Best Obtain Poems
Obtain When You Refrain
A much better appearance will obtain,
Saying things full of nonsense refrain;
Your noise deaden,
And peace heading,
Or do need Novocain to deaden the pain.

November 23 Scripture Meditations Based on 1Thessalonians 4-5
Key Verse – 1Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR APPOINTING ME TO OBTAIN SALVATION
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your grace
Surely forgiving me from my sin-caused carnal case
Of grievous transgression-trace…
Now, I’m Your beloved child for heavenly pace.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your compassion
Surely rescuing me from my helpless situation
Of hell-bound sentence-condition…
Now, I’m Your redeemed heir for holy perfection.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your mercy
Surely propelling me from my hopeless persistency
Of foolish skepticism-policy…
Now, I’m Your sanctified saint for prayer-upheld fervency.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your goodness
Surely cleansing me from my proud self-righteousness
Of arrogant achievement-haughtiness…
Now, I’m Your called servant for blessed faithfulness.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your workmanship
Surely disciplining me from my rebellious followership
Of hypocritical ministry-partnership…
Now, I’m Your enriched steward for grateful worship.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your plan
Surely driving me from my perilous “I can”
Of personal ability-span…
Now, I’m Your secured believer for biblical scan.
Thank You for appointing me to obtain salvation by Your sovereignty
Surely pulling me from my worthless humanity
Of miserable worldliness-vanity…
Now, I’m Your faith-propped follower for fruitful spirituality.

We must strive work
Side by side together
As one people, tribe
In harmony n peace
Indivisible under god

Happiness
it's a noble gas
intended
rare but it's not...
It's a feather there
extremely light that gives
a thousand turns, but
it always fell in
right place...
We just must
be ready
to catch
this feather and
breathe this
gas...!

EVEN swaying mountains are smoother hungry clouds
And your ticklish roseate lips like match-lit dewdrops
are not a memory but realized onward and carried
within an old man’s satchel; depressed lines as thick
as unfeeling skin; a path to have traveled until the ending
unlike the empty nest that’s screaming.

When rollerblading I threw out my back.
A sidewalk bump sent me off the track.
On the way home I had felt out of whack.
Did extra stretches to create motion slack.
But the lumbar pain would come and go.
My posture suddenly elderly, a pain show.
When walking I’ll hobble around all decrepit.
My legs uncooperative and are full of quit.
Pain shifted from lower back to the right hip.
Triggered by a sidewalk crack and near trip.
To get around I grab walls and solid furniture.
At this point the best way to treat I am unsure.
Can hardly dress myself or grasp stuff nearby.
Pain reaches points I think I’m ready to die.
People squirm seeing me in this weak state.
With an elite fitness regimen, it’s karmic fate.
Asking for my wife to get stuff out of reach.
When not overwhelmed, she can be a peach.
Such a contrasting dynamic from my before.
Winning fitness challenges by shocking score.
High volumes of pushups, burpees & squats.
Frequent strengthening and stretching shots.
But I learned one misstep can derail the train.
Workouts get suspended when in bad pain.
The worried looks on faces is a reversal.
When before I was awaiting a rehearsal.
For a professional pushup competition.
Now totally beyond my comprehension.
So I’ll patiently await the results of the tests.
Wondering if I’ll get back to setting my bests.
Willing to settle for the ability to just walk.
Surprised with all the agony I can still talk.
Took a needle to the joint to get some relief.
Hoping it helps my body going through grief.
Trying to inhale but keep holding my breath.
Suddenly understand why people chose death.
Constant pain totally changes life’s direction.
Only way to resolve is with medical inspection.
So I hope and pray it clears up pretty soon.
Because right now I’m as useful as a buffoon.

FOUR
To obtain it, Laurie with her Dear Life paid,
She did not count the cost, as cowards do,
But gave her Heart, to be re-forged and made,
A Diamond Heart… Pure, Innocent and True…
Into a misericorde, blade meant to end
With Mercy, Dark Ones… Those whose Time has come
Who have made Life a Misery, and bend
The courses of Reality – they hum
Not, nor do cook in their pajamas,
They are Diseased with Hate and Cruelty
Is just another tactic – do their mamas
Pray for them? That’s why she comes!
To nihilists, she brings the coup-de-grace*
And carries the repentant over the floss…
*the coup-de-grace was not only a merciful blow with a dagger, designed to swiftly and painlessly end the life of a suffering knight, who could not be saved, this name was also used for the dagger, itself, which was designed for such a purpose. Another name for the coup-de-grace is 'misericorde'

We must unite, unite
Voices need to be heard
Gaps need to be bridged
Wrongs need to be righted
Fences need to be mended
Differences must be talked about
From east to west, north to south
Many think peace is not obtainable
Today, tomorrow
But through faith in god
And is divine plan
We can do anything
Like the lyrics go
"Give peace a chance"

Obtain and Gain Grain
When you want to grow and obtain,
Wheat and will be able to sustain,
Care for field,
For good yield;
Often nice to have occasional rain.

World as we know
Soon we shall depart
As many Souls go
Loved ones... we know
Whom Still remain in our hearts
Time is Now...
For everyone to make up their minds
Where are you going to be living
When it comes to the End Times
As of right now...
We live in Grace Period
Each moment.. Each second...
passes... goes by...
Our Chance in Time is now...
For us all to make a choice
To choose... Live for Christ...
Obtain Eternal Life
Our Souls... Born-again...
to Live Forever...
Or loose... our Eternal Souls
Forever in time...
Which do you choose???
For God so Loved the World
Jesus came died on the cross
Paid the cost... for us all to be Saved
Just by Believing and asking Jesus
to come into our hearts
Asking for forgiveness of our sins
Believing God raised Jesus from the dead
We are given this Great Opportunity
to become Eternally Born-again
Time when Jesus comes
We can Live Forever with Christ
Come to Jesus---obtain Eternal Life
Live forever with Our Savior
Jesus Christ

many teachers
many masters
in my every step of life
from them
the Guru
I don't know who is true
yet I love
I love them all
institutional, eating, drinking
walking, running, watching
playing, doing something in the job place
praying…..
everywhere I feel
the teachers, the masters, the gurus
existence
but, sometimes I enter into
the sovereign reign of my heart
I look up the mind
I confined my-self
and there I obtain the lesson
"If any lesson or teaching instigates to hate or hurt others
then this lesson is unsafe as well as brainwashing and this master/teacher/guru is preventable
and
If any lesson or teaching encourages me to love and help others
then this lesson is useful and this is a true master/teacher/guru"

Life here as we know
Tis… time we all shall go
Life here is but a moment to be
Then where will we live???
In eternity…
As of Now…
We All are giving a choice
With our voice
To confess… in our hearts
Jesus is Lord…
Asking Jesus to come
Live within our hearts
Asking Jesus for forgiveness
Of our sins
Knowing Jesus died and risen
Now is time..
We can become Eternally born-again
Jesus did this to save our Souls
Giving us through Grace…
the ability for All to be redeemed
and made whole
for Jesus knows
time here in this life
for us is short…
time ends… we go…
Through Jesus Christ
We can Now obtain
Eternal life
We shall have a place to live
As life is here
just a midst.. in time
Come to Jesus
Obtain your eternal place
Giving by God’s Divine Grace…
