Biblical Truth, Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

No finer hymn of praise exists on earth
Than that which rises from a soul redeemed.
Through shadows thick with grief, it finds its voice,
A quiet strength that echoes far beyond
The chains it broke, the weight it cast aside.
Each breath becomes a testament to grace,
A song not carved in stone but lived aloud,
Where once was silence, now a pulse of light.
The world may clamor with its hollow tunes,
But none can match the stillness of this joy,
A melody that flows from wounds made whole.

A Living Hymn Of Praise: Sonnet by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

No finer hymn of praise can earth bestow
Than souls redeemed from shadows deep and dire,
Their voices lift where once they sank so low,
A living song to set the heart afire.
Through trials fierce, their spirits found release,
A grace unearned that broke the chains apart,
From silence born, their anthems never cease,
Each note a pulse of joy within the heart.
The world may sing with fleeting, shallow cheer,
But none can match this music’s holy strain,
A testament to mercy drawing near,
A melody forged strong through loss and pain.
So let the heavens hear their glad refrain,
For redeemed souls outshine the stars’ domain.

There is no finer hymn to raise,
A living song of joy supreme,

Now shining bright in grace’s gleam

How Faith Commands the Mountain’s Fall by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

Through valleys deep where shadows cling and stay,
A mountain looms, its peak a daunting sight,
Its granite heart defies the sun’s warm rays,
A testament to nature’s boundless might.
Yet faith, a whisper-soft, begins to stir,
A seed of trust within the soul takes root,
It speaks to stone, unyielding as it were,
And bids the crags dissolve beneath its suit.
No hammer falls, no chisel carves the way,
But belief alone unwinds the ancient hold,
The ridge retreats, the summit fades to gray,
A miracle in quiet strength retold.
So faith, with gentle force, remakes the land,
And moves the world with an unseen hand.

The Carpenter’s Hands in Dust and Divinity by Debbie Harris

Christian Poetry, Inspirational, jesus

His hands, sun-scorched, grip cedar’s knotted grain,
Splinters pierce skin, blood beads like ruby dew,
The chisel bites, wood curls in fragrant pain,
A rough-hewn plank bends sleek beneath his hew.
Sawdust swirls gold in shafts of molten light,
Sweat stings his brow, a salty river flows,
The mallet thuds, a pulse through Galilee’s night,
Olive wood glows, its amber heart exposed.
A table gleams, its edges sharp with fire,
A yoke takes shape, smoothed soft as whispered breath,
Through dust and din, his craft lifts toil higher,
Foreshadowing his victory over death.
In every groove, the carpenter’s hands sing,
A maker’s love carved deep in every ring.

A Babe, A Prophet, A Redeemer, A King by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

A babe was born beneath a quiet sky,
So small, so frail, in swaddling gently laid,
A son of man, yet heaven’s own reply,
In whom the ancient promises were paid.
A redeemer sent, though kings knew not his face,
He came to break the chains of sin’s dark reign,
Foretold by seers through time’s unyielding space,
A light to heal the world’s unyielding pain.
The scrolls of old had whispered of this day,
When God would dwell with mortals here below,
A child to lead the lost and show the way,
Through sacrifice, redemption’s seed to sow.
Fulfilled, the word of prophets brightly rings,
A babe, a son—our hope, our King of kings.

When Heaven Watched the Savior’s Birth Unfold in Glory Bright and Bold by Debbie Harris

Christ Centered Devotionals, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

When heaven gazed upon the earth below,
A star awoke to light the midnight air,
A babe was born where silent winds did blow,
In Bethlehem, so humble, yet so fair.
The angels sang with joy beyond compare,
Their voices rang through realms of endless skies,
A Savior come, a child of grace so rare,
In manger laid, beneath celestial eyes.
The firmament, with wonder, did arise,
To see the Word made flesh in infant frame,
A king disguised in meekness, small in size,
Yet destined to redeem and bear our shame.
So heaven smiled, its glory softly spilled,
A babe, a Son, with love the world fulfilled.

The Grave and Dangerous Practice of Women Pastors Usurping Sacred Authority by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

When sacred order bends to fleeting whim,
And women seize the shepherd’s holy rod,
The flock, confused, strays far from Heaven’s hymn,
Their path obscured by mists that cloak their God.

The Word, eternal, carved in timeless stone,
Appoints the man to guard the altar’s flame,
Yet pride usurps what Scripture calls its own,
And builds a throne where folly stakes its claim.

The pulpit shakes, its roots begin to tear,
When gentle voice pretends to wield the sword,
For chaos reigns where truth should rightly bear,
And shepherds falter, lost to Christ the Lord.

So grave the sin, so dire the cost we see,
When God’s design bows to humanity.

Hymn Of Praise: For All Christ Has Done by Debbie Harris

Biblical Truth, Christian Poetry, Inspirational

O Savior dear, we lift our voice,
In humble thanks, our hearts rejoice,
For all Thy love hath freely giv’n,
The path to grace, the hope of heav’n. 

Upon the cross, Thy blood was shed,
For sinners lost, Thy life was led,
The chains of sin Thou broke apart,
And mended every wayward heart. 

Triumphant rose the Son of Man,
Fulfilled the Father’s holy plan,
Death’s sting is gone, the grave undone,
Through Christ, eternal life is won.
 
All praise to Thee, our King divine,
Thy mercy flows, Thy glories shine,
Forevermore we’ll sing Thy name,
For all Thou hast done, we proclaim!
