I Am a Believer In a King

I believe I do, in it all:
The story of a Manger in a Barn;
Where Mary and Joseph had laid
Jesus was here, in this barn 
He laid in that manger and played.

I believe, He's the Son of Man; 
An immaculate conception
Told by the Spirit of God 
As He came to visit, Mary, 
Throughout the night.
				
The Redeemer, a Savior; 
For humanity's fighting plight
It's foretold that He would come
For the creation of life that needed saving. 
 
They came to see the maiden of the barn;
Animals of all kinds of breeds
Feeding, watering from the troughs
They're all lying around everywhere
Waiting for the birth of a King, do not despair.	

Coming from faraway places, they do come;
The animals had no doubts about the case
For Mary was about to give birth on this day
For humanity's salvation will soon be paid.

When the Angels started Singing;
As trumpets bellow in the background
Setting a stage for a grand entrance
Of a King that was about to be.

Then, the Shepherds came walking through 
With good tidings, do they bring 
Three Wisemen following a bright Star in the Sky
Finally, Jesus Christ was born
Under That Bright Shining Star!

Bj Legros Kelley Date: 1/21/2023 12:07:00 AM I only see this now, and though Christmas is over, we still can rejoice in our King. I am so glad you are a believer William, as I read your sad blogpost, I hoped that you have our Lord to comfort you. My heart breaks for your tragic loss of a fire and your beloved pet. I will be praying. Keep us up to date brother in the Lord, My husband myself and family will keep you in our prayers <3 ~BJ Login to Reply William Darnell Sr Date: 2/3/2023 8:39:00 PM Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I am not used to it. I do not pray for my needs; it is rare if I do. I know my Lord has embedded this in my heart, and I know Someone Somewhere, in another poem I have written, is praying for me because of the love of assurance from my Trinity. I serve as a Trinity servant to help complete the Trinity, Holy Spirit, will. So, I wait for a door to be opened impatiently this time, so, part of this is a lesson, not in my time, but in His perfect timing will it be. I am not sure if this is said right, in perspective to the entirety. William Darnell Sr Date: 2/3/2023 7:10:00 PM Hi, BJ! Our Lord lives within me, and He, Christ Jesus, is always with me. I love Him with my entire being. I refuse to allow the woes I am facing to take my smile. The fact that our Lord lives within keeps me smiling. I am done here and await another door to open, but I must admit, I am not patiently waiting. So much anxiety! I am at the mercy of my fellow man. I have never been in this position, homelessness. My home is just a few houses down, and there are things salvageable, but I have no place to store them Fickle'd here, and I am trusting and keeping faith in the journey. Best Wishes, William
