The Trembles of Love

I love the trembles I get when I think about You, Jesus,
Like golden ripples on an endless sea,
Like the hush of dawn breaking over the mountains,
Like the thrill of rain kissing the earth, setting my spirit free.

Holy Spirit, make them richer, deeper, stronger,
Turn them into rivers that rush with delight,
Let my soul quiver with Your gentle whispers,
As heaven's light unfolds in my sight.

I long to paint You a masterpiece, my Lord,
With colors unseen by mortal eyes,
A canvas drenched in hues of worship,
Where glory dances, and love never dies.

I’ll sketch the fire in Your eyes so bright,
And the mercy that drips from Your hands,
I’ll brush each stroke with trembling wonder,
As Your presence over my soul expands.

And when my colors have told their story,
I'll let my heart take up the pen,
To write a poem that sings of Your beauty,
A song of love beyond human ken.

A soul-soothing poem, soft as the river’s sigh,
A melody woven in stardust and grace,
Where angels pause in hushed devotion,
And heaven’s echoes fill this sacred space.

Then I will gather each note, each word, each shade,
And bind them in a song of surrender true,
A melody shaped by trembling hands,
A song of love, composed for You.

Is this something You would like, my Lord?
Would You sit with me as I paint, as I write, as I sing?
Would You whisper as I find the colors of heaven,
And play the tune that makes the stars ring?

For I love the trembles I get when I think about You, Jesus,
They are the love songs my spirit cries,
Holy Spirit, make them richer still,
Until they rise like incense to the skies.

A Prayer of Preparation for the Bride of Christ

Heavenly Father, I come before You in humility and surrender, desiring to be prepared as a spotless bride for my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Holy Spirit, I acknowledge that without You, I can do nothing. I need Your guidance daily—fashioning my heart, my mind, my emotions, and my very being to reflect the beauty and holiness of my Bridegroom. Clothe me in purity, righteousness, and grace. Teach me how to walk in reverence and wisdom, honoring Jesus in every word I speak, every thought I entertain, and every action I take. May my love for Him deepen each day, and may my obedience to His will be unwavering. Holy Spirit, help me steward the estate You have entrusted to me. Give me the strength, wisdom, and diligence to manage my responsibilities well, that all I have may glorify the Lord. Shape my emotions and desires so they align with His, and let my heart remain tender before Him.

Shades of Peace

The peace of God—so vast, so deep, It sings to me when I’m asleep. In dreams it flows, in visions bright, A river soft, a guiding light. One Spirit, one peace, yet oh, so wide, A thousand shades, yet none divide. Gentle whispers, quiet streams, Golden stillness wrapped in dreams. It walks with me through waking hours, Filling moments, breathing flowers. In every thought, in every beat, Its sacred hush is calm and sweet. The world may turn, the storms may rise, Yet peace remains, unshaken, wise. It crowns my heart, it holds my soul, In perfect rest, in full control. Morning breaks, and there it stays, Soft as dawn’s first golden rays. Night returns, yet still it keeps, A love that guards, a peace that speaks. No space untouched, no time unfilled, This peace of God—so strong, so still. One Spirit, one love, unbreakable chain, Forever ruling, forever the same.

Teach Me, Holy Spirit

Dear Father, how do You keep loving When creation forgets You, when Your children stray? How do You remain faithful When hearts grow cold and turn away? The plants don’t all rot in one day, The sun still rises, the rivers still run, Your mercy renews with every breath I take, A silent song sung by the morning sun. How do You sustain when we are faithless? How do You hold when we slip through Your hands? Your love is not shaken, not weary, not broken, Your patience unravels what man misunderstands. Teach me, Holy Spirit, make me like You, To love when it hurts, to hold when they fall, To shine in the night when darkness is heavy, To whisper of grace when they don’t hear Your call. I tried to detach myself from love, Then my heart stopped beating, my spirit grew cold, But numbness is death in disguise, And I longed to feel, to break free from its hold. Yet with deep feeling comes deep sorrow, And love opens doors where pain walks through, But still, You rejoice, You dance, You laugh, Eve...
