Softly

Softly

Soft and subtle
Until it isn’t
Then it rears its
Ugly head
To bite you
Swallow you
Whole
Wishing to make you
Only dead

satan’s darkness
Works like that
Starting with only angry
Complaints
Working undercover
Until it completely removes
All restraints
To fully destroy you

So they did with Christ
At first,
Only anger’s hatred
Until the evil within man
Fully exploded
Trying to destroy
Someone most sacred
God Himself!

At His last supper
On this green planet
He urged his true followers
Of many things
To love each other,
Honor His blood and body
With powerful words
With Holy truths
His words did ring

Until at last
Men with clubs
Came to gather Him
To his accusers
In only heartbeats
They would soon be His
Physical abusers
Of all these occurrences
Christ was already knowledgeable
Knowing His Father’s will was
Eternally indomitable
Walked into their death trap
And did it always and only
To save all of us, me
And of course,
You!!

Holy Week
A week like no other
Man will ever see
Heaven’s Holy Light
Chose to walk,
Talk with us
Die for us
Give us
The chance to
Do the choosing
Between

Choosing between what
You say?
Between good and evil
Heaven and hell
Death and life
God's peace or
Man's evil strife
Satan's narcissistic destruction
Or
God's sacrificial love

Behind whose back
You choose to follow
In whose steps
You wish to walk
Remember,
One way rings false,
Only hollow
The other leads
To a bliss filled eternity
Full of nothing but God's peace
To be eternally protected by
HIS LOVE'S DIVINE SECURITY!!

Holy Week #2 – His Triumph!!

His Triumph!

Triumphal entry
Fit for,
Worthy of only a King
Words of
HOSANNA!
Forever thru
All the ages
Will they, must they ring

Palms before your feet
Were laid in praise
From among the crowd,
Children's voices were raised
And if they had not
Well,
Then even the rocks
Could not have been stopped
From singing Your Glory!

So thank You, Lord Jesus
For stepping into
Our violent, cruel history
With each step
Each word
Each drop of blood
You declared your victory
And thankfully, blissfully
The world will never
Be the same again!!!

Holy Week!!


This Holy Week!!!!

This Holy Week
Allow all on this world
To Seek
Only Your Face
As each step You took
Upon this dust
Was meant to completely
Erase
Every single, last trace
For each and every soul
Of any or all
Of their deepest disgrace

As palms were laid at Your feet
You came riding always and only
To seek
Our completed well-being
Which as You hung from the
Nails
Was all before Your face
You chose to be seeing
As the skies darkened
The earth shook
Rocks split
As actually You could have
Within your temporary flesh’s life
Never ever did You just simply the saving
Choose To Quit!!

The Tear(ai artwork)

The Tear


Don't cry, Lord Jesus
Why that tear?
Does a sorrow to you
Draw too near?
I lay my cheek upon your hand
As flowers around my head
Do blend
Let me love you
Oh my God, my dear

You lift the crystal fluid
Off your cheek
Wait a moment
Before you speak
It is not for sorrow
That my eyes do weep
But for pure joy, beloved child
That in eternity I now may you forever keep!

John 15:11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

Also, Hebrews 12:2

From


From

Come,
Lord Jesus Come
Heaven's Only Son
From this moment
My race, it has begun
Only within You
All love, peace, joy
Emanates from

So lift me up
May I never ever
Become too worldly,
Or too numb
To Your beauty
Please help me
Transcend this earth,
It's darkest scum

So take my meager crumbs
And
In your hands
May I once more become
Your treasure
Your richest, ripest
Of fruits, a plum
And may I loudly proclaim
Your truths, light
In step with, in cadence with
Living to the rhythm of
The rest of,
The best of
All your Holy drums!!
