Here you will find the Poetry and Prayers that I write, and access links to the traditional Gospel songs and Hymns of the Christian Faith of which I am a member.
So, if you are in need of a place to rest and be refreshed during your busy day, please come on in for a while. You will be blessed. 1 Corinthians 3:16 - Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? ALL MATERIAL IS FREELY AVAILABLE FOR RE-USE!
"I've paid a heavy price for My Faith but You know what? Jesus is now running My Show! You see, I made up My Mind For He said that He Is Divine, so I Decided to Trust Him, and Now My Worry is in Decline! What about y'all?'
"Knee! - I Pray" "Jerk! - I React!" "Knee-Jerk! I Pray AND React!" "Wow! I know whatcha mean! Been There! Done That! Misery was My Companion and I was ready for the Tin-foil Hat!"
Sitting out there upon "The Shelf" Is The Problem with Christian-By-Self:
#CallingOnJesus!
Depending on Self!
Reacting to The World!
Destroying Soul Health!
Trust Jesus! - Jesus is The Shepherd! Lean On The Spirit! - The Spirit is for Help in Prayer! Read The Holy Bible! - It's The Captain's Word! Depend on Him! - Our God Truly Provides Care!

Father, I know what I was without You
A sinner without You who anything would do
But, You met Me in The Way
You said: "Child, There you cannot stay!"
And I from that world walked away!
I do not brag but
I thank You, Lord, for casting that Bag Full of My Sin
Into Your Forgetfulness Sea -
You promised it shall not to Your Memory return and
You promised You will not me spurn
So, please, keep Teaching this Child, Lord
For I need Your Lessons for Gaining Eternal Life to daily learn.
Who is Shepherding the Shepherds of The Sheep? Who will Cull The False Sheep that Bleat? Who is Preparing The Reward for The Meek? Jesus Christ - The Savior that The Faithful Soul Seeks! Who is Marking The Way that Will Eternally Pay? Who is Bringing Home The Children who from Him had Strayed? Who is Faithful and Just to Forgive those who Obey? Jesus Christ - The Savior, The Lamb in whose Name to Almighty God we Pray! Who is Holding us, Helping us To Stand Faithful, Walking Holy toward The Great I AM? Who Humbled Himself that we may have a Home in The Glorious Land? Jesus Christ - The Savior, The King, The True Shepherd whose Sheep I, Thankfully, am And whose Returning is Close at Hand!
The Word of God is Sharper Than any Two-edged Sword Dividing The Soul and The Spirit Exposing The Marrow in The Bone! With such a Weapon at our Disposal What do we have to Fear? Preach The Word In and Out of Season For God's Trees Will Produce and Good Fruit bear! Satan is The Liar! His Arsenal includes Doubt, Disbelief and Fear And if you Give him even Scant Soul Entry He will set up his Lion's Den there! The Word of The Lord is Quick and Powerful! Don't Forget it, and don't from Truth Walk Away! Let The Master Measure you for a Righteous Garment As you Believe, Trust and Work while Awaiting The Kingdom's New Residents' Dressing-Up Day!
I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If God was "Mean" to Me Everybody would Hear about it! I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If My Pantry was Bare I would be Saying: "I Always Knew That God Does Not Care!" I Am Blessed! I don't Speak of it But If Illness was in my Door Everybody would be Hearing The "Why Me?!" Furor! Amazingly, He Who Blesses Me Does Not Need My Speech To Provide Me with My Blessings! He Provides Because His Holy Love Abides And He is My Guardian and My Guide And The Holy Angels are Round About, and at My Side, and The Holy Spirit in Me Resides! I Don't Need to Talk About My Blessings But I - From Now On - Will For He who Provides Comforts Me and Stills All My Anxiety About The Cup I Fill And Reminds Me Of His Rest and Peace And Points Me Lovingly To The Day When I Shall Have Sweet, Sweet, Sweet Relief!

C.P.D is the Not-New Disease That Mankind is Suffering from It Effects are Enormous And there is no Antidote Out on The Market Front! C is The Mange-Marker that Attacks most People! P is The Easiest from Others to Hide Away! But D is The One That Does The Most Damage For it causes Man to Run Walk-away from God And with Exciting Pretty Sin Play! Combined, the Effects to Mankind are Overwhelming! Singularly, the Destructive Force is as The Rushing Rhine Or better The Harvest Combine! In any combination, they are Right there with Pain caused to the Damaged Spine! Corruption of The Soul and The Spirit Perversion of Actions, Thoughts and Ideals Diversion of Worship from The Master Leads Men to let them Satan Steal! Corruption Perversion Diversion Perversion Diversion Corruption Diversion Corruption Perversion Perversion Corruption Diversion Corruption Diversion Perversion Diversion Perversion Corruption However you Line The Bowl Mankind will Lose his Soul For God will not Tolerate Smoking Coal When Mankind should be by Jesus Christ as Pure Gold! Mind, Body, Spirit were made To Bow before Our Lord All Things were Made by and for Him We must Worship Him - He is our Creator Redeemer, Savior, Jesus Christ, Our God and Lord!
