THE NATURAL MAN

THE NATURAL MAN

Tomorrow I'll awake and slip into my threads
the epiphanies of tonight I'll probably lose
that train of thought a garden of delight
but the problems of tomorrow life will choose

I'll have made my decisions life to change
like those who swear off a habits lent
but when I awake the flesh will rule
and for its desire time will be spent

I can tie my shoes not even thinking
the customs of my fathers not forget
every path of life is set before us
but living without reasoning I'll regret

If I do not reflect upon all history
or upon the strand of life I live
I'm doomed to failure of its mystery
if attention to its standards I not give

But so embedded in my body its demands
that wars with my minds intelligence
though I know of carnality's commands
my will power will make light of its pretense

So only of my own needs will I seek
I'll not consider your life or your duress
for I only look upon the man in mirror
and of all its lies I'll not confess

My focus will be only what I can see
its mind not be shaped by what I do
for the spirit belonging to the carnal man
will never seek or rely upon what's true

I will flatter myself and you with praise
I'll not recognize how insipid its emptiness
unfortunately I'll prattle on its savor
or to fill what is empty I'll not address

With assertions of the common beliefs invoke
for upon my peers I lavish jest
what's intricate has likely suffered broke
for this is why you'll never see my best

I plan to fill my life with pleasures song
for the universe cares not about my grave
there is no such thing as right or wrong
so with merriment I choose my road to pave

Alas my self centered mind I'll not dispense
the struggle of its strife too hard to fight
I have no shield for all my lacks defense
in all of this I've failed my own insight

I will speak to you as though I really care
but you know in truth not a dime I'll spend
because of course all know life's not fair
like all actors only my role will I defend

So there you have it a nutshell
If I do any good at all I'll want its praise
for I have set to establish my own glory
and to be written on your memory my days

DARK AGES

DARK AGES

Mankind lives in an constructed maze
to occupy his heart and off truth to gaze
tightly woven ideology disguised as true
to keep the facts from coming into view

A world designed to feed ones greed
to convince inhabitants to exceed their need
the pursuit of pleasures and mammons wealth
competition and vanity disguised as health

The dark ages have become darker yet
when majority have materialism as mindset
love of family and neighbor is reduced
inflamed selfcenterness has Satan induced

A life of luxury many seek to attain
to develop good character do many abstain
ambition for substance does quality drain
and know not why ones existence is pain

Generosity and hospitality things of the past
the revelry and parties society holds fast
if you don't partake you become outcast
those in the know know the party won't last

to seek ones fortune and acquire it's fame
within books of history to have ones name
contemn your neighbor as not the same
and for self failure do others blame

Fame rarely attracts true affection
but character within upon inspection
honesty and loyalty things to value
without fidelity no friendship is true

To inspect ourselves in light of whats good
and distinguishing qualities are understood
days that are filled with useless chatter
not considering the values that really matter

What we desire to impart to each other
will determine whether enemy or brother
givers and takers in one world live
in demonstration Jesus chose to give

So many this life has richly gifted
with talents they've used others have lifted
Hype, this system with all it's gloss
a possessor of things but character loss

JUBILEE

JUBILEE

I can see the prophecy so clearly now
beneath the Glory of it I humbly bow
the promise of Life full and rich
instead of the fallen sewer of ditch

The pristine beauty that God gave our earth
abundance for us Love joy and mirth
with skill each one their talents increase
where what's majestic and divine never cease

Rolling hillsides covered with flowering vine
the verdant meadows filled with grazing kine
all the beast and creatures of sky and field
to mankind's kindness their affections do yield

The families of habitation know war no more
for Love and its direction covers shore to shore
there shall not be found that which is cruel
what is harmful hurtful or the killers tool

All tables are full of the wealth of the lands
the bounties of the earth enriched by our hands
where groves and orchards copious with fruit
plentiful range woodlands with her budding shoot

No mar or sickness in any body dwell
for to erase them heal nations did Jesus foretell
As God will again his garden renew
gather in his Son make all things new

What is delightful exists and joy in each day
for over the earth Loves rulership holds sway
the bad things and violence God's King has destroyed
those now left learned wisdom in renewal are employed

