Distracted

Distracted
I turn my head 
from side to side
Distracted
I sigh
There must be a better
Reason
Than this
For which I exist
Perhaps I should
Just desist
From all these
Distractions

To buy, buy
Consume, consume
I think I just want 
To leave this room
Too many distractions
All these man-made
Contraptions

Most only man-made junk
They buzz, they whirl,
They even clunk
I think I am at last sunk
From the pile, my stash
Boy, on it,
I've lost a pile of cash

Until a still, small voice
Whispers into my inner ear
I'm just right here
Do not fear
For your life
I can give a better purpose
From this chaotic 
3 ring circus

I created you to share
In me
My great beauty
My love
From heaven's gates
Is falling
A higher calling 
Meant for everyone

In my great name
Must you follow
Let go of those deceptions
Distractions so hollow
Let me be your only God
As upon this earth
Will you so briefly trod
Until I call you back to myself

So listen to that quiet voice
It comes from only me
Still trying to get you to see
You were created to be
Forever with me
The one true lover 
Of your soul
For that was my truest goal
To share myself with you
In my Eternity's Paradise!!

Twinkle

Twinkle!

Twinkle, twinkle
Crash, roar
Disparity
Disparity
I will never even the score
If I died once or thrice
Can't equal the precious price
Heaven paid
To get to the day
Where each man,
Woman,
Child
All can say
By Christ's blood
Have I been saved!!

I haven’t had much of a chance to blog for the past month. My husband and I have moved from a two story townhouse to a one level condo in our town. He’s had cancer, strokes and bad knees and couldn’t get up the stairs any longer. So glad and grateful to God He finally got us moved. Praise God!!

I Was Made!

Made

I was made
I was made by You
For You
I was made

I was made
Through You
Empowered by You
I was made

I was made
Not by accident
Not by mistake
I was made

I was made
Not an accident of chemistry
Or molecules out of control
I was made

By design
By Your purpose
By Your glory
By Your love
& in Your image
Was I made

The Answer

The Answer


To be with You
Holy God
Inseparable
Completely joined
You living in me
Or
Perfectly together,
My daily existence
Walking inside of You!

But how can that happen
How can that truly be?
Perhaps only in eternity
The answer to that question
will I at last be able to see!

Praise!!!

Praise


Praise even harder
As satan squeezes tighter
For you know 
Jesus is a fighter
Never giving up

satan has no knockout punch
Delivering in just one tremendous blow
Jesus raised a bloodied fist
From that wooden cross
Only one wham
then a bam
Christ just sighed 
then He died
Finally relaxed
Had finished His task
& just went out to lunch!!!

We Say

We Say

I say this 
You say that
Words flying thru the air
Tossed into that great hat
Of a world's opinions

Changing almost by the hour
Quickly coming in increasing showers
From the human ever restless heart
At an ancient beginning, our start
No end in sight to this 
Our dark, yet most refin-ed art

In opposition to more elevated words
Trying strongly man's destiny to turn
Spun from heaven's celestial higher calling
Still we stumble, tumble over our mispronuciations to continue falling
Over our own words

We ruin ourselves our lives
With crude, more crass words every day
When will we ever learn the
Value in those words 
our only God has such to say?

God's words can lift us higher
Ignite in us once more a Spirit's fire
Able to lift out of a dark murk & mire
Of our own creating

We should listen
To what God has to say
With His shining verbal pearls
Enhancing all our days
Speaking crystal shards of truth
To deny satan's stabbing wounds
As in eternity an ancient enemy's darkness
God forever will at last exclude!!!
