Seek the Pearl

Let him who seeks continue to seek until he finds.
When he finds, he will become astonished.
When he becomes astonished, he will be king.
And when he becomes king he will find rest.

The Attitude of Jesus

Who being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made Himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to death, even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him a Name above every name, that every knee should bow in heaven and on earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Glory of God the Father!

Psalm scroll {lost books of the bible}

Surely a maggot cannot praise you or a graveworm recount your lovingkindness. But the living can praise you, even those who stumble can hail you. In revealing your kindness to them and by your righteousness do you enlighten them. Because in your hand is the soul of every living thing; the breath of all flesh you have given. Deal with us O'Lord, according to your goodness, according to your great mercy, and according to your many righteous deeds. The Lord has listened to the voice of those who love His Name and has not deprived them of His lovingkindness. Bless be the Lord, who executes righteous deeds, crowning His Saints with lovingkindness and mercy. My soul cries out to praise your Name, to sing high praises for your faithfulness--of praise of you there is no end. Near death was I for my sins, and my iniquities sold me to the grave, but you saved me, O'Lord, according to your great mercy, and according to your righteous deeds. Indeed I have loved your Name, and in your protection I have found refuge. When I remember your might, my heart is brave and I lean upon your mercies. Forgive my sins O'Lord, and purify me from my iniquity. Keep me safe in a spirit of faith and knowledge, and do not let me be dishonored in ruin. Do not let Satan rule over me, or an unclean spirit; don't let pain or evil inclinations take possession of my bones. For you O'Lord, are my praise, and in you do I hope all day long. Let my brothers rejoice with me and the house of my father, who are astonished at your graciousness......... Forever I will rejoice in you.

The Family Human

we are all one, what we do affects others, with prejudice and hatred we're destroying one another.
Who is wrong, who is right? Keeping score to fuss and fight.
Whether we live, or whether we die, because of us someone will cry.
Memories today, fade into tomorrows, misery lingers on, can't we learn from all these sorrows?
The end of everyone of us is basically the same, a cold dark grave, a return to dust, to the earth from which we came.
We are family, separate cells of the same being, sharing love and mercy is required for our healing.
We all have the same Father, who watches from above, and gives to everyone of us His guidance and His love.
Only with faith in Him, and in the truth we learn, because our bodies change, our spirit's are reborn.
The wrath sent on the world, will never touch His seed, because we know what we give is what will be received.
{Romans 12:3-5} As God's messenger I give each of you God's warning. Be honest in your estimate of yourselves, measuring your value by how much faith God has given you. Just as there are many parts to our bodies, so it is with Christ's body. We are all parts of it, and it takes everyone of us to make it complete, for we each have different work to do. So we belong to each other, and each needs all the others.

Blame and Mercy

How can you be so justified in your anger, who do you think you are?
You scream, you yell, making life hell, your worse than you think we are!
How can you be so self-righteous, after all the wrongs you've done?
You say what is right, 'til it's you in the light, then you stand and accuse everyone!
How can you be so demanding, as if your the only one?
You laugh in the face of humilities disgrace, so sad is the nothing you've won!
Where is this place called denial, where reason and sanity flee?
Where what's right to you, even you don't do, oppressing all those who are free!
How can you be so judgemental, condemning in arrogant pride,
it's evil thats true, but then so are you, with forgiveness and mercy denied!
How can you be so controlling, as if you created your life?
Your opinions you shove, while neglecting real love, your only creation is strife!
How can you be so hateful, of others different than you?
Since no two are the same, who is it you blame, to justify the violence you do?
Would you like to make your love grow, knowing you are guilty of all this?
Ask God to forgive, and with everyone live, in love through the grace of Lord Jesus!
{Isaiah 26:10-11} Your kindness to the wicked does not make them do good; they keep on doing wrong and take no notice of your majesty. They do not listen when you threaten; they will not look to see your upraised fist. Show them how much you love your people. Perhaps then they will be ashamed!

Christ Forward

I often times feel the need to be more than I am, to share the love and joy I feel when I let go the dam.
Empathy and compassion, that I have bottled up, the pain and suffering that goes with these, overflows my cup.
I ache inside for all of us, seeing our needs so great,
Knowing that it's Christ who heals, and we should imitate.
Those in darkness don't understand, love is a definite must,
that all these gifts we have to share, are also gifts to us.
They choose to give the credit, to a being just like them,
I want to let them know that what we have is given by Him.
I want to sing out," Praise the Lord, His greatness is all around,
and I wish to share with you within my heart what the Lord has bound".
It does not come from me, my flesh, which corrupts the same as theirs,
we ask the Lord to make us do what in Spirit will make us heirs.
Love and comfort sharing pain, in Spirit we should know,
he's written His law in our hearts and minds, the Way that we are to go.
I find that they are fearful, those who need the most,
the Lord above turns fear to love through the power of the Holy Ghost.
I also wish to tell them, give Him all..that is His due,
He has given us everything, including me and you.
I want to tell them exactly what, it is that they should fear... being far from the One, who has drawn us all so near.
I know my Lord has a plan, it's written in His Word,
and I know when He returns, all the world would have heard.
Forgiveness and redemption, with which we have been blessed,
living in the Grace of God, we enter into His Rest.
{1 John 4:18} There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

