Every Thing


Every Thing

You are there
You fill the skies
The very air
Every breath
Every step
I take

Every heartbeat
Rings, soars
With Your Name
Oh,
How I wish
Pray
For everyone
It could
Be the same!

You wish such joy
To give
To every soul's
Existence
Longing to fill
Expel
Drive out
Cease
Desist
Between us
Any more distance

So give God,
Christ
His Holy Spirit
Your Every Thing
And
He will do
The Very Same
For you!

One Small Fish

One Small Fish

Some days
I feel broken
Then I remember
Jesus our God
Broke one small fish
Of food
It was only a
Minute token
Tearing it
Into very, very
Many pieces

His purpose?
So that
He could meet
A greater need
That He
And the Father
Together could feed
Over five thousand
In only one day

So if you
Have to,
Allow yourself
To be broken
Even if many things
You stand to lose
That by Christ Jesus
You also may be used
To feed, to save
Hopefully,
Multitudes of others!!

Warrior God

Warrior God

Hounds on the heels
For days, years on end
Isn’t that how it sometimes
Most usually does it feel
For all of us?

Oh! I cry
Oh, my Warrior God!
Alone and in the dark
Now, incessantly
Do I sob

Demons to the left,
Evil’s pain to the right
Of You nowhere in my vision
Do I seem to catch sight
All around only satan’s emissaries
Alone, alone, always alone I cry
Increasingly my very existence
They overwhelmingly deride

Until I hear your trumpet
I raise my head somewhat
To Your loud commanding roar
I can hear without a doubt
And no longer can contain
My own reverberating shout

As You command, aside evil
Do you toss
For of your beauty’s power
Never will there be a loss
The air around me you purify
You clean
Breathing better all at once
Towards you do I try to lean

On this day, as I am allowed
To gather and to see
The unending sight of my Heaven’s King
Upon His throne
And
Surrounded by your Almighty Power
My soul in ecstasy has found its home!

Hammered


Hammered

At the hands
Of the smithy
Hammered
Over and over
Put back into
The burning,
Roaring flames
Removed
Only to be
Hammered
Again

God will do this
To us
You know
Maybe
Just to show
How much
He really loves you

Remember
He chose you
Not any other
For this
Particular fire
Knowing you so well
Only He could tell
What you needed
To make you rise up
Be inspired
On His shoulders
Lifted higher
And
Put back together
Newer, stronger, ready
To follow
His every step

Never Meant


Never Meant

Never
A powerful word
Never ever, ever
Even more powerful words
Never meant to be
More powerful words

But
Meant to be
Was I
To infinitely, eternally see
Your beautiful Face
My very soul to taste
Your Perfection
Me,
This miniscule creation
To dance in Your direction

Never meant to
Be without you
Not smart enough
For that
Within Your Spirit
Meant to be
My natural habitat
Where I was
So to speak,
To hang my hat

So please take
All of me, my mess
So I may finally
Progress,
Transform,
Become
What You wonderfully
Meant for me
At last and
Forever to be!

Pouf!!

Pouf!!

Pouf,
Swish,
Swoosh
Wave the magic wand
Make it disappear
Where it once stood
Now the air, the very space
Oh, so very, very clear

Cheap magic shows
With their magicians
Do this almost every day
But I am here to you
To declare today
Loudly, boldly to say
There is coming in
Earth’s future
The biggest, loudest
Most terrifying
“POUF”
Mankind will ever see

God in His wisdom
Knowing what we really need
Is going to destroy all
Of this old creation
Using His best and brightest
Innovation
Will POUF away
All we now temporarily see
Out of sight eternally
Will it stay
To show us His new
Universe, new earth
All the old things gone
A total new rebirth!

Will perhaps roll it up
Like an older scroll
Or maybe in a loud roar
With a great fiery heat
So in this planet do not
Put too much security
All that will be left is
God
And His powerful
Eternity’s Infinity
Where every soul
Will bend the knee
And your dear Father
Face to face at last
Will you be allowed to see!!!!
