Premium Member Lightness Appearing As Heavy

"Things"

May seemingly

Get heavy in 

What appears as life

For no one..

Burdens and

Frustrations which are

Stories of suffering

Appearing as This..

Lightness appearing

As heavy...

Premium Member At He Risk of Appearing Repetitive

At the risk of appearing repetitive

This poem is again about love

What else in life is all encompassing

It's at the core of all that we do

More important than anything else by far

However love is not always part of the equation

Nations battle for land and power

Love is furthest from their evil minds

They must have an extra special gene

That doesn't exist in normal well-adjusted people

Perhaps an unhappy loveless childhood

Unhappy parents, setting a bad example

No love, lack of caring, no commitment

When those are not part of one's upbringing

People sometimes can become jaded

And think conflict is a natural part of life

I'm surely not making excuses for deviant behaviour

At some point in one's life

We all reach a point when reality overtakes

And loving, law abiding forces, rule our lives

However there are still extreme cases

And that's when these forces become so strong

That evil acts seem quite natural

They see these as normal occurrences in life

Just like the rising and setting of the sun

But love still remains the most potent force

At the risk of appearing repetitive

The love we have at our disposal

Gives us a reason to try to be the best

Most loving person, we can be

Premium Member My God, Thank You For Appearing Unto Me

September 8 Scripture Meditations Based on Matthew 1-3

Key Verse – Matthew 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream…

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR APPEARING UNTO ME

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your salvation’s assurance
Indeed rescuing my soul from hell-fire’s endurance
And giving me life everlasting’s insurance
So that I can pursue holiness-perseverance.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your regeneration’s provision
Indeed meeting my needs from scarcity’s sanction
And feeding me through bountifulness’ production
So that I can enjoy contentment-satisfaction.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your redemption’s graciousness
Indeed guarding my spirit from sinfulness’ perilousness
And ransoming me against doubtfulness’ possessiveness
So that I can live for truth-righteousness.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your adoption’s certainty
Indeed changing my status from earthliness’ futility
And transforming me toward heavenly eternity
So that I can overcome selfishness-gravity.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your sanctification’s cleansing
Indeed purifying my heart from iniquities’ cursing
And purging me through hypocrisy-guilt’s rinsing
So that I can receive honesty-blessing.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your justification’s pardon
Indeed pulling my direction from worldliness’ icon
And forgiving me in my confession when pride in me has won
So that I can bear good works’ fruits in due season.

Thank You for appearing unto me with Your conversion’s victory
Indeed strengthening my faith from doubt’s injury
And refining me for soulwinning’s glory
So that I can declare Gospel story.

Premium Member Appearing On the Telly

If you were on telly, how would you feel
Terrified, comfortable, or attack it with zeal
Though this old boar
Has been on before
Still seems unnerving and a wee bit surreal

Fear False Expectations Appearing Real

The whole world is in panic
The whole world is in fear!
They don’t know what the truth is 
But they are zapped with what they hear 

A virus has attacked us! 
It is going to wipe out the world! 
It is going to kill us all…
Through the media, we are told

Is it a danger, is it real? 
Or is this just a myth? 
As long as we live in fear
We will never realize the truth

Of course, it has killed thousands 
And it’s mainly the old
The young will mostly get away, 
With a fever, cough and cold

The Coronavirus is a champion
It seems to have a tactic
Though many it appears to infect 
But for some, it is asymptomatic

Therefore, we don’t know the numbers 
Who are actually killed by the virus 
There are many with heart and lung disease 
Are they dying because of this?

The whole world is in panic
They think of COVID they will die 
They have locked themselves in their houses 
Unable to enjoy the sky

Of course, we must take precautions 
And stay away from one with a cough 
But to shut down the entire world 
That is way off!

Fear is the cause of this panic
It is making a mountain of a molehill 
Far more than the Coronavirus
It is Fear that will kill

F E A R is False Expectations Appearing Real 
The mind creates this thought
But once paralyzed by this panic 
In anxiety we are caught

Why are we scared, why do we fear?
Why are humans given this gift? 
God gave us this instinct for a reason 
From real dangers, so we can drift 

There are many types of fears
Some even fear a loud sound
Some fear to go up in the sky
Some fear a lizard on the ground!

Fear often grows into a phobia 
An irrational fear of something
Dentophobia is a fear of the dentist 
And claustrophobia, a crowd of anything 

Some have zoophobia – fear of animals, 
Some arachnophobia – fear of spiders 
With aerophobia, there is fear of flying 
And cyberphobia - fear of computers 

Finally, the question that matters most 
Is fear actually real?
Fear is not a danger, fear doesn’t kill 
It’s just an Expectation that Appears Real

But when fear attacks us
And fills our body and mind
The rascal makes us suffer
And makes our life a grind

Fear is not a danger
There is a difference in these two 
A danger can attack us
But fear just makes us feel blue


Premium Member My God, Thank You For Appearing Unto Me

January 26 Scripture Meditations Based on Leviticus 16-20

Key Verse – Leviticus 16:2 And the LORD said ... for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR APPEARING UNTO ME
 
Thank You for appearing unto me through Your mercy
Surely welcoming me to come unto Your throne without complacency
In order to commune with me in fellowship’s fervency
For my faith to grow in Your gracious persistency.

