Book excerpt: 31 full-page, full-color Scripture images complement the short devotions that fill this unique "coffee table" devotional. In its pages, you'll discover that peace can transcend circumstances. "Everyday Praise" explores the practice and blessings of praise through meditations consisting of biblical insights; the author's personal testimonies and observations; probing questions and applications; and heart-felt prayers of praise. The vibrant images pull you into each encouraging word. Reminder phrases accent the point of each message. Each entry in "Everyday Praise" reads quickly but probes deeply, as a catalyst to spiritual growth.Too often we believe we have to endure life. Yet in Christ Jesus, we can find joy and peace even in the midst of difficult circumstances. But that's only possible when our focus shifts from those circumstances to the One who promises to be our strength ... our hope. That's where praise comes in. We all face struggles. Hard times will come. When it does is, we often wonder, "How can I praise God in the middle of this mess?" It's a question I've asked. Maybe you have too. Because praising God comes easy during life's grand moments. Yet, in the difficult ones, glorifying Him can just as easily be forgotten. However, that's precisely the time we need to worship! God deserves praise. God commands praise. Christians need to praise! Reflecting on God's unchanging nature offers a reminder of His faithfulness when storms hit. Singing hymns of truth provides an oasis when you find yourself in the desert. Remembering the promises of God brings daily challenges into perspective. Begin to gain greater peace as you practice praising God with this unique gift book. Two additional sections in "Everyday Praise" will further immerse you into this idea of praise. The first pulls out each reminder phrase for ease of memorization. While the second lists 31 additional Bible verses to incorporate into your daily praise habit.Move a little further along the path of peace and contentment as you open the pages of "Everyday Praise," and begin exploring and cultivating the habit of daily praise.(A download link to a free companion journal is also provided in the book.)

Excerpt: ... toiling bees: From the green marge of lake and stream, Fresh vale and mountain sod, They look in gentle glory forth, --The pure sweet flowers of God. They come, with genial airs and skies, In summer's golden prime, And to the stricken world give back Lost Eden's blissful clime: Outshining Solomon they come, And go full soon away; But yet, like him, they meekly breathe True wisdom while they stay. "If God," they whisper, "smiles on us, And bids us bloom and shine, Does He not mark, O faithless man! Each wish and want of thine? Think, too, what joys await in Heaven The blest of human birth, When rapture such as woos thee now Can reach the bad on earth!" Redeemer of a fallen race, Most merciful of kings, Thy hallowed words have clothed with power Those frail and beauteous things: All taught by Thee, they yearly speak Their message of deep love, Bidding us fix, for life and death, Our hearts and hopes above. J. G. Lyons. THE ROYAL BANNERS. The Royal Banners forward go; The Cross shines forth in mystic glow; Where He in flesh, our flesh Who made, Our sentence bore, our ransom paid. There whilst He hung, His sacred Side By soldier's spear was opened wide, To cleanse us in the precious flood Of Water mingled with His Blood. Fulfilled is now what David told In true prophetic song of old, How God the heathen's King should be; For God is reigning from the tree. THE ROYAL BANKERS. O tree of glory, tree most fair, Ordained those Holy Limbs to bear! How bright in purple robe it stood, The purple of a Saviour's Blood! Upon its arms, like balance true, He weighed the price for sinners due, --The price which none but He could pay, --And spoiled the spoiler of his prey. To Thee, Eternal Three in One, Let homage meet by all be done: As by...
Download or read book Praise Song for My Children written by Patricia Jabbeh Wesley and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise Song for My Children celebrates twenty-one years of poetry by one of the most significant African poets of this century. Patricia Jabbeh Wesley guides us through the complex and intertwined highs and lows of motherhood and all the roles that it encompasses: parent, woman, wife, sister, friend. Her work is deeply personal, drawing from her own life and surroundings to convey grief, the bleakness of war, humor, deep devotion, and the hope of possibility. These poems lend an international voice to the tales of motherhood, as Wesley speaks both to the African and to the Western experience of motherhood, particularly black motherhood. She pulls from African motifs and proverbs, utilizing the poetics of both the West and Africa to enrich her striking emotional range. Leading us to the depths of mourning and the heights of tender love, she responds to American police brutality, writing "To be a black woman is to be a woman, / ready to mourn," and remembers a dear friend who is at once "mother and wife and friend and pillar / and warrior woman all in one." Wesley writes poetry that moves with her through life, land, and love, seeing with eyes that have witnessed both national and personal tragedy and redemption. Born in Tugbakeh, Liberia and raised in Monrovia, Wesley emigrated to the United States in 1991 to escape the Liberian civil war. In this moving collection, she invites us to join her as she buries loved ones, explores long-distance connection through social media, and sings bittersweet praises of the women around her, of mothers, and of Africa.
