Friday, January 30, 2015. Experience has taught me well;. There is no sequestered peace,. If on my own I tie the sail. The tempest does not cease. It's only when I've gone to Him.

Bibles for Haiti: Despicable
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2015/01/despicable.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2015. I think often of the idea of a man like me standing for a God like Him. An ambassador of Christ? With mud and sweat and scruf and sin, half blind and achy all over. It's laughable, despicable really, were it not that it points to such Amazing Grace. Think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. Daniel C. Elliott. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bibles For Haiti Donation.

Bibles for Haiti: The Space for Prayer
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-space-for-prayer.html
Thursday, January 29, 2015. The Space for Prayer. In a rebuke from a brother. There must be space for prayer. To know that words are said to build. And never meant to tear. Words do quake to sound and speak. And yet I bid them mute and meek. The heart itself must be revealed. The statement signed, delivered, sealed. When now no stone is left unturned. The humble brew does steep,. To learn what might be yet unlearned,. How wide, long, high and deep. Daniel C. Elliott. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Bibles for Haiti: Prayers for Peace
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2014/12/prayers-for-peace.html
Sunday, December 14, 2014. The government here seems to be standing on sinking sand. With all the hasty remarks that have began to take flight, please pray for peace and for the memory of the words that aren't meant for such to be forgotten and laid to rest in an unmarked grave. Fools are best to keep themselves silent, lest they open their mouths and remove all doubt. But it’s for those with wisdom and understanding to. Daniel C. Elliott. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Bibles for Haiti: Words Unspoken
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2015/07/words-unspoken.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. The words that drive the deepest knife. And leave the soul so broken. Live in the grief and pain and strife. Of the silent words unspoken. Be mindful of the words you say. Yet more so of those you spare,. Because both yet speak to a heart. That needs to know you care. When you look upon a rose. Freshly plucked and in the vase. Its beauty or wither shows,. Written there upon your face. Not in the present circumstance. Of that lonely flower there,. But in your own heart lies the dance.

Rough Lumber Ministry: July 2011
http://roughlumberministry.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 11, 2011. A friend of mine asked me to put a song together with clips from Passion of the Christ for a sermon he would give. It was a song by Pillar, a very hard-edged, blood-curdling kind of sound, and not at all the kind of music I'd normally lend my ear to. I could already hear my dad saying, "Son, that is not music, that's just noise.". He is worth it. Watch this video, and ask yourself if you'd rather listen to a lullaby. Music: Pillar. Whatever it Takes. Video: Passion of the Christ.

Bibles for Haiti: Nativity
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2014/12/nativity.html
Monday, December 15, 2014. So we did. I pushed out that lump of clay and made a Manger, and then with some broken pieces of dried clay from last year, Abby and I began to carve out our scene. There is Mary kneeling, baby Jesus bundled, Joseph standing, the sheep curled up asleep, the little drummer boy and even an Angel keeping watch. But there's one thing it certainly is. it's pretty. It adorns our table as the centerpiece. Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?

Bibles for Haiti: Tranpe
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2014/11/tranpe.html
Saturday, November 15, 2014. Tranpe. To soak. The Haitians have this word for soaking, whether it be laundry that is soaking in detergent, or food that is soaking with spices in a pot, but there seems to be almost no conveyance for the idea of soaking in the presence of God. I'm told I can't use that phrase, to soak in the presence of God. I don't want to just come before Him, I don't want to just sit at His feet, and I don't think it's even possible for me to stand in His presence. Daniel C. Elliott.

Bibles for Haiti: Bulldozed
http://imakeadreaminhaiti.blogspot.com/2014/11/bulldozed.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2014. Nearly 5 years ago I was with a group of Americans in Haiti. It was my first time in the country, and we were looking for a back route to one of the villages on the mountain from the other side. A couple of guys inadvertently entered in t. We walked for miles, and it took literally the entire morning, afternoon, and early evening before we finally made it back to our village. I called it my Haitian Walkabout. It was only hours into the venture that it began to dawn on us that...
