Worth the Fight- Dedication To My Students

My voice rings from wall to wall,
Attention class, it’s time for roll call.
Can’t you see
How important you are to me?

My goal was to teach,
Better yet to educate,
I know you’re almost gone,
But I pray to God it’s not too late


To show the way, the truth, the light,
Don’t give up,
It’s worth the fight.

See, I’ve been where you are
I totally understand,
Life can be so hard,
There are so many demands.

Sometimes you need to cry,
But you must be strong,
I may not always be right,
But I’d never lead you wrong.

I once was teen,
I wanted to give up the fight,
But I knew I deserved more
And others saw my light.

You think no one’s listening,
Yet, I hear you so clear
I pledge to make a difference in your life
By the end of the year

I don’t teach for the check,
I teach for you,
I’m not here for the vacations,
I spend my summers worried about you.

I go home at night
And say God protect my kids
The world can be so crazy,
On Monday’s I relieved he did.

If no one has ever said you can make it,
Well here it goes today,
You are strong and smart,
Don’t listen to what others say.

You are here for a reason,
What doesn’t kill you makes your stronger,
Good things will come your way,
Just wait a bit longer.

Sometimes I ask God if
Teaching is what he has for me,
But when I look at your faces,
There’s no place I’d rather be.

I’m used to a challenge,
I don’t quit-I will fight,
But the fight I have now,
Is to change someone’s life.

Dr Faustus

Dr Faustus signed a pact
Not realising the fact
That great magical aspirations
Are only mental formations

To the devil he gave his soul
Who did not fulfill his role 
And laughed in his lair
While Faustus was in despair

He disintegrated mentally
by leaving god completely
He wished for his own destruction
To once again gain salvation

To God at last he raised his hands
To ask for grace and forgiveness

This poem Was inspired by the play 'Dr. Faustus' by Christopher Marlowe

Premium Member The Downfall of King Solomon

THE DOWNFALL OF KING SOLOMON

Great King Solomon, wisest of the rulers of Israel,
The favored son of King David, who was beloved of our God,
Did fall from grace in his old age,
Though God suffered him for years.
He warned him and He warned him,
That his actions would bring tears.

Solomon's wealth and power,
Were known both far and wide,
And kings from other countries,
Brought their daughters for his brides.
But God said,"Solomon be wise,
Send them away from you,
For they are vile before My eyes,
And all their daughters too.
If you accept them in My son,
Their sins will be on you."

But Solomon paid the Lord no mind,
He welcomed those kings in,
Made pacts, alliances and deals,
Ignoring grievous sins,
Committed by these kings and queens,
Acts that God abhorred,
And took unto him concubines,
And wives before the Lord.

Women that God told him,
Were unclean before His eyes,
And that they'd bring their gods with them,
So strong would be their ties,
That Israel would follow them,
And he would fall from grace,
And that's just how it happened,
That Solomon lost face.

Seven hundred took he them,
And even their gods too.
He let them build their temples,
And went in with them too.
His heart was turned away from God,
By the company he kept.
He followed other gods with them,
And God, Himself, wept.

That's what's happening here today,
They're coming here in droves,
Fleeing from oppression,
That their way of life enclosed.
They say our God offends them,
And we shouldn't honor Him,
Well their god offends me too,
So the same is just for them.

They wish to take away from us,
The very thing they seek,
Denying us our freedoms,
Our own laws have made us weak.
We are infidels to them,
And of little consequence,
They'll change our laws and change our God,
I say it don't make sense.

We'll fall from grace like Solomon,
Lose all that we hold dear,
Our freedom gone, we'll lose our land,
Then hide and quake in fear.

1Kings 10-11

WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFE Y'ALL!!!
IT'S THE SAME THING THAT'S HAPPENING TODAY!

What Will Lust Do?

Lust will make you drop out of school  Allowing ungodly relationships to rule  Lust will cause 
you to be stringed along while those that don't love you treat you wrong  Lust will make you 
leave your spouse and kids  Allowing adultery to set in  Lust will make you stay out all night 
like a devouring lion with an aggressive appetite  Lust will make you cling to ungodly ways 
allowing incarceration to take you away  Lust will make you desire a coke bottle figure 
instead of a god fearing woman with a good heart within her  Lust will make you seek a 
masculine six pack instead of a god fearing man that has your back  Lust will make you crave 
masculine and feminine wealth taking trips to the clinic Trying to destroy your health  There 
are many corrupt things that lust will do, but the main objective is to destroy you

The Watchers

Sheep or goat,
Think the God believers,
Watching every child with hidden eyes,
They seem to have lost interest in me now,
As for me the God delusion is over.
