Now I am looking through the window In the corner of my room. I see people walking here and there Seemingly without a care. I wonder, “Do they truly know Him? Do they think of Him at all? Do they think of what He’s done for them? Have they given Him a call? “Do they wonder if He’s listening To...

At the top of her lungs She cried out in exasperation. Nothing was working out According to her expectations. Life was not giving her What she thought life was all about. Life was giving to her What she had hoped that it would not. So her expectations, She learned, were not to be realized. And...

Today I asked the Lord in prayer If life on earth should not be fair, Should everyone get what’s deserved For all they’ve done, for all they’ve served. I contemplated that in mind, In hoping that the truth I’d find. And as I gave it some deep thought, The truth of all, it surely brought. For...

No matter what your circumstances, You can trust in Jesus Christ. So, in all of your happenstances, Please don’t give up now to strife. I understand in life is hardship, Pain to bear as part of life. Now Jesus suffered much for freedom From our sin, for sin is rife. So trust Him as your Lord...

To sing a new song, a song in my heart, A song that’s of joy, to never depart, To sing it out loud where people can hear, To sing now with courage and never with fear, To sing in the morning and even at night, To sing of salvation, of Jesus, the Light, To tell of His wonders, His miracles, too...

Life has its trials, sometimes they are many, And sometimes it feels as some folks not got any. We never do know, though, what others go through, For we don’t live with them, don’t know what they do. But many are those filled with heartaches galore, While so many others their pain they ignore...

With the testing of time, not are all on God’s side. Many counterfeits here who of God unaware. Not like they didn’t know, but refused to Him bow, And they put on a show which was really quite low. They pretend to be His, but His word not their Biz. After flesh they do go, and the world they do...

When the teardrops fall, I do call on my Lord. He is my support as I walk through the storm. In the womb of my mother, my life He did form, All that was for me He had planned ‘fore I was born. God never promised us a life without tears, A life without misery, a life without fears. Our Lord...

Christian brother, where are you? Christian sister, and you, too. What’s important? Do you know? Does it matter? Does it show? Your intentions, what are they? Read your Bible, kneel and pray? Have devotions here and there? Share the gospel anywhere? Some of you are quite sincere, Follow...

Your desire is my desire. You have set my heart on fire. Your love leads me, follow You, Faithful be, my witness true. Give all of I have to You, Loyalty to You is due. Walk with You throughout the day As I bow my heart and pray. Need Your grace to give me power To walk with You in this hour...

Danger’s lurking, humans squirreling, Minds are filled with garbage hurling, Life’s disaster going faster, Sin is now their Lord and Master. Open letter to the hurting, Sin is danger, don’t be flirting. Don’t escape in what is magic Or life can turn and be tragic. Time on earth not without...

Religion is based in the teachings of man, In forms and traditions in which they now stand. Their customs, their idols, are what they now serve, And from their procedures they barely will swerve. The writings of man are the bibles they read, While God’s word, the Scriptures, they rarely will...

Nonsense, nonsense coming from their mouths, Raise their banners, raise them very loud, Bold in witness, that but not of God, Please the world and draw in their large crowds. “Win the world to us, but not to God, Please the crowds and make sure music’s loud, Tell some jokes, and have a new...

Jesus Christ, He died for all, Not so we could have a ball. Jesus in that manger lay, So we’d worship Him and pray. Jesus Christ, He came to earth, So in Him we’d have new birth. Jesus sacrificed for sin, So that we could live in Him. Jesus Christ, our only Lord, Gave us grace we can’t afford...

Of Satan’s snare be so aware, And do not live without a care. He’ll wipe you right off of your feet And kick you down in deep defeat. He’s tricky, he is, there’s no doubt, He’ll give a one, two, then you’re out. So, put on armor that’s of God, Remain awake, without a nod. Walk in the light, and...

Ministers of The Gospel Take heed, just so you know, You work for God, not for self. He’s the one who makes things grow. The church is not of yourselves. She is not your creation. You didn’t make her, God did. She is His holy nation. The plans for her are of God, Not of the will of man. Forget...

Oh, Lord, You are my heart’s desire I want to do what You require To meet with You at break of day To read Your word, to bow and pray To listen to Your every word To think not that it is absurd To drink its truths into my heart So, from You, Lord, I’ll not depart To love You, Lord, as You love...

Written during the time of the Covid Crisis of 2020 In this crazy world of ours, With emotions flying high, With fear mongers at their worst Blowing everything sky high, Can we trust in what they say? Do their words to us make sense? Is it logical to say That a few is an event? An agenda, do...

Lately the Lord has led me to share a few of my poems which He has led me to write over the years, and to post them on YouTube, and then to talk about them and what they mean to me and how they are being applied in my life and/or how they can be applied in other people’s lives. For many (not...

In the stillness of the moment, As I sit here in the silence, I am talking with my Savior, And I’m listening for His kindness. I can hear His gentle whisper, As He breaks through all the hush, And He tells me that He loves me, Which He does, so very much. As He tenderly instructs me, In what...
