January 9 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Genesis 25-27
Key Verse – Genesis 25:21 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY ENTREATY-FILLER
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who truly provides and fully blesses
Thank You for protecting me from struggles of selfish causes…
Forgive me for dwelling in worldly premises
And for not abiding in Your plan because of evil forces.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who rescues me from spiritual famine
Thank You for admonishing me to abstain from any sin…
Forgive me for sojourning inside enemy’s camp of cursing din
And for not obeying Your voice that supplies my empty bin.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who enables me to abide in Your will
Thank You for cleansing me of guilt with Your sanctification-bill…
Forgive me for compromising, deceived by stinging falsity-pill
And for not pitching my desires toward Your holy hill.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who makes me productive and fruitful
Thank You for multiplying my abilities for me to be bountiful…
Forgive me for building own altar with motives, arrogantly awful
And for not performing my covenant because I’m cowardly doubtful.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who loves me completely, indeed very dearly
Thank You for bringing to me Your kindness so sweetly…
Forgive me for neglecting Your call deliberately
And for not responding to Your divine invitation consciously.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who cares for me with peace and compassion
Thank You for granting me wisdom along prudent discretion…
Forgive me for depriving my soul with Your gracious satisfaction
And for not valuing Your presence, exchanging it with worthless function.
Lord God, You are my entreaty-Filler
Who timely answers my need
Thank You for breaking my yoke from haughty deed…
Forgive me for indulging in purposeless greed
And for not reaching Your standards where You have me freed.

BETWEEN FIRST LOVE & TRUE LOVE
They said FIRST LOVE never dies in real life
but TRUE LOVE will undoubtedly bury it alive.
Heart is thorn between Devil & the Deep Bluesea,
Cast out into reality from her world of fancy;
Broods in seclusion without the invitation of brain,
yet maintain status quo & sentiments she'll abstain.
Heart is the stage, platform for lovers & haters;
First love & True love are the debaters.
The later & former inquire about their deal breakers.
First love or True love, which is better & caters?
What is true can either come first or last,
cos true love blosom more than the blast of the past
despite being the initial, genesis, or first,
true love everlastingly quenches the past thirst.
First love will probably disflower you
and yet still end-up making you feel blue.
But true love will always stay real & true,
despite all the turbulence around you,
y'all will still definitely come through.
First love will never die, and that's true,
but True love will bury it alive regardless of who.

I don't know what I am going to write
But I will write about synapsis
I have no idea what that is
But that is the word that comes to my mind
Do you ever write about something that you don't even know
But just let the Holy Spirit guide you?
I heard about this word when I was in school
It has something to do with mechanism for the genetic crossing over
That is when your gene is multiplied my friend
But what does that had to do with me?
A lot
If it wasn't for that you wouldn't be here
Save the multiplying for God, right?
Does God ever tell you to multiply?
Yeah in Genesis 1:28
"Be fruitful and multiply...."
And in Genesis 26:24
"Fear not, for I am with you and will bless you
and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham's sake."
So how are you going to multiply if you are a homosexual?
I am not saying that you go and hate all the homosexuals
as God does not indoctrinate hate
God teaches us compassion and understanding
We have to educate them
Not to change their life styles
But to inhabit the earth
with their offsprings
Does God ever call them to do that?
God called everyone
And they are no different
Let's cultivate the earth
"Multiply and be fruitful"
Be a part of someone
Be a part of anyone
That is no
Lol
But just be a part, will ya?
Male and female --- God created* them both
Such anchors equality’s verity
Having exactly the same source of breath
Designed to bear the Sovereign’s image
Optimizing granted growth avenues.
Gratefully serving as vessels of love
Fulfilling varied roles with utmost best
Midst faith that propels assigned tasks and chores
Cognizant of gender distinctive traits
Sir and Ma'am are needed greatly alike.
Beautiful life with Mr. and Mrs.
Wondrous family of good partnership
As father and mother with might and grace
Brother and sister of caring gestures
Poet and poetess asserting kindness-bliss.
*Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

THE LION WHO RUNS FROM A LION
Born of a Lion
But raised among sheep.
Stronger than iron
But shiver like leaves in upsweep.
Boldness is one of your identities
But at the sight of your clan,
you flee in company of groupies
And scatter before God and Man.
Instead of taking your territories
As it is written from the Genesis,
You succumb to your enemies
just at the sight of their emissaries,
Not knowing the old saying of wise words:
"He who runs because he has seen the Lions
can never run faster than he who runs
because the Lions has seen him" in the woods.
Since the son of a Lion is a (lion) cub,
Then the son of God is a god.
That's the veracity you have to absorb.
Accommodate this truth in your taste bud.

