In this fallen world what more can I say
Get in where you fit in, Im 
speaking to the 
true Christians cast your rod on the other side
Of the lake you're fishing in. The world is 
looking for a reason to change their ways 
Don't teach em the prosperity gospel
Teach em, tell em how when the really
Start living for the Christ how situations become more 
hostile, tell em they will suffer just like the Apostle...Paul, 
walk in your calling its not that they don't believe in Jesus. 
Its just living by faith in this world where nothing is 
promised they cant seem to do. So if we're the only 
reflection that Christ is risen, lets put to death the flesh 
and sin if he really died for the remission and called every 
soul saint or sinner to repentance- J.U.D.A.H

The greatest discovery known to man is finding his 
missing rib, the link to what he was missing and once 
they're reunited its a weight lifted off their shoulders 
listen...this world is sickening to a certain degree so the 
connection this man and that woman has is exactly how 
freedom should be,
its everything this world thinks that love can't be, doing 
the unthinkable
yeah between you & me. Insight can be
a beautiful thing with the right vision
its no longer about other ppls opinions
but your executive decision. Cast ya net
into the lake and once you're done fishing and found 
what you been lookin
for, you see it was well worth the wait,
you finally can see the sunshine after the storm, so this 
right here is...love reborn

Meant To Live

We were all meant to live
We have but only one life to give
The time is here
The chance is now
Hoping that these words
Get through to you somehow
No longer can we be
A world that is divided by hate
A world so cold
The lessons have been learned
The stories have been told
So wipe away the tears
Mistakes of all the past years
Know that
You have so much love to give
Know that
We were all meant to live

The End

Heavens Breaking Us Down

Imagine a dream to real to see.
A mind cast victim to the world that be.
Memories breaking, from the sky they leap.
Content with blindness through the world they seek.

Oh heavenly thought, you break us down,
giving us space of which we willfully drowned.
A fate of fact, a fact of fate, a fate that fades,
until all we have is the heavens that remain.

A Written Word

Do not be afraid or terrified 
For the Lord your God is with you.
He will never leave you nor forsake you.
Even when you face horrors,
Troubles bigger than mountains, 
Even then be strong,
Do not be discouraged,
For what good will that do the Lord.
He who created the earth and the universe
Can build a whole new world for you
Take hold of His Word.
And His love that is eternal
For the Lord delights in His children.
Those who love the LORD.
Shall see goodness in His life.
They shall be blessed
And with their very own lips
They shall say:-
"Praise the Lord my God
Who has spoken light into my life
and separated me from the darkness.
He has made a whole new world for me."


Broken Promises

I'm grieving...in dis crazy world lies death & deceit
its discreet so I'm not amazed who isn't aware of these truths.
nowadays we can't tell who's being honest, some call it broken promises
...why their heart turned cold and they developed trust issues
when someone didnt make good on their word, perfection...
is so unheard of but that's almost what we expect.
so what happens when someone slips up, it feels like bullets
rippin threw ligaments & tissue its a dead issue
trying to make good on everything you say, yeah dat is kinda cliche.
At the beginning it is sweet, courtship and thoughts
of that man or woman that will sweep us off our feet
but no one & nothin prepares us for the half truths & dishonesty...
nothin is promised nowadays so people trust their instincts
and go off on past experiences learning from the decisions they make
I use to despise those who let this world get the best of them but I sympathize yeah I can
relate,
so threw it all that is unknown difference is I chose to walk by faith.

No Need To Bother

Some times I feel as if I am alone in this world of pain
Even on a sunny day, my eyes see clouds of rain
Why does it always seem as if this world in one big conspiracy
Its like every where I turn, everyone is against me

I'm  slowly deteriorating from the ache of loved ones' foot steps

Making me feel like I am forever encased in this great wall of depth
However, my hand is always reaching out

Awaiting the grasp of this reality that will soon be the cause of my doubt
Some days I feel that I have given Him all that I have to offer

But its as if I'm a waste and threes no need to bother
I only want the happiness that my eyes used to reflect
Even if the image wasn't always so perfect
Now I can only pray that he will have mercy on my daughter
Hold her near and never let go of her

Premium Member The Mustard Seed / Matthew 17:20

Perhaps, the world would be a better place for you and me
if I helped you, then you helped me, and profit not decreed.

