tight To each and every moment As if I was right by your side. I love you Topher! Dad 07/25/26 clc

Open Eyes to Heaven

I fight  What’s within me  That pulls me to the dirt The lies and past reminders Those puss filled sores and hurts Opening my eyes to heaven Though I still don’t understand  How the maker of the universe  Would take notice of this small man And yet I pray  Streaming tears Lord, take away these fears That rise like a volcano Ready to spew out all my hope Storms that remind me I am never enough Oh, are you near  I beg you Please hear  my prayer. 07/20/26 clc

Many Pieces

My heart breaks to many Pieces on the floor In this land of plenty While others are asking for more How can I find solace If my heart truly believes? While others are dying from hunger and thirst And I have all I need And maybe that’s not the bigger problem So many die without the light And I go on through my day by day Feeling like I’m in the right When I haven’t lifted a finger I can say I have, but I haven’t really tried I can stand up upon my principles Or I can lay down my life and die To the world that I embrace Have to let that go And suffer within the feeling That all I have to do is show A little more of myself To those who have none Carry the message forward My work here is not done 07/15/26 clc

Dull Reflection

See my reflection In mirrored glass The man who stands there The one who has lasted Through every trial and tribulation Realizing beyond my gaze Through the faith I cling to One thing remains Maybe not a God of my understanding But the God who loves me so Tender arms of mercy Never letting go When I look deeply into the eyes Of the man who looks ahead Through all the tears I’ve cried I really should be dead But he anointed my soul with singing When I didn’t even have a voice Gave me wings to fly Then waited To show me how close I am to heaven Even while still on earth A word from him A gentle nudge Awakens my soul  Into his rebirth And in that mirror All that I see Is just dull reflection Of all he’s done for me 07/14/26 clc

One Little Sheep

Take these tears Flowing down my cheeks Hold my fears As I wail and weep Where are you, God? My body weary I’ve tried to cast All my anxieties But I just can’t last Where are you, God? Hope seems faint Like cloud covered earth And all I want Is to hear your words Where are you, God? pause pray You’re in the silence I just have to stop Remind myself I’m never lost And when I wake When I rise from sleep You still cover me Your love keeps Me whole  My feelings even Like the storm you calmed Inside settles I’m never on my own One little sheep Praying to keep… 07/13/26 clc

Dispelling the Lies

Waiting in the shadows  When we’re weak They tell us lies That eat at our humanity Push us to question why Why are we so small here? And in truth we really are But we’re not meant to dwell beyond His presence, yet we fell Into pride and worry binding  Our very insides can’t seem to break Away from what they sell us That says - you’ll never be ok And living there takes our spirit Opens up our desperate need For something greater Yet they tell us The world alone can fill please Then we’re left empty  From the hurt we thought would go away Our ‘gods’ couldn’t save us And we sink closer to the grave Until we find Peace In our mind From the only place That can hold us  Where our hope is truly found  Takes time  Even trusting the master  As we’re still living among the lies Looking up and calling out ‘Dear God, please help me find You among the chaos You among the lies You, please allow us To hear you as we cry” And in the silence - Seems he always waits unt...
