Premium MemberLove Requires Forgiveness--A Reminder to Myself



At times, you failed your family, yourself,
and God. Your conscience wouldn't quiet down
until you said, "I'm sorry. Could you please
forgive me?" All said "yes," but still you felt
remaining guilt you couldn't rise above.

You couldn't comprehend your frame of mind,
the feeling that--no matter how you tried--
you couldn't do enough to make amends.
You prayed to find the

Premium MemberGod Always Requires Obedience - 1 Samuel 15: 22-23

God speaks in His word of many things
but there's one word that always repeats
showing the importance God has for it
obedience is that word He loves to greet

God is delighted when we obey Him
for obedience glorifies His mighty name
no amount of sacrifices will suffice
a humble obedient saint is His aim

God hates sin like nothing else
for disobedience

Premium MemberLove Requires No Thought

A heart filled with love forgives

           what an empty one would not,

for love's a knee-jerk reaction

           that requires no thought.

Premium MemberFreedom Requires Peace

Ecological relationship
forms theological minds
and ego-rational hearts,
both omnipresently transcendent
and intimately political;

Both inhale enlightening
and exhale empowering

Earth justice
from interdependent EarthTribe peace
toward cooperatively invested freedoms
for compassion
both right hemisphere inclusive feelings
and left hemisphere deductive thoughts,
reductive-inductive dialogue;

Both ecosystemic Beauty
and ego-recentering Truths;

Multiculturally co-passionate,
non-violently communal,
restoring theological peace
as ecologically balanced justice

Where life becomes peaceful medication
love is freedom's EarthSoul meditation.

Premium MemberSuccess Requires Patience

Success Requires Patience
Written: by Miracle Man
12-19-2019

Unless patience is in your recipe,
you’re shy the main ingredient.
The seed of success won’t sprout,
without patience and being obedient.

First a tree, then finally an orchard,
A dream started with a single seed.
But the seed of success didn’t sprout,
without labor to supply it’s need.

“if you want a place in the sun,
you’ve got

Premium MemberLife Requires a Moment of Tranquility

AN IRRITATING BUMBLE BEE
INSISTED ON RUNNING INTO ME.
TRYING MY PATIENCE
OR SO IT SEEM.
I TRIED TO IGNORE
FOR I WAS TRYING TO DREAM.

I OPENED MY EYES 
TO A CLEAR BLUE SKY.
POLITELY ASKED 
THE QUESTION WHY.
AROUND IN CIRCLES
HE CONTINUED TO FLY.

HE FLEXED HIS WINGS
AS IF HE HAD POWER.
I INHALED THE FRAGRANCE 
OF WILD FLOWERS.
WENT BACK TO SLEEP
FOR ANOTHER

Requires Much More

Requires much more of me 
Than is required usually
Not at all used to being 
Required to do anything 
Outside of my comfort zone
Glad that this will only 
Last a short time 
I Will be glad to get 
Back to normalcy
Once again once the 
New school year begins

Love Requires Sacrifice

Would you rather me lie? Not tell you the truth?,
Tell me,,,,is that really loving you?,
If I keep these things from you I would be lying to you,
How much could I love you if I just ignored the truth?,
Should I play along, not care enough to say?,
I'm sorry to say love doesn't work that way,,,,,
Would you

Faith Requires Both the Rod and the Staff

Faith requires both the rod and the staff to get salvation;
whoever fails in this quest will experience much tribulation.
Try to climb the rockiest mountain, you have ever seen
without the rod, you will fall into the pit.
Try to live without God, and never lean
on his staff, your feet will get weak and make you slip.

Living Requires Courage

Success
is not easy
you try

Trying
unsuccessful
you fail

Failing
you stop to dream
hope lost

Losing
you give up life
and stop

Stopping
life slips away
slowly

Slowing
time pass you by
it moves

Moving
fast with the flow
of life

Living
requires courage
to bear

Bearing
Life's challenges
that come

Coming
with each new day
you live
