Vignettes—Forgotten

The air chilled him to the bone. He pulled his coat tighter around himself as he walked, making his rounds. Another lonely night shift in the deserted office building, watching and waiting.

Vignettes—Insignificant

A breeze whipped up, swirling the dust on the dirt street outside her door. She looked at the ramshackle homes next to hers as she stood in the doorway.

Prayer Journey — Masterpiece

But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand. – Isaiah 64:8 Your hands, your touch, formed me. You placed your fingers on my life and crafted me. You continue to mold me with your gentle, loving touch. […]
