God's life lesson
found in his reflection
that he created in his image
was to learn never to discard or disregard the importance
or love he had for any of his creation
but to improve on them in every way
the meaning of life
love
fate
time
destiny
mankind
and life itself
He did this to surprise himself
and enjoy humbling himself for his creations
a planet and a heaven that does so for him
Living an everlasting life
where that he was the first to live
and the last to die
This lesson had to be learned prior to allowing his creations
to be by his side in eternal life
The meaning of life
and the angel of death
helped him learn what he needed to discover
to become flawless at this
The meaning of life
surrendered to a task of living a lie
becoming a false prophet whom would eventually sort this out
ask god for forgiveness
for being carried away in his selfrighteous lies and denial
of being loved by his creator
being a non believer of his maker
who had created something god placed above himself
god chose to forget himself
so this life lesson would be easier for him to realise
Thus god was inevitably going to be succesful
in this demonstation of forgiveness upon his creations and himself
to understand his new awareness
of a plan that he had for himself
to achieve a higher experience of eternal love
The meaning of life living a lie
to keep the everyone in blissful ignorance
of god's temporary weakness
and that was when the angel of death took part in helping god learn
by making the meaning of life's lie an unpleasant experience for everyone
The meaning of life then humbled himself
to the realisation
by being recognised as a team player a part of god's divine plan
by this truth recognised he would be healed
and the fact of who he did it for
god would know it was his brother's turn
to be released from the chains
of taking upon the metaphor or personification of murder
whom life itself was metaphorically married to
god's life lesson to learn from himself
his love and his creations to achieve the biggest miracle of love
one that would be never ending just continually improved on
as suggested by father time
Redeemed
Redeemed by his blood cleansed of all the wickedness of my sins
Hope resides in Christ when sometimes we feel he hasn’t heard he actually did
Listen to the call for your destiny to be fulfilled no matter where you are in life
Just know that you can live.
He created you for such a times as this
, and even though it’s been hard he is somewhere watching you in the midst
Cry now, but laugh later because Jesus will hold up your head when its down I have seen a
lot of things ,and held a lot of shame ,and at times I couldn’t escape my own pain but by his
grace he held me tight his palms kept me tattooed into his hands
Sometimes I have even asked my own self why this life because I did not understand, but
just know no matter how many foes ,or how long the road. You have been redeemed your
not lost, and you can always come back home.
I just want you to know that Jesus loves you no matter what it looks like your life can be his
to change I have been through things that should killed me, or destroyed, but here I stand
before you writing, and pouring out my love to you to let you know that you don’t have to go
through life lost or confused you have been redeemed no matter you have done in life Jesus
can forgive he did it for me ,and he will do it for you . I LOVE YOU ,AND SO DOES HE

Here is a simple prayer
"The Sinners Prayer"..........................
Heavenly Father:..........................................................................
I come to you in prayer asking for the forgiveness of
my Sins. I confess with my mouth and believe with my

Cross at Calvary that I might be forgiven and have
Eternal Life in the Kingdom of Heaven. Father, I believe
that Jesus rose from the dead and I ask you right now
to come in to my life and be my personal Lord and
Savior. I repent of my Sins and will Worship you all the
day's of my Life!. Because your word is truth, I confess
with my mouth that I am Born Again and Cleansed
by the Blood of Jesus! In Jesus Name, Amen

I am the one guy that doesn't go to your school but everyone knows
I know every song and the way it goes
I try to stay away from bimbos and hoes
Me and my friends play games such as nose goes (inside joke)
I am skinny medium height
Everything I am about to tell you is right
I have potential in my life
And I will be the differential in this time of strife
I will make and break nations
Change individual denominations
I want to start all of this with you
Because right now you look down and blue
I want to cheer you up
This will make you tough
Your blues have had enough
I know right now life is rough
But I will help you be strong
Everything the world is telling you is wrong
Sex is a widely advertised and marketed hobby
This is wrong
Do not go along
Be strong
Be tough
Drinking on Friday nights never led to anything good
So why should
You drink
Of this let us think
You tend to forget those nights
And sometimes you would ever get into fights
And these nights have brought you what?
Nothing that is what
A good time with these buddies
Usually ends up bad
And deep down I know you are sad
So here is how to become glad
Follow me
And you shall see
That there is one who can see it all
Can pick you up when you fall
Stand you up tall
And never let anything knock you down
He is always around
So take away your frown
And look towards God
Humble in his glory
And he will cast away your every worry
He will awaken new life inside of you
Of this I swear true
So tell my new friend
Are you prepared?
Are you ready?
I will take you to church
I will help you out
No longer shall you scream and shout
No longer dazed and confused
Just look at you
You are feeling better already
So can't you see?
This life within us all
Was here all along
Now sing this song
Sign along
To Grace Amazing (Song commonly played at my church)
As you sing this I see you are changing
I can't help but smile
All the while
You had this potential too
Now you know it is true
(On my myspace also)