Death Takes Over

He says to us," We know the way, so what if we disobey?
We can govern ourselves as you can observe, and make sure that all get what they deserve".
The famine, the fire, the flood, and the quake, diseases, disasters, we leave in our wake.
Heavenly plagues fall from the skies, yet still the darkness remains in our eyes.
He uses his time to constantly play, a wide variety of mind games.
He says,"You are real, can see, feel, and touch, you won't believe what you can't see, that's just too much!
Stay in your way, you can do all you wish, lie, cheat, steal, kill, until you cease to exist.
Don't look for the Light to shine on your path, to tell you what will be the aftermath,
and close up your ears, so you won't have to hear, and shut your eyes, so that in the end it will be a surprise,
with no presents or gifts, just a bunch of lies",............. And then you really die!
{Jeremiah 5:30-31} A horrible and shocking thing has happened in the land. The prophets prophesy lies, the Priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end?

Love is the Yeast

Love is allusive just like a dream,
when observing ourselves, we lose what it means.
Remember as a child, when love and wonder filled our heart?
We can have that feeling again, if we would only do our part.
Appreciate creation in everything you do,
and soon you will realize, we were created too!
The trees, the flowers, the grass in the field,
if we stood by idle they would continue to yield,
a bountiful harvest for our eyes to feast,
we are the dough, love is the yeast.
Think of the ants, the moles, and the rats,
the horses, the birds, the dogs, and the cats.
Mathematic equations, the technical craze,
what a wonderful earth, a miraculous maze.
When we open our eyes and see these magical sights,
we know love is real, it's the purpose of life.
{1Corinthians 13:4-7} Love is patient, Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but does rejoice in the Truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. LOVE NEVER FAILS.

God's Grace

If I could tell the world, what I've seen and what I've learned,
all that I have read about how wickedness will burn.
Good and evil always have resided side by side,
in this truth we are healed, death has been denied.
The Lord has told us what it is, now for us to do,
confess yourself the sinner of the evil shown of you.
When we accuse another, judged by our moral code,
we lay on them what we can't bear, an unforgiven load.
My heart breaks within my chest at how wrong we are,
righteousness within ourselves from our Savior, keeps us far.
When we justify condemning those who do us harm,
what is it then, should we expect from His Righteous Arm?
In compassion shared with others, we find the inner peace,
Jesus died so we can ask for and receive,
the Holy Spirit that's in the world, nourishing seeds of faith,
the Kingdom grows within us, love and mercy, full of grace.
It does not make the wrongs we do, right in any way,
the Lord alone can atone, with faith in Him we pray;
{Luke 17:20-21} Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be your Name,
your Kingdom come your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven,
give us this day our daily Bread, and forgive us our wrongs as we forgive those who wrong us,
let us not be tempted, but deliver us from evil,
for yours is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory, forever.In Jesus Christ's Name. Amen

Merciful Seed

O'Children, can't you see?....The Lord came down to set us free!
We're no longer under turmoil and distrust, we can love and forgive, like the Lord did for us!
Tell the truth in all you do, knowing God's love has forgiven you.
We all know deep in our heart, that love and mercy must not depart.
We've all been wrong, we've all been right, we've seen the darkness, we've seen the light.
Honor and praise for all things achieved, belongs to the Lord, whose gifts we received.
Open the goodness your inner-self knows, sharing with others insures that it grows.
Living for the desires of this earthly shell, creates a world of darkness, the emptiness of hell.
We're no longer captive to to our carnal need, we trust the Lord has healed us, for we are his Spiritual seed.
Just ask for His forgiveness, what you give you have received, and ask for the Spirit of Mercy, in which we are conceived.
{1Peter 1:21-23} Because of this, your trust can be in God who raised Christ from the dead and gave Him great glory. Now your faith and hope can rest in Him alone. Now you can have real love for everyone because your souls have been cleansed from selfishness and hatred when you trusted Christ to save you; see to it that you really do love each other warmly, with all your hearts. For you have a new life. It was not passed on to you from your parents, for the life they gave you will fade away. This new one will last forever, for it comes from Christ, God's ever-living message to men.
