Dull Ache
Dull Ache A Dull Ache Somewhere In the middle Growing larger No longer little A need more insistent Almost a sharp Pain Then becomes a Joy This, the means You employ To draw me Closer Your Spirit Entices I come to a Sun, Beautiful Light, Perfection Holding only Life Your Purity Your Goodness You breathe Eternity Return to me I will return To you As my Desire Intensifies I wonder When it will Be met This ache This longing We all Within feel This unmet Need We constantly Try to fill With shallow Thrills, Cheap pleasures Life can feel Like walking Uphill With a heavy load Your beauty, God the only real goad To continue Earth As it is now Will never be Utopia, [perfection’s power] Only with Christ’s return Will that For which we Yearn Be Met! Revelation 7:9-10 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.” Revelation 7:17 For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water’, and ‘God will wipe away every tear from their eyes’.
Still Walking
Still Walking The world Is dead But up & Still walking Around Working, Playing They sound Alive But. . . Without Christ God, their Father Anyone like That Is dead Already In their heads, Hearts, Denying their God They just don’t know it. So many living Without Christ So spiritually, totally Dead So Sad But, with that said, should we not warn Them? To keep them from: The outer darkness, Weeping, wailing Gnashing of teeth Worms that never Die Fire that is never Quenched More than just Once These things Are described Prophets, Christ Himself, Not to be denied Said out of love For Us It is our Responsibility To Warn Not with a tongue So glib But with Loving Hearts & Words As Christ Himself Did Out of His Great Love For Us He warned As you would Warn any child Its hand to keep, Avoid, Not to seek That deadly fire & its Unspeakable Pain.
Matt. 13:49 -50 This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Mark 9:47-49 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell where,
the worms that eat them do not die
and the fire is not quenched
Everyone will be salted with fire.
Isaiah 66:24 And they will go out and look on the dead bodies of those who rebelled against me; the worms that eat them will not die, the fire that burns them will not be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”
The ANSWER
Answer Most stand calling Not realizing they do What is it they Desire? They need You, Lord, God The passion, fire Of your heart For them! That is the answer We all need. In blindness & Stumbling, fumbling Is this not what We all seek? Seeking joy, peace, Fulfillment, Love We wander, fight Shove For our share Of this earth When all true life Flows freely from above. INSIDE GOD’S HEART We were made to live From the very start This is the purpose, ANSWER For which we were Created In only this, Are all needs sated To live daily In contentment More Fulfilled Try as much as you Can To live inside His Will His Intellect, His purposes Your old man That self Must be killed To let Him have His way Over you His sway So you may say, Not I but Christ That liveth in me. But because we turn Away Harden our hearts, Without our true calling We endlessly wander Thru all of life Unsatisfied, discontent stumbling & falling
Movie Risen
A few weeks ago, I saw a movie, Risen, starring Joseph Fiennes as a Roman Tribune who helped to crucify Christ and then miraculously got to see Him after He has risen from the dead. I thought the movie was really good and stuck to the text of the Bible fairly accurately. I loved the scene where the Tribune gets to see the man he helped to kill sitting alive in a room among His disciples and followers. In that scene, Fiennes did a good job of portraying the shock and amazement of seeing the resurrected Lord. Also the scene where Christ heals a leper is good.
If you get a chance to watch this movie, I think you will enjoy it. I cannot begin to imagine what it must have been like to see a dead man raised to life and walking and talking among us and then get to watch Him ascend back into heaven to return to His Heavenly Father. Praise God!
Exposure
Exposure So I will lay myself Bare I do not care If they stare If a glimpse into My soul Will bring them Into your fold then God, Let it be If looking into My heart Will get them to Start Seeing you better If it be ever so clever Of You to begin then may You win them on their journey closer to your Son bright, blazing glory of your face joy unbounded found only in the grounding of each soul in your great power and self!
Startle Me
Startle Me Startle me, Wake me, On a shelf I’ve been Too long Now seems The perfect time For a newer song So . . . Wake me Shake me Do it again King Jesus As you did it then On those dusty streets Of old Jerusalem Flow thru us Live through us Your power shining, Exploding As to your world Your beauty You’re showing So, come Lord Jesus Come Legions of angels Behind you To tromp, Stomp On this Shallow dirt, This clay Quake the earth As you did before Awaken your church Let it arise At your bidding As this dark war Assuredly you will Be winning Let us not be afraid To get our hands dirty Comfort, convenience Never wins the day So do it, Again King Jesus Do it Again Awaken once more our spirits to call us your Steadfast Soldiers & Friends!
Praise God!
Psalm 150 Praise the Lord Praise God in His sanctuary praise Him in His mighty heavens Praise Him for His acts of power praise Him for His surpassing greatness praise Him with the sounding of the trumpet praise Him with the harp and lyre praise Him with timbrel and dancing praise Him with the strings and pipe praise Him with the clash of cymbals praise Him with resounding cymbals Let everything that has breath praise the Lord Praise the Lord
I just thought this was good way to start off the day after Christmas Day. Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas, that everyone stayed safe. May God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit bless and guide your day today.
