Awesome

How awesome are You, Lord
That You could create me
That inside every person is a soul
That longs to know You

How awesome is it now
That You made the heavens
The big & the small,
The planets & the stars.

How phenomenal that You took the care
To install in me a person
To create me like no other,
To want to know me.

How cool is it that I can sit
Outside and look around
And see the things that You created
With Your own hands.

How wondrous the world around
That You made long before me,
And yet you planned out my whole life
At the same time.

How terrific that You love me so much
When I defy & betray You,
When I am most surely among
The most fragile of Your creations.

It IS phenomenal that You can care so much
About just one little person
I am no more than a speck
In the wonders of Your universe.

Thank You so much that You are here
That You haven't abandoned us here
Even though we cave into bad things
And disobey Your will.

You still stick around,
And help us through,
It is amazing how much
that means.

come out of the shadows
come out of the dark cloud
into light of day
break through the silence
into loud joyous praise

Lord Jesus another day
another chance another moment
your mercy and grace are new
the sun is rising don't let it slip away

dreamers die


two dreamers died tonight
unkindled by fear;doubt
unknowing&uncertainties
emotions reaching and
heartsongs cryingout
drownedout blankedout

in the mystery of each others
flower soul and celestial
longing separated as to
salvage battered
smiles

if only between Fingertip’s ends
and lament’s Whispers
could the two dreamers
see
they dream the same
dream

I need Thee everyday Lord

I need you everyday,every second
Every hope slayed,any time I'm sickened..with sins
See,my Lord is not sickened..with me
Even when I make him second
He got me singing Repent Repent,like his forerunner,his cousin(John the Baptist)
The Lord of all the Lord of Glory
The Lord of Love the Lord who lived for me
The Lord of all the Lord of Glory
The lord of Love the Lord who died for me
He took my cross he took my pain
he took my heart he took my shame
He took my life he took my grave
He took away my darkness he brought light to my face
He took away my unbelief he gave me faith
He took away my dead works he gave me grace

If stars can only shine in the dark
Then I guess I should keep my head up when im stuck in fire
In spite of,my sins the Lord is Gracious so I'm inspired
What a great salvation that can't expire!
Yes I fall hard like hard like autumn
Yes sometimes I bite the apple hard like Adam
Grace and Mercy are beautiful,Thank God I hav em
I'm bruised but not broken,Thank God I know him!
He cleaned me with his blood and clothed me in white
Yes he clothed me in white and uncovered the veil like we married
New name,new home,new love,the old me is buried
But
I'm still wretched, ,I drink down sin like it's water
Sin is death water
My soul yearns for living water
I speak of my lord,My soul thirsts for Christ
He's changed my desire so I live to obey my thirst like sprite

To God be the Glory..

sleepy waves vanish in

one thing i hope for
that i wonder
is so simple
yet so necessary

part of our design
that we would hope
to make a difference
at some point

to find that our existance
that my being here
mattered in the end
even though it shouldn't

but yet it did
the question i ask
the thing i wonder
did i make a difference

if so simple
of reality
the missing pieces
to fill the hole

to create once more
to make whole
find that i am alive
with joy, and peace inside
to be sastified

with moments
just like this
with breath of air
that fills my chest

Your love transcends all time and space
You'd rend the heavens to touch this place
my spirit can't contain it

my heart is overwhelmed within
to hear the voice of Him,
the voice of my Beloved!

Help me be ready
I'm quietly waiting
in earnest expectation for the day

Preparing as a bride
I have fixed my eyes
not turning to the left or to the right

I don't want to be
like the foolish ones
out of oil, L-rd ;-)
when You come

Even so come quickly!
Oh Mighty One, Valliant King!
Just beyond the edge of eternity

the trumpet sounds and every knee bows
My beloved's on His way for me!

Here is a Poem (one more)


Love Reign

Love rain,
reign on me.

Unfeigned Love,
from the tree of life tree.

Fruit from that tree,
and that love rain reign.

Keeps my soul nourished and free
from the Pain , pain, pain.

Bless you Lord Jesus.

