Dreams

I thought silence could

make someone sleep

I thought an empty table

without books could make one rest

But I never thought

silence could amplify emptiness

And darkness could Illuminate unrest.

When I was three and ten

I heard a wise man say

Dream somebody

but never love your dreams

Love somebody

but never cast her to

eternal dream.

"My friends, don't be afraid of people. They can kill you, but after that, there is nothing else they can do. God is the one you must fear. Not only can he take your life, but he can throw you into hell. God is certainly the one you should fear!" - Luke 12:4-5

everyday could be our last day, and we are not guaranteed another day on this earth, so we must live for God in the present...

Life is short, death is sure, hell is real, JESUS Saves, think about it...

I'm so glad that I'm HIS <3

~~Look at the power of faith!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~~ Court Date: After living what I felt was a 'decent' life, my time on earth came to the end. The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought to be a court house. The doors opened and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the defense table. As I looked around I saw the 'prosecutor.' He was a villainous looking gent who snarled as he stared at me. He definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen. I sat down and looked to my left and there sat My Attorney, a kind and gentle looking man whose appearance seemed so familiar to me, I felt I knew Him. The corner door flew open and there appeared the Judge in full flowing robes. He commanded an awesome presence as He moved across the room, I couldn't take my eyes off of Him. As He took His seat behind the bench, He said, 'Let us begin.' The prosecutor rose and said, 'My name is Satan and I am here to show you why this person belongs in hell.' He proceeded to tell of lies that I told, things that I stole, and in the past when I cheated others, Satan told of other horrible Perversions that were once in my life and the more he spoke, the further down in my seat I sank. I was so embarrassed that I couldn't look at anyone, even my own Attorney, as the Devil told of sins that even I had completely forgotten about. As upset as I was at Satan for telling all these things about me, I was equally upset at My Attorney who sat there silently not Offering any form of defense at all. I know I had been guilty of those things, but I had done some good in my life - couldn't that at least equal out part of the harm I'd done? Satan finished with a fury and said, 'This person belongs in hell, is guilty of all that I have charged and there is not a person who can prove otherwise.' When it was His turn, My Attorney first asked if He might approach the bench. The Judge allowed this over the strong objection of Satan, and beckoned Him to come forward. As He got up and started walking, I was able to see Him in His full splendor and majesty. I realized why He seemed so familiar; this was Jesus representing me, my Lord and my Savior. He stopped at the bench and softly said to the Judge, 'Hi, Dad,' and then He turned to address the court. 'Satan was correct in saying that this person has sinned, I won't deny any of these allegations. And, yes, the wage of sin is death, and this person deserves to be punished. Jesus took a deep breath and turned to His Father with outstretched arms and proclaimed, 'However, I died on the cross so that this person might have eternal life and has accepted Me as Savior, so this person is Mine.' My Lord continued with, 'This person's name is written in the Book of Life, and no one can snatch this one from Me. Satan still does not understand yet. This person is not to be given justice, but rather mercy.' As Jesus sat down, He quietly paused, looked at His Father and said, 'There is nothing else that needs to be done.' 'I've done it all.' The Judge lifted His mighty hand and slammed the gavel down. The following words bellowed from His lips.. 'This person is free.' 'The penalty has already been paid in full.' 'Case dismissed.' As my Lord led me away, I could hear Satan ranting and raving, 'I won't give up, I will win the next one.' I asked Jesus as He gave me my instructions where to go next, 'Have you ever lost a case?' Christ lovingly smiled and said, 'Everyone that has come to Me and asked Me to represent them has received the same verdict as you, ~Paid In Full~'

Passing this on to anyone you consider a friend, (as I have done here), will bless you both. 'Stop telling God how big your storm is. Instead, tell the storm how big your God is!'

WHAT GOD HAS EVER DONE FOR ME

"What has God ever done for me?" grumbled an angry twenty-three year old man named Victor. "I mean, why should I believe this so-called God guy loves me as you say He does when He hasn't done anything to help me or my life?!"

"Oh?" said his uncle sitting next to him on the bus. "What do you feel has gone wrong in your life that God caused?" he continued.

Victor snapped, "I didn't say God caused it, but He sure didn't do anything to help me out! I had to deal with some pretty bad things all on my own, and, no thanks to Him, I fixed them all on my own too!"

His uncle nodded slightly and replied, "I assume you are referring to the hard time you began having when you got involved in street drugs and heavy drinking?"

"That's part of it," responded Victor as he glared out the bus window.

