gods of earth

gods of earth

Caught up in the here & now
To earthly gods we tend to lean & bow
Comfort, convenience, luxury,
Pleasure
All of these we lust after
Treasure

Let’s turn away
No longer to be fools
Controlled by useless satan’s tools
& their ever growing deceit

So, turn away
From those fragile gods of glass
As easily 
Will God’s truth shatter
The shining illusions
Coming close
Will His breath scatter
Destroy
Robbing them of their fraudulent
Joys!

What is an Imagination For?

What’s an Imagination For?

Black trees with golden leaves
How can I see such as these?

But yet, 
There it is
& to me You do bequeath
The impossible to see

My imagination rises
Without mere eyes
Things to be seen
At each twist & turn
It surprises

Me more and more
As my spirit soars
Above this earth
Takes wings to adore
Your Holy Face

Dearest Lord,
Is that not what an imagination
Is mostly for?

The Already Am

The Already Am

No more struggling
To Be
I already Am
Within your loving arms
To live was always your 
Infinity’s Plan

So come,
Lord Jesus,
Come
Take control
Live in my spirit’s soul
May You over 
My rebellious heart
Win an absolute hold!

Throw away
My darkness
So may more clearly shine
Your LIGHTNESS
As I am allowed to rejoice
Even from this great distance
At the Beauty found
Within YOUR VOICE!

Giving

Giving

In the giving
You do the receiving
Therein likes the way of being
Like Christ

Who gave His Only Life
For us
Asking only in His Words
For us to trust

Let go of all the struggling
Of the sometimes pain & strife
Of always the will to get
Then on this journey should we let
Ourselves become that living sacrifice!

Came From

Came From

I came from 
& to you will return
Dear God
For your warmth-filled embrace
I deeply yearn

Your hallowed halls
I long to peruse
At the edge of your feet
Those power-filled, golden shoes
I tremble

Yet there, 
I find my most peaceful rest
& only at your behest
Am I allowed to rise
With expectant eyes
To see for myself
At last,
Your beauty’s-filled smiling sighs!

A Worldwide Disease

A Worldwide Disease

A disease is widespread
Walks around 
Sleeps in everyone’s bed
Invades each home, heart
& every head

Does not come from without
Originates from the within of us
Does not travel on any windy gusts
Or any stormy breeze

It comes from our refusal to
Bend the knee
To a wonderful, sovereign God
To worship only ourselves, 
The Me

Me can destroy other lives
That I of I
Inside each human heart
It struggles & resides

To have its say
Its own complete way
Over everything
Its indulgent siren’s song
It loudly sings

Causes wars, murders, theft
Of all true affection, kindness
It is most assuredly bereft
By it, love is truly an orphan left

We could have a brighter world
Where only purest, perfection’s love 
Could dwell
& on wings, joy’s songs would certainly swell
If we could kill off that worldwide disease
THE SELF!