Fear of God

You are my creator
with your lips you created everything
you are everywhere at once
you know everything
time doesn't pertain to you
my mind can't comprehend

sometimes I forget this
I forget what it is to be in awe
of who you are
though I can't comprehend all that you are
all that is you....
that with a single word u could cause the end or a begining

all of this... I can't imagine...
that is you...
fear of you... fear of what you think
about what I do...
but at the same time that your love is boundless
you onlyu wish to bless me and want the best for me

Lord you are that which is and was
Lord Jesus you are everything I could hope for
or want or need
What is there more than riches
when I have you
no price could be paid....

you offer it freely
I turned away
your arms are wide open
I turned away

I was lost and too blind to see
that which you offered me
is life more than I could dream
Because its a life with you

you are the beginnning and the end
you know every word I say
before its even said
you know every hair on my head
you know every path that I will tread
its you who never leaves in the end you stay

you were right there
when I hit the rocky bottom
there to help me up again
you never wanted it this way
but I was the one who let it happen


your love for me is boundless
I have yet to comprehend
your love for me is amazing
it blows me away more everyday



just saw fireproof.... (cool movie)

Mercy why is it that men takes you for granted?
Mercy why is it that men misunderstand your grace?
You sit with the nobles and dine with the King
The King calls you honey; why men calls you weak?

When honey gives bread to the hungriest bear
And heals the cry of a child
When honey is a garden that has been kissed by nature
And blessed by an almighty hand

Is there anything stronger than Love?
OH Mercy, hope leans on you and rests
In a territory of wounds
Show me the way to your grace.

Burning Soul

Set on fire, burning yet I am not consumed. I traveling the path of darkness, I cannot see whats in front of me, walking i stumble upon the objects in the floor. I struggle forward, taking hold of something, I quickly with draw my hand blood steaming from the open wound. Placing my hand on the ground I push trying to stand. Something rushes by slashing my leg, once again I collapse on the ground, bleeding I wrap the wounds as best as I can. trying to stand once more a hand grabs my shoulder helping to my feet. Turning I find that whoever it was is gone. I stumble forward once again tripping and fall, pain shoot up my leg reminding me of my pain.

Feeling a breeze I reach up feeling the tear in my shirt, pulling my hand away I find that it also is now covered in blood. Bruised and bloody I wonder if I'm ready. I hear a sound from behind me sub-consciously I step to the side but to no avail, I am once again brought to my knees, I think to myself "If I cannot stand to walk, then I shall crawl on my hands and knees". I crawl forward cutting and tearing my skin upon these objects that I cannot see. I hear the sound of rushing feet, I turn to see what it is, I see a man running, no flying carrying a torch. That burns like that of the sun, or a star. I realize in despair that he is not going to stop, flying on by me without looking back.

Looking down I see the objects that have been cutting my hands, Are not that of sharp rocks, blades or that of glass, but instead that of fingernails desperately grasping try to rise above what I am walking on. A hand grabs my leg, reaching down I take their hand and pull them up, in the process I to sink into the masses below. As the Person rises he also helps me back up. He offers his thanks, and we part ways, leaving me behind looking at him as his figure fades.

Turning I see the people striving to rise above what they have fought for so long. I once again reach down, Taking hold as hands tear at me, pulling me down, ripping the flesh from my body. Blood running from my wounds, my screams of pain become muffled from the hands the grasp at my body to pull themselves higher. A nightmare, perhaps worse, the yells for help, screams, fighting, swearing, and chatter. I stand there forgotten, left bleeding, dying and I still have no clue what for.

Darkness, nothing but darkness, I stood barely being able to see a thing, let alone my hand. The pain, the throbbing pain, looking at my arm I see my bone. Sighing I sag to my knees, as tears begin to falls. Hitting the ground like that of bullets, the sound echoing through the silence. I hold my head in my hands, letting the tears find their way down my face. I faintly hear the screams and calls again looking up, I see them pulling yet another down into the mass.

I hear the words "You alright?" I sit there watching the mass. Gentle hands took my arm as I was watched the mass. Snapping the arm back in place, pain screaming up my arm. Looking down I watch as she wraps my arm in a splint. The footsteps seem to fade in the distance behind me. I stand wincing as pain shoots up my swollen foot. I limp forward into the darkness. The crunch of my shoes upon the gravel was the only sound besides that of my heart beating faintly. Walking through the darkness, seemingly on my own. The whistling of a rock flying through the air, caught my attention, before I could move it hit my foot with a resounding crack. I collapse to the ground once more, tired, exhausted, and wishing to simply give up.


