Rise and Shine, Beloved...

Rise and Shine, Beloved. O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known HIS deeds among the people Ps105:1 ~ 

For every mountain U brought me over, for every valley U've seen me thru, for every blessing U bestowed upon me, for every way U made when I knew not what to do, for every sleepless night U kept me company, for the times U stuck with me when no one else wanted to be there for me, for all the times U wiped my weeping eyes and soothed my soul's cries, for when I failed U but U didnt fail me and when I was lost U saved me, for when I wasn't fit to live and wasn't fit to die, U looked at me and called unto me saying U are MINE...

Lord, I just gotta say THANK YOU!

The Breach

The Breach...

A masterpiece ruptured
An open wound, no suture
Bleeding away, man's future

Broken bounds, broken bonds
Pained hearts, pining souls
Foraging to fill an unfillable hole

Educated, agitated, frustrated
Mind constantly pondering
Feet ceaselessly wandering

No solution, just more options
Options breeding more problems
And no man apt to solve them

But there is a God on high
A healer of those that seek
The Repairer of the breach

And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. Is58:12

Why JESUS came...

Why JESUS came...

Jesus didn't come to make you a success. HE came to save your soul. Jesus didn't come to make you a celebrity. HE came to make you a citizen of Glory. Jesus didn't come to make you popular. HE came to purpose you. Jesus didn't come to make you happy. HE came to make you holy. Jesus didn't come to make you comfortable in the earth realm. HE came to consecrate you for everlasting life in HIS presence. Jesus didn't come to be your doormat to better. HE came for HE is your only doorway to everlasting life. Jesus died for you. Will you live for HIM?

A Twinkle In God's Eye

A Twinkle in God's Eye

Together we are one
Spirit, soul, and truth
Earth is like the twinkle in God's eye
If it's HIS will
May I wake up in the morning
And be renewed and ready for
Whatever happens
Cause I'm a twinkle in God's eye.

My love is true...

My love is true.

If question arise to mind to ponder
As to whether I do truly love you,
Hesitate, consider as you wonder
The seconds, minutes, hours of me and you.
Think on the ups and downs, the ins, the outs,
The joy, the sorrow, the laughter and tears.
Who was there no matter how tough the bout?
Who was at your side to face every fear?
Who stood with you til dark night turned to dawn?
Who was at the crossroads pointing the way?
Was it me? Was not I a faithful one?
My works testify more than words can say.
Yet, I will say, display my whole life through,
For dearest, Beloved. My love is true.

My love is true.

Courage...

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. -Deuteronomy 31:6

The Genesis of Revelation

I heard that HE did that

I heard that HE said that

I heard that HE made that
I heard that HE is that
And I believe all of that 

StarPower...

Nobodies are ignored
Until they are somebodies
Then everybody's attentive

A sacrifice of love

It may go unappreciated
But it is never wasted
When it comes from the heart

The URGENCY of Now....

Not a second to wait
Not a second to waste
Tick-tock, the clock, warns

Aloof, aloft, adrift,
The undisciplined mind,
That despises instruction.

He that discovers purpose,
discovers breath, being,
The beat of his heart.
