Recently this watch woman, noticed on a couple of Christian pod casts and CBN,
Jews are putting up road signs in three different languages, Hebrew, Arabic and
English.  Tom, of the Watchman River channel compared it to,"the signs that they
use to show us the way to state parks but they have no official status yet."

Jerusalem On The Rocks

Jerusalem On The Rocks 
One day, when all of the nations are against me 
World powers on the earth are full of rage 
They gather around Jerusalem in war 
I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock, into tomorrow. 
All those who try to destroy her, will fail 
Have a watchful eye over Judah from above

Premium MemberUpwards Towards Jerusalem

 Through the stillness, I find my way home
 where the Sacred resides and the Still Waters Flow,
 and the Great Ohm Resonates in the Higher Plane
 and the Great Mystery is Unveiled, ZIN URU, The Great Breaker Of Chains
 only from within can peace be found
 within the Inner Seas an Emerald Crown
 But,

Jerusalem 1969

Resting on a bench
outside the old city wall
I heard a tapping.
A blind man was approaching.
As he felt his way
he would tap my legs,
so I said hello. 
He sat beside me
and asked who I was.
I spoke no Hebrew,
Shlomo hardly any English.
He tried German and Spanish.
A little French we had in common.
Lonely I guess,
he asked me 
back

Ladies in Jerusalem

Ladies in Jerusalem 

I looked up the Wikipedia to see if a man I had known
for thirty years, but never met was there
Does not exist, was the answer
I wrote my name also; it appeared I didn't exist either
I did once when thinking it was important
but some ladies in Jerusalem had deleted me.
The ladies of Jerusalem are

Love for His City

Why does my soul love this city so dearly?
What causes the depth of my passion for her?
Are not other cities more pleasant or lovely?
Are not other places more safe or secure?

Yehovah adorns her, and He is her glory
He swore that His eyes and His heart there remain
He shared with me part of His love for

 Through the Golden Gate we march, We Sons Of Thunder
 to Rise and See Lifes Illusions Crumble,
 Sacred Swords and Spears we Wield into the Valleys Of Jerusalem
 Cross in hand, Halos and Solar Diadems
 We cross the Threshold , Trodding in Grace
 and Ride Upwards towards the Seventh Gate,

Can of Worms

Tom tom drums call men unto war

The Euphrates dries in preparation

Of a Third world war as Gog and Magog

Start a Cataclysmic war that unchecked

Will lead to an outright world war

Russia is on the offensive in arms against

A colleague of the Russian federation

By name Ukraine is daily bombarded 

Carpet bombing NATO names it

As they western powers

Feeling so blessed away from
thee abuse being battered taunted 
today I sit with my two red poodles 
brando and ruby they love me 
unconditionally making sure I am 
hugged affectionately constantly 
sinfully indulging in my favorite chocolate 
Toblerone bites sipping a warm 
Glogg finally feeling safe watching

New Jerusalem



                 Fairy Princess dreamer alone 
             in the ring of stones

At the end of the Rainbow

Do not let it be the end of faith

Your God Reigns

How lovely on the mountains are
The feet of him who brings good news
Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
Great joy and peace shall He diffuse

O You who bring good tidings, rise!
To Zion say, “Your King is near!”
Arise, proclaim to Judah’s towns
“Behold your God!” and have no fear

Prepare the way of Yehovah
Make straight a highway for

Praise Unto You

Based on Psalm 65

In Zion is stillness, and praise unto You
And we shall fulfill what we promised to do
All flesh shall ascend to appear at Your throne
Our prayers You hear; for our sins You atone

Oh, blessed is the one whom You choose and You call
That He might approach You, O Master of all
That he in

Jerusalem

In love and in war all is fair
This is no consolation but a scare
Ye gloat but it is loss and death that ye dare
And it is at requiem masses ye remember prayer 

Ye clamor to justify a side’s cause
As if the bloodshed is worth applause 
And for counting the cost you take no pause
As if
