Troublesome Times
By: Miracle Man
8-2-2023

Today we are living in uncertain times,
and umpteen believe the end is nearing.
Daily we face an assortment of crimes,
and situations are rarely as appearing.

Many turn their heads and refuse to view,
opting to remain on the road most traveled.
Those whom we can trust are becoming few,
they want no part of the road untraveled.
 
But at each life’s end a judgment awaits,
where each knee bows and tongues confess.
The road we’ve traveled determines our fates,
and it’s then to late our choices to address.

The biggest lie the Devil ever told wasn’t that there was no God,
just that we have plenty of time.

Matthew 7:13-14 KJV
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

~It's Only Through Jesus~ 
(Rhyme) 


It's only through Jesus that we can come to that wonderful place 
So filled of love, and peace and supplied of eternal grace 
It's only through Jesus that we can come to His Father someday 
The Bible makes it so plain and clear and there's no other way

God is the sovereign Author of everything upon the Universe,the sea and earth, 
He's written it all and designed it all with His own Almighty Hands 
God is the Master Painter of everything you see all over the sea and every land 
It's only through Jesus, the Perfect Lamb,that we can have salvation for eternity His love is so Grand

It's only through Jesus,that you can have the precious treasure of "new birth" and  be "Born Again" spiritually 
Just then you can understand and see the big picture, and discover, why so many things really make sense 
The importance of God's plan and how much He really loves us all 
Nothing happens by accident,He already had a plan for you and me, His love is profoundly immense 

Praise be the Name of our Mighty God, because He's in control of everything you can and may not see
It's only through Jesus that we can have life abundantly and eternally, call Jesus! and then you'll see.

Tap in to the truth - Scripture reading: John 3:16

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY SON,THAT WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHALL NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. -JOHN 3:16

IN GOD I TRUST! 

My very favorite Psalm in the Holy Bible..Psalm 23.

Psalm 23 King James Version (KJV)

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Amen!

Premium Member The Lord My Shepherd King- Psalm 23

The Lord who is God reigns above
forever be always my shepherd king
in green pastures beside still waters
making my heart always in him cling

Bringing restoration to my soul
following my Lord the righteous route
walking in step fearing no evil
even death's shadows I can shoot

The shepherd's rod my true comfort
assured of his merciful goodness so true
all of my life's days they follow
so to dwell in Lord's house, I will do

(The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.)

Doublethink Beliefs

This life
Revolving me around the sun as an elite on this earth my gift,  
                                                      a present moment fiat 
churning days of joy, bittersweets tears, laughter, chagrins 
                                                        forever partaking, its all me ; 
Sensations burning, yearning, learning, accompanied by others 
this life that I have chosen from the moment of orb conception 
                                                         is a volunteered existence, pre-promised   
I am following my destiny, wherever it leadeth me ...  

My Next Life 

I am the essence of His calling deeper then the Marianna trench 
a sonar topography returning to the waters of His jet   
Like a dying sunset glow, I am His nimbus one more time 
returning to the equilibrium of one last outlet   
inside the Buddhist wheel, a sacred scroll holds my  name
I never do it twice the same, this is my refrain... 

As My Breath Flows Here And Now 

Succumbing to the memory loss of my last womb  experience 
I take first breath, first sight into a newborn family of old; 
If each lifetime brings an origami experience, a soluble lesson      
then  let it be me again, and again, and again....

Premium Member THE LORD IS MY MUSE

THE LORD IS MY MUSE* 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Lord is my muse; I shall not despair. 

He giveth me inspiration; he leadeth me to magical waters.

He restoreth my creativity; he float-eth ideas in my mind, for poetry’s sake.

Although I write in the early morning hours and darkness of night, I will remain tireless; for thou art with me; thy energy and enthusiasm comfort me.

We traverse the night together, endlessly seeking the stars. Thou anointest me with metaphors, rhymes, and alliterations; my imagination runneth over.

Surely effortlessly flowing words shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will write in the house of His spirit forever.

*Note: This poem was written for a 2024 Poetry Soup contest in which entrants were to adapt Psalm 23 for writers. My intent, therefore, was not to plagiarize the Bible.


Premium Member In His Love and Grace -The Trine Style

~In His Love And Grace~
(Trine)


My rock and my lighthouse is really God 
He's my greatest inspiration, He's also my rod. 

When earthquakes and storms in life I have to face 
All that I need to do is just seek my Lord's grace. 

In good and bad times to God I fervently pray 
On Him I can absolutely rely and always lean on to every day. 

With all my might and soul to God I praise and applaud 
And with all my heart and soul to all Jesus' teachings I embrace
Knowing that no matter what He's with me, and loves me forever all the way.

Premium Member Praise Be to Dog

My dog is my shadow, we shall now walk

He maketh me to play fetch in green pastures:
he leadeth me to sticks in still waters

He has toreth big holes
and keepeth me from the path with viciousness for his bone's sake

Yea, though we walk through the alley, it's so bad what you left, I
steer clear of people: for thou art with me, my dog and thy path leads right to me

I preparest a fable about you in the presence of mine enemies: to the point they in dread recoil when my pup runneth over

Pure, free goodness, my doggy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in this house with my friend forever

Premium Member Realities As Poetry Gems

Lingering scenes hide in my subconscious 
Vie for favor vicariously precious…

Soul that struggles against human nature
Contends to glow toward spotlight feature…

Hypocrisy keeps lurking amidst pride
Brags along false humility’s long stride…

Grievous regrets expose frustration pain
Leave heart in agony against joy-reign...

Repentance* that I neglect to express well
Faith's spirit basks in God’s miracle-swell.

*Romans 2:4  Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

Psalm 23: Modern Version Contest

1] The Lord is my Teacher; I yearn to know.
2] He taketh me to read in libraries serene: He leadeth me to instruction and knowledge. 
3] He restores my faith: He takes me from blind valleys to mountains of sight, to find wisdom. 
4] As I walk through the darkness of lies, on every side, I Am unafraid: for your light shines before me; Thy sword of truth protects me. 
5]He feeds my hunger for knowledge and my thirst for truth in the presence of ignorance: He guards my mind from pestilence: epiphanies overflow. 
6] Surely wisdom and understanding will clothe me with inner beauty: and I will strive to learn from my Teacher forever.

Premium Member What Is the Cost

See to believe in what now has to offer up to the Great I Am. We
 Speak the words that plant solid ground, letting go of the hurt, the tears,
 the flame of unfairness, sorrows, grief, dirty hands, even
 Pains of doubts, fears, blame what is the cost?
 Should we speak now or ride the silent train, understanding our shallow frame,
 how frail we are in this world called earth, understanding the gain
but still refrain from small talk, digestion nothing gained.
 As the breeze blows through the trees and the wind of the season
 repeats to go and flows to another reason; time waits for no one
 Time, when sometimes late, now we see the pathway very clear
 after it is nothing but too late tears, foggy, dusty roads to see what could have been 
Now a memory of what is left in our space and place in the earth, our rainy days and happy times
of today, of now, not knowing in the end what tomorrow will bring, climbing  the uncertain 
mountain of what if! So we pray
 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want 
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures he leadeth me beside the still waters he restoreth my soul he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for thou art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies thou anointest my head with oil my cup runneth over surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever
 
What is the cost!                                                                                     What is the cost?
