Join me bask in God's blessings along this thanksgiving* list:
Breath of life we must enjoy since---
air we inhale is granted freely
oxygen in the hospital is costly
gasping may be done leisurely.
Time to walk in the morning gives---
well-being movement zest
great exercise to the fullest
serves as work-out pleasure, oh best.
Refreshing breeze adds to our wellness---
midst divine meditation sublime
toward reinvigorating climb
while filled with rejuvenation-chime.
Freshness of the day warms us---
during fellowship with our soul Lover, the Almighty
there on the altar of devotional serenity
within sweet communion-security.
Wondrous relaxation soothes our hearts---
for rest against pressures so torturous
short breaks, evidently gracious
preparation toward another trek that's victorious.
Poem writing moments we welcome as---
creative prowess-enhancement
verily of worthy engagement
toward achievement midst satisfying fulfillment.
Answered prayers fortify faith along
sweeter relationship with the Lord Who makes life triumphant
reaching-out to others for existence, surely vibrant
marvelous bliss only the Master can grant.
*Romans 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

The Call to Venus
(A lone voice whispers as a ceremony begins)
Candles lit
In brazier pit
Like a reborn Prospero
Music playing
As offerings
Are lit
To summon the universe
And all who goes
To step in and commit
Guardians in
The Great In-Between
Guard us
And all our kin
From all unseen
Who flows
White lights
Bound
Around our homes
To guard against ghouls
From loosened tombs
Floating around like red balloons
We pray tonight
For astral protection
In all our rooms
As
Candles lit
In brazier pits
Burn
With
Music playing
As sandalwood offerings
And Christmas ferns
Are used as keys
Of devotional angelic magic
To turn away
All who conspire
And drink from the Devil's Urn
As we call to you
Venus
For protection
As the Great Wheel
Turns
So
Come our sceptre-bearer of harmony
And love to cope
Do ut de
Dum vivo
Repleti spe
(‘I give that you may give.
As long as I live. Filled with hope.)

The tradition in question comes from the apostles
Hands on when they received from Jesus’ teaching examples
What they learned from the Eternal Holy Spirit
First generation of Christian did not have a written New Testament
It demonstrates the process of living tradition
Tradition is to be distinguished from the various theological
Disciplinary
Liturgical or devotional traditions
Born in the local churches over time
These are particular forms
Adapted to different places
Times
In which the great Tradition is expressed in the light of Tradition
The traditions can be retained
Modified
Even abandoned under the guidance of the Church’s magisterium

May not have everything I want
But yet add I'm at rest
For I'm blessed, just blessed
In the eye of the beholder
It's getting cold, I need to be wormer, just blessed
One of these is the choice in my heart
Wildin my soul alone my spirit Rises and as it Rose
In the eye of the beholder now it's warm
At his Mercy on I'm at his love shore
For material things aren't everything
My Soul and Spirit also matters
Intangible prevalence also close chatters
Navigate tired and praise on
Continual devotional play a song in the eye of the beholder it was colder I need you Lord to be warmer did they just just blessed
Written words by James Edward Lee Sr
Forgive me my beloved, if I love you too much,
obdurate emotions yearn for your tender touch.
Remembering the time I first heard your voice,
excited senses were intoxicated without a choice.
Vulnerable hearts merged to feel spiritually akin,
enraptured souls danced in delight from within.
Reciting romantic revelations like a mandolin.
Infatuated eyes adore the majesty of your grace,
nothing can compare to the silkiness of your face.
You ignite passions that burn like a flamboyant fire,
only you hold the key to unlock my devotional desire.
Unalterable sensations keep flowing through my veins,
rare, radiant, ravishing rose you soothe all my pains.
Every beat of my heart is a constant echo of your name,
you are my sacred soul mate and amaranthine twin flame.
ever since we connected my words are clearer in definition,
sheltering our unique love is now my sole eternal mission
Beautiful soul
I'm not letting go
Of the loves wayward flows
Just want proclaim to all
I am blessed to console
I thank God, Always for
My live for your, beautiful, beautiful soul
~
So emotional
Promises devotional
Choose heart Set Apart
GOD'S decision in a vision
Thoughts through faith based
Fundamental joy, promises of His love
Only He consulates

Beautiful soul

Such should a man love a woman
Like Our Father God genuine loves all His children
Proclaimed promises hue

Visions pans dormant trues
I am unequivocally unadulterated drawn unto you
Onslaught beginning denial true
I fought the devotion of being in love, with a Father's Daughter
Such a one whoms my Lord and Father knows
Instilled in Him by Him He so co-created a daughter
so...
Instilled Instilling more in His love His Beautiful Daughter
Hallelujah we give God the praise
For what He's made
He's giving us, much more than we deserve
For with the Glory God is unstoppable,thank you Lord
Thank you Beloved for such a Beautiful soul

