Best Faithlife Poems
Just once I wish that someone
else could see things the way I see,
but through the eyes of another,
they think that it's just me.
When I look into the mirror I
don't like what I see,
but through the eyes of another,
I'm as good as I can be.
I see and hear alot of things
that other people don't,
but through the eyes of another,
they say forget it but I won't.
People always tell me just
take things day by day,
but through the eyes of another,
maybe I should find another way.
I live my life in so much pain
because of the love'd one's I have lost,
but through the eyes of another,
it's just another path to cross.
I get so mad at myself for
the way I handle things,
but through the eyes of another,
they just don't care what it brings.
This life I have lived just
seems to be unfair,
but through the eyes of another,
I made it through on a wing and prayer.

Some write to write, others to please their own romance and love
I write to enchant thy heart, and thy imagination, thy vision
To tell yee the truth I write to please my desire, to fulfill a personal mission
For I am to touch the souls of men into the right path with God our lord from above
When yee find thyself in the open pause thy heart and look at your surroundings
Pay audience to nature herself, for she comes alive but by His breath of life that creates
Open thy ear, feel the peace that flows in the open air, hear yee not the wind it sings!
Whom but all poets shall come to open eyes, for their gift is to see and write to appreciate
Walk in thy own path, make thy own life come to life
Thank Him everyday for thy joy, for thy own peace
For sooner than the sun sets for eternity will His return be, and all time will cease
Drink thy wine, live life with joy, and be true to thy wife
For it is promised that yee shall receive no more than thee can bare
As He knows of thy hearts smallest desires, and will provide, if thee seeks Him first
Jump with tears of gratitude, for He promised a Bright tomorrow
Will no one believe, as in the times of Noah? Believeth so for all must end, all sorrow
With each passing sun He nears
Yet the world stands idly by, no one even fears
The heart of the earth finds itself celebrating and ill in fake cheers
Little do they know, that He will arrive in times of sleep and with an army of spears
Hear the message for it is not I that write to thy aid, but our Lord himself for he loves us all
as all men were created equal, and some to speak to hearts
Feel the burden that dwells on my heart, and read on before thy soul departs
Rejoice in my art, as I bring about the art that comes from the heart
Death is but life and life is death, I wonder,
Where does the spirit go when it's released?
Many beliefs have a different thought,
The body is just breathing that has ceased.
We wonder how many years we have left,
We live them like there is no tomorrow,
We dance in sunshine and run from thunder,
Death is but life and life is death, I wonder.
Everyone has their own personal sins,
Hiding in a closet they built of fear,
All have free will to have them unleashed,
Where does this spirit go when it's released?
So many religions do not agree,
The true path to God is forever sought,
I choose to chase spirituality,
Many beliefs have a different thought.
We all have struggles way down deep inside,
With cracks and holes and roads that have now creased,
Believer, atheist, agnostic, all.
The body is just breathing that has ceased.
All you've done is done, no reason to cry,
There is much more as far as I can see,
Did you once try to help humanity?
Is this your blown up personality?
Death is but life.
The ooze keeps flowing; bleeding, the earth cries,
"Someone help!! Stop the leaching; stop the black death!!"
Cover the wounds of greed, cover the sickness.
Help the innocent lives, being destroyed by this flow.
Pulsing, life of the USA, our heartbeat is weakening with each gallon lost.
Who will revive the country? Who is our super hero? Who has the courage?
Black gold has turned to our death.
**Thank God for our mothers, family and friends.
God in heaven, hear my plea, give the engineers the knowledge to stop the oil flow
into the Gulf and help the sea life to escape. Keep the people safe who work and live
on the coast and restore the economy of the USA. Forgive us our sins, keep us safe,
praise you for your blessings!! I pray in Jesus's name, Amen Thank you Jesus!!
