More DescriptionThe forty-nine scriptures, fifty-seven reflections, and eighty-eight poems in this book-IN THAT PLACE CALLED DAY-will open the door to your heart. The author draws on the writings of Watchman Nee, Oswald Chambers, and Martyn Lloyd-Jones for inspiration. The journey with our Lord takes us to that wonderfully freeing place where He is the mainspring of our lives. Themes in this book included: dealing with disappointment, abandonment, fear, forgiveness, God's role, our role, loving God, and following Christ. Some poem titles are: "Ode to Saturday," "Bookends of Our Day," "Newton's Apple," "I Never Met a Perfect Person," and "The Journey to Be Real." As an example, here is one poem: 83. "God Will" Once, when you were all alone,No one came -- not one.God did.Once, when you could not carry the burden,No one showed up to assist you -- not one.God did.Once, when you felt rejected,No one refuted the lie -- not one.God did.Once, when you stumbled and fell,No one picked you up --not one.God did.Once when you shared your heart,No one acted as if he or she heard you -- not one.God did.When your life is over,No one will be able to walk you to the other side -- not one.But, God will. Therefore, let us rejoice in all those times that we felt forsaken by othersBecause through them, we are better prepared for God's great ending.
