To the ends of the Earth let us go
Where the river of the Gospel will flow
Evil’s allowed to grow tall
So one day it may fall
God’s plans are much wiser than we know
The banquet is ready: Invite!
Don’t ignore Christ’s call or the Light
Excuses we defend
Many lost in the end
Fear God and serve with all your mind
By faith and through Christ we are led
To the Kingdom where all will be fed
Miss the train, miss your place
So respond to God’s grace
By His call we are raised from the dead
So to all who’s minds begin to swell
Remember what’s in Dante’s Hell
Think you’ve got it made
Don’t be throwing shade
Over the soul who has said it is well
So to the ends of the Earth
Don’t shirk or skirt the birth
A birth that is worth
More than gold in this purse
So don’t quibble about “Who’s on first?”

Our lives are always under observation,
by those who take refuge within our shadow.
We should be God's witness without cessation,
and light should shine brightly not merely a glow.

Lord, it isn’t words I say
but actions that I do.
That might cause another
to train thoughts toward you.
Help me to always be sincere
without intent to misguide.
Let my witness you’ve given
be the place I’ll abide.
For your word has told me
to let my light shine.
I can plant seed and water
but the harvest remains thine.
As you have blessed me materially
I’ll bless another in need.
Lord Use my life to help one
to your word to concede.
Paying it forward is such a blessing for me.
I love it !!!

Sometimes from our simplest act of serving,
we influence others within the sound of voice.
We should never question whether deserving,
Because God didn’t cede any man that choice.
Sometimes our words
Have a great impact on the life of another.

Matthew 25:40
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
Letting Go and Calm Witnessing
When U have no solution
You tried it all; Fate Insists you fall. You no longer stand tall
Such moments come often
We try to forget the falls - feeling nothing, helps find your nobodyness
If we hold up a "failure at Solution"
That moment is a mix of doing nothing AND "doing along" with the Universe
When you felt nobody cares (loss of attention)
That mix of nobody with everybody, Multiverse
Is deep insight: becoming nobody makes us everybody with Universe
BACKGROUND: I was a Hindu as one born into such a family in South Africa may be a Hindu, away from India. This meditation is similar in the impetus to Jesus's frequent TWIST of OPPOSITES in the New Testament. The high will be brought low; the meek shall inherit the earth - or more; dying is the way to real living: mainly Matthew 5, 6, 7 or The Sermon on the Mount.
Let us cite a few examples from Paul: I am strong when I am weak; I can do nothing but in Christ I can do anything and everything --
2 Corinthians 12:10 and 2 Corinthians (Epistle) 4:7.
Shalom, shalom to Great Harrys & Marys, Vijays & Ordinarys. LuvYa
Holiday Witnessing
Written: by Miracle Man
October 24, 2021
This holiday season, there's those who’ll need me,
In prayer, I’ll ask God, what my mission might be.
God has a mission, for each and every being,
But Gods divine plan, lies beyond our seeing.
Give me a desire to speak, where ever you send,
For God you’re the master of the violent wind.
Just give me opportunities, for me to witness,
place those in my path, who can’t question my fitness.
Lord, I'll let my light shine so that others might see,
that it's all about You and never about me.
Thoughts from Brother Jays morning sermon
Tranquil presence
inner sentience
in the current
omnipresent
Thought ripple
in spiralling circles
orbiting our attention
entrapment in stagnation
Step by step and layer by layer
veils of delusion we uncover
feeding off our life force
fuelling ferality coarse
Discarding half measure
we vaporise under bliss cover
to become the void of emptiness
divine entwined in the sea of oneness

I
stared as
she lay on
her side struggling
to accomplish what nature demanded.
I was seven--wide-eyed and curious.
She was straining.
Then out came
a small
wet
glob--
and four
more! Mama
Kitty cleaned her
babies lovingly. What a happy day!

We're Witnessing a Travesty
By Franklin Price
9/13/2016
We're witnessing a travesty
In congress on this day
They've done it many times before
Must always have their say
A hearing on the server
That was used by Hillary
The FBI resolved it
Congress will not let it be
Congress is wasting money
It's not budgeted to spend
It's a judiciary decision
To resolve it in the end
Congress hasn't done their job
For many many years
They're not the judge and jury
The Constitution makes that clear
All the witnesses plead the fifth
Was the greatest thing to see
The hearing's going nowhere
Which is where it ought to be
Whether or not corruption
Brought the hearing to the floor
Next time take it to the courts
And not to Congress any more
passive agression
schizoid fantasy
she seemed patient
like green earth
quiet and withdrawn
like a hermit
interjection of thoughts
projection of wants
red wine
we are walking
white sand spreading
music of the heightening
waves capsizing
the fortress of black
rock
distorted emotions
conversion of sublimed
lust
we are uniting
union of ecstasy
blessed
witnessing mermaids
Not even Wild horses can keep me away
From what I need to tell everyone today
Come Spread God’s Word across the land
Do it now for Time is at hand
I’ve written a poem
Accepting Christ
I’ve already did this
Long time ago in my life
I want others to know
How to be born-again
Before it’s to late
In all life comes to an end
So come to Jesus Christ
Ask for forgiveness of your sins
Become Born-again
Receive Eternal life with Him
Our Lord Our Savior Jesus Christ
Woman of God
Witnessing for Christ
In hopes to Save Souls
Through Our Savior
Jesus Christ
They too.. can obtain
Eternal Life
Through God's Divine Light
Speaking words of Faith
With Tender Loving care..
Spreading Truth.. Everywhere
Of God's Eternal Gift
Of His Glorious Love...
Eternal Salvation
With Your Inspirational Love
Encouraging Words
Faithfilled Prayers
Day by day..
Showing You care
God guides your way
Shining God's Beautiful Light
Woman Witness for Christ
Beautiful Treasures
God's Love Imprinted
Designed within Your Heart
In hopes other's become a part
Unity.. body of Christ
Becoming born-again
Saving Souls.. to obtain Eternal Life
With Our Savior.. Jesus Christ
Keep Your heart a-Glow
In hopes others come to know
Through Jesus Christ..
God's Glorious Love.. Over Flows
Gift of Grace.. Salvation
Praise God.. in all we do..
Salvation is given for me and You..
Walking down sidewalk
Watching cars pass by and by
Looks from side to side
In dismay looks down
Now hating every roadster
Death smears on one tire
There,
upon the edge of fantasy,
it seems,
she stands
looking out
over the placid lake.
I stand,
just watching her
and taking in
the magnificence
of her fitting with nature
as beauty becomes
one.
Be it a dream
or be it real,
I pray this scene
never leaves
my eyes
nor my mind.
