Wondrously enchanting
clouds have pulled my sight above…
Greeting me with “Behold our beauty”
clouds constantly check my appreciation-appraisal
engaging me to thank the Supreme Being beyond the sky…
Captivating me since childhood days
clouds present images worth pondering
kindling my desire to know their magnificent Designer
verily artistic Who keeps on showcasing varied shapes daily.
With science exposing their essence
clouds welcome me to the enigmatic loftiness
they are placed, enthralling me toward their Creator
wisely omniscient to display them for functional learning
and compassionately reaching-down to offer His redeeming grace.
In their stature midst the firmament
clouds invite me to explore the celestial
pulling my soul to fly with freedom wings
against skepticism, and unbelief hindering
cheering my spirit to soar for heavenly pursuits
divinely propelled by the Saviour Whom I dearly trust.
Inspiring my grateful heart
clouds radiate hope and praise
along biblical “clouds of witnesses”
blissfully upholding me against trial
strengthening my will to win patiently
the race set before me, while looking unto
Jesus Christ, the Author and Finisher of my faith*.
*Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Unbroken our connection
Limitless, You are all wise
I’m under Your protection

Bottomless love, my heart sings
As I lift my hands in pray’r.

*gramercy - grand thanks
For Constance La France's "Writing Prompt - Endless" contest
In facing various challenges along life’s race*
With every struggle marked by sin-caused misery
My faith seeks God to strengthen my salvation-zeal
So I can stand upon His grace that’s triumphant.
While battling against numerous adversaries
Along worldliness of materialism-enticement
My spirit needs the Lord’s sanctification-purge
So I can flee from temptation’s perilous darts.
Conquering various facets of difficulties
And sorrowing due to atrocities’ despair
My heart hides in the Saviour’s protective fortress
So I can overcome for service victory.
Pursuing good success to exalt Christ’s great name
Through faithful stewardship midst discipleship-bliss
My commitment is blessed by His empowerment
So I can live for Him with the Holy Ghost’s might.
*Hebrews 12:1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

Having commenced in God's salvation grace
I continue* in His sanctification grace
...calling unto Him through His supplication grace
...cleaving to His satisfaction grace
...clinging along His sufficing grace
...communing with Him by His strengthening grace
...choosing to stay inside His settling grace...
Being crucified to Him with His sealing grace
I'm clothed by His steadfast grace.
As His chosen according to His Scriptures' so great grace
I'm circumspectly striving to live for Him upon His straightening grace
...comforted, compassed around His spirited grace
...cared, cheered for toward His serving grace
...commended upon His saluting grace!
*Acts 13:43 Many...followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

In my mind I was on the six hundred-sixty six-floor;
In Hades
Things weren't well
I need help Satan's elevator got me
so elevated, escalated, heightened, high, increased, all jacked up, raised
I keep pushing the seventh button but the door keeps shut it doesn't open
This moving box extreme, full, hot I'm maximized, peaked, sky-high, utmost lost
Trapped in this electric box that keeps moving at the speed of light
I'm falling, falling scared so hearts pounding I am crying
Sweating think I'm dying vertigo spinning
Doors not opening Satan's still laughing
I'm trapped in a here open up the door
Finally Completed I concluded done ended, finished,
The elevator button has loosened it's unlit seven has lighted up
I've accomplished, achieved, attained, compassed, realized
My freedom the door now opens guess what I'm in heaven
Dead in this elevator defunct, extinct, kaput I'm absolutely expired
As I open my eyes and wipe the sweat off my brow
”DING”
I realize I'm on the seventh floor door opens I'm in heaven

With factories and private jets, the elite
produces 100, 000 times more carbon
than you or I. (It has gone up to .04 from .03 ppm.
Yet, we are the ones lectured in scare, tactic.
Tell me something. Do you see the Davosites
eating bugs and car-pooling?
Do you see them eating filet mignon and travelling
in a style harmful to the Planet?
Extravagance is not conservation.
It is the opposite.
They are enslaving you with pretty notions
and hypocrisy.
"Israel will be compassed about with armies"
...Iran, Turkey, Sudan, Russia, Lebanon, Syria...
Psalms 83, Ezekial 38.
"Wonder what is on tv tonight?"

