Why Poetry?

Poems paint pictures
Of our canvas within
Touching the soul
Allowing light in.

Jesus’ means, of building churches
Equip our saints, disciple making
Spiritual reproduction, multiplying
May our leaders, start awakening.

“You will show me, the path of life
In Your presence, fullness of joy
Weeping, may endure for a night
But in the morning, comes joy.”

For we’re made, for His glory
For His will, and pleasure
Our life, is not ours
We are His special treasure.

So, acknowledge our blame
Whenever, we succumb
To wrong lusts, and desires
Repent, seeking God’s Son.

Now, in place of carnal thinking
That feed our feelings, reactions
We’re renewed, in our minds
And godly thoughts, lead to actions.

Yet our Master, Creator
Set limits, in love
Has given us guidance
The true Captain, above.

For we’re given free will
Seek eternal treasures
Yes, choose God and His ways
Not fleeting, fleshly pleasures.

Are you pressing on upward
To reach higher ground
Are you seeking the Lord
In His presence be found?

How do you treat others
As a giver, or taker?
To unburden your load
Or to share, God’s favors?
