Quiet Time Encouragement -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
Rejoicing Retreat
There are those nights
Before a day off
When I awaken
At 3:30 AM
UGH
And toss and turn
And snort, snuffle and itch
Hoping for sleep
Yet wrestling with awakeness...
Today, I chose to get up
Grainy eyed, not sure
I've been asleep
To say nothing of...

Heart Issues Highlighted Here -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
Heart of Obsidian Stone
I don't know the fire you've been through
To make your heart black glass
Don't know which heartaches tempered you
Or the trauma in your past
I only know the promise
Made by the faithful One
His words are true, powerful
If you call on God's own Son

Like a Little Girl -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
Like a Little Girl
She was going to see her family,
Her mom, her sister and her dad, once again
Happy, happy was she!
Her Mom's birthday was coming
And she wanted to take Mom some flowers.
She knew where there was a flower place nearby,
Where she could pick them up
Just...

Going Deeper in Him -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
In Returning
In returning,
Let the old impurities
Become dross to be skimmed off
By Your quick, gentle hand.
In returning,
Let me be dealt with
In Your love,
That I don't deserve.
In returning,
I give You only that
Which is mine to give
Yet even those things...

Fruitful Praise Poems by Marijo -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
October Praise
I give October praise to You
A fruitful harvest
From my past year in Jesus
Pure adoration and praise sung
From sunset's rosy magenta
Across the cloud scattered sky
Blown like pearly leaves
By autumn's tingling wind
Let Your Holy Spirit's wind

The Raising of Lazarus -
Anne Linington(190) 
On their knees they weep and cry
As in the grave their loved one lies
Type of all that ever mourn
Who have deepest sorrow borne
Comfortless in loss and woe
Undiminished pain they know
Laid 'mong others now long dead
Marked by tombstones at their hea

Still Lost, But Closer -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
When I was little
I used to sit through talent shows
Anticipating every act
And counting those to follow
Halfway through the countdown began
And I'd be sadder when each
Successive act was finished
(Except of course at my sister's
Piano recitals when I couldn't wait
To leave)...

My Cry
Jesus, Jesus, Holy and anointed One, Jesus
Help me to return to sit at your feet
Daily, Lord Jesus

More Jesus, less me, please?

My heart of hearts again
Renew You, in me
Me lesser, You greater each hour
I want...

Dark Clouds -
Cheery Blossom(25)Sometimes there are dark, dismal clouds
That seem to cover our way;
And it’s very hard to remember
All the “Son” of yesterday.
But, behind those dreary clouds,
The “Son” is extra bright!
For His love is always there,
To guide us through...

JESUS and Without Jesus -

JESUS
Your name is our prayer,
Our hope
Our escape from despair

In mighty armor of God
Only then can we walk
As we go forth
To Jesus talk
In our Jerusalem
We fail
And often times
We...

Marijo Phelps(198) 
FEEL the Emptiness without Jesus (written before I was saved)

It’s a numb nothingness that I feel
A nothingness that can't be touched

While I try to squeeze out
The loneliness drop by drop
How can I...

Without Him, Where Are We? -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
Hopelessness
Rain pounds on the windows,
Yet it can never get in.
It is like some people
Knocking on closed doors
Failing to realize
That they will never open.
It is pitiful to those
Who are on the inside
Watching the rain's fruitless
Yet incessant drive.
They know...

One of THOSE Days? -
Marijo Phelps(198) 
Burdened
Lord, I came to You today
Laden with a basket of heavy tears

And as we talked
You hugged me warm
In Your Sonshine
As my Jesus smiled
Each tear became a rainbow
With the promise of Your peace.
Soon You lifted...

Only individual...

And you asked me,
As tears streamed down my face

That only my soul
Could grasp it held tight
To the hand which was " doing to help "
Just by...

But my love for You,
The lover of my soul.
And I wondered at my depression...

Prejudices few
Humble yet proud,

Upon Him
Enough lately
And are...

Clothed in delicate scent
Of miracles of changed hearts remembered
He imparts to me
His renewing...
