I entered life tabula rasa,
a spiritual being, a blank slate,
my life unpainted on a piece of masa
with no ego to sate.
But my ego grew before I knew
how spirit bends when shadows speak;
it found the doubts I clung to, too,
weakening me, unable to spiritually seek.
It shrouded the signals the spirit sends
the mercies placed at every hand~
the rainbow the sunshine bends,
the blue-violet dusk that glorifies the land.
And here’s the truth I long denied:
a tainted picture ego did draw,
and I’m the one who lets its shadow dwell inside
until at my self-esteem it did gnaw.
So now I walk the inner way~
crucifying the ego’s strength and claim.
For God’s guidance I doth pray,
vowing, “Ego, thy shall no longer my spirit defame!”
Although ego’s voice still tries to rise,
I greet it with a pilgrim’s grace
knowing it’s my worst enemy who wears many a disguise.
Now I’m a braver, enlightened soul finding its place.

in a world full of delusion???
Awaken in shock, of the darkness;
Being in a state of confusion or disorder:
Emotions passions flood my mind and heart
Variable processes, day N night thus…
Light in Dark, with many unpredictable his-story recorders;
Changes or reversals;
Vertigo my friend;
My brain is fishing, yet I haven’t caught a thing;
Put aside the pain of past failures";
I am I be a spiritual being, in this “worldly;
Phycholist bookmark me showed a topsy-turvy;
In or into a state of confusion or disorder;

I OPENED A DOOR IN THE UNIVERSE
ENTERING "TIME THROUGHOUT TIME".
I WAS "WITNESSING AN OBSERVATION"OF
"EONS OF RECOLLECTIONS" ,
"ESOTERIC ANCIENT WISDOM" AND
THE UNDERSTANDING OF TIME ITSELF.
ENDLESS MOMENTS OF PAST ,
PRESENT AND FUTURE,
OVERLAPPING ONE ANOTHER WITH
"MULTIPLE DIMENTIONS OF PURE
EXSISTANCE"
INTRICATELY WOVEN TOGETHER
WITH MULTIPLE FREQUENCIES
OF TIME ITSELF , ADORNED WITH
A FASCINATINGLY ATTRACTIVE
"SPECTRUM OF EXISTENCE".
MY THOUGHTS WERE ENDLESS .
BUT THE VISION WAS CLEAR.
THE PRE EXISTENCE OF LIFE IS TIME.
A FREQUENCY OF LIGHT PASSING
THROUGH THE FREQUENCY OF TIME
CREATING AND REFLECTING AN
IMAGE OF THE SPIRITUAL BEING
REPRESENTING A MOMENT OF
EXSISTANCE .
WE ARE REPRESENTATIVES OF A
LIMITED "CAPACITY OF TIME".
EXISTENTIAL BEINGS SHAPING
THE EXSISTANCE OF TIME .
GUIDING THE FREQUENCY OF LIGHT
THROUGH THIS UNIVERSE LEADING
THE WAY AND IN SEARCH OF THE
"SPIRITUAL MEANING OF
CONSCIOUSNESS".
MEANING , "BEINGS AND BEAST
ARE THE REASON FOR TIME".
AND "TIME IS THE REASON
FOR OUR EXSISTANCE."

Like a time bomb ready to explode
What be a man except what is washed away
Like a wave beats the ocean sands
Change of time can change whole man
Soul in search of itself what does it see
Despair of a journey that makes his strength
Or the demise of life he finds his grave
It is of the heart beats our breath
Spiritual being like all species with purpose
What is beauty that love does not exist
What is a man if not themselves thrive to be
Is one not dead in their depths darkness appears
Battle of good vs evil which you choose
Lost in misty fog, what light be your inspiration
Belief to his existence finds trouble trails
But he gives not up his strive to breathe
Reaching in, ticking man; just a second of a gasp
Awakening, sea of stars filled with dreams
Light on the waters beneath moonlight beam
Heavens open door shinning light from within
Ti cerco, watching behind dark eyes sleeping
Jesus keep me near the cross my cries
I'm just a man whose time is ticking away
Some folks think of themselves as humans searching for a spiritual awakening when the fact is that you are a spiritual being, attempting to cope with a human awakening.
Seeing oneself from a perspective of the spirit within will help you remember why and what you came here to begin creating.
In a higher dimension, there exists no time, nor darkness, nothing is physical or corporeal, and those that reside there are entities of light.
In reality, there is no time but only a construct of human measurement, known as clocks separating day from night.
Realms of higher frequency, greater sensitivity, and a density of colors unseen by humans are all around us.
Understanding that you are much more than you see in the mirror is the beginning of self-trust.

