Lord, You are the only Morning Star.

Nothing else compares to your brilliance,

a penetrating light that pierces...



...the darkness of our hearts

...the blackness of our sins

...the abyss of our human emotion



Being the source of Dunamis power,

You shine an eternal beam of radiance.

For unlike other stars, You'll never burn out.

Reaching Towards His Unbounded Glory

A Journey Of...…

On God's holy mountain

I traverse a spiral path

of an upward climb

towards His higher ground.



My progress varies between

arduously slow and immoderately fast,

while trying to avoid same mistakes

that keep me in a circle going round.



Rockslides are temporary obstacles

that can only impede, but...

Never prevent me from reaching the peak

where one day, I'll be found.

-Joe Breunig, author/poet

Reaching…

Being so heavenly minded

and of no earthly good

is a dichotomy of attitude to avoid,

as one must and should.



Solutions to Life's problems

become evident with clear thinking,

when grounded on divine principles

for the purpose of practical living.



The Standard has been defined

for all Kingdom residents -

Walk in abundance, be a blessing to others

as shown by Christ's precedent.



By making a positive impact

and demonstrating…

God does answer prayer

as many people have heard,

but His only obligation is

to honor His own Word.



He is always around

for requests of Salvation's Call;

His desire is to assist all lives

that have spiritually stalled.



He willingly meets our needs

and not necessarily our wants;

for asking in ignorance

doesn't sanction unmerited warrants.



Read and devour His Word;

hide His Principles in your heart,

so that your petitions…

I'm downcasted in spirit. I'm glad Jesus has my restroom anxiety-no I don't want it back. But, now I'm being attacked by something worse. I'm questioning my salvation.

The pain in me is too much to bear....it's hurts so bad. I just want to go be with Jesus. My salvation...my very spirit is in His hands.

There's so much coming at me. I want out of the city and into isolation. Somewhere in the country far from here. Or maybe the woods or a forest...I want to go…

To Nature's old self I cling,

although I should be a new creation

and enjoy the blessings that it brings.



I'm bound as a passive prisoner

wholly contained within my soul,

while personal chains constrict even tighter.



Jacob Marley would have been proud,

as I've forged my own binding links

that strangle the life force, which is continually cast down.



The freedom that I crave

won't be obtained by my own strength,

for only the Cross'…

Alot has happened from last night to now. I thought I was going to get sued/prison 5 years because of something that came up. It was a virus! Thanks Char for telling me about the rebooting or whatever.

I'm sorry everyone who tried to help. I thought no one understood...you guys were right it was a virus(s?) I'm the one who didn't understand. It was my anxiety yet again...

:sighs: I thought the Holy Spirit was telling me something, now I'm just not sure...it…

I'm wondering what it's like...

What is love? What is life?

I can understand love intulectily, mind wise, from The Holy Spirit letting helping me with 1 Corinth. 13.

But, love. What is like to have it more than just mind wise? To know a person cares...what's it like to know a person cares for you as an individual?

What is life? I see so much pain in life, personal and those around me.

It'd be nice to know what…

Not wanting to be rescued

from the twin, sin cities,

she's unwillingly led away

by a man she barely loves and pities.



Unable to follow God's direction

and her husband's leadership,

she succumbs to her heart's lust

for a final look, as the horizon dips.



Governed by Jezebel's spirit,

having forgotten that Jehovah honors His Word,

she's transformed into a pillar of salt

for a life no longer preserved.



Fighting tears from…

Ok, I read a comment from LT. He's right. Only God can save them...it's up to Him.

There's so much going through my mind right now. I feel like I could cry. I'm scared.

I don't have any other Christians to talk to about this outside of the internet. If I was still in school than...despite knowing the obvious persecution...I could have talked to atleast one of them.

So, much is going through my mind...

"It's not fair,why can't I…

Ok, I'm tired of so much...I don't want to think about dead cats, chat rooms, fear of restrooms...I want to move on.

There's so much in life that surrounds a person.

Satan puts so much fear into a person and negativity

"You may go blind"

"You're useless"

"Why were you ever even born"

"I wish you were dead"

"You're never going to see properly again"

"You're too…

Going my own selfish way,

based on the ignorance

of my false understanding,

leads directly to my downfall.



For chronic indecision

counteracts God's divine help,

as I traverse the narrow path -

Walking boldly and tall.



My Salvation is not achieved

by what I do or go through -

For I'm mindful of His Guidance

to accomplish a role that is small.



I desire to live a life of Faith

that is visible for any to see;

as I'm strolling…

In the quiet town of Bethany

lived two sisters and one brother;

they were Mary, Martha and Lazarus -

people deeply loved by Christ, as none other.



Unexpectedly, Lazarus fell terminally sick;

begging that He not tarry and be late,

multiple messages were urgently sent

forgetting that we upon the Lord must wait.



To justify feelings of utmost despair

the sisters individually met the Christ

with their piercing hollow stares

resulting from…

Inexplicably, my presence invokes your smile

in instances of pure and uncontained joy.

Can You Really Love Me So?



I dare not ask this question aloud -

fearful that you won't confirm our union.



Being together is magical for me;

each shared moment illuminates my life

with Hope's brightest light.



I dare not ask this question aloud -

Can You Really Love Me So?



Our natural chemistry is a catalyst,

igniting passion that comes…

Out from the darkness,

having a lifestyle that's plain to see,

I'm standing fully in the Light

of God's transparency.



I have no hidden agendas,

nor malicious motives;

my heavenly light is set upon a hill,

shining as a diminutive votive.



I'm a human jar of clay,

desiring true spiritual brokenness;

for God's vessels draw men to Him,

via the sparkling of His Holiness.



For the nakedness of Life

is my personal…

Ok, I hope...maybe atleast someone can relate to this.

Things seem to be going great. But, than life collapses.

When your faith is numb.

When you know there's loved ones in trouble and you can't even speak.

When life piles up so much. When you hear the Holy Spirit keep bringing up 2 Corinthians 12:9 but your spirit, heart, ears and mind have grown numb.

When the stress of life causes your body…

Ok, I read in my "Cup of Comfort for Christians" a little girl prayed for, I think it was an easy bake oven. Christmas came and she didn't get it. Years later she got it (as an adult).

I figured it worked for her. So, I prayed for a Kimi (off of Rugrats). I had a Kimi car from burger a long time ago but that's been gone. Anyways, this character is very hard to get. Yesterday, I went to a coin and hobby shop. I looked to see if I could find one. There it was! God answered my…

This body is imperfect and flawed,

originating from earthly dust;

it houses a spirit searching to find

the one, true God in which to trust.



To see myself as Yahweh does,

requires mustard seed of Faith's leap

and to take tangible action

since people know that "talk is cheap".



Separated unto holiness

to accomplish His Purpose and Plan

while sharing the Salvation Message

is the whole duty of man.



Expanding my personal…

Those multitudes of sin are

variations on a theme -

A reflection of the heart's wickedness

and all the evil that Satan deems.



He himself, suffering from hatefulness and hurt,

does exploit physicality's weakness in Man.

For Satan's attacks continue from his being -

Eternally condemned and forever damned.



In a false semblance of our God,

the count of unique sins is three

in a twisted parallel of...

The sacred number of…

Unfinished is the fine tuning of me,

as I perform in this human drama,

which is covered by a spiritual mystery.



Participating without a script,

I'm stumbling forward in a lifelong excursion,

although I'm not fully equipped.



In this paradise, that's known as Earth,

I'm a curious child of wonderment

and working towards my supernatural rebirth.



Despite my growth of understanding,

I will always be an adolescent boy of His -

Forever…