Firstly, We Were All Heterosexual Then ... The Modern Culture Wars Started And Then ...
He was Homosexual Then She was Bi-sexual Then He was Bi-curious Then She was A-sexual Then He was Pan-sexual Then They were Sexually Fluid Then He turned out to be Inter-sexual And Then ... My Head started to spin for there are Multitudinous Designations from which to Declare One's Sexuality For Sexuality is Contextual And I think I shall take the position Fetal. "Father, did You make a Mistake?! Are You not The Living God? Do You not See All? Do You not Know All? Are You not Ever-Present? Should I become dissatisfied with whom You created Me to be?" "My Child! I AM The Lord! - I Change Not! I AM The Lord - there is none else! I AM The Lord - I AM Faithful! I AM Holy - Walk Holy! I AM The Lord that Heals you! Worship GOD!" Well, so that there is no mistaking who and what I was created to be I Declare - of My Free Will - that I Love The Lord God Almighty AND I Really Like My God who In His All-knowing All-seeing Wisdom Made Man AND Woman - The Heterosexual Pair With Nothing to Change Re-arrange Expand Contract Subtract Add or Multiply! When I find a Partner I Will Always Be Its Opposite! We Shall Not Become Familiar with Animals AND We Will Not Biblically-Know The Deceased! We Will Always Be One + One Living Breathing Jesus Christ-Professing Human Opposite! One of us Will Bear Children! One of us Will Cause Children to be Borne/Born! In Essence, We Shall Be AC/DC And The Current that Almighty God Bestowed Upon us Will Continue to Flow Through us And Children will Continue to Grow Out of us And Humanity will, as a snow ball Continue to Roll Forth From us In All Our Generations Until The Day Of The Lord When It Will Be Tempestuous Indeed For Those Who Corrupted The Image of God With Vain Imaginings As they Sought to Re-Create Man in Sin's Image And in Lusts' Luscious Likeness. God said: "Choose Whom You Will Serve!" I say: "Speak, Lord! Your Servant Is Listening!"
I had Me a Think about God's Love - again - and - again - I am Glad that God has The Job and I do not!
Mankind is unkind
Mankind destroys and then whines
Mankind is ungrateful
And treats God as they would a wild vine!
So, with that being said, let Me ask Us ... Why? Why what? Why does God Omnipotent, God The Omniscient, God The King Omnipresent, Creator of The Universe, i.e, Heaven and Earth, tolerate us? Why didn't God just destroy Sinful Man and Corrupt Earth - all with Finality - and Create a Brand New Earth from Scratch, and a Brand New Man from The New-Made Earth? When we Answer these Questions, we will then Understand why We Should Reverence God. Couldn't God have make a New Earth? With ease! Couldn't God have made a New Man? Certainly, and with Pleasure, I'm sure! So, why didn't He? LOVE. LOVE!?! LOVE. God gives us The Clue when He States in His Word ...
He Says He Can Never FORGET Us! Another Clue:
Let US make Man (He already knew who we were) in OUR Image (body appearance) AND Likeness (ready/able to accept immortality; ready to be a being of His Light). I don't know about you, but I do not want anyone that I do not love to be like (representative of) Me, and I definitely will not have them taking care of my possessions! Therefore, by basis of deduction, God MUST LOVE Mankind. Third Clue ...
Since God is LOVE, and He has Thoughts Concerning Us, it is Obvious that He LOVES US! Let us consider that BEFORE we were Made, God had The Plan of Redemption in Place!
Does this not suggest that God was making Defective Merchandise? Not by a long shot! This is clearly telling us that despite our Anticipated Willfulness, and in spite of The Anticipated Sacrifice of Personal Blood, The Godhead knew us in ... LOVE! If we look to Lucifer - another Personally Created and Crafted Individual - and his Jealousy-inspired Rebellion, and the subsequent War, and the resultant Expulsion from Heaven, we would see, again, the Answer. LOVE. I will venture to say that God said in His Heart: "Let My Love for My Creatures Lead them into My Light," and it is so. The Almighty God ALWAYS GIVES US TIME to choose to OR to choose not to be cared for, and guided, by Him. God's Creatures will either Love Him because of WHO HE IS to them OR Hate Him because of WHO HE REFUSES TO BECOME for them.