to see if it was prophesied)C
(I know it's not as riveting as a cookoff or American Idols.)
One third of the population will perish from their coming war and deeds. That is 2.6 BILLION WITH A "B"
AL...
We are not accidental like a spill,
incidentals, we are Elementals
of love, with a will and lifeblood.
We are deliberate, destined, designed by a loving designer.
A dance of atoms and stardust in a solar system made for us, constellate signs, seasons- reminders.
Did you know the exact calculations of the Sun,
the Moon, the Poetry is Prospectus.
Exactly close enough and distant to not wreck us.
You are a soul with Principality and Place.
Do you feel like nothing?
Do you feel like an accident?
Have you ever laughed at a Cat with cobwebs on it's face?
We are fashioned in duplicate,
except for the connectors.
Let me ask you, do you think that we could be created from accident without external brain knowing what to form into?
Strands by stranded ungland non hand?
No, we are of exact coding
without one blemish or we would perish.
Then, to do it again for every cell built upon in nucleotide compassed abide, for the other sex done again by haphazard spin?
Accidental miracle magic
in exactly the same way except for the convenient knowledge of womb, baby bin,
attraction, impeccable educated guessing allowance in reproduction.
How did we survive the chaos in order
to build on and on?
What created the raw material to spawn?
Why do we wonder, have curiousity
and the blues?
Why is joy a thing?
Why do kids show off a new pair of shoes?
The alternative to creation is infinitely more implausible.
Creation is causable, romantic and electric, pausible, genuflectic.
Besides, the Bible has Prophecy, and all is coming true.
You will see.
Like a blanket God so covers me
In my head my ears bleed
And yet I can see my weaknesses revealed
Some evil ones try to constrict me
Fowl evil spirits try to convict me
Yet still the still small voice that I hear
In the new day causes me to speak up speak life
And ignore the prey
They they're not over me
I am over them
They speak death they're not a friend
I speak life with every word I say
The foolish shall not stand in my sight
All haters all workers of iniquity stop become a victim to their plight
But as for me I will come into the house in the multitude of my merciful Father
Throwing myself down at the altar
I sing out this new Day prayer for protection
I'm pleading to my father to give me righteous direction
Lead Me oh Lord and the righteousness
Because of my enemies make thy way straight
Before my face destroy by them oh God
Let them fall by their own counsels
Cast them out the multitude of their transgressions
For they have rebelled against thee
For my Lord will bless the righteous
With favor without compassed
He is a shield for you for me God is my new day protection

Aware of Captain America's fame
I commend its creator for great aim
Exposing virtues, surpassing grand name
Such as having good character to claim.
Worthy of emulation, though fiction
Captain America’s strong conviction
On what is proper against wrong action
Prevails toward righteousness-propped function.
Along effective leadership terrain
Captain America persists midst pain
Influencing with integrity’s gain
For positive transformation to reign.
Midst endowed heroic tenacity
Captain America’s humanity
Maximized granted opportunity
To fulfill well every task and duty.
With these lessons learned via virtual ways
I praise God, my Creator of truth-brace
Christ, my Captain --- enabling service-grace
Triumphing over pride along faith’s race.*
*Hebrews 12:1-2 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…

My heart is a garden, a glorious secret garden,
My Love has the sole key to enter into it,
He knows what I like and don't like ~
Whether it's roses or rhodenderons,
He knows when I'm angry or not ~
Whether it's cactus or chrysanthemums,
He knows how to make me happy ~
Whether it's hydrangeas or hibiscus,
He knows when I'm upset or upbeat ~
Whether it's weeping willow or wisteria,
He knows where to take me for a treat ~
Whether it's Spring or Summer,
He knows me inside out ~
Whether it's lilies or lavender,
He knows the secret code to my soul ~
Whether it's compassed or canopied,
Who knows about my Love?
He is my partner for life,
My beloved better half,
My garden's proper custodian,
In his hands, my heart is out of harm's way,
And I can rest secure.