For the sun rising each and every day,
Blazing fire in the sky
Illuminating all there is to see.
Painting the morning
With deep blue, pink, and orange,
Creating the most splendid rainbow
The eye could ever see.
For the moon each night,
Radiating its magnificent light.
As its brothers and sisters
Twinkle all around.
The silver and white beauty
Cascading down upon a quiet earth,
Creating a majesty of art all around.
For the rain that falls,
Giving life to all that grows.
Making flowers breath taking,
And trees awe-inspiring.
Filling the rivers with water,
Rushing white, and calming blue,
Making the land move and come alive.
For the spirit filling the body,
Swelling with happiness and hope,
The center of love and life.
The most mysterious beauty
Known to man, and also the most familiar.
A beacon of luminous light guiding the way
Through the darkness all around.
For the trials facing everyday life,
Reminding us of our strength,
And keeping us close to you.
Showing that life is still possible
Through times of hardship, and that
There are no burdens we are given
That are too heavy for us to carry.
For the love surrounding us
Through friends, family, and you.
Keeping us strong and compassionate,
Bringing sadness and great joy.
Showing that you are ever present,
Never leaving our sides, and always
Giving us what we need.
For your son, who took on all of our
Mistakes and wrong doings, though we
Do not always show our thanks.
Opening the gates to your great kingdom,
So that we may one day walk with
You in your place of perfection and beauty
Only knowing love, peace, and serenity.
For allowing us back to you
After turning our backs and disobeying your law.
Your great mercy never ending,
Your word guiding our way,
Your punishments keeping us humble,
And your strength that is
Enough to carry us all in your hands.
some people think life's a game
hurting others over and over again
I came from a broken family
I came from a broken home
and someties I was locked out on the streets to roam,
the brokeness in my childhood caused insecurities and brokeness in my own adult life
But Lord when I completley gave my life to you I was finaly free from all the pain and strife,
after 30 years I was complete and whole again
even through my most troubled times you loved me just the same,
Lord I carn't thank you enough for giving a new life to me and my family
words Just carn't describe how much you we do adore
and through your goodness our lives you did restore,
Lord you are more precious and more valuable than any earthly thing
you're the only one who makes our heart sing,
I am sorry for the times I may of been a litle bit defiant
I am sorry for the times I may of been self reliant
i am sorry for the times I may not of been the best that i could be
and Lord i'll be forever thankful that through your Grace and Compassion
that you restored me.
In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal Glory by means of Jesus Christ. So
after you have suffered a little while , he will restore, support, and strengthen you and he will
place you on a firm foundation. all power to him forevr Amen. 1 peter 5 verses 10 and 11.
when people shatter our lives and our world comes crashing down God never fails to pick us
back up and puts our pieces back together, even stronger than we were before, God gives
every one freedom of choice it's not his fault when people choose to hurt us, he Just loves us
and catches us when we fall. God loves us with an everlasting love, never will he leave us
never will he forsake us, my life was broken apart more than once but I thank the Lord
that he restored my life and made me the person I am today. Amen
My dearest friend, i truly hope these words of council find you well
Word has come upon my ear that you are in much need of a warm speech
Means find me not suited to come exchange words personally, yet my soul is with you
Yes many moons have passed since we last stood to our own shadows, this i cant deny
Only if you knew of recent events that have scared my spirit deeply ever now
Loose not thy faith, for at times like this it is the only warmth that one could find real
The hand of life presses firmly on, yet i plea to you and stand strong it will be hard
Open your eyes, and bless Him that loves us all, His life he gave that you may draw breath
Gently feel the wind, listen it whispers of better times that are still to come
Pay mind to the wise council of God, for joy lays in the days of he whom keeps it
Lift your troubles, embrace the present, look back knowing it's long gone
Learn if you can, mistakes only aid the growth of wisdom in each spirit
Ignore the tounges that speak to their own benefit, seek the joy of your own soul
Dont you see tomorrow they claim their joy, least you whom still seeks to theirs
Aid those whom you can, tomorrows moon will look down upon you with gratitude
For those whom aid the sons of God, build treasure up in heven where rust ceases to be
Let the colors of life be painted unto your canvas where your story begins
Bear the fruits of whom you are high, for life alone is but a gift
Love with your all, make mistakes we all fall short from the glory of God
He knows you better than anyone else, love Him and see his blessing poured unto you
Listen that my verse fades unto nothing, pause and take note of facts that stand
My knowledge comes from one greater over all the earth
Jehova my God loves you, take then hope beneath my wing, and angels wing
"Fragments and crumbs of life, all the little pieces" ---John Ruskin, 1853
Are being gathered by the Angels and presented to the Lord.
They will be there at judgment time in all their shame or glory
As evidence of my faithful adherence to His Word.
Many times my life has crumbled and I’ve promised to do better.
No changes can I make to deeds once done or words once said.
The angels will not miss a single sliver of the remnants
Of the goodness or the baseness in the earthly life I’ve led.
God has a different measure than the judges of the world.
He may deem my sin more evil than the murderer’s vile deed,
If I have not loved my neighbor and have failed to feed His hungry
Or been aware of his commandments and have simply failed to heed.
My faithful parents taught me to be servant of the Lord.
If I should fail it's not their fault but mine alone.
And now I come to you Lord in tearful supplication
Please forgive me for forgetting You and struggling on my own.
You sent your Son to save us with admonition to believe,
If we give to Him our burdens all our sins will be forgiven.
With arrogance I tarried, thinking his help wasn’t needed,
I had led a life so blameless, I could earn my way to Heaven.
One of the Heavenly Beings who is gathering the pieces,
Is my own Guardian Angel who has been with me always.
He has shown me the pieces that were blacker than the others
And are shouting of my failures and the error of my ways.
Sins of omission there as well as dark sins of commission.
I pray Lord that you strike them from my open book of Life.
I beg before my sands run out that I may be forgiven
And I come to you in glory when I leave this world of strife.

