My Life in A Verse - Psalms 25:21

As I walk towards your light I am blinded,
But out of the darkness I am reminded.
I am not alone however true it may feel,
My heart has gone through pain, its real.
But integrity and uprightness follow me there,
They protect and give me a hope that is rare.
It is not my job to make a situation just,
I alone am called to trust.
In what I cannot see but bow before,
And in humble sacrifice ask to fill me more.
So many ask how a good God like you,
Could let evil run if you are so true.
Simply I say "My God is sovereign and reigns in grace,
but sometimes you cant grow if you stay in this place."
He longs to reveal himself to you fully and complete,
And claim eternal victory and mock the enemies defeat.
I am choosing to walk the steps of his for seen path for me,
Along I go knowing his love has set me free.
There is no other place I would rather be!

I Love You Big Brother. CWH

Today would be your birthday, I don't know what to say,
So I will sit by this tree and bow my head to pray.
I look back at my life over the last 8 years,
And all I feel is emotion followed by tears.
You didn't get to see me grow so tall,
Or for my first love how hard I did fall.
You missed me walking across the high school stage,
And over all the poems I have written you would have read every page.
You missed being able to beat up the bully,
And understand my heart fully.
Along you went to complete your path,
I wish you could have stayed to help me with my math.
But you left before you got to see my life,
And how I used to be a wife.
"I promise I wont miss the rest,
I love you little sister, wait for me, I know you will always be the best". <3

Battle Cry.

I have to trust in what I don't see,
Giving all of me.
Not relying on myself to do good,
But remembering the man who died on that infamous piece of wood.
It compels me to share his amazing grace,
Get down on my face in this place.
And declare he owns all rhyme, reason and space.
We are called to practice what we preach,
In order that we may reach,
A lost and dying world that needs a savior to their souls,
To wash away their sin as black as coals.
We must be different and stand out in a crowd,
I can hear those sweet words now "Son I'm so proud"
I will live each day for him,
Although sometimes life is grim,
 I have hope in the life that will follow this one,
So towards Jesus I will run.

Something People Dont Know.

He doesn't know how much that hurt,
I can see pain hidden in his own eyes.
Trying not to reveal his fear so he covers them in lies.
I didn't see it coming, it came by surprise,
You think one thing is real life now,
But all your left is wondering just how,
He could seem so genuine in what he did believe,
In the end all he knew how to do was leave.
Maybe he can redeem the broken, shameful sin,
If he surrenders to Jesus he will for surely win.
Breaking down walls that were built at the start,
Layers of pain, sorrow and fear have trapped his heart.
He didn't know how to escape the prison he made,
The light within him didn't shine, it could only fade.
Seeking reconciliation to the devastation left behind,
All he wanted to do was find his peace of mind.
The next steps will be surrendering his pride,
At the very moment it happens within him the Holy Spirit will reside.
El Qanna is jealous for his loved one,
Even if that means everything they hold dear has to come undone.
There is a sweet beauty that comes from that broken place,
"Jesus, here I am on my face,
Please show me your mercy and grace.
I never want to follow the flesh down that path,
Separated from you I will find nothing but wrath.
Keep me near to you never to part,
I belong to you, your perfectly crafted piece of art."

This is Independence Day.

The freedom bells ring so loud,
My heart beats fast amongst the crowd.
I  walked out, no more shame,
I'm done playing a pointless game.
I've conquered the enemy, he has claimed defeat,
I stood my ground and didn't retreat.
Its amazing to see yourself brand new,
The days of old are gone and along come the true.
When you look back and see who I was,
Making me stronger is all it does.
Glimmers of hope emerge from the shadows deep,
Secrets of my past threaten and leap.
I get out of that place of dark fear,
The sound of victory is all I hear.
I don't have to be afraid anymore,
Oh to not have a clue what just might be in store,
God I'll wait for you to give me more.

Explosion of the Soul.

Trust in what your heart screams,
You don't always have to know what it all means.
Live in the moments that compose your existence,
Give in and let down your resistance.
Doing and being pleased in all that you do,
Is the secret of old known by few.
If you let those clips of time pass you by,
You will be left puzzled and wondering why.
The feelings inside you said just wait,
Till something random happened like fate.
But that doesn't always come to pass,
Like hoping rust will go back to pure brass.
We are all just given one soul to bear,
So give up your pride and cast every care.
Make the most of what is this day,
And at the end of your life you can say.
"Ive lived and loved the memories I keep,
Now I can go in peace to eternal sleep,
Knowing I don't regret anything I have come to reap"...

One of those Places.

Leaving a mountain is a dividing thing,
The echoes of words said hang in the air and ring.
You leave a piece of yourself amongst the trees,
Those sweet moments with your savior on your knees.
Friendships are permanently bonded together,
Our hearts were laid out in the light of forever.
Sometimes you can feel that going far is the only way,
That you can get clarity and just pray.
I cant help but wonder why it is,
That we feel we need to be close to the earth to be truly his.
One thing I have decided to do from now on,
Is not wait to be healed on the peaks we were just upon.
Jesus wants to meet us in our own town,
And grace us with a heavenly crown.
I will take the feelings of this beautiful place,
I got to see a little glimpse of God's face,
Oh how sweet and wonderful is his grace.

This is my Confession.

Stop and wait on me my precious jewel,
I am living water that brings constant renewal.
I hold you in grace so rest here a while,
Oh how I long just to see your beautiful smile.
I fill every need you ever could want,
Please lay in my pasture and out of it all its you I will flaunt.
Give your soul a break by my bubbling brook,
And hold my hand and I will guide all the steps so you don't have to look.
I walk with you dear because I delight in you,
And through the dim valley I will see you through.
All the fears and tears I will push from your fragile mind,
And comfort you with my son and his spirit combined.
Then I will lay out a magnificent feast,
And defend you from every kind of beast.
The anointing of my spirit will fall upon your divine head,
With my oil I will recount all I have said.
My goodness and love will become permanent, like shadows that ever follow,
Because my light will shine on you the darkness will never swallow.
Lets finish this journey with a celebration in my home,
Because never again will you face life's terrain alone.
Remember its grace that has kept my glory within you, my piece of art,
Its amazing that I made you and we never have to depart.

All the People.

I sit in this circle and what do I see?
I see reflections that look a lot like me.
The same design seems to lay in us all,
We all make mistakes and we sometimes fall.
I take a second glance on the faces here,
That friend across the room has also known fear.
The stranger to my left has cried the same pain,
The acquaintance to my right can also hear the rain.
The point to these thoughts seem clear to me now,
Its amazing just how,
Alike we are and have to walk through this life,
The good, bad, ugly and the strife.
Better to be united and not walk alone,
Toward Jesus and the seats for us waiting by his throne.
So let us honor each other at all cost,
Because if we don't our body is lost.
Don't see the people in this circle as they are,
They are glorified children without a single scar.
Live as such and you will surely go far.

Do Work.

I am God's workmanship this is true,
I'm a product of fine craftsmanship, something new.
I started as deconstructed pieces strewn all around,
Then Jesus Christ built my foundation on solid ground.
Detail by detail I was thought out,
Every fiber of my being simply has to shout.
The magnificent glory of our coming king,
Humanity feels it in the way creation cant help but sing.
It all points back to a careful plan,
That sent Yahweh's child, the Son of Man.
To die and be broken so my blemishes are hidden,
And promise me that his love will never be ridden.
I live to honor the one I cannot explain,
Because not all the mysteries are revealed surrounding his reign.
One thing I know this is for sure,
Whatever I do I am completely pure.
So now that I'm built on a kingdom that will last,
I will move forward as if I never knew my past.
