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…

After twenty years, as cursed as I may be

for having learned computerese,

I continue to examine bits, bytes and words

and insure that I'm one of those computer nerds.



Program design, source code and compile

followed by walk-throughs that place me on trial.

There's lots of testing - a means to an end

in hopes of avoiding future production abends.



There are micros, minis and mainframe hardware

which are made to work with in-house and…

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'…

Cuddling with my beloved

under the warmth of satin sheets,

I gently sense the merging of souls

as our bodies become one flesh.

Fingertip sensations reflect the excitement

that are already stirred within my spirit.

During these sweet times of intimacy,

I'm losing myself as a fading light

in the ultimate desire of Love,

as the moments are embedded

softly into our memories.

  …

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…

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…
