~ Genesis ~

"In the beginning was The Word, and The Word, became flesh...." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "This is the day that the Lord has made And I shall be glad and rejoice in it...." I have often wondered if people really know What is being said within this verse from Psalm 118? But it always leads me back, to the countless other verses That I have been blessed to read, through the Holy Spirit of God How the prisoners have been set free.... With Heavens Angels encompassing, those, who truly love "Him" And though ten thousand, of the enemy surround us, we shall never fear! For God is within us; indwelling us with hope and might.... These Temples built, by The One who created all, of "Light" Life, and all that is good; from Genesis, to Psalm 104 Every word ever written, within This Treasure, called, "The Bible" Our guide, our hope, our deliverence; the promise, of eternal paradise.... For as God has said, "Angels and Prophets, have longed to know What wonders of love, that He Himself, has given us, 'Through Christ!'" Freedom from the bondage of sin; and a bridge back home, unto "Heavens Throne" All, if only they shall, return, unto His loving arms? They, that have longed to hold us, since before, the foundations of time.... Oh praise God, all of you His children, praise, "His Holy Name" For who is like unto Our Father; who can stand, before His mighty wrath? Surely not the fallen angels, whom tremble, at His very sight! And if He did not spare they; though they be mightier than us; or even, "His Only Son" Then how can the godless ever believe, that He shall somehow, spare them? No, for truly, wisdom begins in the house of the Lord.... In this the day that He has made, for all of those whom love Him!? Whom turn from the darkness and the evil desires of this world The wantons of pleasures, powers and lust; mere dust Casting aside their pride and ignorance; naiveness; amid the idols of baal These secular things....And turning again, with their heads bowed down, to "The Father of Light!"....Accepting His Son's Sacrifice...."Through His Precious Blood" ..............................................."The Blood, of Life!"............................................... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And I shall forever, rejoice, within "It!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ The Books of Peter ~
