Premium Member Happiness, Or Joy

The word 'happy' appears in the Bible 26 times; happier appears 1 time.
The words joy, joyful, and joyous are recorded more than 200 times.
A Master Card Ad from the late 90s comes to mind with regards to
things that are really important and tend toward happiness and joy.
"Two baseball game tickets, $28; 2 hot dogs, 2 pop corns, 2 sodas, $18;
autographed baseball, $45; a real conversation with your son, priceless."
We mortals spend a life time searching for happiness as we know it, and
although the pursuit is endless, in reality, such happiness is over rated.
But we do not realize its rating until we arrive at the 'gate of happiness'.
When we ascertain its worth, we continue our pursuit of 'endless futility'.
Animals seem content with the ability to feed, to shelter, and to breed.
The Jeremiah passage is most inspiring, reminding us that satisfying ourselves
is fruitless unless, "...we send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared..."* The happiness we seek evades us because we roam in wrong places, searching for self-perceived happiness outside of ourselves and apart from our creator. Seeking self-defined happiness or joy outside of and apart from our creator is tantamount to attempting to plant and grow seed in a steel beam which is lifeless and thus void of productive abilities. Such places and things are incapable of delivering the happiness we seek, but the real
happiness to which we give little pursuit is priceless. If the joy of the Lord is our strength, falsified joy/happiness is our weakness.

Thank You for purging me by Your sanctification
As I abide in Your will for my testimony’s beautification
While worshipping You with wholehearted devotion.

Lord God, You are my confession Hearer regarding my downfall
Thank You for reaching out to me whenever to You I call
As I grieve for my frustrations against fruitfulness-hall
While trusting You for me to stand faithful, spiritually tall.

Making It Happen Part 4: Take It To God In Prayer

some wish it would happen, some want it to happen, 
some don't know what happened and some don't even care
but if you're inspired you can make it happen 
inspite of your limitations and fears

Nehemiah was compelled by the Holy Spirit he was determined in his mission
even though the temple had been rebuilt he knew the walls were in bad condition
he knew in order to make it happen you must first take it to God and pray
to allow the presence of the Holy Spirit to come in and have Its way

in order to make it happen take it to God and let Him make it His project
allow Him to process if for you so you'll get the result that you expect
in order to make it happen you need to be patient and plan carefully
and to have the spirit of preparation and a mindset of persistancy

we live in a remote control society where at the push of a button 
we get an instant reaction
but the reality of life is that you don't always get instant satisfaction
timing is that all important factor when it comes to what one aspires to do
for it's not about us but the timing of God that we are all subject to
the kyros time of God will prevail no what what we desire or expect
and I don't need to remind you that God doesn't own a Rolex

as it's not about fast it's about experience when walking in spirituality
where everyone involved in making it happen possesses a spirit of godly unity
in order to make it happen you need to contribute by doing your part 
with a spirit of perseverance fully in your heart
in order to make it happen adjust your priorities 
with a proper perspective for your cause
and don't allow the haters to intervene nor make you stop nor pause
and be watchfull towards those who are trying to profit from the plight of the poor
speak truth to those in positions of power and let them know what you stand for
with the proper perspective patient planning, preparation and prayer from the start
God will help you make it happen as long as you do it with a righteousness of heart

Premium Member Life Building

The God of heaven prospers us in life building*
While we yield to His patient scraping shovel’s might
Molding us to guide others to righteousness-light
Perfecting our masterpieces by His leading.

With abundant supply of provisions’ bounty
The God of heaven prospers us in life building
As we reach-out to the lost in His upholding
Bringing them to His radiant wisdom’s certainty.

Midst varied besetting rigorous challenges   
Coupled with tribulation for service-treading
The God of heaven prospers us in life building
Affirming us our labour’s heavenly wages.

In the crucible of scraping shovels’ girding
We cease not to teach and mentor through the Lord’s grace
Assured that His power is faith's foundation-brace
The God of heaven prospers us in life building.

*Nehemiah 2:20 Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build.

Enclosed rhyme with modified “quatern”
