Beauty Sublime

Here’s a short, simple slide show of some photos I took on my bike rides along our greenway system where I live. Hope you enjoy and Praise God!

Beauty Sublime

Beauty Sublime
O’ for me sheer bliss
No matter the season 
Or the time
Lovely forms and colors
Upon his creation
God left one more kiss

Multitudes, varieties
No two exactly the same
To help us enjoy
And our senses to please
All this beauty
Was for man’s gain

So wander the world
Drink in its wondrous sights
Leaving it whole
Let it lift you to
New heavenly heights!

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

Itching Ears!!

Itching Ears

Itching ears,
Itching ears
Fill them with flea powder
Itching ears
Itching ears
For they only deny His power

They do not wish 
To hear the truth
Always and only 
Are they in pursuit
Of 
The self

Themselves, myself
Always and only me
Tell me not the truth
Or I fear my ears will bleed

Gently soothe me
Caress my foolish soul
Lie to me, 
My pride and vanity cajole

For I fear you know
This Christianity a book
Speaks of
Would not fit me 
Hand in glove

It causes pain
Might even lead 
Me to an early grave
So,
Silence your truth
I want no more proof
Of 
Creation’s Almighty
Glorious King!

YOU are

YOU Are

You are the flame
Within the candle’s light
You are the fire
Within its heat
The wind inside each 
Taken breath
The song that causes
My small heart to beat

Without YOU, 
I would not,
Could not
Begin to exist
Your love alone helps me
Each of this dark world’s lusts
To resist

Praise you, 
Thank you
YAHWEH,
God,
Father,
For helping me along
Each of life’s most treacherous
Precarious turns & twists!!

Haiku-The Runner

Come, Lord Jesus, Come
   Be my purest holy one
With me live and run!!

Gut Me

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

Dissipation (melting away)

Dissipation
(melting away)

My shell will dissipate
Allowed no longer
To participate
At this level

The real of me 
At last, 
will be allowed to see
My Lord,
God, finally
Will I with you be

To be lifted up 
On wings of bliss
O’ my soul
Of this I care not to,
Dare not to miss

Living in your light
Clarity, love & might
To know fully 
As I am fully known
All will be exposed
At last, your truth shown
By You, God,
To be eternally owned 
All this, from before my eyes
Will no longer be withheld!!
