Zealots Speak

Zealots, one by one, with steadfast passion
         serving God as Master
      in enthusiastic fashion -
                     His broadcaster.

Zebulon’s tribe pardoned for insurgence
          became clear spokesmen yet;
      famous mariners and merchants
                    with God’s mindset.
      
Old Testament prophet Zephaniah
          foretold deportation
      of God’s hope for the Messiah - 
                    chosen nation.

Old Zacharias, priest in the temple,
           doubted in disbelief,
      lost his speech; really simple -
                    he caused God grief.

There was Zebedee, busy fisherman,
          father of James and John,
loosed his sons, new mission began
                    their anchors drawn.

Simon the Zealot, unsung disciple
          attentive, observant,
     zealous for Jesus, not idle
                    as His servant.

Zealots, one and all, somewhat imperfect
          serving their Savior God.
     Righteous, they were voices He picked
                    to give Him laud.

Forgive Adedokun A YoungJay's Days




Fill his life's pleasure with loyal friends
Where faith that lies in them never ends
Forgive the snitch among them like Judas
Warning for the yet to come without bias
Which sanction a force need to verily do blends 
With you like Isrealites heeds after captive words of Zacharias 

A year in bit breathing of trust and love
A touchy ordeal with peace thereof
Initiating dreadful zone into a calm 
Will of devil buried far the come of salaam
You are and have been found a belove 
When exactly spirit of God; evils He becalm

His friendship; add value, do keep thy vow
Keep up the momentum of your loyal bow
Forget the mountain top far your reach
While He works on all forces filming to impeach 
The yet to receive, breakthrough will endow 
Loving gent of gentle soul earnestly beseech 

Lucky am I to have you among friends for life
You guide and inspire me when in strife
To win struggles over, to renew nights 
And keep up with mornings in good fights
Your loyal friend; best friend be a good wife
Amen to make sure you got to live in lights 

No money can buy you that
Prayer will try to help combat
Wife doesn't fall from the sky
When you find one, sleep beauty if it's shy
Good life doesn't grow in an open fields
Troubling care fix crisis to cheerful yields

Age of hell
Live well
Stay healthy
Moves; define yours stealthy

Happy glorious day
Have wonderful experience
Mean every of your say 
Today that you have His audience

Boss, enjoy
Best wishes from your boy.

One is a nameless ANGEL who appeared to the shepherds.
He was later accompanied by a host of other nameless ANGELS.
Another ANGEL appeared to Joseph on three different occasions.
The first ANGELIC appearance to Joseph was before the birth of Jesus.
Secondly, Joseph was warned by the ANGEL to flee to Egypt to save
the life of Jesus. Thirdly, the ANGEL commanded Joseph to return to
Judea because it was then safe to do so.  I feel certain that all ANGELS
have names, but to us nearly all are nameless.

Although Gabriel and Michael are well-known ANGELS, all ANGELS
have responsibilities and important jobs to perform. Gabriel was assigned
to the Virgin Mary and also to Zacharias. We don't know why, but the wise
men were led, not by ANGELS, but by a star, and later communicated to,
not by ANGELS, but in their dream. May we mortals have no vote in the ways
and means of God's communicative methods. May God speak to us in His own way.  May this Christmas ring loudly with the voice of God through Christ.

Premium Member Ode to the First Octant

Eating my oatmeal, sipping my tea, 
“Where”, I wondered, “should I stroll today?
I won’t be rash and decide in a flash.
There are choices to carefully weigh”.

“Left/Right, Up/Down, and Forward/Back - 
There are but three choices to be made.
I will be smart and think like Descartes.
Then, I can begin my promenade.”

3D was an art, before Descartes
And anti-left, an ancient bias,
Around how to choose which hand to use,  
Dating to days of Zacharias. 

“Left” is a direction long bad-mouthed. 
People said it was wrong, and not “RIGHT”. 
Is it deft to choose not to go left,
Or is going left just as upRIGHT?

Why does “up”, not “down”, enhance “UPright”?
To be on TOP of the list we try.   
Why not make our goal DOWN in the hole,
Instead of way up HIGH in the sky?

We would rather our heart RISE than sink.
Heaven is ABOVE, and hell, BELOW.
A hawk on patrol beats a blind mole.
So goes the story of “high” and “low”. 

Better to go UP, but harder too - 
The way old Newton would have it, see,
“If you don’t like, take a hike, ‘cuz 
We are all pulled down by gravity”.

While UP in Flanders, a mapmaker,
Aptly named Gerardus Mercator, 
Put Flanders on TOP, refusing to swap
With Australia, BELOW the equator.

Another bias, it seems to me,
Is we want to go forward - not back.
In a world sublime, it relates to time - 
Einstein said, “it’s relative, Jack”.

Both my oatmeal and tea are now gone,
And the sun has sunk low in the West.
Tomorrow, I’ll drink tea, and I’ll think 
Where to walk.   Now, I’ll have a nice rest.

Hello, world.  Be assured that I was neither Gabriel nor Michael.  Michael was not on a mission that I was aware of, and Gabriel had returned to base from his busy assignments with Zacharias and Mary.

I was a reporter for the Good News Network from the Highest Heaven.
Dr. Luke reported about me and my mission in the 2nd chapter of his book.  Though he did not identify me by name, I do have a name as do all of God’s creatures.  I know that it can be frustrating sometimes when we do good things and get little to no recognition.  I understand, but it doesn’t bother me.  It’s just that sometimes our names are not relevant or pertinent to God’s story.

Anyway, my job was to make one of the greatest announcements in the history of mankind.  On one dark night as shepherds tended their flock just outside of Bethlehem, Judah, I informed them of the good news of Jesus’ birth and gave the exact location of his whereabouts.

I felt deeply privileged and honored to be chosen for such an assignment.   As you know, I was not sent to the emperor in Rome, the king of Judea, or any of the great dignitaries.  Rather, I was sent to lowly shepherds in a field.  There again.  You never knew their names either.  They are the ones who saw me and an entire host of other angels.

O what a night it must have been for them!!  My co-workers proclaimed peace and good will in the listening ears of humble shepherds.  That’s right.  Everyday people like you and other mortals of this God-loved world.

Yes, with unknown names, we filed our report and completed our mission without a hitch.  We came upon this world’s stage, played our roles, and returned to heaven.  The rest is history. (Impersonation)12092016 cj PS
