How?

How?

How do You see
Someone as small as
Me 
But somehow You do
& as I gaze up at You
You smile down

I am your creation,
Your child
Launched into paradise
But by our own hands
It became quite wild

Restless, lawless
Open rebellion
Our great fall
You tell upon
The pages of 
Your Book

Wandering lost
In pain
Why do we repeat
Over & over again
All that old evil
All that old same

So inside I must look
For guidance
For a better hinderance
To my lost behavior
& so, You gave me
Your Son, my Savior
Praise You Lord God!

Return to me
I will return to you
So, each day I try to follow
That my re-birth
May be renewed!!

Hunger

Hunger

That hunger
Pushing, driving
Telling me
Something is wrong
So strong,

No matter how much
Of the world I ingest
Still somehow lingers
Distrust
Still I need,
Long for
At times I know now what

So, I continue
To eat from the world
Each of every day’s
Beginning & end
Searching, taking in

Until I say no more
I will buy no longer
From your unlimited store
Of meaningless things

Then I stand, still
And realize
That you lie
This world will
Never completely
Satisfy

Reach up
Search for God’s face
His unending grace
Only that love will
Fill up, supply
Those inner recesses
Now threatening to die
From a world’s wearying
Provision
Oh, Lord, 
Help me to make 
A better decision!

Quietly Soft but Deadly

Quietly Soft but Deadly

It may start,
(for most it does)
Quietly & softly
In the heart
Deception 
Seeking reception
Into your innermost recesses
This will be your greatest test

Large numbers 
Consciences so burned
They will not recognize
So it will quickly seize
Its chance to take hold

satan will try to sneak in
a foothold he lusts to win
Evil hoping to replace
The least little taste
Of Christ’s lovely perfection

The darkness says
Christ does not exist
But the strongest weapon yet
In its arsenal
To persuade you satan
Does not exist

This you must do
Go to any lengths
Use all your own
& lean on the always there
Of Christ’s strength!!

He Bends

He Bends

God knows every hair
On every head
Counts each green leaf
On every budding tree
Every sandy kernel on every beach
He bends to fill within His 
Almighty hands

Feels every heart’s beat
& when each one does cease
And we at last rest in eternity’s sleep
Treasuring each soul in
The palm of His hand
Wanting each to reach up
And return to His promised land

So tell me not
God is no longer Almighty
This is a lie formed within
Only a demon’s heart
In Jesus’ name I command
Such thoughts to depart
For in my own spirit He has 
Come to shine
Too totally & completely brightly!

Transported – To Wait

Transported –To Wait

Trembling,
In this place I wait
Promised, hoping,
Told of a better fate
Than any of the years,
Or days, 
Down here
Still I am determined
To wait

This level 
Is heavy
Weighed down
By much
Painful at times
To the touch
It has been promised
Though if I continue 
To look up
Much better awaits

A lighter level
Of existence
But for all my life here
I will have to stay near
In order to receive 
A Spirit’s assistance
Which, of course,
Depends solely upon
My acceptance

Light everywhere 
Will we receive
Those who refuse to 
Give up
Remaining in belief
Purity, glory,
Living righteousness abounds
As we partake in the sounds
Of the angels’ dancing praise!

Unbreachable Walls

Unbreachable Walls

Owner, Owner
Not For Sale
My mighty walls
No one can scale
If power is what 
You wish to claim
No one can breach
The POWER found
In My ALMIGHTY NAME!

So turn run,
If my power & love
Are what you wish to spurn
Because,
Soon to return is
My One & Only
Eternity’s SON

Innocent,
He bled for you
My perfect sacrificial Lamb
But soon overhead
Skies will be rent
By His Perfected Hand

Your real power
Lies in letting go
Of yourself
Return home to me
Before it is too late
And alone you are left standing
In the darkness outside
My Eternal Celestial Gates!
