There is better place
Distant birds fly to and from
Light behind mountain
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your grace,
Thank you for your forgiveness,
And for the peace you offer me;that which surpasses all human understanding,
Thank you for your protection from all dangers and for those I faced I say thank you because they've made me stronger,
Thank you for all my loved ones,
Lord thank you for everything,
Take over my life,for only you can,
May your name be glorified,
Forever and ever through Christ

Amen.

God is talking behind my back
But it's not what you think
He's telling all his angels in Heaven
How much he's in love with me
Be ye sinner or be ye saint
We must all rely upon his grace
God is talking behind my back
But it's not what you think

God is laughing at me
But not to my face
Because of all the joy I bring
On any given day
When God the father looks at me
He see's his Sons sacrifice in my place
God is laughing at me
But not to my face

God is calling me every name
He can think of under the Son
From family to friend to tender child
On up to beloved one
As he loves me more and more
Than this mind could imagine
God is calling me every name
He can think of under the Son

Worldly philosophy teacheth one
To follow thine heart
Yet God hath taught the heart is misleading
And if the heart condemneth us
To remember God is greater than thine heart
I follow the spirit
Mine soul,
Not man's philosophy
(Follow thy heart)
How false oh wretched man!!

there is a crack
a crack in the clay
a crack   in the vessel for
water today . it is quite small
it's hard for to see . it's always
in you . it's always in me . the
master carries this vessel
for to bathe and to wash
and another sound
vessel which

is balanced across
his strong broad
shoulders . one on each
side . with a stick for to balance
both for the ride . the man dipped
his pots . w ith water to seek . but the
*** with t he crack in it began to leak
as the m  an passed . on his way to
his **  me . the leak in the ***
began to flow
W                                  
A                       ­           
T                                  
E                ­                  
R                                  

S        ­                          
P                                  
I                                  
L                                  
L                           ­       
E                                  
D                    ­              
down upon the verge of the path
where there were trees, flowers
and grass . the master looked back
where he had been . one side was
withered . but the other was green
a riot of colors from the blooms and
the trees . told that they had had
water . the master was pleased
so he placed the cracked vessel
in its own special place . and
walked away happy . With a

smile on his face!

This poem illustrates how
even cracked vessels have an
important place in the world

I hope that this is not too
difficult to read :-*

Wind blowing through the air
Trees dancing as they sway with the rhythm of the wind
Sun glaring down on all of humanity
capturing everything in its vision

Thinking, Wondering..
What is it like to be a star in the night sky
to be seen together as one
"Stars" look at their beauty
how they belong with each other
illuminating the sky

oh what i'd do not to feel alone
no difference made when im with friends
it seems they only give me temporary happiness
there is nothing here that can fill the void

365 lonely days, 52 lonely weeks
everyday its the same ol' repetitive crap
eat, pray, sleep, think, eat, pray, sleep, think
****, its such a bore here, what I'd do to never feel alone

He's the hand I felt on my shoulder as the tornado went over me . He's the one who saved me from choking to death in my own ***** . He's the one who sat beside me on the mountaintop as I cried over my wrongs . And if I ever kneeled before him he would take my hands and raise me so I could kiss his cheek . Who is God ? My best friend who has saved me time and time again . Who understands my limits and my failures but forgives me each and every time . One who is always there for me to lean on when I am tired , lonely , discouraged . One who has shown me heaven and promised a place there for me .
Who is God ? He is in me , my past , my present , and future . I am nothing without my God .

These hands hang down
and my heart droops within;
these feet are tired - my back sags
shouldering so much,
visible and invisible.
Oh Lord, sustain me,
I pray!
Lend me
strength to
continue,
lest I should
fall and not
be able
to get
up.

And in that moment I believed in us
    we were in love,
        Ah God,

And how I dreamed of you & those long days in
love,
         love,
                  lovers from the start
                roaming so free, those stars,
                we were lunar lovers
                that night of the eclipse
                a full moon in the sky
                little did we know
                our ghosts of the past
                would haunt me haunt me

That's when I learnt the art of absence, Ah
    God is this love,
    God is this love,
       Ah Thee

And the death defying pull that missing
you,
         you,
                  could only ever know of
                  or fear to know of
                  but O I sensed a presence
                  and goosebumps formed on my skin
                  and an echo formed in my chest
                  and I felt connected to nothing
                  Ah me, I knew God of You
                  had dreams in store for me

So next time you walk beside me
My eyes wide open
Let it be known
    then
Embrace me tight
    light the path to Eden
    that day

In Your arms Lord God
     (forever)

I know that life is tough, and getting tougher as well.
This is why we need to rely on Strength from God.
For it shall be the thing that keeps you from giving up.
For we are made into Great Warriors fighting for God.
Not in flesh but in Spirit with his words of truth and justice.
For this world justice is not the same as Christ justice .
For we fight with Love, Gods unconditional Love here.
While this worldly warriors fight with human understanding.
With human strength but our Strength is by far greater.
Because our strength is not of this world but from God.

And Death knocked at my door and asked if I was ready with my Coffin
"Coffin for what?",I asked
"It will be your roof to save you the rain",Death replied.
Have you come with some morphine?",It was my turn to ask.
"Morphine?", said death in confusion.
Yes,Morphine, I'm not going down without a fight so by the time I hit the canvas you'll need it to soothe the pain
No, I wasn't ready for a fight",Death sighed, guess you'll have to die another day.
I'm inspired by people who battle cancer, It's ******* them just incase you haven't seen one
