Freed Soul

Tortured soul
Struggling to survive another day of wearing the chains of voluntary slavery,to earn my keep.

Struggling to labor with my fellow slaves,
some try to cut me like glass,
while other try to break my bone like rocks.

Tortured soul
Long to break free from these chains that hold me to the ground.
Longing to spread wrings of creativity,to earn my keep.
Souring on the winds of Art,poetry,comedy.

Rising from the dust of a tortured soul to the rebirth of a fulfilled soul.
Using the God given gifts of creativity to bring color into A gloomy world.

That fellow slave to sin,may open their hearts of glass or stone to God,that through His Holy spirit their hearts will become like clay.
So God can mold them into the beautiful image of his Son.

Stand Strong

Stand strong
In the dark don't allow your knees to grow weak

Stand strong
Be fore your adversary your strength will peak
If you seek the Spirit of the Humble and the meek

People with cold stone heart seek to devour people
Using weapons they have fashioned from their mean streak
while they stumble around weak and lost in the dark

People with warm hearts of clay
will find there way through the dark following the light of faith
Using the shield of peace and the sword of Truth to ward of the attack of the adversary

Stand strong
Don't fret when some days you are met with the elements of weariness and dreariness
The Holy Spirit heals a weather beaten soul that is open to Him

Stand strong
Don't allow adversity to erode your God given hopes and dreams
Through faith in Christ all will overcome our adversary in this world

Stand strong
In the dark don't allow your knees to grow weak

Can You Come Out And Play?

Knock...Knock..Knock,

Can you come out and Play?

Steal the key from the warden.
Unlock the shackle that keep you trapped inside.

It's a beautiful day
Come out and play?

Don't hanging silently on the wall with the other wall flowers.
It's time to break free and express your self.

Don't be afraid to sing a different tune.
We are not all created to be the same at this elevation.

So you don't have to play it safe .
You can buck against the hypnotic beat that is echoing through the radio and the television stations .

Can you come out and play?

Don't be afraid to go against the flow of yesterday.
To day is a gift from God to make a new vibration.
It's time to go out and play.

Life is like playing a musical instrument in a hall.
The walls are people.
the hall is time.

Be wise in the song you play,
For your words and actions will echoing off the people and be carried down through the halls of time.

Knock...Knock..Knock,
Can you come out and Play?

Will you make A difference today?

Mother Nature's Redeemer

What was the crown of thorns fore ?

Why was it hammered to Jesus' brow ?
Like forcing a nail through a piece of wood.

Was it a badge of mockery toward the Jewish leaders?
Fore pressing Pilate to crucify a man he proclaimed to fine no fault there in.

What was the crown of thorns fore ?

Was the crown of thorns Mother Nature's representative ?
For she needed to be redeemed from the cruse of sin.
Redeemed from suffering under the Agents of Darkness ,Devour,Destruction,Decay.

Just as the first man Adam through the act of disobedience ,sold Mother Nature into slavery.
To The ownership of The Archangel of deception,insurrection, and Devourer of Souls.

Mother Nature Was purchased out of slavery by God,and she will be set free from the presence and power of the Prince Of The Power Of The Air.

Fore the purchase price to set Mother nature free ,
was for the sinless Son Of Man,The Son Of God,to wear the Crown of thorn on His brow.
while out of perfect obedience to the Father ,
He was offering his life on the cross as a ransom to purchase sinful man back to God.

This is why Jesus wore The crown of thorns .
.

Black Sheep Washed Whiter Than Snow

Jesus frees
If you will believe

Cast away your wondering around in your dark past
Start traveling along His lighted path
you will see that Jesus frees
If you will believe

I started my journey as a black sheep in the fold
always rolling in the wrong direction
So I was starved for affection
I was abandoned by the fold

Instead of hanging me from a tree
They leave me in a dense dark forest
In the care of the hands of the wolves

The Father to the Fatherless closes the hungry mouths of the wolves
He safely lead me back to my fold
Though I try to roll in harmony with the fold
I could not win their affection
I recieved their rejection
Because in their I eyes I was still the black sheep of the fold

They curioused me out of the fold
They thought I would never be a successful sheep
They thought I would roll in the direct of a pig
Spending my days wallowing in the mud
becoming nothing more than a dud
My journey would end on a heap pile of crud

I once again was abandoned to the dark dense woods
The home of the hungry wolves

I found the woods were cold with rejection
No flames of affection to warm oneself by
Blinded by darkness ,for there was no hope to provide light
Wandering around lost ,for there was no direction

Then The Father to the Fatherless
The Good Shepherd
Called out to me

He said," You don't have to be lost any more."
"Join my fold."

"I will never neglect you."
"I will never reject you."
"I will never eject you."

"Cast away your wondering around in your dark past."
"Come let Me make you a new creation,old thing are done away with."
"Let Me guide you along the lighted path of abundant life. "

" For I am Jesus, I have come to set you free!"

" If you will believe you will see."

I'm Not Living In Stealth Mode

my image might be a fright in your sight
but that doesn't mean I bite

I don't have a college degree
But that doesn't mean I am not wise enough to know the difference between darkness and light

I may not be a Pastor or a Rabbi
But I can still share with your the words of Jesus who has the power to lead you from death and into abundant eternal life

My talents may not fetch silver or Gold
But that doesn't mean they aren't gifts from God
But that doesn't mean they aren't anointed for the service of God's kingdom

I may not have a popular name
I may not have power and wealth
That doesn't mean I live in stealth mode

But thats not going to stop me from turning the world upside down
To introduce the hungry to the name of The Bead Of Life
Jesus The Christ.
