Pentecostal Fire Disciples, huddled In an upper room Shaking in their boots Trying to dispel the gloom Of your death Feeling only fear’s failure was left Until, A Pentecostal fire Blazed across their heads By tongues of living fire Were they to be led To stop the shaking, quaking & rise up Boldly speak Those first words of hope To preach And loudly proclaim In many tongues The life, the power Of God’s only RISEN SON!
Prayer for this Sunday Morning I am going to rise up Quit living in the muck Satan attempts to drag me down into And I choose YOU Lord Jesus, I choose you And you ever-growing hope! Amen.
Haiku for May
(an early spring’s day)
Though shown just in Spring
Flowers by the bunch dazzle
Still hold much power
Warning, Warning! Warning, warning Read all about it Warning, warning Voices raise to shout it The great reckoning Is coming For us, Out the time is running Soon will we all Peoples be allowed God’s face & presence No longer will be disavowed All to be judged In His great presence Investigating each life’s essence In His Book it is assured No one left not adjured To be brought before His throne!!
Revelation 20:11-13 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done.
Summer Haiku
Your inner man dies
Filling with the living Christ
this is true self-love
Before Before all time and space There was a glorious face Full of only grace Love for all He surveyed Having always the last say Over everything But, His goodness, beauty So overwhelming So always flowing Over and upward welling He wished to share it With others So the Three got together Made planets spin Stars shine But decided they had rather Make some someones A planetary home was made The darkest of night Became a day Animals, all creatures Brought into His sight Then His allowed His man to stand upright He felt such joy In this glorious child He had truly let His imagination run wild Crowned us at last With one glorious smile! Shout for joy All the earth At the glory Of this first birth But never fear, He will remove For a second time all tears As once again, The battle against Darkness He will win Return us, Back home If we choose Remember God will Never ever lose!!
