O God of the universes of Creation as a whole
I raise my hands; and open my heart and soul.'
Prostrate I call upon your power, to bless my
Friends in these long dark hours' these days
Long abhorred stand now at their doors, I ask
You gird their spirits with strength; enlighten their 
Minds that they drive hence' each evil time that
They may face, pray turn them into typhoons
That will remove each trace; those of fear, of doubt 
and all false pride, beside them;  I ask your power
Resides, of your angel throng assign to them 
More than they ever need, these women and men.'

Much Love to all.'

May they each put to flight any 5000 that come
Up against them in any honourable venture they
Embark upon, be that written spoken or intimated
May you be with them each one dear Lord in Jesus
Name with the Holy Spirit as witness.'

Premium Member Gaining Perspective

Looking at the vast azure sky, one can't help, but feel small;
as crowds of ants run in terror of cathedral-sized Converse.
I left sugar cubes next to their hill, feeling purposefully big.

Premium Member Gaining My Wings - 1

Fear gripped my soul
When I contemplated 
Doing that new thing…
… and I asked God
“What if I fail?”
He answered softly,
“Dear child, what if…
You gain your wings?”

And I remembered why
He is the God I turn to
For insight and inspiration
Assurance and encouragement
Light, love and laughter

Everything that is good
Comes to me from Him
Who grants me grace and mercy
With a love that keeps me filled
With praise and worship
For Him who makes my life 
Worth everything that comes

God sought me, bought me
And taught me… 
In the end, He is my best friend

Premium Member gaining weight wonder why

feed me butter
give me pie
gaining weight?
I wonder why

Siting in a recliner
for one hour, now two
kicking off my instincts
Maybe three will do

Sitting sedentary
barely moving at all
bring me chocolate cake
and don’t make the piece that small!

Gaining weight my pretty?
Gee I wonder why.
I want another piece of rhubarb.
Don’t be so chintzy with that pie!

Premium Member Gaining/Loss

Each day I'm growing shorter
And I was not ever tall.
Perhaps instead of dying
I'll just shrink to none at all.

Is that an oxymoron?
How can anyone grow short?
But that's what he said I'm doing
On my last doctor's report.

So if you find me missing,
I'm not anywhere about,
Don't think I have deleted,
I've just shorted myself out.

Not Complaining About the Sunshine We'Re Gaining

The beautiful Spring is here with barely time left remaining, 
but mother nature has decided Spring is only good for raining.
The Summer is arriving and you won’t see me complaining,
this year I planted lilies and peonies I’ll be maintaining.
From my wonderful mother chartreuse hostas I’ll be obtaining
from the lovely garden in her yard; her nurture I’m gaining. 
I shall nourish fresh veggies and continue great sustaining.
We’ve decided this year the old picnic table we’re staining,
and with our level and sand paper we will be surface paning
so that we may have family and friends over for entertaining.
In my Church I will be doing some Summer vocational training
to help the homeless and needy who are weak and waning.
Yes, it sounds like my Summer will be tiresome and draining…
but like I said before you won’t ever see me complaining.

Gaining Strength

You saved me from him,
Convinced me I had value,
Told me I was beautiful.
Now you are no better, 
Malicious and cold.
You weaken me for power.
You hunger for control.

But I do have value
And I am beautiful. 
You have no power over me,
You will not control me.
You are the only one
Who has something to lose.

Premium Member The Cow Is Gaining On You

The cow is gaining on you! My aunt Martha said.
As a dolphin, I was embarrassed. My face got all red.
Bovine is winning! My grandma yelled a warning.
I pushed myself forward with dolphin super zing.

The cow is still coming! My daddy screamed out his face.
Ridiculous this heifer was even a contestant in a dolphin race!
I pushed myself forward the best that I could, hoping the cow….
Would land in water and go plunging down to the bottom somehow.

This cow was super powered, and seemed to be able to fly.
Come on! Yelled my grandma! Give it your best effort SLY!
By this time I had usually won every one of this events races.
I had to do better and I knew it by looking at my family’s faces!

Trip her! Kick her! Get her down! My grandpa Dolphin shrieked.
I knew this was bad sportsmanship, so I ignored him as he squeaked.
The cow began to gloat then, and it made me mad and mean.
I put my flipper out and I heard that heifer scream.

She plunged down in the water with a mighty splash.
That’s the way to do it! Yelled my uncle Sweet Succotash!
My family was cheering all over the place.
I had won the trophy, the loving cup and the race!

Gaining Steps

Learning,
Where a subject,
Defines itself,
To understand,
The concept of existence.

Growth,
Always having a problem,
Knowledge analyses it, 
Where a system,
Seeks a solution.

Technique,
Sensitivity of a Job,
Experience gains strength,
Skill counts capabilities,
Where maturity did it.

Benefit,
A priority of achievements,
Encouragement for satisfaction,
To accelerate the positiveness,
Or a nature of smoothness.

Demand,
Manner of qualities,
Needs confirmed It,
Maintenance approved,
Flexibilities and stability,

Supply,
A chain of growth,
A passage of gain,
Confirmation of benefits,
Or a surety of a Job.

Life's Result Comes From Gaining

Life’s result comes from gaining
                                   rests childhood to old age training
                         firstly seeds of thoughts automatically get planted
                               in the field of mind by seeing and hearing 		
                               gradual practice builds up inner mind tree 
               speaks about all the fruits of ideology philosophy right and wrong 
                        to perfectness either of construction or of destruction

Gaining Composer

I'll hold you close
I won't let go
You know the pain I feel inside
I found myself in a world changing
As I was choking on
And destroying my morals

Don't fall away from me tonight
Please girl, I need you here
You're the only one
Who understands

Stepping down
From fighting my fear
I'll walk away and leave it here
It's been so long since I've been strong
I'm not dying here
Not today, I'm not the same

Don't fall away from me tonight
Please girl, I need you here
You're the only one
Who understands my changing
And most of all I've known
But it's not the same this time
I just can't see myself that way
I'll make it easier for both of us

No more fear in sight
I left that here tonight

Losing Myself Gaining God

I give myself away.

Use me God. I trust,

You fully. I know You,

Love me. You made,

Me for a purpose.

I never thought that,

I was worth it that,

You sent your only

Son Jesus to hang,

Bleed and die on the

Earth's surface.

So that I could be,

Part of the good gang.

For a long time, I was

Loyal to the bad gang.

You really came into,

My life and I changed,

I'm still in the process,

Of changing- I'm ,

Losing myself and,

Gaining God. I'm losing,

Me and living,

In my destiny.

It's not easy. People

Expect me to be me,

And say that I'm crazy,

For being what You,

Made me to be.

It can be done,

And the only way,

That it will is that,

Self is killed and I,

Do Your will.

You can lose yourself too.

Here's what you do.

Say God I accept You,

And believe that You,

Sent your only seed,

To die for me on Calvary,

And rose from the dead,

So that I can have life,

And live more abundantly.

That is the first step,

In losing yourself and,

Gaining God.
