Praising the Provider

About the Book

Praising the Provider emphasizes the numerous ways in which God has provided and continues to provide for us. Using rhythms, images, and occasional rhymes, the author reflects on verses in the Old and New Testament with words of praise that sometimes become prayers or songs.

Several of the poems give thanks to God and acknowledge his power and holiness. Some express our need for guidance and strength. Others focus on God’s goodness, mercy, and forgiveness. Ultimately, these seventy devotional poems are reflections on God’s extraordinary love.
