Brethren, do not take offence
Do not seek to recompense
evil for evil, sin for sin
For when, for when
We harden our hearts
By the hate they impart
We become no better
and it sure ain’t smart
For love to mature
To become like the Father’s
We must love those who don’t love us
Though loving doesn’t mean you submit to abuse and hate
But you always desire their good and to relate

Savor every step for you know not when
the path you call your life will come to an end.
Live the life you love, love the life you live
but always remember what a gift life is.
If indeed you live life to it's fullest
when that last step comes you'll have no regrets.
If you're wrong - apologize.
If you're right - don't act wise.
Try to forgive as quickly as you can
for this is what you need from your fellow man.
Simplicity is best
and love from God will keep you blessed....

Oh your soul becomes the devil’s loot
when you spend your life on Trivial pursuits –

What is it you’re spending your life on?
What is it that makes you tick?
When all is said and done and gone
What will you have to show for it?

Oh with the devil you’re in cahoots
When you spend your life on Trivial pursuits.

When you stand before the Judgment seat of Christ
That’s not the time for you to make things right
I don’t want the last thing you ever hear
To be Jesus saying “man, get out of here!”

Some spend their lives on Baseball cards
Or Barbie dolls or fancy cars
Some can tell you all you need to know
About every home run McGuire hit and how far did they go
Now some will play their golf today
In lightning, snow or pouring rain
And other’s can’t seem to turn away
From what their TV or the internet has to say ok
So how many touchdowns did Marino throw?
And who won the Series in ’49 – I gotta know!
And any one of a thousand things
Can keep our minds turned away from Him



If we can stay distracted just long enough
Fillin’ up our lives with a bunch of stuff
Now I’m not tryin’ to get you blue
But if you don’t know Jesus what will you do?
When it’s over and your life is through?
The answer might be a little tough
But maybe this poem will give you a clue –
Don’t spend your life on Trivial Pursuits!

It’s just the fruit of the flesh
It’ll turn your life into a mess
Please don’t try to second guess
These words – just confess
And give up your pursuit of trivial things
Set your heart to pursue the only worthy fling
Let your passion for God take you far beyond this world
With it’s alluring distractions and cheap imitations
And accept your God’s Divine Invitation,
Don’t give in to that urge for hesitation
But join in the Eternal Celebration
Of Jesus – the Joy of your Salvation!

So don’t believe this poem is moot –
Give up your life of Trivial Pursuits!



Psa:34:14

NEVER FORGET
to forgive those who sin against you.
Never forget to forget the wrongs that people do.
Never forget to return to your enemy
Love, Forgiveness and Mercy
It is only then, over them, we’ll have the Victory.

Vengeance is Mine, says The Lord, Mine alone to keep.
You have all gone astray, every one of you just like a flock of sheep.
You have no right to exact revenge against your motherland’s brother,
For another sin can never make right the grievous sin of another.
So lay down your arms
cease to do each other harm.
Make Love your weapon of choice.
Then we’ll see a new dawn arrive
and all the land will give voice
To a brand new reality –

“Behold how good and pleasant it is
for brethren to dwell in unity”


Mat:5:24
6:14

Every generation is arrogant enough to believe they are wiser than the last. Today's generation has more knowledge than any generation before it but knowledge does not equal wisdom. Today there is less wisdom than in any generation that has gone before.
Wisdom is indeed a precious commodity these days. More precious than gold, silver or diamonds. The Bible (the greatest source of wisdom in the world) says this was true long ago and it is just as true today. This generation does what is right in it's own eyes. It does not seek to look through God's eyes, to get His perspective. They believe that they are gods, apart from God, which means they are born of Satan, not Jesus.
Satan has long desired to be God, to replace God in the hearts of men in this world and what is a God without souls? What is a king without subjects? And so it has come to pass. Satan's wish has been granted. He is the god of this world. His capitol is Babylon. God's is Jerusalem. He seeks to rule from the hearts of men as does God. He pollutes men's souls with lies and deceptions whereas God purifies and rescues souls with truth.
Satan tempts, God teaches us to repent. Satan uses money, God uses love - genuine, sincere, heartfelt love. Satan promotes self, God says esteem others more highly than yourself. Satan rules, God serves. In Satan's kingdom, flesh is exalted because it is full of death and he is the god who brought death into this world. In God's kingdom, spirit rules over flesh for the spirit of man is full of eternal life (the soul is the bridge between flesh and spirit). Jesus is the God who conquered the death Satan brought into the world by dying on the Cross thereby cancelling the power death held over us and introducing Eternal Life into the world once again.
So, will you choose to see through God's eyes or Satans? Will you pursue God's heart, the things that delight Him or will you choose to pursue the pleasures of the flesh, temporary pleasures, the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, the pride of life? Choose wisely.....if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given to him.....

I love life.
I love eating and drinking
and hearing and thinking.
I love seeing such a beautiful world.
I love that God made boys AND girls.
I love trees and birds and flowers and such.
I love this life so much!
I love my beautiful family.
I love macaroni and cheese.
I love experiencing moments like these
when I'm with you
and you're with me.
Music, books and movies,
I love them all.
If this is a taste of Eternity,
I want to live forever....
don't you agree?

Are You Ready?

Are You Ready?
Ready to play the role you'll play so well?
You're whole life long?
Are you ready?
To become the woman that people celebrate with songs?
You've got that special,
that special something,
most women dream they could have,
and soon you'll know what I'm saying is true,
for soon you'll know, sweetly, God's romance.

Are you ready to fulfill the desires of His heart?
Full of love?
Are you ready to jump start your time together,
spent in what is not what was?
For if you choose here to love not fear
the reward will be worth it -
take your heart and search it....
