A world screaming In my ears Loudly, Systematically A world In love with Itself
Evil, crude Carousing Capable of Many fierce desires Arousing
Until That light Comes pulsating Gently pushing into your life At first maybe small Then larger Of tension Most rife
At odds with A world's narcissistic Evil Christ steps Sometimes roars Against Those strange dark Messages Around your heart Voraciously they soar
So, Tune out the Broken world Tune in Christ His brighter More benevolent light Follow His Gentle more Holy path And fall back into His wonderful, less selfish Loving Eternal Grasp!!
Idols, Idols Everywhere I look, I stare Turning my head I can see Enticing, me To Believe In their goodness What a mess!
You have yours I have mine They’re hard to let go Hard to unwind Most of the flesh To understand Not such a great test Power, Money Material Possessions Sex At time, they can lead To extremes of regret
In love with ourselves We run, we fume, we struggle At times, in singles Or often in doubles We collect, we hoard Then grasp We should feel insecure Nothing down here really Lasts
Reach for the eternal, A Holy Immortal God Please, oh please In Him learn to trust He desires to love us! His blessings They can be known So, don’t stand out in the Dark, all alone Reach for wisdom And take yourself off The idol’s throne!!
Do you realize that like In the children’s story We all live in a Never land Which promises us forever!
Never will I leave you Never will I forsake you Says He These words for all eternity May we all believe God sits on His eternal throne Never trying to hide its Warm Golden glow
And here’s another never for you These words in your heart may they Ring oh so true No one ever, ever May I say again NEVER Is out of His HOLY, DIVINE PRESENSE
On a planet do we live Always at His throne’s foot Does it spin Promising eternity’s life For all who dare to truly love Him I pray all could be conscious daily Of His GLORY, POWER, AUTHORITY And His warm, loving oversight!!
Was able to ride my bike on the greenway today along our river. It was cold but the sun was out, and I took a few shots of the sun on the water. It was full of bright, white sparkles. Really, really pretty for a December day here in the south. I hope all of you can get out and enjoy your weather wherever you live. Have a God blessed day!!
Today In Jerusalem You may hear some clamor Sounds, voices In the air float rumors A third temple they say Will bring for our earth A much better day!!
But don't they know There already is one! It is you and me If in our God Christ Jesus You wholeheartedly Do believe!!
Christ does not Need dead, cold stones In which to survive It is within the human heart He comes best to live And to most assuredly still thrive!!
As Christian believers We are living stones Built up together As one For God's Spirit A newer Home Along with His Holy Son Of this newer temple His Living Cornerstone!!
Once for all Christ's blood purifies For a whole world To see So with faith Anyone, everyone May forever live At the foot of God's throne His deeply loved, Glorified, Perfected Living Stones!!!!
