"the Prince of Tides" ~

Perspectives and points of view....

The Apostle Paul once said that if one were to look upon himself as merely that of

Flesh and Blood then, they would be greatly mistaken amid their near and far Perceptions

This battle within ones own Sightful volitions?!

For though We walk in the flesh as such, We do not war amongst these matters of futility....

Yet, rather, Our weapons are mighty unto the pulling down of Strongholds by, "Grace," given ~

And although We may tarry in this body of woe; cast unto this place and earth; Times

We are not of this world; wherein such Profound absolute "Truth," shall soon be Revealed!?

Unveilings within, the Wonderous twinkling of an eye....

No, We shall forever walk boldly Adorned in these Bejeweled Vestures; awaiting 

Faiths chalice of "Loves Promises" thus, Poured; benighted, Spirits of Righteousness

"Holy;" as then We rise from the Ashes of memory, to take hold of Immortalities

Quintessence of Perfection; Infallibly made to slay the dragons of past....

Nailed to a "Crucifix" of, Everlasting Born?!

Still, for now within part, let Us groan aside most all of "Creation," as, We hold fast unto

The "Omnipotent Caressing Hands" of; Our Destinies ~

Painted upon the Emancipating Canvas' afore ever there were but even, "One Star"....

Before the Chambers and the Beams; the Oceans, the Mountains, and, the "Dreams"

Far, far away and Beyond, the ebbs of a flowings, Once upon a time!?

Standing at the Throne; "He," They and I; "Alpha and Omegas," Crowns of "Light" ~

Hearts of Cardinal Colours; swords no more; Eternities Heirs at, "Neverendings, Door"....

So much within this write of truth and light. As we choose our paths wisely, we can stand and knock for the door to open, but how much nicer to be greeted with open arms and be welcomed just as a child is unto its parents. Lovely as ever John, all well as can be here thanks, hope same with you, thanks for your comments as ever... Kindest thoughts, Anna-Marie.

John, This is just another awesome verse you've written to inspire us to live in God's will. Bless you always! These are all wonderful classics! Thanks for sharing your gift and knowledge with many. And as for the noise in the market place, it's always been there and so it will be until Our Lord returns...'tis nothing new. So, please don't be discouraged. There are troubled souls everywhere. contn'd

What a journey you have taken us on, John. I feel like I have gone through the tunnel at the end of life, seeing so many spiritual images before arriving at "Neverendings' Door." Very beautifully woven spiritual revelations, my friend. Love, Carolyn