For the Love of God established in hearts within
clarity and Light shine in habitation of men
the populace of terra have been given gifts
with consummate happiness daily pleasure lifts

The bands of death are broken and gone
Life everlasting has filled the the world with song
Loves touch has fully reached all creation
the heavens cosmos all creatures every nation

Rapture of ecstasy will all be able to feel
because now the vision for mankind is made real
This the vision all the prophets show
it's completion God by his Son will bestow

For only Jesus had clarity and Truth of it knew
those who love his coming will walk in it too
the wealth of the nations will be freely shared
freedom from slavery where they were ensnared

Walk in this Truth do all children of grace
for taught of God living before his face
the hearts skips before it toward it to race
gladness in pursuit joy of it's embrace

You cannot wait till the morrow walk it today
this is the teaching of Jesus it is his Way
his disciples with the Spirit of it are filled
know this the Truth of Heaven on earth as willed

God has set before you Life and Death
fullness of divine quality is Jesus breath
all the character of God displayed in him
seeks this to give you God's Sons from Men

How oh Father the Light of Love does glisten
and growth it gives when we do listen
this our Father is what the Word foretold
humbly bow before you Life is better than gold

You have given the habitation Jubilee
the time when all slaves go free
earth itself has entered your rest
time of festival wherein all are blest

NEW CREATION

NEW CREATION

The dance of life spins in ocean
fruitful abundance is life's devotion
the cosmos and earth created for home
prodigious with creatures do it roam

My eyes are filled with such delight
and hearing the bellows of seals at night
forward I look to walking the shore
knowing the pleasures you'll show me more

enchanting are the birds who soar the sky
winged creations who hover and fly
tremble do I before knowledge of you
aware that earth's groaning for something new

Cherish I do the things you have made
may my appreciation for them never fade
life on planet in fathomless parade
innumerous bounty upon us cascade

Published you have within your Word
seeing and hearing habitation has stirred
all that exists in depthless replete
extols the praises where knowledge does seat

You who sits on the circle of the earth
rings in the galaxy in formations birth
you gave our habitation all it's girth
how small oh Jah is our voices worth

Your truth oh Jah do I adore
from starry cosmos to the oceans floor
fiery lakes that dwell in earth
whose movements give our mountains birth

Insight to truth you've richly given
by Jesus word priestly teaching riven
with forgiveness my sins have you buried
and the burdens with them carried

My soul does thirst for you oh Jah
like parched desert without your law
our Lord has taught us how to love
what he taught from throne above

Rings round planets have you hung
whose revolutions does orbit sun
you have demonstrated in every case
reasons why we need to seek your face

You are the answerer of prayer
with insight mankind do you share
those of humble nature will keep his place
when your judgment takes his case

On your footstool here below
your servants do your praises know
from Orion's belt to the milky way
the circuits of cosmos remain and stay

The migrations creatures of earth and sky
upon their courses travel and fly
all creation follows determined path
at mankind's foolishness do you laugh

Though having been cast out of garden
your servants know your loving pardon
reward you will persons of faith
whose hope and love you in them place

The meek and faithful will escape your curse
Jesus purchased them with your own purse
with kindness do your children nurse
the choice to freedom do not coerce

To the children of faith does God call
to release them all from the fall
into the glorious freedom of the Sons of God
to walk the courses that Jesus trod

How wondrous is your height and depth
the one who has given life and breath
exulted will they be in the congregation
as a new creation will take their station

Does not appear what we will be
and gifts you give in eternity
they will serve before your face
having received in loving kindness grace

photo images great barrier reef australia

 

Hi POP

Thanks for posting the pic of the great barrier reef. Very beautiful. I have never visited there and have only seen pictures of it - I'll have to do something about that one day.

