People talk out loud about this mysterious place
Love given freely to such a hurtful race
Such gentle feelings to a power unknown
Some times what has been offered, has little shown.

Some live in fear to what could happen to them
To have such a higher love, why the problem?
Holding such guilt in living carefree
With me every moment, is where I want this love to be.

Never worry about what is ever said or done
The day I had my first child I knew it would be a Son
Each day is a play already written but never read
Knowing my life’s plan without a word even said

The journey for everyone is a complicated task
To a question you want the answer, you’ve only to ask
The result you want will lustre down from above
The ultimate goal for all is the essence of pure love

Why would people choose such pain to loose another?
In this life you may loose a son, daughter or a brother
Comfort at this time is all that can be offered out
Much more to life than this, I’ll tell you what its all about

Before your living memory you chose a set plan
It started in the beginning of your life span
Behold an endless guide than you set out in preparation
From a new home, first kiss, even death or a separation

Heaven being our real homes, earth being a school for learning 
You may chose to die young, gamble or to be high earning
Why? Is a question I’m asked to answer from time to time
But it’s easier for people to believe Jesus turned water to wine

To embrace God you must dissolve the padding around religion 
That for some can prove to be a difficult decision 
Loosing faith in the protection you thought was to care for you 
Ones’ you loose look down and wish you wasn’t so blue

To choose a path you feel is negative to you now
Makes you into a better person, but you must wonder how?
To learn from mistakes takes a developed soul
One can not be with out the other, that’s the karmic toll

Sleep easy knowing you will be with the ones you have lost
Eternal life and love with them at no extra cost
Just wait and see, you will remember this in years gone by
I will promise to meet you on the other side just to say ‘Hi’

-this Life For You-

O, One who bled and died for me,
Your death was not in vain.
Was Love that held you to Calvary's tree
while separation from your Father caused pain.

If not that You had come for me
to do what I could not on my own,
it would have been me upon that tree
and a life without You all I had known.

But I am not left to a life without You
as You rose from the dead in power.
And because You did, my life is made new
along with all that You've kept to this hour.

O, I could never repay what You've done
but I can live this life for You.
You came here for me, Eternal One;
What could You ask that I would not do ?

Premium Member Underlying Principle

They say for every event
in your life there's a reason
A broken heart? 
Unrequited love? 
The emptiness might be overwhelming
surrounded by people but you feel all alone
emotionally dead
'cause your heart's desire is out of reach 
and all u feel apt for is goodbye
no longer willing to go on 
but if u take a step back?

You'll see that you are capable of having feelings 
you might feel hurt, 
you might feel alone 
heaven knows, that’s what emotions entail 
so push through that, 
experience every emotion
embrace every moment
And when u are ready claim your life back
because satan has no right over you 
it's not through his will you have made it thus far. 
God is waiting for you to be still,
watch Him hold your hand
with the peace that only He can provide
He has not forsaken you,  
He is waiting for you to utter the words 
"I can’t do this without You"

What If?

Every time I look into your eyes
I close my eyes and you are clear as the skies

I hold your hand as I walk along the pier
Alone but hoping you feel me near

How I laugh drinking a glass of wine with you
The empty chair suggests my life is so blue

The movie we watch, cuddled up together
Reality strikes as I get up turn on the weather

We plan a trip out to visit the beach
I can see you but you’re forever out of reach

Rain falling down on our soft warm skin
To hold you forever made to feel such a sin

To think all this was what could have been true
Knowing now my whole life was meant to be with you

Gifted in life with the experiences I’ve had
All the rocky roads I’ve travelled, for that I’m glad

Even though I’ve felt untold pain through time
Feeling blessed in life that you and I are here, so sublime

So never wanting to feel this anguish again
Holding on to endless love is something I want to ascertain

Rebuilding Your Torn Down Walls

rebuilding is a part of life, it's about the ups and the downs
the good, the bad, the happy, the sad all that goes around
as life is about our experiences all that we've gone through
it's about picking up the pieces and somehow make them anew

rebuilding is sometimes costly it will always have a price
to rebuild those torn down walls that make up your life
so what has deteriorated? what do you need to re-erect?
what are those issues in your life that have had the most devastating affect?

