What Am I To Be Sad About
God bless those who are the readers of these words
Well God bless the people that read these verses or In this passage our truth be told from my experience
these are the facts and the truths that should be shared in our life's
Or in my younger life I thought death was wrong
But you have to be taught it comes from sin
and within all that you have to be taught and shown
It was through Adam's disobedience that has left us
Forever physically tattered and torn
Are no longer can the physical body live eternally forever
It must not be separated from the spirit and go back to the dirt the clay
In which it was made
For if we honor him my God, our God
Choose and choose to make the right decisions
We will not be imprisoned we will not be enslaved
And left in the firery molten burning blazing Hades
For the first death the separation from the spirit and the flesh is a journey it's not the end
When repented of one sins and you're born again it's a new beginning of a new Journey
So when you relinquish oneself you are Heavenly blessed to live eternity
But the almighty Creator Jehovah-jireh my Lord and King God who Reigns
Now a songwriter said I may not be the best but I am blessed
He goes on and says give me what to say in thine own special way
I want to feel your spirit move inside me
And for as long as I live I want to give I want to live for you on word and forever and always
Place my past Generations through death whatever I'm to be sad about
I've seen my mother-in-law gasp her last breath and she died there what am I to be sad about
2016 lost my wife of 40 years she died what have I to be sad about
2017 lost my job of 25 years what have I to be sad about
Got blessed with another job at a different locale different business
But on August 11th 2017 they to cited like the job of 25 years called a for a staff reduction
And yes some may feel that this hurts
And that I was treated like dirt
But what have I to be sad about
No wife very very few friends
No job no income a few bills a mortgage
What what have I to be sad about
Lost the next door neighbor a brother a friend he was murdered by him ex convicts a father and son
My neighbor my brother my friend is named was John Francis flying
Murdered and killed was his wife toddler son and his niece
What have I to be sad about
My mother died when she was 39
She never met or got to know her daughter-in-law or her grandchildren
Whatever I got to be sad about
I have been impoverished but never poor
I've been mentally enslaved but never ignored
Doors have been closed physically but never spiritually
I've been up and down but never stayed on the ground
I've been lost but now I am found
what have I to be sad about
Never been sick or sickly I rebuke cancers none of that in me
I have been seen but I'm ignored
But in the name of Jesus not anymore
Been bankrupt un and underemployed as I said earlier just lost my job
As you read the words you may think it odd
That I can say what do I have to be sad about
what do I have to be mad about
What do I have to be glad about
But my whole reason of being
Is to share my testimony
I may be alone but I'm not lonely
I may have lost my job but I got some money
I have a house lay my head a place to sleep in I got to bed
I have a reasonable portion of good health strength sound mind
I'm not ill I am healthy
My test is my testimony
now I'm going to end this verse these words and to some others this rhymes
don't want to be too long and bore you about my going on
I just leave you with this thought
What all of this negativity going on in my life
What about got to be sad about
If you see me in person I'll still rejoice
You can see the light in my face and you can hear it in my voice
I've I lost a lot but I still got my life
And with that all I have left is ...
I got
Jesus Christ
AMEN