Wallflower

 

This is truly the 1st place I have ever had both
the peace and access to some of the astounding
beauty that God and the Word of God have so
abundantly furnished the in rooms of earth ..here
we have tidal pools with some of the life seen
in the sea ..but my fascination with coral reefs
around the world has taken me on a journey of
wonder , and horror at what mankind is doing to
our "home" ..2-3 degrees change in temperature
will destroy the reefs . The snowball effect of the
pollution as it accumulates in the various geological
formations is becoming rampantly visible . there are
now over 400 dead zones in the various oceans
and two of the largest are over 8000 square miles.
with the rivers draining the pesticides ,corp chemicals
etc etc and fukushima still pouring nuclear pollutants
for the last two years , they don't stand a chance.
The sheer open visibility of our treachery and abuse
of our environment is not even a question in the minds
of scientists and teachers anymore..The question of
whether men can forestall the destruction of his home
is moot , the inability of mankind to control their own
actions in a environment as small as his own household
fully demonstrates his inability to control himself in a
larger space and as for the ability even if one has true
insight to direct that in a space where every viewpoint
of those surrounding them makes it nigh unto impossible
to implement ..(take the congregations for example)
there are days my horror at my own species frightens me.

 

GRAVITY

GRAVITY

You have unfailingly demonstrated your love
every law supporting our galaxy
is so harmonious that this
little blue paradise could not exist
every thread and movement
so precise we can measure
its movements right down to atomic levels

All so this small space
could provide everything anyone
who had any appreciation
might understand that we have
been provided abundantly every delight
in the way of plans for a Utopia

Yet the movements of every ruling body
of science religions governments corporations
seem bent on destruction
tampering with the finesse of precision
incorporated in the molecules of life
Continuous self reproduction and regeneration in nature
right down to making "seeds who self destruct"
to make nature exactly as themselves

I divorce publicly these unions of violence
demonstrated in their every thought and deed
poisonous words poisonous chemicals
totalitarian ideology pandemic to
the leaders of these factions
warring with each other hoarding the
wealth of a planet given freely to
the father of our species

And if you don't believe that
then think nature gave it freely
of her every fruit produced by her ground
YOU WARRING FOOLS
who delight in the peril and fall
of your own family
who know not nor recognize
your own worth or the worth
of everything and everyone around you

No , but you fall at the feet
admiringly of all these mongrels
the media who worship
these fine movers and shakers
who roll right over you and think
you should be trained groupies
these men who kill your planet
with ideologies and philosophies
whose very design is to denigrate
your worth and exalt themselves

Therefore I will exalt in your instruction
the progenitor of life for as surly
as we examine the work of life
we are moved by its abundant wealth
freely shared with all who live on this little rock
to examine why we all are unable
to fluently live within its confines

I think I will not walk off the cliff today
gravity is my friend if I know her rules

DRAUGHT

DRAUGHT

Bitter dregs of life's elixir
just enough sweet to bury the bitter
small tastes of what is fine
to keep us going within our time

Love is not a convenient thing
when it disappears the heart does sting
though full does it make everything
when gone sorrow and weeping

ashes to ashes, dust to dust
though bowed low in you I'll trust
you have torn away my shield
naked before you within your field

Oh cherished muse hear my cry
through falls of tears did loved one die
swayed and shaken by what I feel
hills and valleys and waves I reel

accursed is the lot of man
death destroys the golden strand
no resistance even strong here land
the mouth of grave does ever expand

Though I cherish knowledge of the future
currant cuts and pain beneath the suture
the loss and grief of present time
can make a woman lose her mind

All mankind of this chalice drink
It's liquid swallowed on the brink
ingested fluid in each man's hour
against it's draft has no man power

Imprisoned in death are family and friends
and some few have met kinder ends
into tombs and crypt and grave descends
and upon it's bed many confess their sins

Even those having been reborn
will face the coming of it's storm
our souls descended of this family tree
and you oh Jah will hold our memory

Into the dust our lives return
await the future for which we yearn
and sink we do into the maw of death
till times resurrection Son returns our breath

Every nation the memorial tombs do field
in it's demise our truths do yield
and to it's rest are all paths sealed
even those who to the truth have kneeled

GARDEN OF THE KING

typical summer , the guests are rolling in and time spent with
those I love takes priority over all other things (with one exception)
so my presence here will subside on and off while the comin's and
goin's are in transit ...I keep you in my prayers ..