Remember the day
Apron strings loosed,untied
as maternal voices faltered and cried
Remember the day
When a soprano voice lost its elan
and a boy became a man
Remember the day
Peer pressure would not hide
and diffidence was replaced with pride
Remember the day
Desire,with warm whispers heard
questions,answered with just three words
Remember the day
Filled with joy and love
a union blessed from above
Remember the day
Holding a first-born,so wee
as two self-absorbed,became three
Remember the day
Trust was born-a-new
a changed life came into view
Remember the day
Genesis as a work of art
with gifts to share and impart
Remember the day

Giving Godly Grace
Giving Godly grace calls us to walk
In God’s sweet embracing footsteps of mercy’s tears,
Vital in vivacity grace births the soul of eternal vitality,
Infused gratuity – no small tokens but tips of profound charity –
Gracious orisons from the Master’s overflowing favor.
Grace glimpses Genesis’ handwriting spoken - it is good -
Oblation in offertory pushing aside offense askance -
Dawning grace glazes gates locked by incense taken
Lifting us up, like a Samaritan lifts the wounded from shared dust
Yielding pride’s stubbed toes of smug rightness to yesterday.
Grace - gift of perfection intoned in pure harmony –
Raised relief, benediction’s signature written
An apple of God’s eye handed to us in ribbons of forgiveness,
Consecrated on two wooden beams at the edge of oblivion,
Endowed with eternal favor – gift for us to exchange again and yet again.

Contest: Giving Godly Grace Acrostic
Sponsor: Regina McIntosh
"Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water there. But the herders of Gerar quarreled with those of Isaac and said, “The water is ours!” Genesis 26:19-20
Do you hear argument’s doorbell?
Jealousy causes a groundswell
like a sink hole.
Antagonists are raising hell
over an underground bombshell
greed's sordid goal.
Contentious opinions foretell
what sounds like a solemn death knell.
Isaac would bid anger farewell;
he'd forgo harm, refuse to yell,
showing control.
He'd breathe deeply, hot air expel
before maddening tempers swell.
Like him, extol
peacetime; just dig another well;
be forgiving. Ring freedom's bell.
I will show you fear in a handful of dust
TS Eliot wrote “The Waste Land” and he said “I will show you fear in a handful of dust.”
Maybe he had read Genesis in the Bible, back then it was perhaps a must.
At Genesis chapter3 and verse 19, Adam and Eve are now disgraced
Adam and his wife Eve are from the Garden of Eden being displaced
The pronouncement made by God that day, I am sure it bought a tear
And this is perhaps where Eliot got his line about a ‘handful of dust and fear.’
“In the sweat of your face you will eat bread, until you return to the ground”
Now I am not sure at this point but I don’t think TS Eliot was around.
The quote continues “From dust you were taken and to dust you will return.”
Now that is the wages that sin did pay, the wages Adam back then did earn.
The fear of man is dying but worse than that when it’s getting near as it must
Remember that Eliot and the Bible say, “I will show you fear in a handful of dust.”

Competition Entry:
This morning as I was reading the genealogy of Jesus from Matthew's Gospel, a fresh thought occurred to me that I had not entertained prior. It concerns Judah and his sons in general and one in particular. It concerns Mary's husband Joseph and how his response to God contrasts with that of Judah's son, Onan.
Judah had three sons before he experienced the bizarre encounter with Tamar and impregnated her with twins. There was Er who died prematurely due to his wickedness. There was Shelah the youngest of the three who later became a deep subject of concern. The rest of this story concerns Judah's second son who chose selfishness above responsibility.
Joseph's first response to a very questionable happenstance was one of confusion. Essentially Joseph was saying, "I don't like what I'm seeing; this is not what I signed up for; this is not my fault; I will be nice and honorable, but I'm out of here". However, while he was thinking about his next move, God spoke to him. Unlike Judah's son Onan, Joseph listened and cooperated with the Lord. Joseph endured the hardship of fleeing his homeland to Egypt in fear for the life of The Son of God. We have no clue of what would have happened had he not yielded to God's directions. After all, we are not robots; we have a free choice. We do know that when we listen to God, we are able to see the bigger picture and not 'a selfy'.
Onan*, on the other hand, knew and was told of his responsibility to perform the traditional family duty regarding his deceased brother. He could not see how he could 'personally benefit' by helping his brother. He could not see the forest for the single tree looking back at him. In the language of today, Onan made a choice and took 'the selfy road'. Joseph portrays the Christmas spirit of giving of one's self while Onan gave absolutely nothing. Unlike Joseph who saw beyond himself, Onan only could see himself. In so doing, he had no genealogy, dying alone, leaving no descendants.