For Constance's contest "All the Little Pieces" won 4th place
Everyone says no
It is not to be so
Down that road you are not to go
For it will only be paved with pain and woe
Everyone seeming to know what's best
Rantings and ravings leaving no time for rest
Patience and respect being put to the test
Indifference and lack of trust lead to a life with no zest
A life once ruled by arrogance and pride
In him is now hope and does the saviour abide
A rumor falsely started can make you want to hide
And lead you to think twice about in whom you can confide
No life is not writtled with regrets from the past
And yet the first stone people are all to willing to cast
A sinless life can no human make last
Like a ship in a storm with a broken mast
If Jesus is Lord and in your heart does he live
Why do people find it so hard to forgive
For the Son of God came to earth and did live
And for ALL of mankind his life he was willing to give
If to him you have given all of your heart
And your old life you are willing to depart
He will lift you up and set you apart
And give unto you a new start
I wrote this for a friend of mine that i grew up with. He moved away for a few years, and
lived a rather trouble filled life in that time. Recently, he has come back and has asked Jesus
to be his Saviour and Lord of his life. He is a changed man, however people still refuse to see
him for the man he is now rather than the person he was before. I understand that sin not
only leaves you with scares but also on those around you, and sometimes it is hard to
forgive and forget; However, that is what we as christians should do. We are to not hold
somebodys past above their head and begrudge a person the forgiveness that they so
desperately wish for. We need to leave judgement in the hands of the True Judge.
Some write to write, others to please their own romance and love
I write to enchant thy heart, and thy imagination, thy vision
To tell yee the truth I write to please my desire, to fulfill a personal mission
For I am to touch the souls of men into the right path with God our lord from above
When yee find thyself in the open pause thy heart and look at your surroundings
Pay audience to nature herself, for she comes alive but by His breath of life that creates
Open thy ear, feel the peace that flows in the open air, hear yee not the wind it sings!
Whom but all poets shall come to open eyes, for their gift is to see and write to appreciate
Walk in thy own path, make thy own life come to life
Thank Him everyday for thy joy, for thy own peace
For sooner than the sun sets for eternity will His return be, and all time will cease
Drink thy wine, live life with joy, and be true to thy wife
For it is promised that yee shall receive no more than thee can bare
As He knows of thy hearts smallest desires, and will provide, if thee seeks Him first
Jump with tears of gratitude, for He promised a Bright tomorrow
Will no one believe, as in the times of Noah? Believeth so for all must end, all sorrow
With each passing sun He nears
Yet the world stands idly by, no one even fears
The heart of the earth finds itself celebrating and ill in fake cheers
Little do they know, that He will arrive in times of sleep and with an army of spears
Hear the message for it is not I that write to thy aid, but our Lord himself for he loves us all
as all men were created equal, and some to speak to hearts
Feel the burden that dwells on my heart, and read on before thy soul departs
Rejoice in my art, as I bring about the art that comes from the heart
The truth about love is that it isn’t just life.
The truth is that it is a set feeling in your heart that happens once
And never goes away.
Like a painting, you paint, with the utmost creative cells in your mind, once you create it, the
image is there forever.
My heart is a lonely heart. It’s scared, fearing everyone life will bring into mine.
Children mostly.
I dried another tear, just yesterday. Let it trickle onto the counter top. It evaporated with
my lost thoughts and words. Once again nothing happened.
Life moves on. Why can’t I go with it?
I lie awake imagining what I must have. It’s more then one person should ask for.
It’s not fulfilling to live with half of my heart in something that is supposed to make me
whole.
I wonder what kind of person that makes me, do I deserve to be imprisoned by my lunatic
mind?
Probably.
I could sprint toward that picture love I created, but it wouldn’t welcome me.
It left me back in Oregon on the sandy beaches. It is imprinted on the dock, where the water
rolled in and took that picture right into the sea.
I could run a marathon in a dead sprint, and never catch that breeze again. Though I keep
imagining what it would be like.
I do not know what I should deserve here; I know it’s intriguing to think it’s possible.
My life will weep forever. Its dream set on what doesn’t exist anymore.
The truth about life is once you have found that feeling; you have to learn to overcome it.
You have to overcome love.
I can’t do that. I can’t make myself forget. I have tried.
I will stay here in Oregon. Where the waves in my heart come and go with every memory. I
will stay, always waiting...for nothing, because it was once something