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2024©
Life is a living testimony; to God and His infinite Love;
I witness daily His guidance near; Heaven sent from realms above. I am truly greatful and truly blessed; for fear I know not; signs of supernatural protection; show me I am not forgot. I also know while on the path, of what God's planned for me; there's no such thing as failure in fulfilling destiny. I know that God can hear my prayers; His replies are peaceful and instant; and never let me feel as though they're coming from a distance; all around me everyday; the beauty of God's creation; and the privilege of knowing Him, through the Ultimate gift of Salvation; Jesus came and died for us; that we may know the truth; I endeavour to live my life as a spiritual being of proof. Proof that we are not alone; proof that God is the Father; proof that when life leaves this realm, eternity is ever after. I want to use my freewill to honour and praise God's glory; Greeted by the Most High when get to the end of my story.
The sun aligning perfectly behind the moon creates an eclipse which renders the moon visually brilliant red. It is said this opens a path to our spiritual being and hidden layers of our emotions. We then can explore our rage, shame, and grief. (Our darker side). - The poet.
Don’t go out tonight, something’s not all right.
Trouble is on its way, dark emotions will be at play.
Wild anger takes the stage, in the form of my rage.
In my forlorn grief, only I have belief.
The sun lights the flame, to ignite my shame.
Red moon rising. It’s not surprising.
Hidden layers of my emotions, put aside my devotions.
Each spiritual aspect, only I can reject.
The blood moon, to open the path soon.
To take me to the darker side, no need for me to hide.
It chills me to the fingertips. Sun behind the moon eclipse.
My emotions I am analyzing, as the red moon is rising.
Observing Earth
Look up
Embrace
I see confusion and unrest
No understanding all contest
No togetherness
I sit high being the witness
The Earth needs wisdom
It comes from the Kingdom
It seems Earth wants to prove
Things are not going smooth
The Earth doesn’t seem to understand
Heaven controls the land
It’s not what you say, but what you do
Spiritual being pursue
There are Earth assignments to fulfill
All under Heaven’s will
The Earth seems to wonder
They must look yonder
There is a must in shall
Stands for all
Heaven’s call
One day being an hour
Earth walks around being sour
Hour after hour
The time will come
You feel lonesome
Heaven is it
The perfect fit
Put on the full armor
Heaven will always be it
Spiritual Fashion fit
Precise
Heaven’s eye
Being Thy
Bite taken out of the negative fight
Darkness into the marvelous light
Being tough was reversed in out
Replaced with everyday spiritual while moving about
Spiritual Gangs are now spiritual brothers
Inspiring words

The motto, “Spiritual Brothers Outtake. Surround and be found. Give thanks and let praise be the sound”
Spiritual gangs with a word for you

Men Of Faith
Going the length
There days were rough and tough
The spiritual brothers finally said enough

Goodness in heart with appreciation on high
The reason they have an eye on Thy
From beginning to end

Spiritual Gangsters all the way

Before there was time, there was God.
Before there was light, there was God.
Before there was anything, there was God.
God Himself is The Self-existent One.
The only Self-existent Light is God Himself.
In Him is no darkness, nor ever has there been
any darkness connected or associated with God.
There was a time when the world was void of physical light,
and total physical darkness covered the face of the deep.
It was in this state of 'nothingness' that God, being the
only light, broke the silence and said,
"LET THERE BE LIGHT".
From the time that God, The Self-existent One,
spoke light into existence, the universe has never
again been without light. The Self-existent Light
could be termed an attribute of The Self-existent
One who caused the sun, moon, and stars to light up
our physical world. That same Eternal God, through
Christ lights up our spiritual being when we believe
and put our faith and trust in him.

Focus

One step forward
Three steps back
Sometimes it feels
Like your life is off track
Going nowhere
Floating in the void
You get confused
Confidence destroyed
But, have hope and faith
All is not lost
Sometimes we have to pause
And let our soul catch up
In these busy times
Our spiritual being is tested
We often lose the focus
Of what is necessary
We don't need
Much to thrive
We need love and kindness
We need to focus on our light
Embrace your divinity
Go within and believe
It won't be long, and
You'll find yourself free
One step forward
Three steps into the light
You'll fly into the Universe
Become a star bright

I want to be synthesis,
be thesis...
I want to feel a lot
a sum, but being one...
Being of the ground and the air
be from the sky and be from the sea
to be, crazy higid... mentally sane
corpore sano
lex sed lexis...
be a dreamed metaphor,
live pleonasm,
active particle of the universe,
towards the infinity of God...
be of love forever
To be a totally spiritual being... !
