Amazing Love

LORD i can't imagine
where would i be if it wasn't for your passion
your power and your action
the cross that you bore is a symbol of our fashion

you wore it on your back as
they worked on their backhand swinging and attacking
it's love without asking
a brand new beginning that we gain through substraction

through the painful reaction
the ungrateful masses cheered when they thrashed him
Satan tried to cash in
the chips that he gained through the game of distraction

not knowing that the Captain
was still in control of the things that were happening
his death was a fraction
his resurrected power came by God's satisfaction

It's amazing

You're the King, You're the Highest
dependable and true in a world of surprises
bringing sight to my blindness
a vision that is seen through your love and your kindness

My LORD, my Messiah
it's obvious to me everytime I'm reminded
your love is defining
my life and my purpose, fulfilled by your timing

it's your grace that i'm finding
when i seek your face in the midst of my climbing
when i struggle and i'm whinning
could it be because of your purpose and designing?

if you seek, you will find him
but the double-minded will never find the Diamond
in the dark though it's shining
reflected by his love, man it's so glorifying

It's amazing.

The Force of Divorce (part 1)

I don’t think we truly understand what divorce is and why God hates it. For example, if I gave you the Merriam Webster’s definition of divorce, the action or instance of legally dissolving a marriage , more than likely you'll find that definition insufficient. If you are divorced or your parents are divorced, you know that definition lacks depth and substance. It’s like a survivor of a devastating hurricane describing his experience as “I witnessed a tropical cyclone with winds of 156 mph that was accompanied by heavy rain thunder and lightning.” You know that surviving a category 5 hurricane is bit more involved than announcing a weather report. (Ask anyone who survived Hurricane Katrina.) And yet every survivor’s story is unique and personal. I especially believe we don’t get what divorce does to our children. I’m not saying that I completely understand it either. I’ve never been divorced, (not even close), but I do know how it affected me as a kid. ...

Real with God, Real with Life

One of the most entertaining, but pointless interactions with my kids is when they are telling me what they think I want to hear. They, of course, disagree because they're at a point of desperation. They're trying to convince me of something they think they want or need, all the while hoping that my already made up mind will change. When it doesn't, it's usually the end of the world. Again. In the process of growing closer to God, He made me aware of a similar pattern in own my life. For example, if I was in need of something from God, I thought it would be better to tell Him what I thought He wanted to hear from me, rather than what I really wanted to say. I struggled between feelings of guilt and a desire to express my maturity. The result usually ended up with me not being completely honest with myself and God. I've seen so many preachers endorsing a "blab it and grab it" approach to relating to God and calling it "holiness". I never...

In Memory of One Forgotten

I lost him today. Can still feel his absence As his life slipped away No words to pray Knowing the day would come Still not sure what to say Or even what to feel Could this real? How do you mourn someone you weren't incredibly close to? And yet I grieved as if I'm supposed to Fast forward How fast the years go by It's not easier but still I try To honor him properly Though the ashes fly Still miss my absent father I can't lie No grave or tombstone to place the roses by Just the rose in my heart that will never die