Download or read book This Crazy Devotion written by Philip Terman and published by Broadstone Books. This book was released on 2020-08 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Jewish Studies. Philip Terman's latest poetry collection, THIS CRAZY DEVOTION, begins appropriately enough with "Tormented Meshuggenehs," "the crazy sages... / who dervished across the hayfields / and paused to yawp a parable to the cows about the seven beggars..." This passage announces much about the poetry that follows: that its craziness indeed is of the order of devotion in the spiritual sense, rooted in Judaism; and also that it often takes place in bucolic surroundings, rooted in the land. And why is this a little surprising, this conjunction of Jewish life and rural setting? For Terman they are seamless and sacred, and by portraying his Jewishness as woven through a life and landscape familiar to many (non-Jewish) readers, he dispels stereotypes and creates a community of mutual recognition and understanding. That would be virtue enough to applaud this collection, but it offers many other pleasures. "I am talking about this world, there is no other," he declares in the long and lovely meditative "Garden Chronicle" that forms the final section of the book. Such a world it is, full of all of the things to which he is crazily devoted, all of the things he writes about with such acuity and tenderness in these poems: heritage and faith, social justice, poetry, and even (in the title poem) almost meeting Bob Dylan--but foremost, his family and nature, both of which sustain him. He communes with ancestors, a grandfather he was too young to remember, who must have sung to him in Yiddish (and who, he supposes, just might have posed for Chagall). He imagines the radio interview his father might have given, replete with Borscht Belt humor, and recalls going for bagels with "the schlemiel... / who dated your sister-in-law / after your brother died." He devotes the second section, "Of Longing and Chutzpah," to memories of his mother, and in one of the most humorous and poignant moments recalls how in childhood his mother cut his hair to save money, an act Terman likens to "sculpting" him into all the things she might have wished him to be, "the boy she wants to be a mensch." (Based on the accounting he gives here, she succeeded. She also carved out a considerable poet.) Most of all, he writes of "The love of the long married," of children "at the kitchen table / doing homework," waiting on a school bus which arrives bearing all the hopes and happiness in the world. He gives the last word to the daughter whose question "After Later?" signifies "no set time, farther than the horizon, / on top of the sky, around the bend, outside this moment we're in" when, perhaps "all those things they said would happen / must surely have occurred." Such a lovely description of faith, so worthy of devotion.

Download or read book Timeless Devotional Poetry written by Elizabeth McCallum Marlow and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology covers thirteen centuries of Christian poetry from the ancient Dream of the Rood to modern poems by T. S. Eliot and C. S. Lewis. I can think of no one better qualified to assemble an anthology of Christian devotional poetry than Elizabeth Marlow. She not only knows this poetry well but has taught it for many years to appreciative students. Best of all, she loves and serves the Lord to whom the poems in this collection direct the gaze of our souls. With this anthology, she has given us a tool with which to stir up the embers of our hearts, that our love for the triune God might blaze all the brighter. I highly recommend this collection. —Greg Bailey, Director of Editorial, Crossway Books I am chastened by comments in the preface to this book: “If we don’t read, reflect on, and enjoy the great wealth of Christian poetry available to us, these poetic gems will eventually be consigned to academic libraries and forgotten by the majority of the reading public.” Apart from reading and singing psalms and hymns, I have not been an avid reader of poetry. I confess this to my shame, and recently I determined to address this appalling shortcoming in my life. Elizabeth Marlow’s anthology of poetry is the ideal antidote. I am excited to recommend this anthology of thirteen centuries of English poetry. Just look at the table of contents, and your appetite will be whetted. So join me in learning to love God better by reading these selections. —Dr. Joseph A. Pipa, President of Greenville Theological Seminary, Professor of Systematic and Homiletical Theology, Greenville, SC
