The Beach Ball In My Heart
–When life shoves me under
And tries to hold me down,
The beach ball in my heart
Comes bounding back,
Thrusting me to the surface
Like a jack-in-the-box
And keeping me afloat,
Displacing sadness with
Joy, peace, and hope.
This buoyancy that sets me free,
Is the reality of Christ in me!

About Steve Simms
I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
