Scenes

Scenes

What does it really mean
All of these different scenes
From so many different peoples
Carrying the weight of our faults
Why does not the world just topple
At times they seem so unstoppable
These, our chaotic insanities

For each of us the final rest
Comes forth only through our death
So I sigh
Look upward
Try to turn from all the lies

Please do not let yourself be deceived
Each & every soul will receive
What for themselves they chose,
In their life’s walk & daily plans
Whether to accept or reject
               CHRIST,
Our God’s Living Son of Man!

Death

Death

A pulling out of the body
Will come for everyone
A removal of the familiar
It is a valley we must all pass through

So prepare yourself
While you still have a chance
While it is your Today
While you’re still this side of the grave
Do not listen to satan’s song & dance
Of denial

About  
Who owns this world & us
In a darkened voice do not place your trust
Only God promises renewal of your life
A final calm, relief from all pain & strife

Why do we ignore this deep but
Simple truth
So, 
In this world amidst your daily struggles, toil
Remember
Death is something no one can avoid

The Next Time

The Next Time

People very often say
As sickness or death
Looms closer in our path
Intrudes into our life’s way
“It’s better than the
      alternative.”

      Meaning I suppose
As on their way they persist & go
in whatever horrific condition 
             to be alive
Is better than life’s alternative,
                 Death
I shake my head, my tongue I bite
       Do they not know?

      Our God in the flesh,
Spiked to man’s cruel piece of wood
Dying in His own blood so red
This one we call Savior, Christ
Turned to another & said,
Today with me will you be 
        in My Paradise!

Why do we not trust in His words
What awaits for all who believe
 & stay loyal to this beautiful Christ
       Is so glorious a Paradise 
Free of all pain or strife
New body, new way to exist
Totally, completely a better New Life!

            A man,
Once a fisherman by trade
Until that most compelling day
He heard Jesus of Nazareth say,
       “Come, follow me”
In a letter this apostle wrote,
Live as foreigners & exiles
On this, a world so fallen 

So the next time I hear
Someone say those words
I will have to be honest, I fear,
And be compelled to say
No, I live & wait for a better way
To Share in His Most Perfect 
& Newest of All My Days!

1 Peter 1:17  Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear.

1 Peter 2:11  Dear Friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul.

Haiku for A Very Cold Winter’s Day

Haiku For A Very Cold Winter’s Day

Eternity’s child 
       Receives the gift of God’s smile
Resting in Christ’s arms

If I Were You

If I Were You

When you mess with me
You mess with Him
Because I belong to Him
I am
His precious child
His beloved
Bride
Pure & holy
At least in His eyes
So, 
If I were you
I would leave me alone!

He will leave no stone
Unturned
To save me, redeem me
Protect me
Even though you think 
Destroyed I may be
But
Believe me
I am not!

At this place, this spot
Where you think I am gone
In heaven’s purest portals
I rejoice again, again & again
With the loudest of songs
With His powerful angels I dance
In pure joy
For just to take one quickest glance
At God’s face

So again, if I were you
I would leave me alone!

Get Out of The Way

Get Out of The Way

Get out of the way
A change is coming to stay
Growing closer each & every day
This world, HIS earth 
God is going to shake!!

Everything around us
Everything that is now seen
Done away with 
Will it be
Before our eyes 
Will it flee
Death, evil, satan’s darkness

Prepare your hearts
Your very soul
To transform, change us
Save Us
Has always been 
Christ’s deepest most heartfelt goal

But heed the ancient Book’s warning
All who refuse His Loving Voice
For you,
At His spectacular second coming,
Will be no more second choice
Put away, endlessly forever roaming
In infinity’s Pain-filled Outer Darkness

So prepare yourselves
Get ready
Remain in your faith
Ever-Steady
Watch as He comes
This One & Only Son
Once again to change,
Re-create His Earth!!