Thank You for appearing unto me through Your holiness
Surely hallowing me with Your righteousness
In order to forgive me of my confessed wickedness
For my testimony to shine in Your light’s brightness.

Thank You for appearing unto me through Your commandment
Surely purging me from disobedience-defilement
In order to lead with me to submission’s fulfillment
For my offerings to be acceptable upon Your sacrifice-settlement.

Thank You for appearing unto me through Your Word
Surely teaching me principles of divine record
In order to exhort me by Your statutes and precepts’ accord
For my conviction to rest upon Your truth-ford.

Thank You for appearing unto me through Your sanctuary
Surely facing me in worship-glory
In order to revive me toward victory
For my praises to express gratitude to You, devoid of worry.

Thank You for appearing unto me through Your name
Surely reminding me of Your awesome fame
In order to awaken me from sinfulness-shame
For my character to be conformed to Your image of no blame.

Every day.. 
As I Look up.. in to the Heavens
Waiting and wondering
When Shall YOU..   Appear

With Trumpets..  Sounding

For Everyone's ear..  to Hear.. of YOUR Coming
For Everyone's.. eye .. so Shall.. to See..
Your Magnificent.. Glorious Appearing
High in the Sky.. for whomsoever
belongs to thee

YOUR.. Returning for Us
As All.. the Angels Sing

Our Magnificent King!
Jesus Christ! ..Our Savior! 
So Ever.. Shall Reign!..

For I know.. You have given
Moments and chances
For them to come

For didn't they even realize
Out of Love.. the price you paid.. for their lives
As You come unto them like a thief in the night

Sheer Ecstasy of Pure Light

Every day and night.. as I look up to the sky
In hopes to see.. the heavens open wide
Is Your Glorious appearing tis come tonight???

Come to Jesus..  be ready.. For His Glorious Appearing

Inspired by God.. tis a song.. God blessed me with.. 
Love always in Christ.. *Star Light

The Moon Was Just Appearing

I saw the moon was just appearing
behind the dark arms of wide trunks,
then hovering above the leaves ends
but what about trunks those nourished arms,
were still in ignorance of light.
behind the trunks everything was;but in dense
the source with glittering lit enlightened front
but what about the back of living things
were appearing, just the things behind
in the darkness of suspended light
i too watched a little shadow,it shared
to me a displaced body leaving darkness
may it lead to fade me at best
one leaving made me think about me
the ultimate change it going to be-
i felt my darkness lighted
and halted to watch myself
a tiny dark point let me know
to me and the moon and the trunks
the side that light made, was not the side
i could not know before the change
the change i need, don't let me know the light.

Premium Member Appearing Eyes

Have you ever seen
Eyes that appear before you
Right out of thin air
A creepy feeling inside
No voice, just the eyes in view

I can’t believe it
That this has happened to me
I was just walking
Down my lonely street, right there
The eyes were staring at me

I was frightened sure
Until I remembered what
I had on my side
I reached into my pocket
And I sprayed this pair of eyes

Prevalent Appearing Horn Tattoo Poems

Prevalent Appearing Horn Tattoo Poems

Before she became much older,
Tattoo appeared on her shoulder;
If body bare,
Would stare;
What we should do is scold her.

We all were afraid of a family feud,
On her arm she had been tattooed;
We read,
Never bled,
Seen so clearly viewed in the nude.

Jim Horn

Will add more later after I have
finished them.

The Signs Are Appearing

I think of all the mistakes I’ve made,
   Then I think about the price our dear Savior paid.
And it makes me feel guilty all the wrongs I have done,
   And could I allow those things done to Jesus done to my son.
And sometimes I think we really don’t care,
   With all the killing and stealing and filthy words that we swear.
We show respect when it is convenient for us is the way that it seems,
    When there is no one else to turn to, is when our faith really beams.
Maybe it was just too long ago, is it a sign that we need?
     Revelation is being filled everyday that we speak so we have to pay heed!
The seals are being opened and the trumpets are blowing,
    Repent of your sins and stop evil from growing.
The choices are simple but you’d better choose wise,
    Satan is out there to tempt you with his sugar coated lies.
I by no means am perfect but we all have to try,
    To live our lives for Jesus before we should die.
Death can come up on us anytime day or night,
    Lay down your sinful ways and ask for forgiveness do it tonight.
The world is out of control it’s changing so fast,
    Signs are all around us don’t think it can last.
Politicians are saying that God doesn’t belong,
   In schools or at work well I say that they are wrong.
Today I can speak but I don’t know how much longer,
   The ones against God seem to be growing stronger and stronger.
He suffered for us so we should suffer for Him,
    Should we have to stick our neck out let’s stick it way out on the limb.
