The Bread

You are in the oven

Like bread

Rising to the top

We think we are the only loaf

But we are a dime and dozen

But some have more dough

Some bake more slow

Or a different type all together

The heat is up high

You are being redefined

You wish the waiting would stop

Making a promise

Of a perfect rise would be a lie

It all depends on the care you are given

Which is based a heart that’s driven

Don’t put this fire out

Don’t look to other the breads but the baker

He’s got his on apron and gloves

He knows how firm and how hot

We think we are the only loaf

He laughs at our quarrels

He sees our yeast

To His eyes we are a feast

Don’t put this fire out

Encouragement for Today

Victory starts at the cross not mental willpower!

Jesus Healed During Sabbath

Jesus cleaned feet

He said it’s hard for the rich

To enter the Kingdom of God

This statement my seem flawed

But our hearts must be submitted

The lowly will rise

While the high will no longer be lifted

He threw tables of the pretend

And to those who follow Him

He is your forever friend

This answer is plain

He knows every intention

At every village He didn’t heal

He knew what their hearts concealed

But He said healing during Sabbath is fine

He came to bind up the broken hearted

He said He’ll leave the 99 for the one any time

And He welcome the prodigals home

God looks to and fro the earth

He looks for obedient hearts

With a hunger coming forth

Care what God Says about You

Trust what God says about you more than what man says!

Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.

Proverbs 29:5 NIV

When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves they are not wise. 2 Corinthians 10:12 NIV

Silence the negative talks in your head and know the Lord is for you! The world is loud and distracting but God’s voice is gentle and comforting!

Endless Possibilities

The wonders of the sky

It’s so magnificent

No reason to ask why

I wish I was a bird who could fly

I wish gravity I could defy

But one day

I just may

Endless possibilities

To those who believe

Maybe on the other side

I am glad that I flied

Scripture Encouragement from 1 Thessalonians

Good news! Troubles ahead but God is faithful if we submit to Him! Idols keep us from God’s heart but serving Him protects us from future judgement! You may be saved but wouldn’t rather serve God with your whole heart?

“They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath” 1 Thessalonians 1:9-10

Red Sea Moment

The Israelites and Pharaoh

The 10 plagues

Hail, frogs and locust

It’s no hocus pocus

It’s God’s wrath

Who will win?

You do the math

The powers to be

Are obsessed with greed

Every time we buy something

We are just watering their seed

The supply chain

Is strained

Pharaoh cracks the whips

He needs you

Your security and wealth

Is in his ghastly grips

The more the structures fall

The more we are awakened

The red sea is closing in

But we will make it through

But whatever you do

Don’t go back

Keep moving straight

These moments are pregnant

The blood represents more than sea

They are connected to many unborn lives

Come on children, cross over me with me

The Carpenter Knows Me

The Carpenter knows me
He has fashioned me
For such a time as this
In this thing called life
With all its plot twists

I started as wood
Even my heart
But he broke me apart
He used chisels
And screws
To make me new

I hated this process
How it still goes on!
I measured my success
By how polished others were
But you said, “You are a beautiful mess”

But you taught me through the pain
And clipping away rusting character traits
Ones that are way past an expiration date
I thought I had solutions in my mind
But I see the tools start to rotate

And I know it’s time
To change me in a whole new way
At a molecular level
Get past the agony
And resist the devil

You have always been there
You won’t stop now
I can always feel you somehow
Even in all this peeling away
Scarred people run from the Lord
But renewed ones run toward

Fruit We Bear

Christians are supposed to be known by their love for each other

But even the church can be toxic

No wonder so many people are agnostic

Love we are supposed to represent

Not just to force them to repent

It’s more than just the rules

It’s heart of the matter

Jesus made that very clear

Prophets are known by the fruits they bear

There will be many false prophets and Christs

They will adding miracles as a part of the price

They will charge per demon casted out

I know we are in the end times

But where’s the hope the Bible talks about?

I know there will every disease, war and drought

But what about taking about the glory coming?

And saints joining hands while satan’s agenda is crumbling

It’s more than the propaganda and hysteria

People are suffering enough as it is

And the unbelievers need hope

As they are at the end of their rope

They need more than a verse

They has been rehearsed

They need love

I have been hurt by hypocrites

Wolves in sheep clothing

I hope they will reap what they been sowing

Blessed are the poor spirit for theirs is the kingdom

Proverbs and Ecclesiastes is filled with so much wisdom

Everything is meaningless apart from God

The Trailblazer

Everything is going be fine

I feel like my heart is blind

But you remind

That love is worth the time

Yes, I have been hurt

Had my name smeared in the dirt

But a new identity is emerging forth

But watch out! I know my worth!

I won’t let you tell me I am nothing

I know you weren’t bluffing

I’ll shield myself from words that are crushing

Because I know I amount to something!

My purpose comes from my Creator

My one and only Savior

Even when the enemies words cut like a razor

With God I am a trailblazer!
