What Is God Really Like

Who can truly answer this question?
God is eternal and always has been
He is a spirit without body or form
no person can say God they have seen

Jesus is God. He said so in His word
also, saying seeing me, you see the father
for in the trinity, one God in three persons
paints His picture of all He will gather

In our modern hi-tech PC world
we can't picture God nor even guess
even kids' bible picture books
show only human ideas of God's likeness

So there is no way we can know
with absolute certainty of God the Lord
we must trust in His authoritative word
which speaks of God's sharp-edged sword

God is our great founder and creator
this world didn't just come out of nothing
for God is full of love, care and mercy
He is one, maker of all which He brings

Million Dollar Voices

I met a homeless man whose name
I don't recall, but he had what sounds like
A million dollar voice.

I met Cal who said he was an electrician
which is not a career requiring great voice quality;
But he had a million dollar voice.

Tim used to own a swimming pool business.
He was homeless when I met him.
But he had a million dollar voice.


I thought such a voice would bring greater success.
So, I have often longed for a voice more like theirs;
One with a little more base and a little less tenor;

One that quickly commands attention when spoken.
God chose not to give me such an authoritative voice.
But I have not declined to use the voice God gave to me.

Anyway, at the end of the day,
It's not about the tenor or the base.
It's about what the voice actually said.

God's Word Stands Forever - Isaiah 40: 8

Grass grows so fully green
field upon field blade upon blade
but one day the grass will wither
each blade carefully and specially made

A flower grows so full of colours
with highs and lows in every stem
such fragrance on every corner
so beautiful to look upon these gems

It's like any seed sown in the ground
when it grows it blooms bright
but in time it will fade away
like the morning when it turns to night

The only thing that will count
is God's eternal authoritative word
trust God's word, it endures forever
those who reject this truth are absurd

("The grass withers, the flower fades,
    but the word of our God will stand forever.")
Isaiah 40: 8 (ESV)

Dawn Raid v2

A sudden crash awakens the night.
Thundering boots stomp,
heightening fear.
Little spots of light dart across the room. A half-naked man, bewildered and angry,
a wall of blue invaders violated his castle.
Pinned to his bed, with a truncheon to his throat,
he hears a woman's hysterical pleas for mercy, 
unaware of their crimes.

A singular figure stands tall, self-righteous,
demanding their passports in an authoritative voice.

" Are you married to this woman?" 
" Are you a permanent resident?"

These are the questions asked by the invaders.

If this sounds familiar, you would be wrong,
New Zealand in the 60s. One of her proudest moments?

Once dubbed the land of milk and honey of the Pacific,
inviting her poorer cousins to part-take in her fortune.

Then she ridiculed and scorned her guests,
labeled overstayers by her gracious host,
with the blessings of her white populace.

My fellow countrymen do not wish to be reminded of such events.
In this land of milk and honey, covered in sheep dip.

It is good to remember, in case we forget and repeat,

Lest we forget the lessons of our past.

The Life-Saving Truth Of God

We live in a world of sinfulness
mankind has ignored God's ways
seeking to do their very own thing
bringing our world to disarray

Is it any wonder our present state
surely it's plain to see the reason why
for God has given His authoritative word
deny His word and you'll spiritually die

Jesus, God's son came to redeem
becoming our substitute on Calvary's tree
taking our sin as His very own
Christ became the blessed saviour to be

God's gospel is to be preached
so all who hear can be made new
a new creation in Christ is our reward
make sure this salvation is for you

God's word is His living truth
which transforms us inside out
but refuse it at your very peril
for hell will come to those in doubt

The final day will bring judgement
after that day there's no second chance
so be sure to be found in Christ
connected in Him your living branch

The Good Doctor - Mlj

The good doctor as MLJ was better known
trained and qualified as a Medical Doctor
membership of Royal College of Physicians
Sir Thomas Howdens assistant now did see

God for two years drew him out
to be a preacher of the gospel
began in his native land of Wales
calling sinners out of their prison cell

I became a believer in 1982
MLJ passed away to glory in '81
so never had an opportunity to see him
but read much to teach me how I grew

So listened to many of his sermons
read his life story, gave much to excite
how God used him in London city
Westminster Chapel to pastor by God's might

Even yet love to read his writings
such a depth but so very plain
clearly proclaiming God's authoritative word
so to receive the Lord's blessed rain

MLJ was a expositer bar none
many thousand would go to hear
so Dr. Lloyd-Jones is my favorite doc
for his preaching pins, you like a spear

(My favorite doctor was Dr. Martyn Lloyd -Jones (1899-1981), a truly faithful preacher of the gospel of God's grace,
A real expository preacher of God's divine word, the Bible.)

The Bramble

In the day of digital, I withdrew all my cash;
one hundred and seventy-three
and drove around town buying up
all the roses that I could see.

Will this conglomerate of different colors
which make up a traveling bramble
touch her heart as I need it to,
a garden of my silent ramble?

I walk to her door,
face hidden by petals and thorns,
a desperate madman seeking redemption
for which I wish her soul to be adorn.

But it would not be, I didn’t get it right,
I’m surrounded by blue and red authoritative lights.

Tame Yourself

You are born with a purpose to serve,
Render service from your heart, in totality

Age would fail to guide you, miserably
If you don't display versatility with time.

Education shall prove a big redundancy
If you don't sail along the current of modernity. 

Contemplate not on destroying others
With coercively authoritative complex.ity.

Humanity seeks your iota of attention,
Lay hands with a wee act to garner merits. 

Life would becomes a humongous waste
If you cling on to your a venomous intention.

Spirituality is only a way to liberation
Of self and beyond, practice when you've energy.

Selflessness is the language of spiritualism,
Give yourself away taming your thoughts and action.s.

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr

Hungering and Thirsting After the Real Thing

What and who is this almighty God?
He has no beginning and is everlasting
consider what His word says of His person
His son Jesus reveals Him in everything

God is real with a powerful effect
for He speaks in His authoritative word
this word can cut us to the quick
so thorough that our souls are stirred

The Lord God Himself makes us hunger
giving us such desire upon Him alone
for only God can really truly satisfy 
as in Jesus whose sacrifice did atone

Without receiving the real spiritual drink
we faint with thirst for that cup
Jesus alone fills our parched soul
then we know His way takes us up

Are you in contact with the real thing?
is it just religion or is Jesus real?
look deep for evidence of a genuine touch
be sure you've found the divine seal

(Quotation:  “We can know if we have encountered the real God if we are deeply hungry and thirsty for him. The sense of his absence, the dissatisfaction with his absence, is evidence that he has touched you.”
- quotation by Tim Keller (1950-now) Pastor and Minister.)

Being a Faithful Witness - Mark 16: 16

Jesus left a message to His disciples
His word was authoritative and always true
having made us His disciples, it's for us
this word gives instructions what we're to do

God's word tells us we are witness's
to go into all of the world His word to spread
that word conveys the gospel of His grace
tells of Jesus Christ who rose from the dead

Salvation is for those who believe in Jesus
to obey and be baptised in His name
but those who reject this wonderful gospel
will be condemned for they are to blame

To witness is to show Jesus in you
in all you would say, do and think
not everyone is maybe eloquent
but their attitude shows their vital link

God is looking for a faithful witness
one who is willing to stand his ground
for holiness, righteousness and grace
voicing forth God's glorious sound

(And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.  He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.")
                                                Mark 16:16 NKJV
