Fisher of Men

Beside a sea of sapphire blue
On sands of glimmering gold
I asked the prophet what He knew
Of what wonders I’d behold

He smiled softly, gave a sigh
And reached into the sea
Then placed a starfish in the sky
And said “Come follow me.”

Premium Member Kaali's Disciple

A demonness turned disciple of a goddess,
Born in a form to show my true prowess
As well as learning to embrace my darkness.
I too am evolving into a cosmic enchantress.

Premium Member Making Disciples Chanso



Love like this is once in a lifetime
More beautiful than the sweetest kiss
Whispering grace in nature’s soft rhyme

Love this strong is meant for hearts and souls
Sweetest kiss, gentle grace, His embrace
Raining over those His love controls

Love brought alive, kindness, stirring 
His embrace, light – eternal beauty
His wonders alive and recurring

Love that breathes music through dazzling songs
Eternal beauty, rhythms vibrating
Singing through the winds, where bliss belongs

Love abides inside those who believe
Rhythms vibrating, inspiring strong faith
Growing close to Him will not deceive

Strong faith comes to life inside disciples
Who sincerely trust in their bibles

Disciple At the Master's Feet

At the feet of the Master there sat a disciple,
Looking straight to the eyes, learning the truth what lies;
Oh! The word from the Master where none can give,
The wisdom that discern, with the truth to live;
A teacher is he that show the right path for you and me.

At the feet of his Master for more than an hour,
He think of himself as a treasure hunter;
For the knowledge he gain is beyond the price what he retained,
 The gold are worthless, for what he have is the best;
The understanding he acquire, is wonderful beyond his desire.

He extoled, “There’s no one to compare,
Beyond our understanding you are there;
For what we are capable, teacher you are able.
As a candle which shines its light, you shared us the deepest insight;
Who would have known your struggle, yet, you gave your time and always available,
Teacher you are incredible”.


Disciple

Disciple

       I close my eyes to pretend
       you are with me
       my hand reaches into the empty place
       where you have not been
       still I feel you are near
     
       I have not stopped looking for you
       this timefull trance suspends me
       in an unforgiving mess of lost intention
       instead of following
       I'm sitting on a wooden bench
       watching time dial around the unmoving center

       the woman behind the glass calls me
       she leads me along a yellow hallway
       little nameplates are blank beside the doors
       one opens    I enter
       two chairs    a small desk
       picture of a waterfall on the wall
       behind where I sit

       it's the second time I've been here
       and the second time I'll leave
       without knowing why I came
       or where I'll go to find you

Twenty Four Men In a Field

Tension builds in multiples 
Between two lords with their disciples: 
For knives wanting to rush at arteries,
Trouble starts changing their batteries!

Now, every cough is risky:
Experimentation with the frisky;
Every move of defiance, 
A murderous stab’s reliance;
The discordant notes of a forced sneeze 
And awkwardness of every heard wheeze.

Something of headache for cold-suffering Clement 
Already out of his element:
“How he should every sneeze contain
And a rearing cough detain…
And the final hateful explosion delay,
If he must still with his life pay?

Twenty-four men in a field 
Leaving blood-thirsty tension to build!

Premium Member Jesus Teaching: Becoming Jesus Disciple

If any one comes to me without hating his father and mother

     Wife and children

 		Brothers and sisters

Even his own life, he cannot be my disciple

Whoever does not carry his own cross 

          and 

come after me cannot be my disciple 

Which of you wishing to construct a tower does not first sit down 

            and 

calculate the cost to see if there is enough for its completion
 
            Otherwise

After laying the foundation 

              and 
Finding himself unable to finish the work the onlookers should laugh at him and say
This one began to build but did 

             Not have the resources to finish
 
What king marching into battle would not first sit down 

          Decide whether with ten thousand troops 

he can successfully oppose another king advancing upon him with twenty thousand troops

           But if not
     
          While he is still far away

He will send a delegation to ask for peace terms

           In the same way

Everyone of you who does not renounce all his possessions cannot be my disciple [LK 14:26-33]

Disciple Shadow

Though live ,no one cares to see.
 For I am the shadow to be . 
  Always around . 
   Never in sky, just on ground . 
    A light shade .
     Ready to vanish but never fade.
      The best to be is black . 
       Live in light ,die in dark .
        The ultimate disciple to follow . 
         Every where and gallow .
          For I am nothing with out you .
           Just black ,never red nor blue.

Premium Member Come Follow Me

Why are so many called 
yet very few are chosen?
Are they pundits on the terrace
who know best how to shoot,
who put the ball to back of net 
with mouth instead of boot?

Do many tire sore muscle
learning skill through weary days,
and good-fight life’s long hussle
for the right to make those plays?
“So come, come play for me.”
“I first must fetch another pint.
 
And I’m desperate for a wee.”

Is it wrong to think of Christ as ludicrous?
Did he laugh at jokes, and smile, 
and sing hearty songs 
and need to brush his teeth?
Was he not made like us, save for sin? 

It is after Easter,
and though I have nothing yet, 
he has caught and cooked some fish, 
and that without a net.
And I am laughing with him.

Premium Member Being a Jesus Disciple

when one comes to follow Jesus
He gives you a standard to keep
this is not to gain His eternal salvation
for it is a gift allotted for His elected sheep

Jesus sovereignly calls you to go His way
no matter what it will ultimately cost you
for Jesus paid the ultimate price so dear
so His followers must also have to do

The life of self must need to die
no place for it as Jesus made clear
Christ God's son must be your king
being everything as one so dear

God's will is to walk the Jesus path
being filled by His spirit full and free
having the mind of Christ to bear fruit
showing His gifts that all would see

Be humble, meek, godly and righteous
full of His joy, peace and grace
looking to eternity to meet your Lord
on that great day look into His lovely face

(I have been thinking on What does it mean to be a Jesus "Disciple"? this is my conclusion)

Senseless

Words of no profit,
Chitchat and debate
worth no participate!
Rather saving the lost,

Edifying the synagogue.
It’s the beast works
For men to mine;
Strifes among themselves,

Diverting the energies
And thinking of disciples
Thousand miles away,
Away from the way,

from what to be acted.
Never forget HE existed,
Existed before thickheaded tail.
The tail never wins at all!

Life, the race across the lake,
Philosophy of man starts
Invading the beliefs of the temple
With false teachings.

Dogmatic mentalities an’ hard cores
Result no spiritual growth.
Be diligent in study of HIS words;
The Truth!

Our Savior Dear

Christ is the water and bread of life,
Poured out and broken for us to take part.
Everything denotes His love,
His perfect sacrifice for us.

His soul He offered unto God,
His life He surrendered on the cross.
He is the Christ, our exaltation prize,
Kind Savior and Redeemer mild.

His healing balm knows no end.
His service to the broken to mend.
Once to humbly lay His life by,
Now He reigns in heaven on high.

To be partakers of His fruits,
We must bear in us His life,
To tree from roots.
Herein are the gospel tools.

Christ the Lord who reigns on high, 
Always let us be nearby Thy side.
We have come to earth to do our part.
Bestow now charity in our hearts.

With hearts and hands to serve Thine all,
We adhere our Savior dear, to Thy call.
Always to give and share in truth,
We love in Spirit, to make all things new.