to rebuild those torn down walls that you thought would have kept you whole
to rebuild those torn down walls that have caused you to lose control
in order to make it happen you need to re-position yourself in life
in order to make it happen you need to stand before the Lord Christ
now in the presence of the Holy Lord Our God the King of Kings
now in the presence of Our Creator who controls everything

now is the time to make it happen by overcoming opposition
now is the time to make it happen by taking up a godly position
in order to make it happen you need to possess a true faith
and no matter what the enemy attempts to do you need to concentrate
now focused on your mission with a purpose steadfast and sure
trusting that with God by your side there's nothing you can't endure

in order to rebuild those walls in your life that have been torn down
you need to stand on the word of God which is your solid ground
now is the time to overcome your fears and those things that the devil will use
to make you doubt, cause you to bow out one of his greatest tools
for the devil will huff and he will puff but he doesn't have a clue
that as a disciple of Christ he has no power over you

now is the time to wield your weapon "The Sword of the Spirit"
the most powerful ammunition with the words of God in it
rebuilding your torn down walls on the foundation that is Jesus Christ
rebuilding your torn down walls by overcoming the distractions in life
not looking left, not looking right but looking directly to the Lord
and no matter the price nor the sacrifice with Christ rebuild those walls


Are You Feeling Alone

Are you feeling alone right now
And no-one seems to care.
Before your life was full of love,
But now it seems so bare.
Are you saying within yourself,
Why should I go on,
Before my life was full of love
Now it seems all gone.
Are you feeling that no-one loves you,
And ripped apart inside
And all that you want to do
Is run away and hide.
It seems there is no way out,
And you don't know what to do.
You say right now within yourself
I think my life is through.
So let me plant this little thought
Within your heart today,
There is someone who loves you
And he is not far away.
He is the Lord Jesus,
And he gave his life for you,
And he wants to live within your heart
And restore what you once knew.
He knows what you are feeling
And all that you've been through,
So invite him in your heart today
For he really does love you.
He will never let you down,
He will be with you every day.
And when you invite him in 
His love is there to stay.

Lord I'M So Thankful

Its You, Lord, that has brought me through sickness and pain,
Even through the sunshine and the rain.
Just when I wanted to throw up my hands and turn the other way,
I was reminded that with You there will be brighter days.
So Lord, I'm so grateful and truly thankful for knowing You,
That I have decided no matter what I encounter 
Every day of my life that You will bring me through.
Lord I'm so thankful, Lord I'm so thankful, 
Lord I'm so thankful, I can't say it enough,
Even though sometimes the road gets rough.
No matter what comes my way or what others say,
I'm so thankful to the Lord, for He's in my life to stay.

Life and Lessons

When your growing you learn and are eager to learn.
When you are a teen you think you know it all.
When you grow up you wonder what you were ever thinking during those teen years.
Then you get older and you pray you will remember the day.
Yet somewhere deep within it is kept safe and all still there.
The things you learned, said, did.
Cherished memories, your ups, downs and all arounds.
Triumphs to tragedies, love you have, loves you lost.
An inventory of our most cherished possessions.
Your life flashes like a slide show right before your eyes.
You see just what you have and are thankful for what you have got.
You learn your life has been good from the lessons you've been taught.

Restoration

Co-written with my good friend Linda-Marie Bariana**

In the New Year with love and good cheer,
endear the great future plan.
To the knowledge of self, to embrace God’s great wealth,
the health of a total life span.

With new resolutions and lofty conclusions,
intrusions into life seem maligned.
With firm application, sincere supplication,
dedication to God’s roadway defined.

Obtaining levels higher with fervent desire,
aspire to create newer dreams.
Obtaining these notions with ardent emotions,
devotion to God’s perfect themes.

In the New Year this all becomes clear,
His now and great future plan.
To all who will hear, this plan becomes dear,
the total restoration of man.

No longer hiding within subtle entrapments of sin,
any moment begins this new life.
The more thoughts harmonize, the more we realize
freedom from the strongholds of strife.

There awaits so much more with God’s Treasures in store,
so much more not even known.
But what is desired can surely be acquired
in a life where we are His own.
