Never Alone

Never Alone

As the world rolls on
And we struggle forward
Living & dying
Wondering
Will He really come?

Of course, He will
And does
We are Never Alone
Christ lives
& continues to give
Every breath
Every heartbeat

Brings new life
New sight
To darkened eyes
Reddened as we cry
But still living to
Hope 

So let Him enfold
Your heart
In His arms
The warmest of
Embraces
As you must face
A lost world
So in His arms
You may taste
Eternity’s Love!

Never will I leave you! Never will I forsake you! Hebrews 13:5

For Teachers of Today

Teachers of Today!

Teachers of today,
Do not water down
His message of fire
Do not humanize
Eternity’s Glory!

Do not give me only 
Human words
What a man’s spirit tells
You to say
While it is my TODAY
Give me the Living Truth

Before we forsook
Our unique purposes
Before we rejected,
Cast off His loving hand
Return me to God’s
Original plan!

Do not succumb to pressures
My itching ears to please
Do not merely tease
With only half-truths
Give me the full & total story
Of all Christ’s glory
Even if my heart hurts 
As His words I hear

Only then will it be 
Perfectly crystalline clear
Only then will I from
The darkness be saved
Allowed in joy to enter 
Into the fiery power 
of His glorious New Day!

Sentinels

Sentinels

I turn & look 
Overhead
Power floats
Moves in the air
Shall I believe
Trust
Do I dare?

Around, at my sides
Are you, have you 
Truly imbibed
His Glory, Power
You seem like
A fortress, tower
Of His perfection

You have been sent
His messenger
This I know
For it has been shown
In all you do
For you truly chose
To show obedience
In all your ways

So there you are
His angels,
His Messengers, 
To show once again
His overwhelming love
Protection, power
That He chooses to shower
Over all the earth!

PRAISE YOU LORD GOD, PRAISE YOU

He Will Honor Your Choice

He Will Honor Your Choice

In life we are all
Faced with choices
Good or bad
There are at all times
many voices
Whispering some
Others screaming
For your attention

With the great gift
Of free will
We are allowed to choose
But for a moment 
Be still
Think
About what you choose
What you accept or refuse

God holds out Himself
& eternal pleasures at
His right hand
But
Never ever will He force
Himself
On any man

He wants to be chosen
Desires your love
& love is a choice
So never will He force
Himself on you
So if Him & His love
Are what you refuse
He will honor that choice too

He desires your company
Forever
But He will let you go
If you turn your head
And tell him to return
never
He will honor that choice
Also

But He is the Lord & Master
Owner, Ruler of this world
And the heavens
So if it is what you choose
He will put you away 
From Himself
Give you eternity, infinity
Of His absence

He will let you have the 
Outer darkness
Of weeping, wailing
Gnashing of teeth
Never to be ceased
Worms that never die
Fires never quenched
And a total void of love!

URGENCY!

Urgency

If a child is about 
To place a hand
In the fire
Will you not slap
It away
Talk to it
At least ‘No’
attempt to say

With those who ignore God
Isn’t it about the same
Ignoring the only name
That saves
From an even
Greater fire?

Of eternity’s loss
An even greater cost
Will be extracted
Than one burnt hand
They will spend infinity
In a far worse land
Desolate, dark, wretched
Bleak, gloomy
Colorless beyond all words

No second chances will 
Be given after death
None will be left
So shouldn’t there be
A greater sense of
Urgency
Importance
Not just for ourselves

But for every human
On the face of this planet
Only this one chance at
Life is granted
We belong to God, Christ
By them we are owned
So let us never grow
Too Apathetic
So we will never have to moan
‘If only’

Our Job

Our Job

If we people who say
We believe Jesus Christ
is Lord, Savior & God
We truly, truly believe
He is truth, life & the way
Then isn’t it our daily job
To say so

Out loud
Not just in a church building
Where we feel safe
But out in a dangerous world
Where we could face
Ridicule, embarrassment 
Maybe even death

Or perhaps alone to be left
With no one, rejected, 
Unloved, a most severe test
Of our loyalty
But this is what He said
To do
If each soul down here is
To have a chance to be
Renewed

We are to be His hands, feet
Face & voice
His Messengers
This can be a most difficult
Choice
For anyone, a sacrifice to make
This suffering we must take
If we truly, truly love Him

For without a sacrifice, there is no love!
So do not tell Jesus you love Him if
You are unwilling to sacrifice to stay loyal to Him

If you deny me before men, I will deny you before the Father! Matthew 10:33
