My Podcast
Scripture
Tell me
You’ll pray with me
That God will be first in all we do
And when you see me on my knees
Thankful in tears
That you’ll join beside me
Bow your head as I do
Whisper sweet nothings
In my creators ears
Where it becomes everything
And from there
Our love can blossom
With the promise of today
Tomorrow
What was
washed away
As his hands touch ours
This will be our courting season
Not Netflix and chill
But Scripture and prayers
Tell me this is you
And every mistake before you
Shall be erased
Tell me
1 Corinthians 7:15
My Testimony
Today I confess, because it’s weighing on my heart. I’ve lived a life of sin, blind to how it affected those around me. Selfishly divulging in this worlds pitfalls. I followed false doctrines, false leaders who glorified Ego and not God. Arrogance controlled my ways, knowledge calloused my thoughts, and anger ruled over so much of me. I detached myself from loved ones, made people who loved me cry with hurt. I’ve used words to belittle, to cause tears. I searched for reasons and excuses in the teachings of man to cover up my errors. I’ve lied, I’ve used Gods name in vain. I worshiped creation and not its creator. I fell empty on my knees and wished for death over and over. And I’m here to tell you God is real, and his love redeemed my sins even before I committed them. What a love this is! He came down as man to walk among us, and left us his Holy Spirit to guide us. Jesus I am not worthy, but in his eyes I was, am and will forever be! I now know that every wall, every tear, every heartbreak was brining me closer to you. How foolish I was thinking and believing I could handle it all. There’s power and truth in your name, in your promise to us, in your sacrifice for us! Whatever may come I am ready, in your most holy and precious name! I believe! I trust! I thank you! Amen!
That Moment
That moment
Right before
Where anticipation
Brings warmth
That is where
I want you
Forever
Redeemed
There is no religion
Words and dogmas will always fall short
Books can be burned
Erased
Used for selfish gain
Rituals designed by he who holds authority
Only disguise your lack of knowledge
No need to chant incessant sounds
Nor prostrate into various forms
Repeating syllables over and over won’t do
Even music falls short
I can sing forever
And dance in place
All this just a work out of the body
Can bleed out animal after animal
On hand made idols
Babble language, speak in tongues
It all fails
Before the one who gave it all
Neither Church walls
Nor Mosque floors
Monk postures
Will suffice
All that we can build crumbles
All that we own isn’t ours
When 10 out of 10 people die
There’s only one escape
One promise
Of which none other can make
No other dogma can assure
I will put my trust in him
Who gave to me and didn’t demand in return
For he loves me so
Let all those around me depart
Let them think me crazy
Talk about me behind my back
It never stopped you before
I have hope in him
When the darkness of life beckons you
Where will your hope be in?
Who will be your advocate?
I now have mine
For I stand redeemed in his blood
Remnants
I can smile
And know
That yes there was a moment
When our hands binded as one
And the fragrance of breeze
Made fantasy actual
There wasn’t any need
For sustenance as food
As we existed from loves nectar
It was there
I vowed protector
And as it were
Through the years
Emptied from such duty
Only did a shell remain
And what was love
Withered in dust
It is said
It’s better to have loved
Than to never have loved before
I evoke curses upon
The barer of such a scourge
That with its departure
Left remnants of a heart
Full Circle
I found a space
Between the in and out
Restriction holding no obligation
Where I could finally lay my anguish
There and only there I’m to know
Rest once more
Evading Mara
The tempter iblis
The armies of destitution
I shall recover what was lost
Coming full circle
Facing myself
Clutching dark
To discover light
Discerning this moment from that juncture
Setting free it’s cause and effect
And finding deliverance
Breaking the stronghold
Of disillusion
I will form a treaty
Within Ego and heaven
It is there that I will treasure me
Anew
Separate from all I know and knew
In between every breath
I found a space
Viva!
