AND THE LORD SAID

And the Lord said So saith the Lord God spoke Jesus talked Jesus taught I am the way, the truth and the life And God said Every word in the Bible is Truth Every truth in the Bible is a promise Every promise in His Word is ours In the Name of Jesus Receive the promise of Jesus “I came to give you Life and it more abundantly!” Be blessed in His promised abundance this day In the Name above all names, Jesus Sign in to see full entry.

UP UP AND AWAY, HAVE YOU EVER HAD ONE?

UP UP AND AWAY, HAVE YOU EVER HAD ONE? Last week came in with great promise high hopes and feelings so good Some who owed me paid up Others who didn't owe, bought Soon all checks were lined up Bills sorted and tallied up We were thrilled to be almost paid up Then came this week, built on promises Glorious as could be expected Oh I had high hopes for a repeat Not to be so, my bones began to creak My muscles joined in, an orchestra we had Movement equaled pain I chose to sit a bit Write on Blogit...

ARE YOU KIDDING ME

Is He is God? You ask if He is God. Then why do so many suffer? Because He is God and His love is so great. He gives us all the choices, we blow it almost every time! Sign in to see full entry.

THE NUMBERS ARE GETTING CRAZY ON ME

There is something amiss here I was told numbers you could always trust Mind you I only work in small and exacting ones I know, twelve inches is a foot all day long And three of them make a yard Twenty Four hours make a day except on Christmas Eve And right before Christmas the two last months are longer As we grow Mom or Dad marks our height on the door frame I graduated high school at a full five feet four inches There is something amiss here, I tell you the truth I'm old enough to graduate to...

Last Trimaster

She's just outside my kitchen window The weight of the world once hung from my belly She bends low with huge clusters of green Green popping hulls expose soon to fall reproductions of the mother and the father neither of whom ever met the other Oh I knew the father and when and how the road to my last trimaster and ultimate beauty came about but not her, she just stands there How does she stand there ready to bear up gazillions of babies through no effort of her own She bears little duplicats...

WHAT HAPPENED TO ME

Where was I when it all went down Was I hiding under a mushroom I thought I was normal Oh tell me what is normal today I see children on harnesses, nobody takes an eye off them Mine played in the community We all watched all of them Today there are pedophile listed in almost every neighborhood There is even a group called NAMBLA I am encouraged to be tolerant of things that are terrible Things that hurt those who are not fully aware of good and bad I am supposed to accept Political Correctness...

Your Attitude Defines Life

Life is Best for those who want to Live it, Life is Difficult for those who want to Analyze it, Life is worst for those who want to Criticize it, Our Attitude Defines Life... Enjoy Your Life, Laugh so Hard That even Sorrow Smiles at You, Live Life so Well That even Death Loves to see you Alive, Fight so Hard That even Fate accepts its Defeat. This was sent to me by a friend in Zambia, Africa. I think it sums it up pretty well. Sign in to see full entry.

HELLO DEAR BLOGIT FRIENDS

Dear ones, so many of you I have interacted with over the years and feel as if I know you. I have learned much from so many. I wish you the very best. I still have paid up membership for awhile. I shall pop in and out to read occasionally; however, I no longer have the time to write even once weekly. I now have a clean bill of health but my business has mushroomed and I am unable to keep up with it and do anything else now. I have been contacted about doing development for a fine restaurant and... Sign in to see full entry.

Jeremiah Knew the Score

All has been lurking there for a long time Since before the foundation of the earth That was the time I was assigned to particular parents A plan was set for my life I had a choice whether to follow That still belongs to me and me alone All the talent all the color that make my eyes, hair and being They rested, waited until I was a being to receive them The same was with you, even the sound that is your voice Imagine he knew we would meet here on Blogit in a coffee shop, a bar or a church All...

TODAY I PLAYED

Everything is different now, of course Why do some think different has to be, uh Worse or just bad as it moves away from new Well they aren't perfectly shaped tapered just so Minus a single unslightly cuticle, or bend at the tip That's how they were when I was a young chick of 40 or so Oh I didn't bother with perfection I painted, clear stuff Then came the red, barn red, oh no it isn't barn red not nearly I held them up all ten, no, no that is a sinful high heel sandle red Yes, today I painted...

NOT MY WORK

This is not my work. It is that of a young friend who is grieving for another friend who is so depressed. She shared it with me and I marveled at the compassion, don't know how you will see it. I am crying too As I lie on my mattress To my bed I'm stuck like glue without posture just this flatness Lord! I cry to you and I know you hear me Jesus, I am broken please stay near Shamed by my sins, please forgive me Come to me and I will pray without fear Help me up Lord and I will drink from your...

IS THAT ONLY WIND

Where does the wind come from? And where does it go? It is clearly invisible. It moans, it wails and it whispers. Its force is such that it bends palms to the ground and takes up mighty water oaks up by the roots. It whirls a little leaf, and spins and gathers and gusts and speeds until it picks up cows and cars. It wafts across your cheek like a baby’s kiss. It turns mighty buildings into matchsticks. The wind cannot be contained it is everywhere. It raises the ocean over the land like wet,... Sign in to see full entry.

THE CROSS IS EMPTY, SEE!

I didn’t notice the dirt until the cleansing began. Oh it was horrible, gut wrenching, the stench-the pain. A film of decaying filth covered lies self-delusion intimidation and always fear. Invisible tumors and open sores were all over from the practices of arrogant snobbery violent anger and self-righteous pride. My heart burst and spattered onto those I loved more than myself. They were dying or betraying me. I didn’t notice my dirt. I wouldn’t hurt anyone, I was sure of that. Bloody,... Sign in to see full entry.

Politics of 2009-2010?

They hammer me in the most notable of disguises: Cheer Childishness Joy Patience These cover the reality of their, ignorance, angst, arrogance, defiance, obstruction, I have traveled as an unwilling wayfarer before. Not again. My face is bruised from their stuffing it. My heart is sore from their false self-righteousness. My social truth is sore from their ill-mannered trampling. Like worms they eat away the foundations of civility. Like cancer in their ignorance of goodness they give the... Sign in to see full entry.

COME ON GIVE IT ANOTHER LOOK

I wanted to bring it out again, it has not seen the light of day in a couple of years. Justi Sugah just pray, ya hear! Weeds are bad in Daddy’s wheat field now He’ll likely lose most of the crop They spread through the fields like rumors in church Wind themselves ‘round the stem; choke off the heads I can hear granny and mama talking as if it were this morning ’They’d chat ‘bout God ‘n’ stuff Mostly as they put by food for the winter Voices stuck in my head, didn’t make sense then; does now God...