GARDEN OF THE KING ..

Herein among the furrowed rows
sun ripened cucumbers and leek
twine the grape upon their stakes
tender shoots of produce grow replete

Where honeysuckle alongside jasmine
with tendrils climb the rocken wall
rainbow pigments a mosaic
like earthen shades within the fall

Fair beauty ministers the grounds
drifts perfume of plumeria and rose
wafts lavender with scents of cardamom
with limestone pathways for barefoot toes

Here garlands do adorn the gates
though there be no need for walls
with granite stairs her entries are
alabaster benches for setting calls

Marble waterfalls and fountains
grace the garden of all delight
where jasper pillars support the arches
and fires light a colonnade at night

Here the courtyard is cultivated
to entertain the company of Kings
but its filigree of crowning beauty
is what the humble gardener brings

So like that blooming garden
your fragile grace has captured me
so captivated and entranced
my heart be taken to slavery

Now the gentle breezes coast
there is shelter from all storm
where pools reflect a light so clear
to birth a personality new born

To turn its soil with planted seeds
care to tend upon the fertile crop
whose cornucopia in depth does please
and treasured views will never stop

One Architech this courtyard built
next to the castle temple grand
spans the torrent river valley
where the trees of life do stand

This is the garden of Gods healing
here the taught do love its sight
where tender hearts can bloom and grow
nothing dangerous here to fight

Lay hold upon the real life
for far better things for you are planned
but only Jesus can lead you through
the final weeding of his land

My Beloved is lofty
and exalted
his throne sets in the crag
on the mountain
I am the sea that laps at his feet
his voice is many thunders
when he sings
my turbulance is eased to peace
he has bountifully filled my depths
his winds draw my waters to himself
where my affections are the downpour
that fills all his rivers and lakes
which are released again to my shores
where we are joined in perpetuity
Sun and shadow are his resting places
he haunts the trails of the ibex
chases the mountain ewes to the valleys
he walks the untouched ranges
I contemplate his movements in time
my beloveds heart is the vastness of the wilderness
and I rest at the edges of his boundry
I wait for him
to view me from the heights
answer my waves for his attentions
where I caress his foothills
and his embrace stirs up the sands

His movements are effortless
ceaseless and ever awake
to the needs of his domain
the bounties of his devotions are
the true provisions of life
his generosity is unmatched
his reason always true
I am distressed without him near
he is fully vibrantly alive
and desirable of heart
I have found abandon of affections
ours is a devotion possessed of truth
realized only in a single rejoin
of voices lifted in praise
for the gifts of life with love
His father has given him a kingdom
those betrothed shall serve by his side
his treasury is full
rejoicing and delight are his company
his fondness with the children of mankind
and favor has lifted our hearts
no longer anchored to the depths
but able to soar like the mists
that water the valley floors
able to ride the gentle breezes
where sun , earth , wind , and water
have created abundance

PATHWAYS

PATHWAYS

The earth she cries we have made her bleed
we have bled her dry to feed imagined need
her crops our cash to fill our greed
we plant her naught to increase her seed

The kernel of destruction we plant with our hands
it's watered by complacency in all of the lands
self gratification and egocentric demands
the flame of destruction blown by billions of fans

Murder most foul upon mankind and earth
the adversary positioned to increase it's birth
and unseen military designed to destroy
mankind's weaknesses his evident employ

Crop upon crop of weeds fill the field
only you can gather them so the fields have yield
from the time of the garden whisper of Dragon held sway
but you have revealed judgment his throne taken away

The Throne of the Universe given to one who is true
his government will create all things new
its like has never been in this system of things
the Glory of God and his purpose it brings

Our choice is revealed only one government can win
only violence been chosen by kingdoms of men
the adversary and man incapable has proved
but God by his Son has shown them removed

Our hearts do burn to know your Ways
the revelation you've given of future days
Loving kindness and Life upon the earth will stand
it will reach completely into every Land

Love will touch each person resurrected from death
they will know that Jah has returned their breath
a day wherein each ones judgment will loom
for who but Jesus can raise them from tomb

