Wait 2/10/2007
Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried,
Quietly, patiently, lovingly God replied.
I pled and I wept for a clue to my fate,
And the Master so gently said, ", you must wait."
"Wait? You say, wait! " my indignant reply.
"Lord, I need answers, I need to know why!
Is your hand shortened? Or have you not heard?
By Faith, I have asked, and am claiming your Word.

THE HEAVENLY GATE 2/10/2007
The greatest joy known to man,
will be the unveiling of the MASTERS plan!
The twinkling of an eye, HE calls us all home, So we can bow
humbly, before HIS holy throne.
HIS heavenly hosts will be at the gate, Our loved ones will
follow, our hands they will take,
To worship and adore the wonder of our LORD.
To sing alleluia with HIS angels galore.

Young Man Lost 2/8/2007
How can one forget his ties to the earth
In between the time of his departure
And his miraculous birth
How can one skim the surface of a life so deep
And long for something worldly
Awake, he sleeps
The shallows of his wasted heart
Yearn not for truth, nor for a new start
His wishful thinking is bruised with deception
For he never understood one divine ...

So near, so very near to God
Nearer I could not be;
For in the person of His ,
I am as near as He.
So dear, so very dear to God,
I could not dearer be;
The love wherewith He loves His ,
Such is His love to me.

New Year's Eve Pondering 1/22/2007

The Sprout 1/22/2007
It seemed for a long time
The little seed had been underground.
Then one day it sprouted
Without a clamor and without a sound.
She cried out, "Here am I!"
To tell the world of life anew.
When asked, "Just who are you?"
"I am me, " and that is all she knew.
She grew a little every day.
While the sun shone brightly on her face
Her life was full of joy;

Life Is A Journey 1/22/2007
Life is a journey through many terrain
From gardens of pleasure to deserts of pain
From an ocean of love to a jungle of hate
From mountains of glory to canyons of fate
There's a highway for joy and a highway for sorrow
A road for today and a road for tomorrow
So choose your path wisely and walk with care
If you follow your heart, you'll find your way there

I know the grounds below me,
but I'm not looking down

When I LET YOU CRAWL INSIIIIIIIDE
Will I ever escape,
cause it doesn't feel like it will be today
What do I have to gain,

That's when a man needs a brother
When the burden is heavy, the load too much to bear

That's when a man needs a brother
When the strong arm on your shoulders make the tears flow

Recipe for a Happy New Year 12/28/2006
To leave the old with a burst of song,
To recall the right and forgive the wrong;
To forget the thing that binds you fast
To the vain regrets of the year that's past;
To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the not worthwhile of the days grown old,
To dare to go forth with a purpose true,
To the unknown task of the year that's new;

On the year that has passed,
A time to remember,
The good times that were had,
New friends that were made,
And the dear ones that were kept.
All that changed and stayed the same,
The laughter, the joys,
The trials, the triumphs,
The blessings received,
Dear Family and loved ones.

To Know....a prophetic poem 12/23/2006
If only we could understand the depth of such a love
It goes beyond the deepest sea and all the stars above
Our heart is captured piece by piece, like puzzles on a table
So why then do the people think His Word is just a fable
They talk of things that matter not
This world will pass away
The toys, the boys, the days ahead
It leads us all astray

'Twas the night before Christmas,
He lived all alone,
In a one bedroom house made of
Plaster and stone.
I had come down the chimney
With presents to give,
And to see just who
In this home did live.
I looked all about,
A strange sight I did see,
No tinsel, no presents,
Not even a tree.
No stocking by mantle,
Just boots filled with sand,

In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
