Run It Well

 You have a race to run, so run it well..

In trials and sweat, while you rest a spell.

There will be times you are challenged and times you are not..

Yet through it all, you will escape from every plot.


There will be days of discouragement, when you cannot go on..

There will be tears to cry and times of forlorn.

As you climb every hill, the sun will rise..

So down in the valley, you will see through every disguise.


Seeds will be planted and fruits will be reaped..

Words will be spoken and trouble will be heaped.

As the crow flies, may be a phrase you will use..

Yet through every dawning, on a ship you will cruise.

Tomorrow May Be Too Late

Image
 Do not wait until something happens to you, before you call upon the Lord.  Time is running out and you may not get the chance to even say JESUS, in your time of need. You must make preparations and be equipped for any eventuality. You prepare in advance to cook a meal. You prepare and you study for tests and exams. You prepare and make certain, you have every document necessary for a Visa appointment. You prepare for the rainy weather and disaster. You prepare your resume for a job. You prepare for an event. You prepare for the clothes you wear. BUT do you prepare for eternity? Do you get into your closet and pray? Do you lift your voice in worship to the Lord? Do you fast and present your body as a living sacrifice? Do you go forsake the assembly of God's people? Do you tell others about Jesus? Have you repented of your sins and accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour? Are you part of the glorious church... the one without spot and wrinkles?  Everything you have...

Sorrow Is Coming

Image
 Above it all, you are the God who hides.. For your heartfelt yearning, is to those who abides. The covenant of everlasting, to the sons of men.. Will mark every footstep, till time shall transcend. Thus saith the Lord, to those who have ears.. Sorrow is coming, without any cares. Surely the tempter, might rage upon you.. But be of good courage, for the old shall be new. Speak to the stranger, whose delight is for fame.. Look beyond the natural, for life is not a game. Look unto Jesus, for HE is the way.. And assemble yourself, while you kneel and pray. Unto the seed, of the royal birth.. The statutes and precepts, are there for your girt. Pollute not your temple, for your members to yield.. And rise up with fortune, for the Lord is your shield. Surely the latter, shall be whiter than snow.. Toward the setting sun, where darkness cannot go. Like crystal clear waters, in whom there is life.. Behold all the beauty, of the Lord's only wife. In the secret place, where hope there reside...

A Good Soldier

Image
 Oh Lord, remind me that I am living in the good land. The land of promise. The land of opportunity. The land of life and abundance. Heavenly Father, I pray that the power of your presence inside me, is greater than every pressure of life. Jesus, you brought me out of the iron furnace.. out of Egypt, to inherit what you have set before me to receive. Remind me everyday, to stir up the gift of God that is in me, for you have not given me a spirit of fear. Oh Lord, when I am afflicted, then I know that I am a partaker of the gospel, according to the power of God. Father God, my King and keeper of my heart, I am grateful that before the world began, I was called with a holy calling, according to your word in 2 Timothy. Thank you, that as a good soldier in the army of the Lord, I can endure hardship, because in You, I am always perfected by your grace. Thank you Lord, that your word is not bound, but is the breaker of chains and prison bars. Abundantly with gratitude multiplied, I know...
