Father God

You are my provider

Revealing blessings daily

As my thoughts betray me

You sustain me

Whatever may come

Your will shall be done

When it appears hopeless

You fix my focus

As the storms rage on

We carry on

Overcome

Persevere

Endure

Nurture

Needing consistent connection

And to continue learning lessons

Praise be to God, always!

Forever & ever, Amen!

Smile On Your Face, 'Cause You Found Your Place

The escape

To alleviate and appreciate

All He did create

The flip side

To getting high

Living life

Shedding the strife

Winning the fight

That's already been won

Now then,

Let's begin

Being

Becoming

Welcoming wonder

Preparing for what's yonder

While remaining planted

Roots running deep

Beneath my feet

As I seek

Spring above the clouds

I don't want to come down

Looming with laughter

No longer the chatter

As long as I get after

It

Identifying Translation

Transmitted

Transforming

Forming the warning

Signs of life

To bring light inside the lives

Of others

From one to another

Lighting the candle

Dusting off the sandals

Cleaning the saddle

Preparing to rattle and roll

Rolling with momentum

Moment after moment

Sustaining the focus

Replacing the broken lens

Shifting the tense

Taking down the tents

Sorting out the sense to move on

Living long

Long after life

Passed on

Invested in the light

Vision

Blind vision

From intuition

To indecision

Becoming insecure

By retreating from the cure

Exploring the exterior

Feeling inferior

Dive inside

Seeing the other side

All the lies

Within the mind

Allow to subside

From the hole in the head

Rather than wind up dead

Relief

To real living

Watching the leaves fall

In the midst of the fall

Still able to stand tall

Through it all

Feeling stuck in the cell

Living through hell

Strapped to a gurney

Proceed in the journey

Always in a hurry

Take time to rest

To be able to invest

In the process

While living in the present

Relieved of all that I resent

Shedding the pretense

Disconnecting

To connect & collect

All there is to ingest

As we digest the rest

Making room for the fresh

Breathing in the air

Aspiring to inspire

Inspiration sparking the passion

Discovered in our own fashion

Clothed in character

Learning to love

What's provided from above

Abundance

A fun dance

As I abide

Instead of deny

The suggestions

There shouldn't be any questions

It's for our protection

It's much better than what I've already ingested

Pretension

Causing tension

Tense

Sense

Common sense

What's common with the problem?

Seeking the solution

From confusion

Insight

In sight

Prepared to fight

For the right

To spread the light

Taking it to new heights

Over the darkness

Mending the madness

As I continue to practice

And value the assets

That God has set

Within my grasp

Proceeding from the past

Ending how long it will last

Fast

Forward, to reset what I resent

The apologies sent

Sending the message

Cleansing the mess

As I'm being pressed

Realizing I'm blessed

Not lessened

From learning the lessons

Through experience

The greatest teacher

So many tests

To test abilities

Respond to the abilities

Creating responsibility

Continuing to learn who I am to be

From what God decrees

Thank You God For This Day

The opportunity to learn

Though it may burn

As within begins to churn

What can I earn?

Help me God

To continually

Focus on You

I can't do this on my own

Help me to learn

What are You teaching me?

Help me to see clearly

Vision in view

What is that vision?

Show me the clues

Of where You're leading me to

As You begin to glue

The broken pieces of me back together

Rearranged

Rewired from the mess I've made

Assemble to resemble

The life of light

Continuing to fight

With the ending in sight

I don't need to fight

For You will provide my might

As long as I'm willing to step towards the light

Thrive

Letting go of the pain and the sorrow

In sight of a better tomorrow

Replacing the void with something new

Infused with brighter visions in view

Mustering up the courage to change

Not to labor in vain

My ways are flawed and failures

But Yours shall reveal the answers

Never to fully understand

But always remember the scars on Your hands

Consistent in effort to seek You

No matter what obstacle we come to

Discouraged at times

But I, continue to thrive

Here Today & Gone Tomorrow

Though here for a short time

Forever on our minds

With a little handprint

Leaving a lasting impact

Never to be the same

With the forever change

Seeming hopeless

But never fully broken

Determined to carry on

Even when it's darkest

Don't worry, you will make it through

With all that is inside of you

We may never understand

But trust why God has planned it

For God can give as easily as He can take away

Blessed with the time shared

And left with the memories made

The Aim of The Flame

Die to myself inside

To find a place to hide?

Or

Find a new place to climb?

Discover & uncover

The life of another

Unfolding before me

Is this story

In sight of the solution

In tune

The radio

Reading the ratio

Rationalizing response

Rectifying Responsibility

Responding to reclaim

The aim

Feeding The Fire

Refusing to let the light burn out in this lifetime

Let the burning embers ignite action

With the wood & wind

The flame shall sustain

With continued maintenance

Building up

To burn bright

The warm

To comfort the chaos

A sign

To re-align with the design

Division from the collision

Enhancing decisions

Embracing emotions

Faced with the tears

And all the memories through the years

Memorializing to live on

Long after their gone

Brave through the brokenness

In preparation for the test

All along the quest

A testament to growth

Getting to be present

The blessings heaven sent

Mourning to motivate

To not cycle in the same place

Bettering the space in mind

Translating the decay

To find my way

Continue to pray

What can I say?

Not my will, but Thine be done

For this life shall not overcome
