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!
Lord, we don't have an excuse for Committing Sin for You said You wrote Your Law in our hearts! Problem is that with every Unbeliever Faith in Your Word has no part! Picking and choosing which Laws to follow Are have been a favorite unacknowledged past time (That is Until today!) And now that Knowledge is exposed here I now really have something to hold in Godly Fear! I can no longer hide behind Lack of Knowing! I can no longer hide behind I Don't Know The Way! I can no longer Pretend Blind Indifference For I have Received Glasses - A brand new pair! Faith Comes by Hearing The Word of The Lord! The Word has Life for me For I believe it, you see - So there is Gain! There is True Benefit to me! Since I want to Lose Sin And I want to Claim Jesus Christ as King A Faithful Hearer is what I will be And this is what I shall sing: Sung to the Tune of There's Power In The Blood:
I sat and Thought for a Moment Great Cogitations in The Head If this scenario was not a Metaphor for The Life of Christian True Believers I don't know What Else could be said! God sends us out on Missions Within which is our Reason for Growth But Nothing will be Accomplished If we Behave like Common Sloths! Accept The Mission! Recognize - of Our Self - that It Definitely Can't be Done! Get out our Working Shoes! Start out - Walk Chip Run! Turn to The Father! Raise up a Heartfelt Prayer! Trust The Spirit's Leading! Get Going! Move On In With Prayer:
Father,
You've Sent Me on this Mission
This surely means that it Can Be Done
But ... I see Great Difficulty ...
I Love You, and I Trust You
You are My Guide and Stay
I'll be the Willing Body
Will You be My Faithful Guide?"
I'm Walking! I'm Praying! I'm Trusting! God is Surely Leading The Way And ... Before Long I Get The Message:
You're Done!
Task Accomplished!
Put Today's Ledger Away!
Father, You are My Master! Father, You are My King! Father, You are My Music! Give a Listen, Lord As I Sing:
The Way - it may be Rocky
The Road - it may be Long
The Spirit fills Me with such Music
That I Break out in Glad Song!
I Sing A Song of Thanks for Your Mercy
For Your Blessing Me on The Way
I Trust in Christ, My Savior
And I'm Walking in The Way He Says!
Thanks, Father, for Your Provision
Thanks, Father, for Answering My Prayers
Thanks for The Road, and The Journey
With You Always Leading
I Shall Arrive Safely Home At The Closing of Earth's Days!
I Love You, Lord! ******* No Bells and Whistles Required! Just Common Faith and Steadfast Belief in God!
Satan had a Town Hall Meeting That He wanted Man to Appear at and Hear That he was not as bad as Stipulated That it was Superstition that made him out to be a Roaring Lion Killing men and making people submit to him in Abject Fear! Satan had invited The Cream of his Crop Of Witches, Warlocks, Psychiatrists and Ex-exorcist-Priests Who would Testify in Glowing Tirade That Satan was a Myth A Fairy tale, Folk Lore Bewitched Old Family and Heretical Apostate Churchmen Beliefs! There were even those in the midst Dressed as Ram Goat Wearing 6 6 6 and not giving a hoot And even someone wearing a Red Suit With Forked Tongue and Pitchfork to Boot And passing out Bags of Lovely Loot! Book Writers even trotted out their compilations Showing that tales of Satan were just that: "Tales!" For according to The Record long maintained Satan was a Giant Lizard Snake Goat Dragon Hag Steel Donkey Fake! There was even "Someone" who gave a "Testimony" Of Satan being a Person Misunderstood Of Satan being God - not Jesus Of Satan being Seriously Misrepresented since The Great Flood! All around the set speakers had their Love Fest All around the Oppressed looked seriously Shell-shocked That was until a Soft Quiet Voice loudly Spoke up And put That Old Satan on The Witness Dock!
"Mr. Satan, please state your Full Name for The Record?
Please state for us your Lineage, if you could would?
Please tell from Whence you are Hailing, and
Please tell, by God's Holy Truth, how you came to be Misunderstood?
Would you tell, if you would, your Thought Process
When you met Eve in The Garden that Fateful Day?
Would you tell Why, if you would, you Corrected Her words
When God Himself said that Death would be Hers
If She His Living Word Disobeyed?
Would you, Mr. Satan, tell us the Truth of
1 John 5:7-8?
If this is God's Truth - please state same
And if it a Lie - explain how, and by Whose Hand it about came?
Would you, if you would, tell why you Hate Christ Jesus?
Would you, if you would, tell why Human Worship is your Sole Soul Desire?
Would you, if you would, tell why you're Obsessed with
Getting as many Humans as you can to join you in Hell's Fire?
Would you tell, if you would, why you Raised Up Your Self
Above Almighty God, The Creator of One and All?
Would you, if you would, please Bear Record, of The Truth
The Real Truth, of Noah's Time, and The Cause of The Great Flood?
Would you, if you would, Speak to Your Obsession
With The Rainbow and The Covenant to Man of Almighty God?
Would you state The Facts, Not Opinions, Not Hacks
Of why you Edit God's Words To Give Your Lies a "Viable" Truth?
Would you, if you would, please tell - in Truth's Words - of The Cost of
Your Rebellion Against God
And The True Impact it has had on Humanity?
Would you, if you would, tell Completely
Why you Lie, Daily Lie, to Deceive All Humanity
With Tripe, Trifles, Strife and Desperate Inanities?
Would you, if you would, use the words of This King James Holy Bible
To Prove that Everything you are about to Say is God's Own Truth?
