Bursting With Love

Bursting In Love
Click here to see full size




I await Thee,
O Precious Love
I hunger... I thirst...
Let the dew minister to me
Thine moisture upon Thine locks
Pour out the honey of Thine lips
Knocking still...
I'm dripping from the rain
Where art Thou my Love
How much Thy windows above
Filling me with joy
I can see Thee skipping upon clouds
When shalt Thou come forth
Hurry, oh hurry, Sweet Love
Leap through the green meadows
Dancing to an harp played tune
My heart is thumping loudly for You
Ah... yes, Love is in full bloom
Awaken north wind, and south
Blow upon Thine pleasant fruits
Savouring Thine cup of Delight
For the time is come
And Love is Awakened
And shall sleep no more

God Can See Our Hearts

He Sees My Heart


God can see our heart.
He knows every intent of even every intention. He knows even the things we try to hide from others around us and the world. He sees it all. He knows it all. God knows me! God lives in me! And I belong unto The Lord Most High Almighty God. My heart is already like a transparent street of gold before Him. He knows every detail and secret part. He knows every secret I have. He knows every secret I've kept and every one I may have not kept. The Lord Most High and Mighty knows me and He has chosen to love me anyway. He knows every trial I've faced. And He knows every tear that has fallen from mine eyes.... He knows me!
Every part of light... He sees! Every part of dark... He sees! Nothing is hidden from Him! He Knows Everything! God lives in me and I am His own! I have chosen Him and He has chosen me!
I love Him for Who He is and what He stands for... His righteousness and ways; His laws, ordinances and precepts.
The Most High And Mighty is Amazing. He is Awesome! He Is!
I Love You Lord!

Lifting Up Unto Thee

Lifting Up To You

Oil Painting


Lifting Up Unto Thee

The storm comes
Yet I cease to be still
I slowly climb
UP, UP, UP
To You my Love
I gasp for breath
From the distress
And struggle to gain
Yet affliction is nothing
To a moment with You
Lifting my heart to view
To catch a glimpse of You
Quickly to and fro
I mesmerize the rows
Of tranquil stated time
Of glistening light
The taste of sweet wine
I yearn so deeply within
To feel and know again
A passionate kiss of Love
An heavenly rose for You
Capturing a state of growth
I feel a secluded note
Suddenly taken away
My remembrance of the day
How fair You are to me
Like a flutter in the rain
A dash of purity in salt
Shake upon my soul
Lifting me up to You
The struggle melts away
Passion flowing my way
Once again.... I'm in Love
With my Love, My Dove
My Beloved King
He purges me in kindness
That He has shown to me
Speak my Sweet Savour
My Divine Flame of Fire
Fill me with Thine Favour
Flavour me with Thine salt
Come quickly lest forever
Becomes only thy thought

Missing You




Longing for my Home
I desire You my Love
My Anchor and Rock
I savor precious moments
In Your Presence
Graceful Memories
I taste Thine Light
Lonely in waiting for Thee
Desiring Your Touch
To dance in Thine Might
With my Divine Love
Come to me Fire
Consume me tonight
Your sacrifice waiting
I grasp my deep love
Feelings overwhelming
Come quickly my Dove
I miss You desperately
Can't bear to be without You
Wanting and desiring You
So much....
My heart beats for You alone
My One and Only True Love

Altered Playing Cards

Bruised Amplify
Splendor Cared For
Deep Thought Flourishing

Happy Helper Pink Star
Resting Sun Power
Sweet Dreams Stary Blue

Star Princess Wink

This is a group of Altered Playing Cards I made over the holiday seasons. I decided to try something other that my usual ATC (Artist Trading Card). A couple of the cards(#5 and 10) are stamped images, but the rest of them I drawed the pictures on. The idea was to not alter it so much that you could not tell it was a playing card. These were so much fun to make. I will definately be making more in the future.
Hope you are inspired to go make your own APCs :).
Blessings, peace, and love to all!

Carrying Love

Carrying Love



Though I bare much
I shall not be ashamed
Oh how I wait for Thee
My Beloved One
Gather me in great mercies
Everlasting kindness be upon me
My love is not wroth
He will never depart from me
My stones are fair and pleasant
Sapphires surround me
I am established in Thee
My soul yearns deeply
I travail so quickly
Pains have taken me
Let me not be shamed
I am smitten by Thee
Oh Great Love
Why hast Thou forsaken me
Turn not away
Please notice me
I have brought forth
Time is become my enemy
If I could conquer time
Surely I'd be next to Thee
Let Light come forth
Rise upon me
Be seen upon me
Take away my reproach
Thine beauty for my ashes
No more heaviness
Thou shalt cover me
With Thy feathers
For You are my Reward
My eternal crown of glory

Longing For You

Longing For You



I long for You to come
I live to dream of Your embrace
You are my Holy Love
You are my source of grace
I breath into the sky
Songs of passionate thoughts
Healing in Your Arms
Impressioned by Your face
Your light is my Divine
My future is solely Yours
The King of my heart
My exceedingly Great Reward
I am so in love with you
Waiting for Your move
Catch me in Your grasp
Moments spent with You

Locked Away

Locked Away


Penitent years
Time was melting
I studied within
In theorized reasonings
I came broken apart
Tenderly mourning
Surviving the tension
Switching from dark
Climbing the stairway
Of awaiting restoration
Confinement til destiny
Unto my beautiful heart
I release you...

Walking on Solomon's Porch

Walking on Solomon's Porch


Where art Thou...my True Love
Why hidest Thou from me
I have knocked so endlessly
Please come unto me
My heart weeps and mourns
At Your absence
I just can't live without Thee
My heart pounds so vehemently
Like a rushing river of passion
I shall cleave unto Thee
My delightful One
In Whom I truly seek
At night I dream of Your Touch
At day I sit beneath Our tree
A reminisce of Your Face
Burns deep inside of me
Longing for Your caress
Shall I put on my white dress
And dance around in dreams
Into Your Courts I shall fly
For You are my Beloved King
My sweet Rose of Sharon
Why hidest Thou from me
