Did Lucifer, who became Satan, want to usurp God or become equal to Him Q and A and commentary

Q  Did Lucifer, who became Satan, want to usurp God or become equal to Him?

A  Lucifer, knew that he could not take God's place, which is why he stated, "I will
     be like the most High."

Q  So, did Lucifer want the heavenly hosts to worship him, along with

the spell of a pregnant pause

time passes, hands clasped,
afraid of what might happen,
clench tight on what's been.

eyes stare unblinking,
lest the sheer weight of mere thought,
reveals happenstance.

ears distracted dwell
on mantra seance murmurs
when will never end?

Delay

No more delaying, act now stop stalling,
Time doesn’t call timeout; the clock never rest.
Think, process, move then act.
There’s no weapon I can’t overcome with you.

You’re putting me in position,
To make a move and now it’s my turn. 
Step out in faith and hold onto the promise,
No matter the level of discomfort I feel or face.

You

EMBER ENDING

Welcome to another phase
A new dawn, another era 
It's festive season, love the reason
A new month, without deceased 
Radiating liveliness not decay
December without denials or delay we pray.

The last month of the year 2024
But not the last month for us
The month of impeccable discernment 
Birthing awareness for actions
Igniting our passion for glory 
Leading us to

a modern girls delay

(a disastrous morning Sonnet)

I am the very model of a girl who’s late for morning meal,
my charger failed, the printer jammed, the morning’s start has been surreal
I lost a scrunchy and a shoe, I had to use some dry shampoo
my Keurig had no k-cups too, so I’m feeling like a total shrew!

Our pre-dawn jog went

April 8 Delay

April 8—Delay (any kind)

There is always a two to three-month delay
Between economic news 
And people’s perception of the economy.

Most people feel the economy sucks
When in objective fact 
The economy is doing just great.

I hope that 
Biden will finally get credit 
For the economy
In time for the election.

If he does, he wins,
If Americans falsely believe
the economy

Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand Mathew 3:2 part three

"Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at  hand," John the Baptist 
Mathew 3:2.

As soon as Jesus was baptized [by John the Baptist], he went up
out of the water.  At that moment heaven was opened, and saw the
Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him.  And a
voice from heaven

Stupor

Life has a meaning if you wake up from stupor

Procrastination will not help you achieve goal

days pass, years waste away, making you a loser

wake up before time takes a worst turn, death bells toll


When there was nothing there was God who created

A beautiful and pristine world for man to live

Be a vicegerent and protect the

Helpless Hopeful Hanker

I just want to bless
All that's around me with no stress
Even those within me, with love and ease
For peace and prosperity I have made decrees

A life is pretty stale, somewhat sad, so static
Striving seems to mock it, and 'bout it, ecstatic
He's at the drop of a hat set to borne goodness
Where's the power to do,

Waiting

The time ticks by
As I stare at the clock 
Knowing my near future. 
Just sitting
Waiting. 
No news, no change. 
Storms rage, 
Confusion, resignation, consternation . 
The time seems slower somehow. 
Like the whole world still turns but us. 
Decisions. Coffee? No coffee? 
Who can predict? 
People bustle, not knowing, dazed. 
Children scream with over tired,
Hot

Delay Not

Find out where your reasons lay
For every preferred delay
And keep in mind that men pay
For the legs they dragged all day
To “Be fast!” “Out of my way!”
Smokers stuck to their ash tray
While loved ones like donkeys bray.

As we delay lots at bay,
Precious time we boldly slay,
Little answer when we pray,
Wasted April leaves for May
And later

A Friend Halts Discovered Faults

From people you've been rather far,
Your Entrance Door scarcely ajar:
Guests appear and up dries your jar!
You don't wish to guess what these bar...

Your next caller could be a star:
I should have said A Super Star!
And roads you block against your car
While the journey has not gone far...

Also, you treat with odd delay
Things on which one's

I Do Need Your Blessings

While I'm waiting
You always come with delay
While I'm overwhelmed with work
You always pass by hastefully
While I'm suffering
You always linger around
While I'm enjoying
You always slip away quietly
I can't do anything to stop you
And so, time, I do need your blessings
Just like without any blessings from the Almighty
Man's life will become a mess

In Death's Delay

(For Linda Woods, Sept. 26, 1952 - Feb. 27, 2023)

she wastes away with Alzheimer's . . .
I wait to know when to travel home

Written Feb. 27 for Tania Kitchin's A New Crystalline - Any Theme Poetry Contest

Written right before my sister Linda passed away.
We all knew the time was very near, and I'll be flying

Dont Join the Delay Train

You all should know my aim:
To hit the lasting fame.
I wasn’t made a lame, 
Not, at present, Old Dame,
And great prizes could claim…

Men who to Peaks lay claim
Forget not strength would wane:
The once fleshy turns “Cane”
Exciting bubbles ‘Pain’,
Much labour “Little Gain”
The Sane “A bit insane”:
Soon, Towing Van with Crane…
