Written within the world’s Greatest Book Are words of Life & Glory Everyone should take a Good hard, long look Read of the complete & Honest truth of Man’s story Words that explain our Existence
But unfortunately There is a dark side to All of this light Because try as hard as We can with all of our might Never can we save ourselves
We are not capable of Pulling ourselves out Of our pits of depravity We cannot be our own god If that is the role you seek Never will you fulfill that job
It took God’s own act of kindness To pull us out of all the darkness To change the outcome of our eternal story Away from His own golden throne of glory Christ died alone in agony & blood
So today while you can take One more breath & your heart still beats Do not let your ancient enemy Steal, defeat or cheat You out of What could be Your one last chance
While for you it is still Today Begin a fresh new start This Moment give Him your whole heart None of us knows how many more Of these heart beats are left Death awaits at every step & after that, THERE ARE NO MORE SECOND CHANCES THERE WILL BE NO BACKWARD GLANCES
Hebrews 9:27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgement
Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books.
More than
Father, mother
Sister, brother
Friend, neighbor
Family, community
All rolled into one
This, our God's
Holy Son
We were issued
From You
Made by You
For You, through You
If not for You
I, we would not exist
Before you placed
Each one in a womb
Did You say good-bye
With a small, tiny kiss?
I think You did, Lord Jesus
I think You did
So whenever you feel alone
Unloved, rejected
Think on this
You too can share
Christ's life, His love
Be also resurrected
So remember
That one small kiss
Because waiting
Behind it,
Ah
Sheer bliss
As we join Him,
our Savior from Galilee
Becoming a part of
His eternity's family
To walk forever
To be gathered
Upon His Heaven's
Streets of Purest Gold!
Uncomfortable
This doesn't really feel like home
I rant, I rave
I moan,
Even give a little
Groan
It stirs in my blood
A longing, this need
Sometimes just a trickle
Or quite often
A loud, roaring flood
A need arises
Raises its head,
A flower's tender bud,
Then opens
Inside my deeper place
I start to recognize
That for which I hurt,
I sigh
I believe it is this,
This place doesn't fit
This world, this place
Well, it's just wrong
My heart, it misses
Dear Lord, Your face
My fingers itch, they burn
Longing to be allowed
Once again to return
Close enough to trace
Your beauty, Your love's grace
But for now I must live here
This becomes ever more clear
Until I leave this fragile shell
However, for today,
You desire others of You
I must tell
This world's pain,
Which we all daily see
Was never meant to be
Christ's Reconciliation
My Faith's Compensation
A Return to Your perfection
In silence I stand & wait
As one of your heaven's gates
Swings slightly open
Daring to call my name!
Help
You Draw near
Power of a trillion sun's
Held in one hand
Sacrifice &
Love of calvary
Within Your heart
I am not worthy
Of anything
About You
Holy Lord
Your great beauty
Incomprehensible power
Your world-shaking
Passion for us
You, the ultimate
King of all kings
Of uncountable stars,
Whole Galaxies
Wants me!!
What can I give you?
Help me then
To love You
Serve You
Sacrifice for You
Your Calvary's Sacrifice
To reciprocate
Help me to dedicate
This, my only small life,
To You!
Spirit
You dance
Enmeshed in their arms
Do you hold them together
In eternity's airs?
Ethereal
Non-corporal
Yet so powerful
Working within the heart
To bring life a new start
That re-birth
So,
Holy Spirit
Come dance with me
Fill me
Though unseen
Allow again
Another face
among the throngs
Your will to see
And as you bring
To lay at my feet
Heaven's great infinities!!
A Part Of
Like I was created to be
A part of your great group
Your Holy Trinity!
A smaller part
As I bend down
Worship at your knees
A gift to be like You
Should that not
My worldly values askew?
A world out of balance
So out of its mind
Tumbling along on a very thin line
Not even your angels
Did You die for
Over us Your Spirit’s healing
Did You wish to pour
To enable, re-birth
Through all the light
& darkness of this universe,
Along its massive girth
No one thing and no one else
Did You create to reflect
The goodness of Yourself
Only us!
Thank you, Dear Lord
In You only
May I completely trust!