Would you, if you would, Show Your True Self and
Not Dressed up in Light and Shining with "Truth" so Mesmerizingly Bright?
Would you, if you would, tell The Seeking-After-God People
Why you have Engineered to make them Believe that you are God Good, and
Why you have Set up your Demonic Hoard of Disciples
To make people Believe that Jesus Christ himself Usurped Your God-Person-hood?
Mr. Satan, you say that your Vaunted Reputation is all a Fiction
A Fabrication, A Lie
Made-Up, Fable, Myth and
Just a Writer's License to Get Sales!
If this is Truly your Position, please Explain then Your Creator's Word against you in
Isaiah 14;12-15, Ezekiel 28:14-17, 1 Peter 5:8, and Revelation 12:7-12?
In The Name of Jesus Christ
Declare to these People that You and Your Reputation are a Lie!
If not, then in Jesus' Holy Name tell them God's Own Truth
That you, Sir, are The Liar, The Fraud
The Wannabe Holy God
Who Hates them with Perfect Hatred
Because they are Loved by The Holy Lord
The True and Living Eternal Creator - Yours and Mine - God!"
The Place was in Total Uproar! Satan Couldn't Contain Himself anymore and His Disguise Erupted and Tore and Tore And, with Crass Imprecations For the Bedevilment of Man He Fled through the closed up middle side open door! After the Clamor Died Down And all but the Questioner had sat down Another stood up and made a Statement Asking all to look to Jesus and take care for He said, for this Work here today Satan will try to make us Pay But, Trust and Bless God, and by God's Grace We will have Nothing from Satan to fear!
"Be Sober Be Vi-gi-lant The Devil is a Straight Up Scamp Who has Nothing Better To Do But your Faith to Lay Waste! Pray, and Prepare! Satan has his Snares, but If you Trust God's Word You have a Sword With which you can That Wicked Old Satan Away scare!"
I was offered "The Life!" I could have Anything! I could do Everything! I could be Somebody's Something! I was Offered A Contract! If I Did ... Then He Would Do ... ! He promised he would Show Me A Good Time With many of those things froufrou! I was Disappointed! I did not want to have Fun! I wanted The Commitment! I wanted Permanency even through The Strife and Satan's Bedevilment! I wanted The Covenant! No Running Away! No Possibility ever of One of Us Walking Away! I Turned and I ... Resolutely ... I Turned and I Walked - Not Quite Sadly - Away. THEN I MET ... HIM! He Offered Me The Covenant! He Offered Me HIS Life! I will be His Forever but ... My Life Will be Filled With Strife! I will have to Endure Many Things! I will have to Ignore Everything! I must Believe that Despite Uncertainties that The Good Life is at The End Of The Way of Suffering! I Looked in His Eyes - a Burning Flame His Heart is Plainly Revealed - Body Riven and Hole Pierced! I Blessed The Almighty and Our Covenant is Sealed - being with Him gives Me No Disgrace! My Uncertainties Point To The Promise The Promise Points to The Holy Way The Holy Way is Certain - Laid Out And I'm Walking with Him Day By Day! When I'm Down He Lifts Me Up! When I'm Happy I Sing To Him - and I Pray! And all the while - No Matter The Matter He Speaks To Me and there is No Smell of Truth Decay! I Met Him and We Married! I walk with Him - He cannot Stray And I know when This Life is Over In New Life We'll be Together For Ever, and Ever More On That Wholly Holy Peaceful Blessed Shore!
The Noise was Deafening The Atmosphere Carnival The Barkers were Dedicatedly Offering To Any and All The World's Myriad Joys and Toys!
I had Visited The Carnival on many an occasion I always had Money with which to Pay Play But for Some Reason on This Occasion I Wondered, at The Entrance Exit What Would I Get Gain on This Foray? I Wandered Around for a short short while for Direction Seemed To Matter Today And then ... Then ... I saw HIM And My Heart Went After Him in a Big Way! He had no Stall! He had no Barker! He stood Tall! He had Kindly Eyes! He Spoke with Intensity and Passion And not a word He spoke said: "Lie!" There was no Jostling Crowd around Him! No Music! No Madness! No Burly Men To Restrain those who got too Rambunctious! There was Quiet and Peace ... for those Listening! He used words like: Rest and Relief Grace and Mercy Calling Everyone to from Sin Cease, and Offering, yes, Peace, Joy, Rest and Comfort to The Riven Soul And I Felt My Body Grow Warm Hot Cold! I Knew Him - this ... Man! I Recognized Him In My Heart - The Blessed Son of Man! I'd Found what I Unconsciously Sought and My Wanderers Tickets To Fun needed no longer to be Bought! I Talked to Him! He said:
"Come."
I Listened to Him! He said:
"You Need No More To Run
for
I Offer You Life, Liberty
and
Freedom for Your Soul!
Take Up Your Cross!
Fit Your Yoke!
Bear Your Burden
and
I Will You hold!
Walk The Straight Path
and
At The End
I Will Return To Carry You
to
The Eternal Home!"
This Meeting Felt Right! I had The Kingdom in My Sight! I had a Task, and A Road to Follow, and A Home to Achieve! I Gave The World My Back! I Did Will Not Look Back - Not in My Heart And Not Physically! And I Removed The World Off My Sleeve As The Love of Him Who Is The Master I Humbly Gratefully Received! For Me, The Carnival Is Over! My Disgrace Is Permanently Displaced! My Home In Heaven Is Paid-Booked, for The Hand of The Savior - By His Blessing - I Took!
