let go...of the world.

the coming kingdom 
is among you.
lift up your heart
as a peace offering
to the King.

Put on your best 
garments...
arise your
countenance...

do good...
let love ring. 

Hosanna
Hosanna
Son of David-
Your throne
is right here
in the midst
of your saints.

Give Glory 
to God
He lives 
and forgives...
He reigns.

Testimony

When I asked Jesus into my life alot of 
stuff went out.  I am stoked! He put a 
song of hope in my heart. I made that 
decision on a Wednesday evening sit'n 
"Indian style" on the ground in "big peoples"
church, I was five years old at the time.
I remember God whispering to my heart
a sweet melody, " I love you unconditionally."
At that very moment a vast, real, and 
precious sense of peace filled my soul.
The words spoken in response from me
"I accept"...
...when words leave off music begins.

I was saved at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa while Chuck Smith was teaching through Matt.19. He read...Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven." I was not supposed to be there in adult church as they were pretty strict at making sure kids attended their own class. My shyness at the time convinced the deacon that I would not be a bother, so I was allowed in. Chuck talked about the loving nature of God and how faithful he was. faithful enough to die for me. Always there for me. I needed this as my split family left me wanting just a little more then human affection. God is Good...The Holy Spirit prompted me and I accepted His invitation to be one of His children.

Jacobs Well

as always 

Everyday I go 

to draw a drop

to drink.

Everytime I 
find rest---
for a time.
But then I go 
and I am filled
with the troubles
from my days.

I come back
to dip again--
quench my
thirst once more.
In hopes that it will last...
But realizing 
that the well I love
is destined to run dry.

I cry knowing 
that I will perish...
being left unfulfilled. 
empty...
and left holding nothing.

Lord Jesus I pray to you...
Please listen and reply. 
I want to be 
born again
Have a new life...
with peace inside.



Thank You for
reaching out 
your hand in giving---
water from above
Never stops...
Never dries...
Your love never dies...
Always flows.

To Spy Out Our Liberty.



To Spy Out Our Liberty.
You can't
do that
it's not
right it's
completly
a left.
freedom
is for
the whimpy
and weak.
How will
you have
self-control
unless
you are
master
of your life.

"I will not
perform that task.
You cannot
take away
my liberty.
God is free
and so
am I."

A poem about freedom in Christ over the pressures of the world :)


Messianic Lamentation


Hang up your
Harps.

Cry tears
of despair

Your daunting task
has become
your own.

                                                      You lift your head
                                                       for God to hear...

                                                       And Give no joy
                                                       to those you See.

                                                       No Peace
                                                       No love
                                                       No home.


                                                      Play again
                                                      you oppressed.
                                                      faith remember
                                                      where your from...
                                                   
                                                     And Sing Again
                                                     And Praise His name
                                                     who sits upon the throne

This is about the testimonial of Jesus that was rejected by His own people.