If you were sick I’d care for you the golden rule the creed.
We’d plant gardens, grow our food, all share when there was need.

Mothers, Fathers, daughters, sons, their joys would then exceed
the need for filthy lucre the false fostering of greed.

There was a time when this was so and profit flowed from deed
and kindness was credit given with fulfillment, love freed.

The world has grown too big it seems, now all we do is bleed.
We bleed the goodness from ourselves by actions and misdeed.

Return, I say to times of yore and to your family speed
for there is no value in false abundance….just see the mustard seed.

My Father

Today, on Fathers Day, I honor my Father.
All of my life, he has been right by my side.
At times, I pretended that he didn't exist.
I continued on with my life, harboring pride.

When I was a child, sometimes I would cry.
Others thought that it was fun to mock.
As a fatherless child, I was singled out.
No one understood that He was my rock.

Sometimes the world was cold and cruel.
I spent a lot of time trying to run away.
Those were the times, I was closest to Him
because, I would fall on my knees and pray.

I couldn't understand why I was searching.
What I was seeking, I could never find
The whole world was my playground,
until I learned I had to leave it behind.

What I needed had always been there,
my Heavenly Father, I bask in his glow
He showers me with blessings everyday.
He loves me and keeps me, now I know.

Premium Member Take the Time

We can show our love  to the world for the world needs love

We can live with kindness and love, the way Jesus did

We can be the tower of strength for someone weaker

Sharing ourselves , giving  selflessly,  the greatest gift

that we can share with our fellow man

Treasures need not be silver or gold

Or an abundance of wealth to hold

Treasures can be the precious moment 

And special memories of the past

It is in helping a friend in need

Or giving a hug when things are tough

In knowing when to be there and when not

It is taking the time instead of being blind

To the need that stands at your door

Good Friday

Good, better, best
in that order i guess
but what made this day good?
just the death of a man that could
make the rest of the world in peace
the Romans the world and the deceased
they frowned on his actions 
now we worship his fraction
but the battles still wage
on this Friday- today

for today is good Friday

Dear Lord, I know you'd never give to me
More grief than I tolerate, that's true.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt,
I could not bear the sorrow without you.

Just as I think the world too dark and drear
To hold the grief I feel, the sun comes out.
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt.

Once more the day is bright and clouds are gone.
I thank you for the lovely skies of blue.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt,
I could not bear the sorrow without you.

With you beside me Lord, the world has joy
And my whole being does a turn-about.
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt.

THE WORLD WE LIVE IN


The world we live in is topsy-turvy
We seek consolation in things of pleasure
The path we travel is often curvy
While we ignore Christ, who is our true treasure

We tend to wear the label of sin
But sin is something we can alter
And stop satan controlling our life from within
By taking a trip to the altar

Accepting Christ as our Savior
Making a difference so easy to tell
Changing our personal behavior
That saves us from eternity in hell

So take a look at the world we live in
Hell is a place to avoid
Turn from your wickedness and sin
And make Jesus Christ your Lord

My Kingdom Still Exsist

it was him who brought me through the trials and tribulations of the world and help me to 
see and believe that even tho im not always approved of by those of my world but i am 
loved by him no matter my mistakes or wrong doing he forgives and understands that my 
faith is doubted by many who feel you must live by certain standards to be seen as his child 
is his eyes.

White Ash Winter

I stood watching the snow falling down
On the white ash man.
He did not care for cold or frost.
He was lost.
Lost in a world of his own
Thinking, thinking of his home
He was lost in a world of his own.
He was still and did not move
From the gloom of the ash sky.
All winter he watched the snow
Falling, falling until his problems were gone.

The ash man went home.