The tabernacle of God has descended to men
Bridegroom and Bride will dwell therein
loving parents will teach the children their kin
how to hold Love and Truth upon hearts within

How tender Gods Love for his children imparts
unlike Adam who in sin gave us our starts
True Life unhampered by violence and harm
no fear will exist or any alarm

A child wrap his arms in the fur of a bear
play with the animals no worries or care
for earth will return to Gods original estate
paradise we lost when we acquired hate

the sovereignty of earth given to only Gods King
who will bring the changes about which we sing
appointed he was before earth began
the 1st and the last ruler of spirit and man

What did you wish for in your heart as a child
to curl up and embrace animals vicious and wild
where did you learn the things that you fear
that your innocence knew that you should hold dear

Men who have challenged the status quo
adopted things wild show hidden traits below
an untampered slate can be guided with training
bring out the character that's concealed remaining

Tis but the crucible where the clay is fired
the decisions that form the deeds we have desired
I lift my glass not mine but yours
in truth I have nothing but your set course

What is I and what I have belong to you
the seed is grounded and watered by truth
my elements mixed by the winds of heaven
why is perfection listed by numbers of seven

Always questions are the things I ask
not easily visible the terms I that I task
thoughts that consider the path of the quarks
molecules moving in all of Life's sparks

I have considered both Heaven and Hell
the lies of History the storytellers tell
Politics and Religions the truth do efface
a childhood dream that Adversary erase

I want to wake up and bestow my love
to understand each one is precious not others above
nearly seven billion people cover the earth
so valued above birds God named in berth

Your Truth will arise like the dawns new day
the things that have fouled her swept away
a return of nature to that called pristine
a character returned to what's whole and clean

All will be able to attain exultation
for the King will bring peace between every nation
the tempestuous seas before him now glass
no end to his kingdom will come to pass

absolute authority you have given your Son
over all things existing everyone save One
you oh Jehovah did give him this gift
superior to all , but you , did him lift

You oh Father gave him your praise
rewarded his service with everlasting days
with Love you have crowned him with your own light
endowed him as governor with your own insight

Every Land will flow with milk and honey
free slavery to a system based on money
wounded by rulers whose purpose was gain
ensnared by beliefs that bring others pain...

IMITATION TO LIFE

IMITATION TO LIFE. www.facebook.com/notes/michael-miller/imitation-of-life/10150399522665981

original link

How can you stand the imitation to Life
the plastic products the trophy wife
materials the symbols of your celebrity
caged in the menagerie a heart that is not free

Life does not consist in property owned
the vultures picnic your persona deboned
every single lie does the shill swallow
destroys your life the ideology you follow

The pillage of planet where appetites sink
desolation of humanity on the very brink
moral cowardice and riotous living pursue
the depth of depravity no longer the few

We all know we're broken but law has no control
where a man does not care what lives in his soul
it coaxes you with promises to pleasures delight
but has stripped and defiled you cloaked you in night

Fast cars and fast women the consumers dream
what cost to the heart and mind does it bring
the envy of others who in this succeed
every craving satiated in its own greed

Do those who occupy Wall Street really want change
or is what they want the same status to arrange
mans selfish desires he'd like to justify
in same guise of lies under currants their cry

The glitter of Babylon has society attended
where selfish exaltation over others pretended
when these things are gone what clothes a man
what contribution to life where does he stand

The trappings of costumes do become lifted
and the naked display where ones soul has drifted
when you strip the disguise what will you find
the motivations that can human kind blind

Just a small question when you rise every day
your life and your choices will your character display
your speech and your actions come before your judge
what attributes did this peer pressure nudge

What should move you to the truth glorify
the war on your character seek to defy
to incite those around you give life your thought
not have the lies your consciousness bought

The World has polluted our thoughts and our speech
raped planet and humans by things it does teach
but the dictators that rule planet God intends to impeach
through the kingdom that Anointed Jesus did preach