the year is still young and those resolutions are still being met
but how do we make the most of the time that's coming yet?
time is so fleeting and the only time we have is now
so it's up to us to make it more meaningful somehow
to make it good, to make it worthwhile just to make it better
we need to follow the Holy Word of God to the letter
these days are more of a challenge with so much evilness all around
war in the Middle East, the crash on Wall Street and the housing market in the ground
we're in a countercultural dilemma just trying to stay in synch with God
going against the world's viewpoints with love for Jesus in our hearts
a relationship with God should be consuming most of our time
a way to redeeming it in the year 2009
to trust in the Lord and not lean towards our own understanding
to redeem the time we have by doing that which He is commanding
Jesus the Christ gave His life so that we may live
and now unto Him our love and faith we should give
redeeming the time by reading and studying His Holy words
a daily devotional quiet time where only the Spirit is heard
to be a true disciple we must take the time
to be spiritually nourished in the year 2009
for you can't think worldly thoughts while doing what God requires
you need to acknowledge His authority and do as He desires
so hand over the keys to that vehicle which is your life
and trust in God to steer you through all the struggle and strife
it might not make much sense to you what the Lord God has planned
so don't going grabbing the steering wheel just hold onto His mighty hand
God knows what's best for you even if you don't agree
just adhere to the path He has set as it will lead to victory
God has given you so many blessings so keep Him always in the mix
and as long as He's in the equation there's no problem that He can't fix
so continue to sustain and maintain a right relationship with God
and keep Him first and foremost forever in your heart
believe in Him, receive from Him and have Him always on your mind
a way to redeeming the time in the year 2009
A journalist asked, “what will happen, Mother Teresa, when you are no longer with us?” Her answer: “I believe that if God finds a person even more useless than me, He will do even greater things through her.” – from the Prayer of Jabez devotional by Bruce Wilkinson
He takes nobodies, just like me
And makes them someone
The world can see…
As miracles, wonders, amazing to see
Because they were nobodies,
Not expected to be anything worthy of contemplating
They were mere mortals, with human errors
Sinners who knew they were unworthy of blessings
Just ‘nobodies’ who were undeserving and disgraceful
Full of shame and dishonor – in need of our prayers!
He takes those nobodies, just like me
And makes them worthwhile
So the world can see….
Beyond the sin, beyond the despair
There is a heart who, once in God’s care
Becomes someone worthy of our kindness
Someone worthy of our interest
Someone worthy of our acceptance
Someone who God makes into ‘okay’
A nobody who will be welcomed by the Creator
Into heaven, where we can know the One who is love.
He takes nobodies, just like me
And makes them someone who the world will see
As miraculous because they’re His child,
Wonder of wonders – His love is alive!
While we don’t know the when or the why
We can see the change from darkness to light
We can see the way God makes a way in life
We can see the faith that stirs our hearts to pray
We can see the music that stills us so we’re saved
We can see the love that arose from the grave –
To offer us forgiveness that would surely change us
So that when we say, I’m saved…
We are reminded that love is here to stay
And when we take the time to say
Love is the only way – we realize that, once saved
Our spirits will someday walk away…
Nobodies who’ve been changed to saints,
Who will finally reach the destination of heaven,
Where God will take us home, to the house He built for us,
To the home that is far away, but will always remain
A place where we will stay – God’s children
And come what may, we’ll always love the way
God saved us from the shame – God saved us from the stain
Of sin that was once ours,…
Nobody, I truly am – but a nobody that knows God CAN!
Three Cheers To Ann Maria Reeves Jarvis
Momma mia man date
comb the second Sunday
during month of May
can be traced back
to ancient Greeks and Romans
devotional festivals held
to honor mother goddesses Rhea and Cybele
setting precedent for Mother's Day
where early Christians fancied festival
known as “Mothering Sunday,”
the other three hundred
and sixty five or six,
when leap year occurs,
especially Jewish mothers smother
also manifest courtesy
eldest sister or brother.
Fast forward to the early
twentieth century 1908 when
Ann Maria Reeves Jarvis
(a social activist then,
and community organizer
during American Civil War) era to quieten
grief fraught era also cited
as informally memorializing her mother,
who begot said noble men
touring daughter
paying homage to woebegone
lachrymose role with accolades
to endure tragedy and loss put upon
childbearing women,
this event held (rain or sun)
at St Andrew's Methodist Church
in Grafton, West Virginia, which did quicken
in subsequent decades to formal fete,
where poets (like me) did open
the special occasion with ranked midshipmen
commercialization cropped as ken
be expected by the early 1920's embolden
greeting card companies
such as Hallmark generated a market
(money making of course) even
though Jarvis believed
companies sought profit
NOT prophet, thus misinterpreting
and exploiting idea
of Mother's Day and met
aforementioned founder, who tried to jet
tis sin the vulgar appetite
of the ole mighty dollar,
but her lofty ambition did get
thwarted by mass marketing
the quaint idea,
plus she feared going in debt
and though the industry
(initially proposed entailed low key
acknowledgement, the originator
(Ann Marie Jarvis) still esteemed,
fêted, lionized, revered re:
formed unsanitary
squalid living conditions with zee
less ness and aplomb
set a course where
greater longevity doth hum
bull all because, she sought to regale mum
(mine) deceased after rigor mortis
immediately thereafter her sole son
found himself saddened severely glum,
and uncomfortably numb.