His uncle turned to look at him, and then said, "Did your parent's teach you, or tell you to get involved with these dangerous substances that can affect how you think and behave?"

"Of course not!" snapped Victor.

"I'm guessing they tried warning you, but you chose not to obey, correct?" responded his uncle as he straightened himself out in his seat. He continued, "And they probably taught you the importance of eating right, taking care of your health, staying close to God, and being careful about the friends you chose, right?"

Victor hesitated, then angrily replied, "Alright!, They were MY choices, not my parent's! I take full responsibility for my actions!"

Victor's uncle again turned to look at him, then quickly replied, "Do you? About everything?"

Victor looked puzzled. "What are you talking about?"

His uncle straightened his back one more time, and replied, "Do you also take responsibility for the fact it was YOU who turned your back on God? You keep asking what has God done for you, but it would seem to me that the question really is, what have YOU done for God lately?"

Victor immediately snapped at his uncle, "Hey, I prayed out to God a few times to make all the bad things go away, but He didn't!"

His uncle nodded, reached for Victor's hand, and said, "He (God) didn't, or YOU didn't?"

Victor quickly replied, "I kept on drinking, doing drugs, being disrespectful to my family, and other things I probably shouldn't have, but God could have stopped me, made all the bad things go away, and He didn't! He ignored me, or maybe He doesn't even exist at all so that's why He did nothing!"

As he held his nephew's hand, Victor's uncle calmly responded, "Victor, God is not a puppet master who pulls our strings so we will do what He wants us to do. He loves us so much that He gave us free- will. Even though you may have wanted God to take all the bad things away, your actions and choices revealed that you really didn't want anything to change. How do I know that? Because isn't it true you kept on drinking, taking drugs, and being disrespectful to your family?"

Victor was at a loss for words.

"Words are often shallow, Victor. It is our actions which prove what is really in our heart. What do you think your actions have showed God? Have they showed Him you love Him and want to be close to Him; that you want Him to be Lord of your life? Or, do they show Him that you want to ignore His commands, and remain in the lifestyle you have been living, and only call on Him when the going gets tough?"

The look on Victor's face began to change. The anger and resentment he had been holding in so long toward his family and God suddenly seemed to melt away. "I guess I had been blaming my parents and God, when I should have been blaming my self," he said quietly. Real life application: Many people blame God for what they themselves have chosen. We must remember, when we choose the action, we also choose the consequence.

As a loving Heavenly Father, God wants the best for us, and He is willing and able to deliver us from even the most dire circumstances. However, we need to also want it for ourselves, not just through lip- service, but through word AND deed.

KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD (in memory of Francis M. * 1964-2009)

So many faces, so many races
Different voices, different choices
Some are mad, while others laugh
Some live alone with no better half
Others grieve while others curse
And others mourn behind a big black hearse
Some are pure and some half-bred
Some are sober and some are wasted
Some are rich because of fate and
Some are poor with no food on their plate
Some stand out while others blend
Some are fat and stout while some are thin
Some are friends and some are foes
Some have some while some have most

Every color and every hue
Is represented by me and you
Take a slide in the slope
Take a look in the kaleidoscope
Spinnin' round, make it twirl
In this kaleidoscope world

Some are great and some are few
Others lie while some tell the truth
Some say poems and some do sing
Others sing through their guitar strings
Some know it all while some act dumb
Let the bassline strum to the bang of the drum
Some can swim while some will sink
And some will find their minds and think
Others walk while others run
You can't talk peace and have a gun
Some are hurt and start to cry
Don't ask me how don't ask me why
Some are friends and some are foes
Some have some while some have most

Every color and every hue
Is represented by me and you
Take a slide in the slope
Take a look in the kaleidoscope
Spinnin' round, make it twirl
In this kaleidoscope world

this must be love (song lyrics i made for tiia)

if only i could see you
if only i could hold you in my arms,
everything will be alright.

guide me,
touch me,
use me,
build me,
Hold me,
and never let me go.

i could wait for that one day,
to see you
face to face
i will walk on
and hold you in my arms,
i will guide you,
catch you,
and never gonna let you fall,
i love you,
this will never end

right now

the wild music upstairs
changes to mellow
the party must have ended
or just beginning
i can hear their beds creaking

sometimes people lose
their decency quicker
than it is acquired
i dont know
things are not what
they seem anymore
has it occured to you
when you are in a bus
or a train or something and
you look outside the window
and it is too dark and what
you only see is a reflection
of yourself staring back.

this is how i feel right now
what about if i can just fade
i doubt the world will miss
much in my absence
this is how i feel right now.
