Reverence our Redeemer
I have always held in kind regard my kinsmen, the Maori people of New Zealand. Here comes one of the greatest Moari singers of all time, Sir Howard Morrison, singing the beautiful hymn, “Whakaaria Mai” or as we know it “How Great Thou Art” on the occasion of a visit to New Zealand by Elizabeth, …
Time
Time. Time is life. Time is measured in this life only. It is fleeting. The moments taken to write this post are immediately in the past, never to be regained. Shall we not make the most of it while we have it? Priorities? Which of us as parents would not give our lives for our …

Inspired poetry is the song of the heart; it comes from on High. Through poetry so inspired, we hear answers to questions deep and profound. But such answers come not to the mind wallowing in filth, for the Lord will cast no pearls before swine. Listen O man, for that which is of deep import …
Inspired Poetry, Song of the Heart
