James Gist Ii Poem
Another year has come and another birthday has arrived
I am 22 and man it feels good to be alive
Now a days with hurricanes and minimum wage
I see why it is hard to be alive
But I'm a junior in college
Trying to make it out so I can have something to give
Give what?
Is the question everybody asks me
I tell them a chance to see
How you go from a struggling student
To an all time role model or a masterpiece
At least I have a dream so you know it wont be the end of me
This chapter of my life
Will be closed by next fall
But with the transition from rags to riches it will be noted
that I must have given my all

James Gist Ii Poem
One night I prayed one of the most sincere prayers I have ever prayed
God was looking down at me and he heard everyword I had to say
My prayer was to meet that special someone in my life who I could one day call
my wife
My Heavenly Father did answer my prayer because not to long after, I prayed God
had her near
As I think back to that night my eyes begin to tear
My angel on earth came true and she did appear
Wow God moves so fast
His unlimited amount of grace just lasts and lasts
Everything I want in a woman he has given me
Beauty, grace, compasion, trust, love, strength, courage, understanding, saved,
and holy ghost filled
Thank you Lord for your will
No one else compares to her
She is my blessing from above
My Nitabug, soft and pure as a white dove
I am deeply in love with her
Never will I loose this love for her in my heart
I dont ever want to grow apart from her
Nitabug is always on my mind and heart
Without her here by myside
My life would be dark and lonely, that truely is no lie
God brought us together
And together we will stay
Our marriage will be centered under God
He is everlasting
No doubt He will bless our coming together
Nitabug is my destiny and the rest of it will be fulfilled as we grow older
Lord thank you for sending Nitabug in my life because now I have decency and
order

It comes and goes
it is long and short
good and bad
what is so special about it
what is the purpose
for those who have none
what is the purpose
for those who have one
what is the world
going to do with it
what am I going
to do with it
stay tuned
to this new chapter
in my life
so you can see and feel
the true meaning of Life

James Gist Ii Poem
I must say, though I have not met you yet:
the vision of you is shown to me everynight
In my thoughts I see and feel you very fluently,
your personality open for all discussion,
Your heart is filled with rhythm of joy and love
Your spirit free as a lioness on the Sarengeti
Mentally the strongest,
Two united as one is what I long for
The dream that will one day come to life
The diamond in my eye and the crown on my head;
My wife,lover,and friend,
The lady I can come to for understanding
One day we will finally meet up and this will all take place,
To my unknown lady wherever you are
You are my everything and my bright and morning star,
The reflection of us will be formed on love
God as the center of our love,
Unknown Lady you mean the world to me,
It is my destiny
When we become one it will be for eternity

James Gist Ii Poem
A new day, a new view, a new way of thinking, a new way of knowing, and a new
way of finding the answers to the questions that are always asked
The enemy will try and bring up hard times from the past
Will you allow it to affect you so fast?
Rebuke the demons, the adversary, satan, or the devil
Whatever you want to call this evil is up to you
Let God fight your battle with satan so you can do what you have to do
Is this the truth? Yeah it really is the truth
I can also show and give you the proof
I know what the Lord has done for me
He wakes me up so I can have another chance to see
A chance to feel His presence all over me
You can't get that feeling with Muhammad or Alah!
Really, to be honest with you, that stuff just sounds like
blah blah blah blah
Oh no Rock! don't talk about another religion
Why not? It's my opinion
i am just being real and letting you know how I'm living
Jesus is real to me and there is nobody like Him
Anybody disagree? Well that is on them
As for me and my house,which is my temple
I will serve the Lord and bless his name without them
Can we all just get along?
I asked that question all the time
Especially when I turn on the news and see death and crime
The world feeds off of negativity,shame, and a false mind
It is up to the real people to tell the truth so noone would be left behind
I got to make sure that I am not blind trying to lead the bilnd
So I rely on Christ to renew my spirit and mind
What are you looking for?
The answer is in the Word, made flesh, to all and for all mankind

James Gist Ii Poem
Sometimes only when you look in the mirror
will you see yourself on the outside
But what about the inside? How do you
check to make sure your spirit and soul is right?
Who can you go to in order to gain that insight?
I know of one person and he really will reveal it to you
if only you will believe and be faithful in Him
Who is He?
He is Jesus Christ
The one person who payed the ultimate price
for you and I to have life
I know that may sound funny to some but for those who know him,
understand that through Christ Jesus we can do all things
We also know that he is the reason for the season
How do you get to know the Man you might ask?
Realize that your life is meaningless,
believe that He died for you,
and that He got up in three days with all power for you
It's really not that hard
Requires no money, no check, or debit card
just requires you and an open heart to recieve
what He has for you
will you get to know Jesus?

James Gist Ii Poem
Almighty God, what have I done
In my life you are number one
If I know that, then why have I sinned against You and your Son
I allowed the gate of my mind to be open
and influenced by Satan
Now I am on my knees praying unto you for redemption
Rid me of this turmoil O Lord
Forgive me for falling by the waste side
Forgive me for not allowing you to live through me everyday
Renew me O Lord from the inside out
Pour out your anointing on me
so I can do your work
None of me but all of you Father
I decrease so You may increase in my life this day
Thank you for never leaving me
Thank you for restoring me
Thank you for my life because for You I live and for You I die
That is why I will give you glory until the end of my time
Amen

James Gist Ii Poem
This word is used so loosely everyday,
but do we know about true love?
I believe it comes with experience,
common sense, and trust
It is something all of us should keep in our heart
How does the word love appeal to you?
Love without you it is hard on myside of the world
To learn and have love is worth more than diamonds and pearls