God's Love, or The Expansiveness of God's Love, is Unknowable for a Finite Creature. God's Love REQUIRES Choice on the part of the Creature Receiving that Love. God's Love contains The Patience Of The Eternal. God's Love contains God's Measurement in Eternal Time.
God's Love contains God's Blessed Hope
Which is Measured by God's Faithfulness
To Constantly Plead with Us Out Of His Love For Us
UNTIL
His Measure of Time Convinces Us to
See, Experience, Understand and Accept
His Love and His Way
OR
Because of Sinful, Willful Self, Selfishness and Greed
See, Experience, Deny and Summarily Reject
His Love and His Way as Contemptible.
In short, God's Love IS The True Transcript of God's Character which character is showered upon us UNTIL ... The Appointed Time ... which we cannot apprehend. There is an old expression:
TIME IS LONGER THAN TIME!
The God Of Love
who sheds
The Love of God Abroad
and
Who Made Time
but
Who Is Not Constrained By Time
gives
The Time-Bound
Time Not Measured by Man
but by
The Eternal God
To See and To Know and To Decide
To Love God As Lord.
God Made Mankind
Out Of
His Love
In
His Time
For
His Pleasure!
God's Love contains His Grace God's Love contains His Mercy God's Love contains His Justice God's Love contains His Hand of Provision God's Love contains His Peace God's Love contains His Pardon God's Love contains His Compassion God's Love contains His Caring, and God's Love contains His Pathway To Our Perfection. God's Love is Infinite God's Love is Free God's Love is Overflowing God's Love is Faithful God's Love is Truth God's Love is Light. God's Love Seeks after His Children. God's Love Seals His Children from Sin and Death. God's Love Sanctifies His Children unto Himself. God's Love Saves His Children from That Separating Line. God's Love Heals God's Love Helps God's Love Holds, and God's Love Hands Us Hope. God's Love Pleads God's Love Leads God's Love Feeds, and God's Love IS The Steed Which Will Get Us Home.
Dear Stewart pointed out In the IDE/IED acronym play that Jesus says: "I Did Enough! I Even Died!" Well, let me tell you of That Other Side Of The One who Lied Of The one who did Our God Deny:
Satan is The Copy Cat! When it comes to Creation He can not do that for His method is to pull things out of a "Big Black Hat!" Satan speaks to Being Creative But all he can do is to Abominate! He never can Bless but he will Dominate And his basic ingredient is to Always Humans Hate! Satan brags each day of his Expressed Prowess Over man and woman whom he will Oppress Of woman and man whom he doth possess Being ever the usual False Witness! Satan, as usual, must follow behind God But with The Spin He, The Lie, doth Deploy He gives The Plus plus The Minus And he achieves "Goal!" with a thrusting of Self-trust!
Satan motivates himself each day By making men believe that:
Sin ever Pays
That Man is god
That to Do Good is to Need Greed
That Feeling Flesh is Staying Fresh, and
Gotcha is Good Growing Seed!
And when Satan takes himself a Non-break He strokes his Ego Before he on another victim let's go! He looks in his mirror And repeats the vile mantra he wrote, and Proceeds valiantly Wicked Seeds to sow:
"It's All About Meeeee!
I Will With Ignoble Deeds Humans Ensnare!
I Will Ex-filtrate Souls Every Day!"
And he sings to himself his glory song:
"I ENSNAAARE with ignoble needs
I will daily The Humans' Greed feed
With Putrid Praise
With Petty Pleas
With Puffup Pastry
And Pesky Deed Fleas
Of Self and Sin
Of Song and Dance
Of Vodka and Gin
Of Smoke and Mirrors
Of Conquerable Skies and
Dark Domains enchained
Of Life unfettered
Without restraints
With me in charge
By lies about Him
I'll weave my Web of Deceit
And I will deny Them to Him!"
Dear Ones: Please remember these points:
(1)
Seeking Self
Sets Satan's Seal Securely
Upon
Sinner's Souls!
(2)
Saints Solemnly Seek After Their Soul's Salvation!
For Saving My Soul! Thank You, Lord I Don't Have To Set Dates For By Jesus' Faith I Will Have Right To Walk Through Your Holy City's Bright Gates! I Love You, Lord! Amen.
In The Straight and Narrow Holy Way. I love You, Lord I don't want to disappoint Bless Me, Father Anoint, anoint This Soul often listing As The World's thrusts annoy Lift Me up, raise Me up Unto Eternal Joy! Amen.