QUEEN OF HARLOTS , BABYLON THE GREAT

QUEEN OF HARLOTS , BABYLON THE GREAT

O Babylon the Great , have you yet seen your fate
that you will not enter beyond Gehenna's gate
with many voices you have scattered
all the truth that really mattered
knowledge is disguised , hidden by your lies
The web you weave to decieve
destroys all those who would believe
Century's old and centuries past
in your grip you have held fast
all the minds of those who live
who their hearts to Love would give
You have turned the truth to ritual
and idols carved with which to fool
all the Masses of the land, with your deathly grasp in hand
All your pomp and your pretense
will be revealed and shortly hence
All will look upon your corpse
naked and stripped , they'll you divorce
and when all look away, what upon their minds will stay
You have left their hearts bereft
with so little thinking left
Will a thirst for truth be born
or will their short lived lives be torn
When the winds of change do blow
and they do with trembling show
that all their lives in ignorance , left without their sentience
the wicked guide has left them blind
without Love in heart and mind
the fire of Gehenna reserved for you
and things you taught clearly not true
mankind will look upon your grave
where will they look their souls to save
Babylon the Great has spread her web
The Queen of Harlots will soon be dead
God will pour out the wine of his wrath
for all the innocents you've slain on your path
Thousands of years of torture you've sown
and only through that has your membership grown
Jah will strip you of your gown
will burn with fire your filthy town
The nations will look upon you in wonder
the abundance of your riches they will plunder
Flee from her skirts you lovers of Truth
Jah will empty her coffers and to ashes reduce

ENGINEERING A KINGDOM

ENGINEERING A KINGDOM

another one which loses form ..original link .www.facebook.com/notes/michael-miller/engineering-a-kingdom/10150795639770981

He told the tales with likes and similes
human character dressed as grass and trees
the fragility of life just like a mist
as touched by divine spark like children kissed

He drew attention to earths everlasting beauty
and loving kindnesses as worthy over duty
painted pictures that a child's mind could see
and of the qualities that would last eternity

Those he drew were woman child and man
in parallels explained Gods everlasting plan
a future government by Gods own plan designed
choosing those who like his Son would mind

The currant rulers here described as beast
devour and make suffer great to least
he implicated leaders intentions as the cause
as having violated all of the natural laws

He pointed out the signs to tell the time
how earth and heaven his plans to realign
where peace on earth in every nation he will gain
with truth and everlasting life they will maintain

Surprise a life in heaven was not the plan for man
but he put us on the earth in a garden understand
he intends this projects finish by his Son
with those he has redeemed to be the ones "to get er done"

I must advise you those in the grave are dead
they will remain there until the Son has said
he who has the keys of death has them in mind
to resurrect upon the earth in a future time

While Christendom adopted the ideology of hell
the Teacher of the Truth in sleep of death did tell
he called his friend who was dead and in a grave
forth the example of what his future rule will pave

How can you not get it the things he plans to do
to eliminate on earth suffering and all life renew
oh Shang gri La and Paradise He plans for thee
where Man will live in Love and joy in harmony

Did you really think you could him disobey
profess to be a Christian but never change your way
never learn your lessons expecting A reward
or do the homework of your Teacher Master Lord

Men listen to the priestcraft of the whore of History
religions cup of violence like the gods of Valkyrie
they have swallowed every myth and lies disguised
because the pursuit of the truth they have despised

How many stand with him upon the temple mount
the number there is finite did you ever learn to count
those who run the race run all but few receive a prize
the obstacles for many is self deceit and lies

Open up the Book and take a closer look
leave the fabrications of the priests behind
take time to understand an architect has plan
there's no power here that him can undermine

He has planned a world of joy
for every girl and boy
the movements of the universe are not asleep
there is a plan for priest and king
who like him their service bring
the tender faithful shepherd of the sheep

MY LORD AND MY LOVE

MY LORD AND MY LOVE

Take me , my love to the waters source
souls naked to each other and our course
my praise lifted the apple of mine eye
art thou glorious , tis mine song to cry

You must lead my way in a walk that's True
for all the fine things I have found in you
gentle call so beckons you are my delight
your visions fill all mine day and night

You are too precious to leave my mind
for you I shall leave all others behind
gypsy soul has wandered the world lost
her dances with others behind her are tossed

