FROM HERE TO ETERNITY
God is everywhere this I say is true
But to make Him real is left up to you.
He must first appear in your conscious thought
And from there He will sink into your? heart.
Our Lord will not manifest as anything you can understand
Henceforth, He is the Creator of man.
If this is the starting point from which you try to know
God will allow your consciousness of him to grow.
God is Love, and Love is a matter of the heart
With this realization you are ready to start.
If you don't give credit where credit is due
Your entire life will be one that is untrue.
God is not invisible, it is you who cannot see
That He is present from here to Eternity...
MAY GOD BLESS YOU
If you would like to bless the people you love in a special way
Here is a prayer that has only a few words to say.
"May God Bless The People I Love With His Love"
This will entitle bearer to His goodness and grace? from above.
A simple prayer that unfolds tremendous power
Yet it can be said many times inside an hour.
But once a day and it will work just as well
To provide protection from the demons of hell.
God will bless you too who unselfishly request
That all of your own loved one He bless.
This is the type of Love our Dear Lord does display
Love that is unselfishly and carefully given away.
Any other love that is not of this source
Will be misdirected and end up off course.
By giving the Love that God has to give
You will be protecting your love ones as? long as they live...
SELFISH ACTS
By placing yourself first in this world,in God's world you'll end up last
It will be only Earthly treasures you will be able? to amass.
Here in Time they may serve you as long as you live
But outside of Time they posses no value to give.
Death transform Time into Eternity
And this is where God's face we will come to see.
If with your time; God,you did not allot
In His time,He will say,"I KNOW YOU NOT".
The travesty of this we cannot yet tell
For while on this Earth we cannot experience hell.
In selfish acts there can be no Eternal reward
They serve in placing enmity between you and The Lord.
And this is where Hell is, a distant and far away place
One in which you will never see God's face...
THIS THING CALLED GREED
What an ugly beast is this thing called greed
It has an insatiable appetite it demand you feed.
It is never satisfied with anything it does get
It only knows how to cause misery and regret.
More and more it requires for its appetite to fill
Caring for not who's blood it does spill.
Unholy and unforgiving characterize this brute
Evil and no good are at its root.
If you have no vision of Christ to behold
It can corrupt and control your very soul.
It is so unlike our lord in every way
It has no Master to Serve and Obey.
When we seek self glorification and nothing more
We will be turning away many people who approach our door.
We should be open for what our brother may need
When we care for others it is our own Soul we feed.
Nurturing and Substance is what Christ has to give
He came here to show us all how to live.
We all need His help if we are to get along
For it is the Heaven He created is where we belong...
ELEMENTS OF LOVE
PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GENEROSITY,
COURTESY, UNSELFISHNESS, GOOD TEMPER,
GUILESSNESS, AND SINCERITY
These are the elements of what Love must be.
For when Love is not wholesome and complete
It is one or more of these elements we did cheat.
We may posses certain aspects from the list above
But only Christ can manifest them all in His Love.
We are here to fill our hearts desires
Yet we get caught up in the things our mind transpires.
When we don't put Christ first in our lives
Greed, vanity, and general discontent thrives.
We will never be satisfied in anything we do
Because God's Love will not be able to penetrate through.
Christ's Love is the only perfect Love that could be
He laid down His life for all mankind to see.
If Christ is to be the example we set as we go about our way
It is Our FAther's will we must learn to obey.
For Love is more than the sum total of all its parts
Love is the effect caused to manifest in our Hearts...
OUR HEAVENLY BIRTH
The search for God is to be a life long quest
Accomplished by diligent effort and wrest.
We are all born as man or woman of this human race
Existing on a planet traveling thru space.
The pulling and tugging on us by this Earth
Has exerted its pressures on us from birth.
The products of this world will not allow God to be seen
For the fruits of this labor will remain unclean.
To escape the pressure of daily living
It is to Christ your life you must be giving.
He alone knows what you were created to do
He alone gave up His life for you.
He did not give up His life for you to remain loss
He carried your burdens all the way to the Cross.
He resurrected this Earth to prepare our way
To be expected by Our Father when we pray.
God created us to seek out His Love
You must look for Him In Heaven up above.
When we lift our eyes far beyond this earth
We will be preparing our way for our Heavenly birth...
EVENING SHADES
When evening shades approach and you feel out of sorts
Go back and examine the message within your heart.
For if somewhere down the road you and God parted
You must venture back there if true Love is to be restarted.
It is with truth you must retrace your step
Anything else willprove to be inept.
You will find sin at the source of this rift
God's forgiveness will be the only cause for your heart to uplift.
You must humbly admit to God you are wrong
For it is in His unity we humans belong.
God's Love has the strength and power to set us free
Free from ourselves to live as HE created us to be.
God knows the reason we each were created
And that is for His heart and ours to be mated.
When we unite with God right here from Earth
It will usher us onto our new and everlasting birth.
And then when we unite with God in Heaven up above
We can never be seperated from His eternal Love...
THE CHOICE IS YOURS
God's ability to forgive is greater than man's ability to sin
For God knows without forgiveness no Love can begin.
When it is from God's Love we do drift
Sin will always be the cause of this rift.
Sin will place on man external control
It will reek havoc on his very soul.
Sin has the devil at its source
It is his work to keep you misguided and off course.
The devil has only one desire in his mind
And that is to make you one of his kind.
To give him power and feed his need
You must part from God if he is to succeed.
God's ability to forgive is greater than the devils ability? to hate
Hate will not allow you of God's Love to partake.
For where hate is forgiveness cannot be found
And without forgiveness the devils work abound.
Hate is rendered useless and can gain no further control
When God's Love penetrates and occupies a human soul.
The only thing that stops God's Love from coming within
Is if we choose to live without Him and remain in sin.
With sin you pay the devil his due
With forgiveness you receive the Love God has for you.
As always a choice is yours alone to decide
And the outcome of Heaven or hell is where you will reside....
THE CULMINATION OF GOD'S PLAN
It is far easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away
Then for a single Word of God that He would betray.
Jesus, Our Lord, never speaks Words in vain as we do
Every Word He has presented to us in Time will come true.
The importance of trusting in God can never be overstated
Eternity becons that our heart and His one day be mated.
To form a bond that will endure into Eternity
United with God is where we must be.
God's Words posses power well beyond our control
It is directed to communicate to our very soul.
This life we are living is a temporal thing
Its climax will present us before Our King.
Before we can see God eye to eye
The fallen man must surly die.
When this mortal existence comes to an end
In Christ's name we will be born again.
All we need is a humble heart to God to bring
And He will present us with Love Everlasting.
For it is a humble heart Our Savior will bless
Unite it to His own to experience His tenderness.
This will be the proper and fitting end to mortal man
For this is the culmination of God's Plan...
MY PRAYER TO YOU
The poet's eyes have become imbued
Able to view life with a new attitude.
For my awareness has become imbibed
Able to see the things Christ has transcribed.
My life is not merely a game to play
It is a time to Love, to learn, to pray.
For whence I have learned to do all three
I will be prepared for God's face to see.
In writing these words what I try to share
Is that my whole life has become one prayer.
The prayer that I now have for you
Is that one day you will experience this too...