My dearest friend, i truly hope these words of council find you well
Word has come upon my ear that you are in much need of a warm speech
Means find me not suited to come exchange words personally, yet my soul is with you
Yes many moons have passed since we last stood to our own shadows, this i cant deny
Only if you knew of recent events that have scared my spirit deeply ever now
Loose not thy faith, for at times like this it is the only warmth that one could find real
The hand of life presses firmly on, yet i plea to you and stand strong it will be hard
Open your eyes, and bless Him that loves us all, His life he gave that you may draw breath
Gently feel the wind, listen it whispers of better times that are still to come
Pay mind to the wise council of God, for joy lays in the days of he whom keeps it
Lift your troubles, embrace the present, look back knowing it's long gone
Learn if you can, mistakes only aid the growth of wisdom in each spirit
Ignore the tounges that speak to their own benefit, seek the joy of your own soul
Dont you see tomorrow they claim their joy, least you whom still seeks to theirs
Aid those whom you can, tomorrows moon will look down upon you with gratitude
For those whom aid the sons of God, build treasure up in heven where rust ceases to be
Let the colors of life be painted unto your canvas where your story begins
Bear the fruits of whom you are high, for life alone is but a gift
Love with your all, make mistakes we all fall short from the glory of God
He knows you better than anyone else, love Him and see his blessing poured unto you
Listen that my verse fades unto nothing, pause and take note of facts that stand
My knowledge comes from one greater over all the earth
Jehova my God loves you, take then hope beneath my wing, and angels wing
When God sends us a miracle
Do you bow your head and pray
For He reached down and touched that need
And provided you a way
He hears and knows your deepest thought
And listens when you call
Oh when God sends a miracle
You know he's given all!
He sends His miracles every day
In the seasons of this earth
The dead and dying winter sleeps
But in spring He gives new birth!
The birds that sing the flowers that bloom
All miracles come from Him
Gifts He gives us every day
To see new life begin
Each breath we breathe each beating heart
is a miracle from our King
For without Him there is no hope
Every day new gifts He brings
We watch a dear one pass from Life
And beg their soul to spare
For we need them close here by our side
Letting go we can not bear
But our precious loving God above
Knows the miracle that they need
Is a life and body made brand new
And their spirit He sets free
He gave the greatest Miracle of all
So many years ago
When He sent His son to Calvary
His blood, that cross did flow
Oh when God sends us a Miracle
There's no question it’s from Him
For Jesus paid the price for all
To free this world from sin
Let us thank Him for the Miracles now
that comes from heaven above
Oh turn you heart to Him today
Accept His endless Love
For God will give you the greatest gift
If you'll only run to Him
He'll touch your life and make it new
Oh let the miracle begin!
I thank you Lord for Miracles
You send to us each day
Thank you Lord for your great Love
and Blessings along the way
I praise you Lord for what you gave
to set me free from sin
The Miracle of Love's greatest gift
my heart holds deep within!
You have set for us a path that can always run straight,
a path of life to love to choose restore and create
This path of life confirms a truly unique freedom at hand,
sun shining bright explores the path far across the land.
Impressive light that opens many eyes so they can see,
how bright and warm the blessings are this path of life is free.
Some people claim their rich some claim to be really poor,
through love and inspiration this path of life holds more
Enjoy each awakening day through faith in immaculate conception,
What incredible resounding effects God's word over minds perception
A life of love and goodness giving to replenish some lost soul,
It is up to you to choose God's path for life will be more in control.
Something in this life
Does not accommodate us
Knowing
A purpose beyond mere living
Does not encourage us
To linger long in our inch of life
Above the paltry start of dust
Above the cancerous bleed
Of common pain
And I shall not celebrate this
Nor let go of the string of bliss
Though it slips and slides
And tear into my veins
I know I am better than
The clay
From which our life began
Because of something more
That faith alone can clutch
And hope alone can know
So when others ask
The reason for the ritual task
Of life from day to day
I in a deeper wisdom bask
A confidence
Of one who willing prays
A sense primeval
Of a corrupt upheaval
Veiling my belonging
In the wealth of who I am
For I can feel the fingers still
On the outline of my dust
The knee beside the little hill
Of space, his face bowed upon my crust
The mouth my throbbing lips embrace
The kiss of life upon my breath
The abnegation of void
The vacancy of death
And then to see
To know the first behold
The glory of who I am
The mirror murmuring with gold
The sheep above the lamb
And I will not relinquish
What grace has furnished
For me to see
Beyond the mess and mesh of flesh
Beyond the iniquity of a wretch.
Drawing and life are similar
The edges in a drawing are blended away
The tight edges in life soften with time
We love more, and see our fraility more
With blessed time, time we are given
Time to know our edges are soft
Time to know we need a loving redeemer
Time for faith to grow deep
Thanksgiving grows with a deep faith.
