When in the stillness of this moment,Speak to me, Lord, I humbly pray.Be my desire, set me on fire,Teach me to love always.Help me to walk in fellowship with You,Listening to You; sit at Your feet.Whisper Your words to me,Oh, how gently, guiding me in Your truth. While we are waiting for Your blessing,Lord, in … Continue reading When in the Stillness

I Asked the Lord in Prayer
Today I asked the Lord in prayerIf life on earth should not be fair,Should everyone get what’s deservedFor all they’ve done, for all they’ve served. I contemplated that in mind,In hoping that the truth I’d find.And as I gave it some deep thought,The truth of all, it surely brought. For life, you see, it isn’t … Continue reading I Asked the Lord in Prayer
Why Do You Hate?
Why do you hate her so much?Why must sin now be your crutch?Why do you go on from day after dayLying and cheating and floundering away? Why must you lie through your teeth?Why must you live low, beneath?Why do you keep on in your masquerades?Why must you live as though life is charades? You know … Continue reading Why Do You Hate?
Gone With the Wind
Gone with the wind are people in sin,Following platitudes in their ingratitude.Beckoning not Him they forgot,Bent on their fortitudes, slaves to their hardihood. All for the flesh that they refresh,Living their livelihoods slaves to consumer goods.Them caring not God they forgot,Living for selfishness and in deceptiveness. Living in sin, rejecting Him,They are adulterous, which is … Continue reading Gone With the Wind
Emotions and Devotions
Don’t let your emotions ruin your devotions.Don’t let your thinking be a cause for sinking.Don’t let the chatter cause your faith to shatter.Don’t turn the tables and put your trust in fables. Time now is fleeting. Who are you believing?Truth is what matters. Listen not what flatters.Listen to The Bible – is that what you’re … Continue reading Emotions and Devotions
Tradition vs Revelation
This was first written and recorded on November 10, 2022: Soon I will be turning 73 years old, Lord willing. And I grew up attending gatherings of the church from birth on up. So I grew up believing in and practicing many traditions that were considered Christian traditions or practices and/or beliefs. And I followed … Continue reading Tradition vs Revelation
I Have to Say
Don’t hate me, but I just have to say,Not all of you’ll go to heav’n one day.Some of you, e’en so nice as you are,Aren’t heaven bound as you present are. Matters not all the good that you do,Matters not how many folk love you.Matters not in faithful service be,Matters not you think from sin … Continue reading I Have to Say

Distancing From God
Distancing, distancing from their God,Many, many are a fraud.Turbulent, turbulent, round and round,Many ne’er get off the ground. Honoring, honoring not their Lord,Idols, idols they adore.Sacrifice, sacrifice to their gods,Idols they, instead, applaud. Minist’ring, minist’ring, not in faith,They trap people with their bait.Multitudes, multitudes all aroundNot the true faith they have found. Witnessing, witnessing lies … Continue reading Distancing From God
