Calling All Israelites

Here we are
500 years after
they said we would never know again
the name of Israel
We were shaken to our foundation
brought to the depths of hell
cast into a strange land- Another country
Breathing in all the pain and sorrows
of oppression, captivity, murders,
distress, closed doors, hopeless dreams,
false messages, and the false gods of the ghetto.
We've seen rain mixed with dark clouds,
hurricanes and cruel tempest
been through the fire
neglect and emptiness
But none of our enemies considered,
nor did they know
the God of Jacob
Who keepth covenant for thousands of generations
and who will by no means break his word
500 years after
through it all
He separated a Remnant
for Himself
elect and chosen;
save by the blood of the Lamb
delivered by the arm of the Great King
Crowned by the hand of the Prince of God the Father-
Christ our Lord


Romans 11:29
Is. 45:17
Acts 3:20,21

The Warrior

The warrior awakes
towards Jerusalem he turns
and kneels with arms lifted up to heaven
Praises are whispered to the God of Jacob
cosmic communication
psychic awakening
God hears the prayers of the righteous
quietness, silence
the mind centered
Listening
to the voice of the cosmos
eyes closed
chest rise and fall breathing in
the sweet air God gives
eyes open
The journey begins
The journey continues
on the way that God has instructed him
till the Kingdom is established
and the service to the great king of the city is accomplished
He continues on
sword in one hand, the holy scriptures in the next
It is enough.
On his journey he goes


Ps. 5:1,2,3

The way of Life

And so we
come to this
moment
A time of choices
decisions and paths before us-
May God grant us strength and wisdom
to choose Life
and that which is right and good
for the human soul.
The way of righteousness is sure;
A road leading to palaces,
gardens, and the sounds of choirs
praising their Holy God-
A peace transcending human thought ( John 14:27),
greater than the sublime,
more beautiful than the blossom of an orchid,
with rays of light more abundant than the sun-
A light that clothes those who choose this way ( Matt. 17:1,2)

New Jerusalem

Imagine a world
free from strife of war,
bigotry, evil men, and wicked mentalities
If we can
for a slight moment
one would gain a glimpse
into the true potential
God has placed in man.
In that world,
instead of violence and desire for ill gotten gain
the mind would be free
to dwell on the sublime
the beauty of art, life healing science, culture,
music, poetry, true learning expounded by wise men,
to harness the power of the soil to feed a city,
a country, and a world without destroying the earth.
The mind would be free
to reach new levels of creativity
to rebuild the old wasted and desolate
cities of bygone ages ( Is. 61:4)
creating cities of dazzling beauty with exquisite palaces
and towers inlayed with precious stones and rear metals
A world whose royal city possesses streets of true gold
so polished it resembles glass
Whose gates are never closed-
for why would one steal what is already yours
nor shall such thoughts enter into one so blessed.
In this world
the mind would be free to worship God
in the beauty of holiness
continually ( Rev. 21:21, 22,23,24,25,26,27)


The hope of the world:
Psalm 69:35,36
