What Else?
What else is there?
Nothing rings true
Where upon this planet
For this
Lies the cure?
Everything
Rings of the temporary
Over it
Literally stumbles
I know this sounds contrary
A world’s song
Completely different
I know we all long
To believe it
But its useless voice
We must bury it
Wars will come and end
Governments rise & fall
Even death our bodies
Will be allowed to rend
So, listen to the voice
Of your God/Christ
Because there’s really
Nothing, no one else
As He comes back
And we watch
As all the old away
Does melt!
Half a Chance
Alone
In the cold
Trembling, shaken
A thick darkness enfolds
My heart
Only an unknown terror awaits
For each this is
Our fate
Until You came to fulfill
A plan known only by a few
Before any of creation
Designed by a Father, Spirit
And also You
To save and rebirth
All of your humanity
Living on this green earth
You came to save
Our only chance
Nay,
May I say
We had not half
A chance
Until you came to dance
Among the living dead
So thank you
Holy Christ
For offering yourself
In us you wished to see
Your face
So my tombstone could read
This one He saved
In vain He did not bleed!
Hope everyone has a happy Fourth of July and stay safe! Praise You Lord Jesus!
Gut Me
Gut me
Tear me
Shred me
Shatter me
Open me up
Clean me out
Leave nothing of the old
So my same old story
No longer is allowed
To be told
Purge my inner abscess
Of all the rotten pus
Even though its stench
I may most firmly clutch
Give me, Lord Jesus,
Your purity
Your holiness transform
me
All of this above
I seek with unabashed
sincerity

One Cross
That cross upon a hill
Reminds us in lonely words
Still
Of a dying sacrifice
Every day while here
He walked, talked, cried
Then spread out his arms
On a piece of hard tree
To die
For us to justify
Only that one cross,
Although there were
Many others,
Turned us into closer
Sisters, brothers
So, listen to the words
It still whispers
Wreathed in a blood so red
Allow its words within
To ring out,
Out loud to be said
Found spoken on that tree
Some of the most important words
Ever intended for
Everyone’s life
They will surely suffice
Of,
A loving Christ’s purest
& most noble sacrifice!
by Hazel Straub It is time to arise from depression and darkness because of the new life and light of God’s Spirit lives inside of believers in Jesus. The light and radiance of Yahweh casts out all darkness. It is your time to shine with the light of God, as it transforms. Although the darkness […]
In Love?
In love with Jesus
Is that what I’m
Supposed to be?
New idea at times
Something worth the try?
Perhaps of this should I see
Infatuated, Adoring
Up in my heart should
I be storing
For someone such as Him
These feelings will He win
From within me?
The answer to all these questions
Should be
A loud resounding yes
For to love someone else
You must let go of self
Which is assuredly for most
A very difficult test
But that is what we’re
Called to be
I think I’ll try it
More just to see
What results can possibly come
From making an attempt to
Follow God’s Only Living Son
So,
Forward, onward
I will go
At times not at all to know
Exactly how to walk
Or talk like Him
My goodness, patience
At times will wear incredibly thin
But hoping more & more
As on I go His ways to win
So myself I need to remind
More than just one time
With these simple words
‘Not I but Christ that liveth in me’
Hoping, praying someday
A new better version of myself
Will this world finally be able to see!!
