As an underdog given a short leash on life
As an underdog given a short leash on life alternately titled give one targeted scapegoat a break, an unquenchable thirst for moolah before I wake from nightmare of computer hackers. I tread upon the oblate spheroid along the edge of night glistening like a blade runner wielding a knife. Dark shadows hoover from the outer limits of the twilight zone illuminating one bisel...

God Has Given You The Best In Life
Your actions will show your real attitude. If you catch a bird, do not keep it in a cage. Make it so that she could fly if she want to, It's important to live that somebody loves you. He always understand, forgive and simply won't judge. Don't have to pretend, neither be sad and smile again. He is hurry to warm...

I Have Given All I Have, Gentle Light Of The Darkest Night
I have given all I have— The hush of dawn, the summer’s breath, The songs I sang when skies were grave, The strength that stilled another’s death. Gentle light, the darkest night— Shine not for me, but for the lost, Who walk in chains, who dwell in blight, Who know not yet the final cost. I stood amid the thorn and flame, And wore...

The world looks different through everybody's eyes If you don't conform expectations you must wear a disguise But what if we removed our armor to reveal who we truly are Could people find beauty in what we thought were scars? Opening our minds and hearts can create more space To hold other's lived experience with a warm embrace So while we'll...

Connecting the dots part four Q and A
Q: Are the Christians being executed in Asia a prelude to the Noahide laws of the Orthodox Jews. Basically claiming that anyone who worships any deity but God the Father, is guilty of blasphemy and can be beheaded? A: According to Up Time,...

God Given Name
I remember that special service like it was yesterday, The table at the alter set up with candles like it was my wedding day, I had my vows in my pocket ready to give, Not even knowing what was in store with Him, I had wrote down every promise, and all He meant to me, I was ready to surrender...

It's never a given, what you've got; it's all assigned or taken away by lot: whatever joy, whatever pain ~ whatever loss, whatever gain ~ whether you deserve it ~ or not....

Premium Member The God Given Universe
Life lives in God's universe of highs, lows, a daily storm through turmoil tough and strong. Where spirits born are strengthened by sharp throes in instances where right is seen as wrong. As trouble’s face of doubt appears, faith grows, and fills awaiting hearts with victor’s song. We dance along to wondrous ups and downs, with thanks for smiles and also “yes”...

If we weren’t meant to give to one another… If you don’t think that was in our Creators plans… then why in Heaven’s name do you suppose We were ever given hands. ...

Premium Member The Greatest Gift Ever Given
This quiet night the earth was still. A Virgin birth would be fulfilled. A real bright star would lead their way, to a manger, so far away. The Magi's gifts were for a King. Frankincense , Myrrh, and Gold, to bring. Mary's miracle comes to life, as Joseph watched with great surprise. This precious scene, God-Child arrives. As the Magi's hear, the baby's cries. Simeon...

Premium Member God has given me many talents
I am a cartoonist; have been drawing them since I could hold a crayon. I will dabble them on paper, cardboard, metal, wood, and rayon. But I did not know until I was over sixty that I am also a painting fool. I did not learn anything about either from a mentor or any school. In ten years I...

My grandson asked me: “What blessing would you seek this morning?” I was washing the dishes of the previous night without any wishes. I sought, therefore, to continue as I was. “Wash the dishes?” he laughed,  asked me to bend, placed his hand on my head and solemnly said, “So be it”. What else could a man nearing eighty want, in his frail diabetic frame, still able to move...