I lay there on my back, mulling over everything in life, wondering if it is worth it? should I continue? Closing my eyes I wish to simply fade into nothing, forgotten as if nothing ever was. The faint crunch of gravel is like of a drum beat summoning me from my nightmare. Hearing the footsteps near I turn. Suddenly everything does fade, turning into a blazing white, a blinding white. I suddenly realize the reason for me being here, was behind me the whole time...........


The reason was you.








The Resistance


A mist covered the valley in front, of him engulfing everything in its path. Men, women, children they stand in its way barring it. They're weapons pointed into the pitch darkness, throwing challenges, and threats into its face. The darkness lunges forward, plunging the warriors into the darkness, devouring them in its mists. The clang of metal verses metal, the screams coming from the darkness is unsettling. He watched as a man in a white tunic stepped forward toward the darkness, unsheathing his sword as he did so.

The man swung his sword, it striking the mist. A blinding white flash, came from the strike as his sword was met by another. Spinning as he was throw backwards he brought the sword back around. Blocking a sword the came from out of the darkness, spinning once again to bring an upward slash through the darkness, He froze suddenly and instantly, dropping his sword letting it hit the ground like that of a train colliding with another train. Look down the warrior watched as a sword, with a final push appeared in his chest having been rammed through his back. Blood dripping from his mouth his mouthed "Sorry father I have failed you". The sword vanished his body throw forward out of the way.

And shadow like figure stood there, holding a sword that was black and silver dripping blood. Dressed in solid black with red trim. A dark smoke surrounded the figure, floating around him. The sides clearly drawn, the figure in black raised his hand, his actions seeming to mick that of a mirage. The mist began to dissipate, revealing the size of the army in front of them. They as one began to pound their swords against their shields, it echoing across the valley like that of thunder. The Beat began to quicken, until the sound became one long roll of thunder that seemed like it would never end. Then silence, the ears of the warriors ached, not because of the noise but instead of the silence, straining to hear every sound.

The roar of millions of lungs screaming at the top of their lungs shook the battle field, like that of a shock wave it picked up dust and threw it into the face of the enemies. Some of which were wounded but still standing, battered and beaten these warriors stood, just as they have in the past for thousands of years. A young man stepped out in front of the few warriors wearing white. Turning he looked behind him, turning to face forward once again, he drew his sword. Looking down, he closed his eyes asking for strength that day whether it was to live or die. Raising his head, he opened his eyes something was there, something was different.

A woman joined the young man stepping out in front, others began to follow. Turning the young man turn his gaze toward the mirage-like figure. The figure dropped his hand, the pounding feet of the enemy warrior causing the very ground to shake, pebbles bouncing in the dirt, ripples in the water colliding with each other. The dust rising and blotting out the sun, casting a reddish-orange glow upon the battle field, like it was in a rage. Warriors running at each other at top speed.

The two armies collided like a meteor into the earth, shaking the entire foundations of space. warrior's screams were drowned out by the chaos, the sent of blood was heavy in the air. The warrior's tunic's became sodden with blood it dripping from the hem of the garments. Blood, so much blood, The blood began to flow to the ocean, not like that of a creek or brook, but like that of a mighty river, forever staining the country side crimson. The river flew into the ocean, Dissipating into the ocean staining it red with the blood of the warriors.

The Fish, whales and creatures of the sea began to die, floating to the surface. Causing the creatures to wash ashore their stench, turning the every air toxic and deadly. A thousand miles away one could hear the clash of metal and the screams, haunting the dreams of those who sat by, like a poison causing those to go insane. A warrior swinging a claymore screaming at the top of his lungs, sputtered as a sword went through his chest. Another running a sword came across his neck, his body collapsing seconds later.

Days after the battle had end the screams of pain, the clash of metal was still echoing off the mountains and the stars in space. The stars singing a sad song, the bright glow in space faded into darkness, star vanishing like they were never there.

This is Armageddon......


......We are the Resistance, join us.




