Theological Tanka Scott DeCaro

Have you ever felt that language describing God is just too wordy and hard to understand? Do you have trouble articulating how you are feeling to the Lord at times? Perhaps your spiritual life could use a short, simple poem from time to time in your walk with God? This collection of Tanka, an ancient Japanese form of poetry with a modern Christian understanding is certain to enhance your spiritual life. These poems on the subjects of salvation, struggles of faith, God's presence, creation, and discipleship can be used in prayers, in worship, and as mantras for meditation. May they enhance your daily walk with the Lord.
