Question of Faith
Trying
to see what was in his heart
Not
knowing where to start
Love,
life and laughter
Are
these what really matter?
He
asked me time and time again
This
is how we began
I
knew not how to respond
He
wanted that special bond
Thinking
through and taking a chance
I
breathed in and told him yes
The simple solution
Jerk,
jab and smack
All
are convenient for a physical attack
But
what about the emotional state
How
does this contemplate?
In
the soul all the hurt and torture
Keeping
you from being pure
All
these opposite forces
Violence,
death cruelty and divorces
Just
a few of much more
The
inner body becomes sore
Silences
are ready to shout
Searching
for a sign of position
To
change the current condition
Overflowing
from above
One
solution outstands all; LOVE
Dad
Your
daughter cried today
But
you’ll never know why
Your
daughter got put in a game to play
But
you’re not even there to say by
Your
daughter got her grade card
But
you’re not there to see it
Your
daughter is trying very hard
But
is she the only one who doesn’t quit
Your
daughter has a birthday
But
do you know how old she is
Your
daughter doesn’t know what to say
But
all you can do is break a promise
Your
daughter is living to her full potential
But
she sure wish her father was
Your
daughter is very comical
But
you haven’t been with her since she believed in Santa Claus
Your
daughter wishes you were here
She
wants to enjoy life with you
Your
daughter is showing you very clear
This
poem should give you a clue
A
Changed World
A kiss of betrayal to the cheek
A greeting no one would seek
Taken to His courageous embrace
For the destiny He would face
Standing firm in brave silence
The future would hold his
defense
He was told all His life what
was coming
And kept pushing forward
through the beating
The vision of love despite a
crowd chant of crucifixion
Mockery unknown to His task of
submission
Piercing thorns, nails and skin
unrecognizable
He brought His blood and body
to the table
Commitment held Him tightly to the
cross
Determined to be the sacrifice
for the lost
Through humbleness and
greatness, He was Lord
Creating the day for a changed
world
Sea, us, God
Shake me that I might stir for
you
Talk to me that I might speak
of you
Move me that I might walk in
you
For it is you I long to pursue
The sea impacts the earth
around
It as it washes upon the shore
A stone in the wide open blue
Moves ringed ripples more and
more
The wind cascades waves of a
100
Shades of blue and green
A picture is painted so unique
It will never again be seen
Shake me that I might stir for
you
Talk to me that I might speak
of you
Move me that I might walk in
you
For it is you I long to pursue
The life we live impacts the
world around
As we choose to declare Him as
Savior
He reaches from our hearts to
every
Outer edge with his un-denying
favor
The spirit whisks together
several of
Our God given gifts and
abilities
Fulfilling a space and position
in
A picture of so many beauties
Shake me that I might stir for
you
Talk to me that I might speak
of you
Move me that I might walk in
you
For it is you I long to pursue
As if we were your created sea
We often need your movement
We need your spirit as a guide
So we can go as we are sent
And as the seas we come by
The tranquil waters shallow
Or through the depths so wide
Against the sun we will follow
So Near and Close
So
near and close to my heart
All
together touching each part
My
guidance, Lord and Savior
It’s
His will that I favor
Given
life beyond compare
To
lose Him I could not bare
There
to answer every prayer
With
His tender-loving care
To
share his love and power
Is
the mission so sweet and sour
I am
here keeping the faith, staying bold
Until
that day in Heaven, to walk streets of gold
