Don’t Know (demons) I don’t know Why you would give me such experiences Surely you could have found Someone of more uniqueness An orphan from birth One of the least of the least Assuredly you could have Chosen someone less Beaten to their knees Demons are real Come only your safety to steal Roaming from another realm Come to destroy any peace The first was only a black blob I suppose from all the darkness Through the eons he had trod Speaking Jesus’ name Was the only way To end the purpose for which he came To bring me only pain The second attempted to Look like our God On a throne he sat Extended a hand On this one I slipped, Trusted He touched my lips Next morning, I was sick The third, well Looking like a child Fearful when it smiled Trying to beguile Teeth, pointed, razor sharp After one look Asked about my written book In appearance only stark Shade of black and grey Only with Jesus’s name Did it disappear No longer to terrify In my ear Perhaps the most fearful In appearance of all A grown man, strong and tall No color to brighten his blackened visage I said ‘In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, begone Arguing replied, ‘Doesn’t work like that’ Screaming I answered Oh yes it does, Repeated Jesus’ name As before all the others He left Running from the light Of our universe’s Master To hide from His glory, His power’s might Our Prince of Peace Lover of our souls! Eternity’s Most Beautiful & Wonderous Sight!
A Daughter, A Son We are his daughters, his sons If your Father were under attack Would you just turn tail And run? In my heart, I hope not When they deny His Name They abuse His Spirit Of Perfect Love, Joy, Peace Patience, Goodness, Kindness To name a few But it is up to all of us To me and you An evil, destructive satan Wants to destroy all of us And watching the world today He does it without much effort Or a fuss God’s disciples we are meant To be So our Father’s love & forgiveness Every eternal soul here may see It truly is a battle for our Hearts & minds So step up, Join the front lines Even pain-filled at times As it might be Because, Without us in the war The enemy has already won!

A Love Song: (A Part Of) It is like I was created to be Always a part of Your group Your Holy Trinity A smaller part As I bend down Worship on my knees It is Your gift to be like you Should this not My worldly values askew? A world so out of balance Literally out of its mind Rolling, tumbling on A very, very thin line Not even those lost rebellious angels Did you dare to die for Only over us Your Spirit’s healing You wished to pour To enable re-birth Through all the light & darkness of this universe’s Massive girth In truth, nothing and no one else Did you create to Reflect the goodness of Yourself but us Thank you, Dear Lord In You only may I completely live & trust!