And as I gaze inside your eyes
Toward the depths of your priceless heart
In search of longings that have caressed my soul
Wondering, as a nomad across these planes....
For where you live and where you dream
These dreams that breathe, their breath for me
Your beauties, which I had never known....
As a star amid the celestial night
It is your treasure, that I have sought and seek
That shall eternally guide this princes path
Unto the always, and the forever beyond....
Before these moments that have marked this place
With glitters upon its golden glass
Its chalice once filled with sweetened wine
Which grew bitter, as the new day dawned
The flower that withered within these hands
That once thought itself, but a brightened rose....
And as I gaze inside your eyes
Unto the distant of a yearning soul
A nomad I have searched and been
Upon the planes of dust, this prince
Waiting, for the King of time....
Who breathed his breath of hope in me
The dreams of life that life once dreamt
Within a world, that he could never hold?
.............Holding.............

The Morning Star!
Form:
"And the Heavens gave the rains
And the earth brought forth its fruit."
We are thankful for our blessings
That You give without dilute.
We do not stop to thank You
As often as we ought
For the bounty set before us
And the life Your own Son bought.
We have Your Holy promise
Eternal life to receive.
There are no thanks sufficient
If Your promise we believe.
We come to You as children, Lord
Without a single doubt.
You have spread this feast before us
And Your gifts are all about.
We thank You for our blessings
In total gratitude
For keeping us from straying
When Evil would intrude.
We pray the world will listen
And be still to hear Your Word.
May hate be driven from all lands;
Peace be at last, restored.
On this Thanksgiving, Father
We come with open hearts
To receive the love You give us
And all that it imparts.
Amen
I cannot be
Because I cannot see
I cannot receive
Because I cannot believe
Without you here
I am swallowed by the fear
Without you here
This life is hard
When you are surrounded by confusion
This life is hard
In your mind everything is an illusion
What is real
What is it that I’m meant to feel
Without you my Lord
The days are cold and lonely
Without you my Lord
This life all seems so phony
I need you here
I need you near
I need you to be the one to guide me
I need your light so that I can see
So please listen to my soul
Please be the one to take control
For without you here with me
I simply
Simply cannot be
The End
By Greg P
the river of life
flows like a gentle stream
it refreshes our soul and makes us clean
the river of life is his waves of mercy flowing over us everyday
washing all our pain and sorrows away
the river of life flows from the throne
from which his Love has continued to have grown
the river of life will make you grow and and thrive
the river of life will make everything alive
all can come to the fountain and drink
have a little taste then see what you think
Revelation 7 : 17

“Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! Anyone who believes in me may come and drink!
For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart. Amen
Never was my life here meant to be beyond a season,
Don't ask why, for God has his reasons.
Don't be angry, for I have done what I came here to do.
So, cherish the time God gave me to be with you.
I know that your heart is heavy with grief, as mine, is for having to leave.
Cherish my life, no matter how brief.
For my life here was only meant to be, for a season.
God has come for me, to lead me back home.
He said," Your journey is over my child, it's time to move on."
I have walked the path, God laid down for me to follow,
now it is over, no more sorrow.
Always keep the faith, and never question God's reasons.
Cause my life here as only meant to be for a season.

I have heard it over and over again, "What God may allow all this pain?"
Consumed up by misery, need and grief, they come to an end with their belief.
If they look deeper in their dubious heart, and begin to absorb life from the start
They'd know that God has crafted life, for us to believe, feel and strive
Life of comfort, relief and ease, doesn’t always trigger an inner peace
Only the ones who work and reach, truly stroll along happiness beach!
God has put life as a challenging test, and guided us to do our ultimate best
HE never meant us to suffer and lose, he just gives us ways and asks us to choose.
If all the clouds get out of sight, how would we exult the bliss of light!
Or how we would value the days of rest, if not with fatigue we get possessed.
As much as we crave life's joyful side, its recurrent sadness we need to abide.
For seeing life through black lenses, will make us with time lose our senses!
The essence of belief is to always accept, whatever for you God has given or kept
No matter how bitter the present seems, or how much with pain the world screams
God only knows what the days hide, don't get deluded by the outside
Believe in Him, let your heart dare, for He always around and forever there!
