Reality

Departing this life is a certainty, it stares you in the face.
It’s appointed unto man once to die, so this is not our home to stay.
When your allotted time is up, you will go with Him who is the way.
It’s not in dying that you should fear,
Paul said, to die is to gain, I believe just what he said,
If you don’t know the Lord and you’ve never made it right,
No matter when you call, He’s ready to come in.
Invite him in your heart today, don’t wait or procrastinate.
So whether you are dead or alive, when Jesus comes again,

Sparkling Gold

The Lord said, “Come drink, although the water tastes bitter. Drink when you are thirsty and dry. Drink when you are heavily burdened. Come, don’t be denied. Drink for the water gets sweeter the closer you get to the cross. You ask for much. Much is given, but you must pick up my cross. Just as the potter molded and remade his vessel, I am shaping and remolding you. For I must reconstruct your foundation, that your heart may be found pure and true.”
He picked up this broken vessel and began to do a work. He peeled and scraped and polished. Oh, I felt so hurt! Just when I thought he had finished, He picked up this vessel again. He said, “No, there is still something lacking, I need to go back again.”
Although I grew faint and weary, sometimes almost gave up, I knew it was for my making. I had to drink the bitter cup. Oh, how I struggled and trembled, just the thought of the pain. Just when I thought I had made it, I had to go back again.
This time He was tuning this vessel, as a master with his violin. He began to smooth out rough edges. I began to really know Him. After many days He said, “Come, drink of the new water. Come drink of the new wine at the well. Come, drink in the Holy Spirit, now that you have drunk, be fed”.
He held up this vessel that was broken, this piece of clay He made whole. He said, “Child, you are precious, precious as sparkling gold.

Who Could Imagine A King

God put time into motion. He began the universe. He created the heavens and the earth. The earth He spun on its axis. He flung the stars in the heavens. In one hand he held the sun, in the other He held the moon. (Genesis 1:1, 2:1)
The God of all creation came down, and stripped himself of the glory of His creation. In the form of man, He allowed himself to become man. He formed himself in Mary’s womb, and became a natural man.
All the heavens proclaimed in the aspiring greatness of His event that saved a dying world from sin. The Stars shone bright. The angels sang, to celebrate His birth.
In proclamation of His glory, divine intervention and The Holy Spirit acknowledge His presence. The earth moved and cried out, who could imagine? A King! (Luke 2:11, 3:22)
In praise and expectation, the cry echoed through the years. Thoughts of the manifestation of His glory touched my soul, and my soul soars into heavenly places.

From the child’s eye. . .

I am thankful for my mother even though I have no brother. I am thankful for food even though I am not rude. I am thankful for my teacher even though she is not a preacher. I am thankful for my friends even though they do not blend. (Psalm 92:1-2)
Forgive me for I know not what I do. I Know this time I’m learning Lord to cry out to you. Forgive me for I have been so wrong, when I ran away not knowing what to say. Show me how to be more patient in what you want me to do and the things you want me to be. Forgive me Lord. Make my way.