You are jade like the sprouts are green
the life you've breathed into my being
like the spray of waterfalls tumbling down
I bow to what our God has crowned

You are gentle in a world that's cruel
and emollient that can heal a fool
you have taken whats broken and made it whole
from the world which has taken its toll

You are the song upon my lips
the clothing strength that girds my hips
you are the blood within my heart
the energy that fills every part
the breath of spirit which gives me life
the calm that eases all my strife

Your sacrifice has flowed crimson red
that you might give life unto the dead
I must meld my soul to you
so I might learn the things you do
You love me with a heart so pure
I know all time it will endure
My heart skips like the rams of mountains
you quench my thirst with your fountains
your pardon has released from the fall
tis only as I have answered your call
the melody of love did my heart soften
may you , my love enter here quite often

You are the shade of all the groves
the whitened wool of all the droves
the warmth that dwells in rays of light
the knowledge that gives to all insight
you are the flash of epiphany
the spectrum that brings us to our knee
as the universe moves to your will
you do with abundance our lives so fill

WISDOM

WISDOM

Stop and take your rest here
all you who search for me
mine are the ways of life
the paths to eternity

I will instruct you in wisdom
and will purify your heart
will wake you in the morning
and at eve ne'er to depart

I will teach you pleasant speech
and prepare your heart for war
that you may love your brother
to commit violence ne'er more

All my ways are pleasant
they will bring your heart delight
with treasures I have paved them
with truths that give insight

Those who bow before me
I will ever make to stand
love is the only way
you can inherit my land

All those who listen to me
will true direction find
to meadows and water courses
to the temple of your mind

Foundations for all of thought
and her pillars of support
her walls are made of virtue
and the truth of God her court

Her steps will lead you upward
to the pearls of her doors
if you will but them open
to walk upon transparent floors

Heaven is her covering
the Son of God her throne
within are those who worship
who will this temple make their home

WORD OF GOD

WORD OF GOD

Proliferation the wonder of it all
from a tiny seed becomes a tree tall
pollen from stamen floats on winds call
DNA puzzles do many enthrall

Written instruction for what it becomes
answers to life's perplexing problems
a manual so tiny naked eye cannot see
engineering so fine progresses what is to be

Stored information that's dynamic in action
investigation that understands just a fraction
plants that convert light into sugar
directions malfunction converted to injure

So much of language we don't understand
and deny designer on length of it's strand
like God we conceive with plans and action
to science becomes a single mans passion

We draw and layout a similar pattern
imitation configured by nature so learn
skill of arrangement and execution
who would replace design with evolution

We ourselves imitate all creation
by things produced in every nation
like God we delight to work something new
to admit being like God are those of us few

Why do so many have difficult time
that like our Father have creative mind
able to produce from imaginative skill
beauty and pleasure which in our souls thrill

Everything speaks of brilliant design
it's language to the specifics define
communication of action individual speech
in every molecule order does teach

Expressions of Love in all that's created
conditions within the things investigated
intelligence for foolishness many have traded
and thirst for learning becomes castigated

We comprehend not the speech of our tongue
or the effects upon whom it belong
direction of growth all order is spoken
connection with Father has become broken

Genetics embody progression of growth
contains language and communication both
from within does come outward advance
to intricate to have arrived by chance

In all of nature instruction is written
the Bible a book of directions submission
to understand Love and how we should live
and what is hidden within his missive

Jehovah to earth sent his only begotten
with his sacrifice might our hearts soften
so we might have our freedom of speech
to understand the heights that we may reach

every living organism be it plant bug bacteria or animal
on the planet contains the instruction book of DNA
God has also kindly provided a book of instruction
for life and a master teacher for guidance and has
richly provided every possible delight to be contained
within the Cosmos ....way too many scriptures for
the wonders contained in creation ...

