A Few Poems



Never Alone


Even if I where a lonely cloud

wandering

I would never really be alone

for Jesus is in my heart

and always will be.

I love Him, you know.

Not with a perfect love;

not the way I want to.

But I truly do love Him.

Even if I were a solitary

star glowing faintly,

I would not be all alone:

for the Great I Am is always with me.

Even though I am unworthy, so unworthy,

He is with me and He loves me so:

with a holy, pure, eternal love.

A love which I am only

beginning to grow in,

slow, o, so slowly.

So here I am, a human being,

alone in my me-ness;

alone in my uniqueness,

yet never alone.

I am misunderstood, yet Jesus understands.

Forgotten, yet remembered

by the Lord.

Swimming in my struggles

yet held close, so close by Him.

So yes, I may appear a lonesome sight;

a woman wandering in her own world,

silent and solitary,

wrapped in her thoughts.

Thoughts which He knows.

Following a path He walks with me

in a world which suddenly

seems a great deal less lonely

Because of Him.

Surrender


I want

to lay

this

poor

life

down:

surrender

all

each day.

I want

to lay

this

poor

life

down.

Lord,

give me

grace

I pray.

Only Jesus


I don't particularly care

whether you like this poem

or not.

You see,

I'm writing it for Jesus.

I'll be happy if it touches your heart,

but it's His smile I crave;

His well done I long for.

I love You, Lord.

Thank You for never giving up on me.

That's what I want to say.

Thank you dear soul for stopping by,

for taking the time to read

my little poem.

And by the way,

Do you know Jesus?

The Conversation. A Free Short Story

  The Conversation  Gavin was so absorbed in his book, that he barely noticed that the train had stopped at a station. "Mind if I sit here?" He looked up. A young woman with friendly freckles across her nose and wide brown eyes stood in the aisle. He nodded, then smiled faintly and she quickly stowed her large backpack. "I'm Sybil." The young woman offered. "Thanks." "No problem. Travelling to Barton?"  "Nope. It's Dunmore I'm headed for. You?" "Same." Gavin was cautious. He wasn't sure he felt like a chatty companion. He'd been looking forward to finishing his book. It had hooked him from the first chapter. But thankfully, Sybil didn't bubble on. She just smiled before taking her own book out.  Gavin went back to his reading, not without noticing that it was a Bible that Sybil had opened. Unusual.   Sybil glanced towards him. She liked to study people, and would often strike up a conversation in the ho...

Rapture Collection.

  Rapture Collection Dear Readers, Given the urgency of the times, I felt it on my heart to write this post. I have written several stories with a Rapture message. Below are links to three of them. You will find other references to the Rapture, or the great snatching away of the Bride, throughout the blog. I will also include a link to my testimony. Today is the day to repent and to call on Jesus to save you. With much love and prayers, Alison Waiting A Reason To Clean The Last Reminder My Testimony  (Scroll to view.

Not Much Time. Free Short Story.

  Years have gone by, yet the phone call still plays clear as a bell in my mind. "He needs to come home. Please tell him. There isn't much time." The thin, frail voice of the caller lent weight to the urgency of her call. No, there couldn't have been much time. "Daddy, a lady called. An old lady. She said there isn't much time." I tiptoed up to his armchair. I spoke softly, hesitantly. I was only a child, and I knew nothing of his past. "She says, she says, you must go home." "No!" The armchair shook with the force of his rage. "No! And don't talk to that woman again."  No further calls came from the frail-voiced lady. At least, not that I know of. *** Daddy was nearing the end. The end of a long, long battle. I was in my forties, married, and with children of my own. "Who was she Daddy?" I asked gently, hoping with God's help to bring him to a place of peace and forgiveness. But his face tightened and he t...
