WHEN JESUS WEPT
Jesus wept with heartbroken Mary and Martha. Jesus wept at Gethsemane, Believers wept at their loss. Someday it is the accusers who will wept.

BOYHOOD OF JESUS
Wonder what Jesus's boyhood was like? Since He came and lived as human flesh, perhaps he enjoyed what most boys enjoy. It also must have been a time of preparation. If we want to know Jesus we must do so in our heart. We don't need portraits.

Three Days
A short poem contrasting the three days of the birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus, and linking them together in their eternal context.