Adam's Story


Peace, silence, restfulness everything that one could desire, he had, at least for the moment. For something was stirring him to wake, something wet. His eyes began to open, then closing wishing that he could enjoy the moment longer. Once the soft wet, thing, dragged itself across his face.

Frowning slightly he sat up, opening his eyes he was met by something that was a light pink in color wet and slimy by just a tad. Not only that it was now moving at an incredible rate. He let out a yell, push out with his hands, standing he began to run. Blindly as he was still trying to wipe clean his eyes so he could see. Thunk! he ran right into what would soon be known as a tree, he laid sprawled on the ground unmoving. "Ouch" became the first words ever spoken, breaking the silence of the world.

Waking once more, he found the same very thing that greeted him when he first woke up. With a start he woke up fully pushing, whatever it was, back scooting frantically backyards until he meet another object, one that finally didn't move, the same very object he ran into. In front of him, stood a dog, or rather a puppy, its light brown fur shining in the light, its velvety pink tongue hanging from its mouth in a never-ending grin. As if he knew everything that had happened and just probably a little more than the dog was letting on to.

"What are you?" wondered the man "for that matter what am I?" He gazed around him at his surroundings taking it in. "you", said a voice coming from to him what seemed like the ground, "are a man". The newly named 'man' said "And what are you?" as he knocked on the ground's suface, and then placing his ear against it. Once again the voice seemed, now to come from everywhere, "Ugh, this is going to be a long day". Standing the man asked "what is a day?"

"Ok, so what have we named?" asked the man, "And what did we name them again?" Seconds later the voice responded "Start with what you know". The man began walking again going through the names he had given to the... to the 'creatures' he finally decided. Hours later as the sun was setting, the man asked the voice "So what is my name?" the voice replied softly "You are Adam"

The voice spoke saying "Do not go to near to these creatures". Adam, however had other ideas, sneaking toward the creature with an urge that he did not know, something that he had never felt before. The creature's head turned, eying him with intensity, as Adam came closer. Suddenly the creature turned upon Adam, turning Adam ran, rushing through the grass and brush. "Watch your step!" Came the voice again. Splash! Adam had just fallen twelve feet into nothing that he had ever seen before. "What is this?" asked Adam.


Adam had some good long talks with the voice, which he had come to know as God. Come to find out, they were 'hip' back then too. Adam had gotten used to talking about his problems with God. "Man, I just don't know, its like a part of me is missing" said Adam quietly. It was almost like Adam had the best physiologist ever. However being that God already knew his problems he knew that it would help just talking about it. "Well, dude, I'll see what I can do" replied God simply.

Walking back to the area where Adam had made himself at home, Adam was just talking to his friend, Marley, which was the very same dog that had welcomed him first. "I don't know I just, feel like well, I don't know that either". Stopping the Dog, known as Marley, cocked his head to one side. Turning Adam saw another creature like him, he and the dog quickly hid in the bushes. "Woooow, dude" said Adam gawking. A low soft moan came from Marley, as if he was saying "Oh, brother"

Hours later, still hiding in the bushes, God found Adam. Walking up behind them God said "Sup, dudes?" Both and the dog and Adam turned and growled and said "Shhhh" at the same time. God got down behind the bushes with them and asked "What are you two gawking at?" Without speaking Adam pointed to the creature in the clearing. "If you like her, go ask her something." stated God simply. "No" Adam responded quickly. Now its was both God and Marley who looked at him. "Why not? you scared?" Asked God. Marley's tongue flopped out as he grinned as if he was laughing at Adam. "Dude, just get ou there and say something." God said rather matter of fact like. "No!" Adam said again.

After about another hour of them sitting there God said "Ok, that's it get out there." Pushing Adam into the clearing with his foot. Adam ran, stumbled and fell, flat on his face. Getting up he turned and grinned, blushing. She turned, looking at him quizzically, she asked "Yes? What is it you want?" Adam turned and said "Guys! I take do this!" He was greeted by a flying pine cone face hit him. "Ow! What was that for?!" Asked Adam. "Stop playing around!" came the voice from the bushes.

