The Choosing Ground


The Choosing Ground

A line has been drawn
On this earth in the sand
By an Almighty, Holy Hand
Choose on which side
You wish to stand
You must
In this,
You have no choice

For of your life
This is the reality
And God Jesus
Holds all the keys
After all,
He does give free will
He allows you to instill
Or choose
With which side
Yourself you wish to fill

On one side,
A broken world's chaos
So lost
Or on the other
A beauty so RICH
Fit only for a king
Who for your sake
Was willing to
Pay the heavy cost

So, spend your time
In a way most wise
One side renders for you
Only a dark demise
Or step over
TO THE OTHER SIDE
Offering Infinity's Bright Lights
To live, explore forever among
God's Heavenly Heights!!

The Ticket

The Ticket

Jesus Christ
Into heaven
Is
OUR TICKET
With
HIS BLOOD
He came to
STOP IT
that satan's deceit!

So won't you
GET OUT
Even if it
Takes a
SMALL SHOUT
In joy
To grab people's attention
So they can
Win it
THAT HOLY TICKET
Into God's Eternal Paradise!!

Hand to Hand

Hand to Hand

Imagine. . .
This large open plain
A massive battlefield
Where today in another war
Many demons yet might I
Still be forced to kill

Thick helmet on my head
Chain metal on my chest
Finally I step forward
Serving my Master’s undying quest
To bring home the lost

A great dark enemy’s army
Gathers in this earthly field
Hoping to devour
And my most precious faith
Longing to at last kill

But we have a Living, Risen KING!
Upon our dusty clay
Did He with human feet
Sleep, cry and trod
This our Holy, Beautiful,
ALMIGHTY GOD!

So take heart
The battle is not over
Onward it still rages
As written within
A Holy Book’s eternal pages
And for us the best of news?
God wins, Christ wins
His Spirit all evil will subdue
And if you so choose
Saving us, I, we and you!!

Nothing

Nothing

Nothing,
Such a concise word
In my heart and mind
within me does it stir
a feeling of emptiness,
Of beauty, warmth, wholeness
Completely do I now feel disinclined

Until I look upward
Toward Your heaven
And I receive this new impression
Glancing ever more boldly
Sensing that to me you are trying
To teach a new lesson

Then
I hear from your own lips
That word
‘Nothing’
God, You begin to speak

Nothing
On my beautiful
Green planet
Will satisfy you completely
Within these words
Fully do I hope you will believe me

No amount of money,
Power, sex, fame or any other pleasure
Please, please do not make
Of any of these such a tremendous
Overwhelming Treasure
You were not designed
To be made whole, complete
With any of such as these

Only within me, Your loving Father God
Were you made to fill complete and filled
All those others are only cheaper, temporary thrills
So
Nothing
I repeat
Nothing
Except My Loving Presence
Will ever meet the needs and
Complete your spirit’s holy, core essence!

In A Crowd

In A Crowd

Must I shout out loud
In the middle of this
Moving, teeming crowd
If so,
Then here goes

The main message:
God Loves You
Repent
For the Kingdom of God
Today has He sent!!

He is so at hand
That even now He stands
At God’s right shoulder
Just waiting
Now is our time to be bolder
As His great time approaches!

It encroaches
Upon all of human history
For truly is it the world’s
Greatest story
For His Glory
To gather us all back home

But unfortunately,
There are the some
Probably very many
That will refuse to listen
So among those to be saved
There will be great attrition

But today is also our day
Still are many to be saved
So use your voice, believers
Do not be silent any more
For this is our job,
This is our chore
To bring more back home,
So they too may also be the achievers
In God’s Love-Filled Paradise!!

Proverbs 24:11 Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter

Maybe Your Last Change!

Maybe Your Last Chance

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.
