Shelter in the Night                            May 10

Seeking shelter from pain in the night prompts worship through verse in modern-day psalms.

Blurb:

Do you ever awaken in the middle of the night, beset by thoughts of the worries of the day? Do you ever awaken with the feeling that God wants you to pray for someone or some thing? Do you pray, flounder in your prayer or immediately fall back to sleep?

Through the verses of Shelter in the Night, volume 1 in the Worship through Verse devotionals, the author pours out sorrows and joys much like the Old Testament psalmists. Whether you need shelter or reassurance, this collection can bring peace, hope and solace.

Psalm147:5 Great is our Lord and mighty in power;

his understanding has no limit.

 

Mighty and Trustworthy

 

Great and powerful God

You made heaven and earth

Your name is the Lord

Who reigns over all

 

Mighty are Your works

Why should You care for me?

Nothing is too hard for You

My place is not to ask why

 

I trust and ask forgiveness

For the wrongs I have done

You give good things

You made me with fear and wonder

 

I look at You with fear and wonder

You made the moon and stars

I tremble at Your holiness

And worship with all my heart.



Looking Beyond Self                        May 17

Looking beyond self and the world’s grievances prompts modern-day psalms, worship through verse. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Looking-Beyond-Worship-Through-Verse-ebook/dp/B0D34HL51F/

Psalm 103:5

Who satisfies your desires with good things

so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

 

The Gift of Nature

 

My Creator God gives through the outdoors

The warmth of sun on my face blesses me

 

Nothing soothes like the natural world

A big sky in layers of varied blue

 

Life in birds and four-legged scampers

The scree of a red-tailed hawk lifts me

 

Wind soughing through the pines

Replaces distress with tranquility

 

Thank You, Creator God

For blessing me with country

 

Life pulses and surrounds me even after

Leaves have undressed the trees

 

The variety of woodpeckers

Accent an orchestra of birdsong

 

My Creator God speaks

With the kiss of a whispering breeze.




Gratitude for All Moments              June 14

Meeting the Lord through modern-day psalms prompts heart gratitude and worship through verse. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gratitude-Moments-Worship-Through-Verse-ebook/dp/B0D3SY9CBH

Psalm 32:7

You are my hiding place; you will protect me

from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.

 

My Hiding Place

 

O, sing to the Lord

Find solace in Him

 

The world disappears

Whenever I sing praises

 

Troubles dim, fears abate

You are my hiding place

 

Singing lifts my soul

Only my Lord exists

 

My heart soars in joy

As angelic voices join in song

 

The heavenly choir replaces earth

Someday I’ll be there for real

 

O, sing to the Lord

I find solace in Him.


Finding Peace and Strength             June 28

Where else to turn when strength is gone and peace is fleeting, but God’s Word? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Finding-Peace-Strength-Worship-Through-ebook/dp/B0D3SVXB6J

Isaiah 12:2

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid.

The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;

he has become my salvation.

 

God is the One

 

God is the One

  With Him on my side,

    I trust without fear

 

You are He who saves,

  My strength and song

    And my safe place

 

It’s all about You,

  My only Lord God,

    My only salvation

 

I praise and sing

  To You, my Lord

    You are my sustenance

 

Trust without fear

  As You go with me

    God is the One.

Phooey Kerflooey: Three Kids And A Puppy vs The Squirrel Of The Apocalypse by Kristen Joy Wilkes

Kristen says "Once upon a time, our family of three young boys welcomed a princess into our home. A furry princess, a princess who ended up weighing more than they did, was terrified of haybales and bags of chicken feed, and refused to drink out of anything but her own special mug. Our boys were charmed by their puppy princess and asked that I write a story based on her. It took me seven years, but finally I present to you  Phooey Kerflooey ! While our own boys delighted in Princess Leia Freyja’s scaredy-cat antics and princess ways, the boys in the story take a bit longer to appreciate Phooey’s gifts. However, I pray that you will enjoy their journey together as they battle the squirrel of the apocalypse and search for perfect peace amidst a storm of chaos. " And I loved this one. It's gone straight back into the TBR pile. A puppy will fix everything.  A boring new house?  Boring house + puppy = adventure!    An attacking squirrel?  Evil squirrel + puppy =...

The Time for Healing by Ramona K Cecil

Winner - Best in Fiction Indiana Faith and Writing Contest 2014 Ginny Red Fawn McLain is determined to hold fast to her adoptive Shawnee culture despite her sudden reentry into her white birth family. She rejects their Christianity, fearing the tenets of the white man’s religion will prevent her from practicing as a Shawnee medicine woman. But her heart refuses to shun her uncle’s young friend and apprentice minister, Jeremiah Dunbar.   Jeremiah Dunbar has never doubted what he would do with his life—he’d follow in his father’s footsteps as a minister of the Gospel. But a mission trip west to the Native American tribes makes him begin to question his future plans. At the discovery of his fellow missionary’s long lost niece living among the Shawnee, Jeremiah is immediately smitten. But unless Ginny Red Fawn McLain joins Christ’s fold—something she adamantly resists—Jeremiah will have to choose between the woman he loves and the work God has called him to do.    G...

Phooey Kerflooey vs The Battle Squirrel by Kristen Joy Wilks

  Phooey Kerflooey has finally found a home of her own. Too bad a raging squirrel found it first! Rasputin the squirrel spends his time stealing snacks, pooing on the counters, and biting tender noses. Phooey’s perfect home has become a perfect storm of chaos! Phooey will do anything for her boys. Almost step on the shiny floor. Mostly go potty outside. Bite a baby carrot in half. Maybe two carrots, or even three! The boys want Phooey to chase Rasputin and save the day, but it’s hard when so many scary things stand in her way. If only Phooey had her pink dolly to boost her bravery. Can Phooey find her courage and chase that bad squirrel out of their lives forever? Maybe tomorrow. Or the day after that. For sure by next week. Phooey will be very brave . . . someday. Theme verse: Isaiah 32:18--My people will live in peaceful dwelling places, in secure homes, in undisturbed places of rest. My review:  Phooey is back in this wonderful story of the puppy v the battle squirrel. Havi...