After a few minutes of trying to speak to her, she turned around a picked up an banana, turning she handed it to him. He just blushed, and mumbled "Thanks". She smiled, and Adam nearly fell over, "Wooooooow, man! Guys I cannot do this!" yelled Adam. "Yes you can you've already name her" came the voice from the bushes. "What? When did I do that?" Asked Adam. "Just say something to her" came the voice from the bushes. Adam mumble something to himself. "Speak to her, not yourself" yelled the voice.


Adam stuttered a bit more, until he finally said "I think... I think.... I think..." His voice began to fade. "That you're beautiful" said the voice from the bushes. She simled, making Adam sway on his feet "Why, thank you, your so kind" She said. "Woooooo..." Adam was saying as he fell backward onto his back, fainting.

where does happiness live


where does happiness live?
within another’s soul?
dare we trust that they can hold
our hearts together?or will
they crumble it between their fingers?

or does it live within ourselves?
can we find joy in who we are?
but who are we? defiled.
the heart is wicked. who
can know it?

is it found within god’s Hand?
if one blieves in such a thing (as
i do). his Hands must
be bigger than our own. but has He
ever promised happiness? or have
we only promised it to ourselves?

perhaps happiness is an illusion of
something larger.greater.wider.

happiness is dying, and letting Life
live itself.

"MISGUIDED SOUL"



Oh you poor poor

Misguided Soul

Have you lost your way?

Have you no place to go?

Did you take a wrong turn?

Did you miss the sign in the road?

Come follow me now

And let me show you a better place

Have faith and just believe

And you will be on your way.

Oh you poor poor

Misguided soul

Please hold on

For you dont have that far to go.

You see I was once just like you

Just a vapor in the wind

Surrounded by light

But never able to see clearly.

Please fly, fly far away

For in this place

You can not stay.

Take your rightful path

And do not stray

I will see you on the other side

My Dear Friend!

Ok I'll share some

Grace

As I sat one night meditating and praying
I asked the Lord to show me how I may serve
As hard as I tried a vision I could not find
Then a burden I was given and my vision revealed

"Mix me some anointing oil", He said
Made of virgin origin
Pure as heaven’s essence
Use the best of ingredients
And I tried to imagine where these things I could find

Then I saw the first bottle, but I knew there would be three
The first was filled with oil the color of the new morning sky
With a Tinge of red but pure and clean
And a voice said this is the sweat of my brow
As I knelt in the garden

Then the second bottle I could see
It was pure and clear
If it where not in a bottle
It could not be seen at all
And the voice said,
"These are my tears as they fell from the cross"

Then the third bottle I could see
It was the deepest of red, a fine smooth balm
He said to me, "this is my blood that was shed that day"

He told me to take the bottles and share the oil
Poor them out to any in need
They will never be empty
they hold as much as there is need
And when they offer to pay, do not charge
And when they ask what it is called
Tell them it is called "Grace"
And Grace is all they need

to the God of my life

Your name is holy, so pure, so right;
Strong and sovereign, ruling with all might.

Powerful and always in command;
I need not fear the haunts in this land.

Sheltering wings, deflecting the blows;
Upon my Rock, away from my foes.

Today is gone, sunrise to sundown;
I do not fret, for I have Your song...

This prayer overflows my heart and soars
to the God of my life - I adore.


my inspiration -- Psalm 42:8
The LORD will command His lovingkindness in the daytime,
And in the night His song shall be with me--
A prayer to the God of my life.

shadows lurk
light scatters them
beyond the night
the dark thoughts

i want to say
what i have no words
my mouth doesn't utter them
yet my heart screams

this prayer
this plea
in dead of night
in the last hour

my only hope
is you
that you would hear
these cries

these tears
with no words
that which long
to be answered

shadows lurk
light scatters them
beyond the night
when sunrise comes

"God Of My Youth"

God of my youth
How gently you led me
All the days of my life
How you held me so tightly


God of my youth
I just dont understand your ways
Your love is far beyond me
Its like a maze
Where only you know the way

God of my youth
Attain your ear to me
For I need you desperately
I promise
This time is different

God of my youth
Its been so long
And I feel so far from home
Please give ne a vision to full fill
A dream to follow

God of my youth
I just want to make you proud of me
Abba Father and Daddy!
