Welcome!



I finally decided to do an in-depth study of Oswald Chambers’ “My Utmost for His Highest” because my husband recommended it without reservation. My husband is very intelligent and well read and, while I am no slouch in those departments, I usually prefer lighter fare. “My Utmost for His Highest” is anything but light, so as I read each daily devotional, I process it through my poetry. The purpose of the book is to help people to get closer to God and I really want that closer relationship. I want to share my unique perspective on each day’s selection plus some of my other poems and insights.

September 7 - Fountains of Blessings

Lord,
Make me a fountain of blessings,
Through which living waters flow.
The more blessings You pour through me,
The more my blessings will grow.

This bubbling fountain of blessings
Needs constant attention and care.
It processes all of Your goodness
Making sure there is plenty to share.

Help me stay true to You, Jesus,
Break down any barriers in me,
So my fountain of blessings continues
To flow through ever steadfastly.

It is a well known but little utilized fact that generously giving will result in receiving blessings.  Not giving and not sharing blessings can be a hindrance to anyone who wants to have a fountain of God's blessings.
