Priceless

plr-price-tag In my blog I try to expose, reveal and show sides of my life that lets you in on who I am. I do this through stories about my family, struggles with being a dad, husband and brother.
I showcase my "talents" with the hope that you get a multi-faceted picture of my life...yep, even BAD SHEEP is an attempt to that end.

I've shared poetry before but I'm a little shy about it, I don't consider myself a poet but rather a person who writes poetry. I write poetry, in spurts mostly, because it's a way I connect to the Father. It's like a personal psalm…that's why it's a little private to me.

Some of you are excellent poets, wonderful wordsmiths and I tip my beret to you (hear my fingers snapping?). I offer this this as a psalm of worship today to a Father who loves us deeply. He's drawing us back to the heart of worship every moment of every day. He has made us priceless.

Blessings,
Jay

Priceless

I walk across a bridge of sighs
It seems a joyless journey
Faith in past stories
produces a gift of change
Like antique jewelry
with future value
Priceless
I am adorned, crowned
Priceless
I cross again
Laying it all down
at the feet of the One
Who made me
Priceless