COGNITION

You are beloved , eclipsing all of men
removing from us errors , and took all us in
you could see beyond soil, which covered all of we
and when we were uncovered , the fruit that we could be

You see beyond the fasades we have constructed
to the deepest core the things we need instructed
there is nothing in the universe hidden from your sight
all things you created from darkness into light

I have found no one , anywhere have I been
your exceeding qualities, transcend those of men
words cannot even, our awe of you convey
your brightness excels. even the suns light in day

We were broken and you came to bind our wounds
your ointment kindness erasing self made tombs
compassion for the oppressed afflicted masses
starving for truth where famine them compasses

Their needs so clear to embrace them are you moved
and hold them close till every tear can be removed
a heart so fine that we should be moved to pray
from something so damaged you should look away

But you reached out to take us by the hand
with your instruction made to help us understand
to imitate the pattern that for us you set
like kindness for others we ourselves must not forget

Proverbs 8 , 31:26 Acts 14:17
2 Corinthians 6:6 Galatians 5:22
Colossians 3:12 2 Peter 1:4-8

CONFLICTED ( or STAR CROSSED LOVERS)

CONFLICTED ( or STAR CROSSED LOVERS)

Not a day goes by I don't think of you
you have permeated my fortress and walk freely in all its rooms
(examining it's furnishings)
how did I allow you entry without the
usual search scan and seizure ?
I'ts like a foreign substance and all
my antibodies are seeking to eradicate
your presence (anti-christs)
My mind and heart find your entrance exhilarating
like ecstasy ( a neurologically happy drug ,
which by the way I've never imbibed in but the
other one I'm only slightly familiar with)
My body wants to throw you off like some
intruder to the death it lies in bondaged slavery of.
I finally understand the WAR.
I want to isolate this substance and imbibe at will
or as often as I desire.
There's no corner on the market for this substance,
you can only get this by freely accepting it as your
own life blood , the loss of which kills us , but it's
flow is what keeps us alive.
I desire to lay in it's bliss
like basking in a warm sun's rays
unfortunately I burn easily , so I usually limit
my exposure to substances I feel may do me damage.
But OH , HOW GOOD this FEELS , as though I should
have been born to this naturally .
But NO , love is not the natural substance of the world
in it's battlements and fortresses erected by men and
so thoroughly indoctrinated into his very being .
I just want to bottle this and share it with everyone.
But everyone "knows" every really really great substance
wears off and kicking the habit is way way painful .
But I want to suck this up and live in it , to have the heat
of it never dim , until it is an all consuming fire that lights
everything in it's sphere . Yes LOVE JUNKIE , child of God
a shameless addict to truth about the paths people choose
to "lose" themselves on .
I've been like a bloodhound sniffing out every trail looking
for this substance the one that transforms you into fully
brilliantly vibrantly alive , and to roll in it until every fiber
of my being is saturated with it's fragrance.
The factory that manufactures this is built within ,
and I want unlimited access , but my own body has
set up perimeters and walls to fence off my full access
to my own God given life source ..(the curse)
You can only have full admittance when you can use
it's power to give life and not destroy others , to be
able to manage it usefully for the benefit of all.
But I'm a natural indulgent in what feels good ,
substances always on the intake , seeking to have a
balm that shields me from being abused or seeing
my own abuses of Life. My ability to utilize a substance
so powerful is limited by my training , my will and my
exposure to everything that seeks to sell it on the open
market like a thrill seeker , or cheap whore who can be
had for a bouquet and dinner , which is quickly consumed
in one night and disappears tomorrow . Nothing that the
world offers can even slightly imitate the magnitude and
power residing where Love dwells . When you've been
allowed to taste its manna , the desire for a plateful
is now not even enough but the drive to constant partaking
of its presence is now an all consuming fire and I am
driven to sign up for the lifetime plan . For better is a life
that feeds on love daily , than to choke and suffocate on
the bowls of hatred served up daily in the worlds menu.
I have relished the view from opposite sides of the room ,
when you're ready for the permanent plan you will
have to crossover to the other side . I know you read me,
like the good book , and when you understand you can
hide it from the world , but not from me , or yourself .
We want full access to the wellspring of life and love , I'm
willing to share the source , but it's a limited partnership (MLP)
on a lifetime plan , but it's riches are infinite and can only
be provided by the source. If you're willing to crossover ,
I'll allow you re-entry and full access ... Love

Hebrews 11:1
