amy's poetry

"I'll lead you to buried treasures, secret caches of valuables... Confirmations that it is, in fact, I, God, the God of Israel, who calls you by your name." Isaiah 45:3 (The Message)

 

OUTSIDE

Each day passes like
Every one before
And I'm still standing
Outside this door.

Not a wall too high -
Not a fortress strong.
Not a moat to swim -
Not a step too long.

Just a simple doorway
With an open door.
Just  a level threshhold
On an even floor.

Tomorrow will come
Like yesterday before.
What keeps me standing
Right outside this door?

whispered treasures
a collection of poems by amy harvison



Father God wants to reveal treasures to us so that we will know that it is Him that calls us by name. This collection of poetry is the creative result of my listening for God to call my name. As I have poured out my heart and sought Him, he has led me to the buried treasures in the depths of His heart. The poems in this book reflect some of our conversations, adventures, classroom time, connections and love. You can use this book as a way to meditate on His words and hear the whispers He longs to share with you as you read the poetry and associated scriptures. To purchase your own copy for $15.00, email me at amy@amyharvison.com or mail payment to me at P.O. Box 17146, Fort Worth, Texas 76102.

"There are very few people who have inspired me and spoken to me like Amy. I have consulted with her often to pray, to provide insight, and to speak into a particular situation I was facing. I recommend you find a big, overstuffed chair, a cup of coffee and a good hour to just sit and soak in the words that flow off the page." (Taken from Forward to Whispered Treasures)

Randy Frazee

"With velvety courage, Amy takes us deep into her heart in order to showcase her Heavenly Father's handiwork in her life.  But lest this work of poetry be nothing more than self-examination, she leads us with her carefully crafted prose and personal transparency to the heart of God and reveals the vast treasures stored in waiting for those who love Him.  You will enjoy and savor each turn of the phrase from this gifted writer, but even more, you will relish the renewal of your walk with God."

Preston Gillham, Lifetime Guarantee

"Whispered Treasures is a great way to describe the connection with heaven that I've seen in Amy Harvison.  Since the Lord confides in those who fear Him, I suppose Amy has been in awe of Him for quite some time.  Secrets of the Kingdom are packed into these pages.  Each poem takes you into another treasure of hidden riches that has been mined through real life experience.  It is obvious that Amy is pressing in and drawing intimately near her Maker."

Kevin Walker,  Worship Pastor, Tri-Lakes Chapel 

"Amy Harvison writes in response to God's shaping of her soul.  Few poets possess the ability to peel back the layers to let us experience His touch; fewer still dare risk it!  Rooted deeply in the Scriptures, these words wind their way heavenward - lifting us and wrapping their tendrils around our hearts.  Intricately formed blossoms of truth appear where we least expect.  The fragrance of unfolding buds found on every page invites us to breathe deeply.  Simply reading won't do; these lines must be cherished and savored."

Dr. Jerry Carlisle, Senior Pastor
First Baptist Church, Plano, Texas
