MY COMPUTER IS DOWN!!!

MY COMPUTER IS DOWN:
Since we are both under the weather due to my wife's surgery & my sciatic problem, I can't post on my wife's computer because the poetry is on my computer in my Microsoft word. It will be at lest 1-2 weekends before my computer is up and running again. Possibly longer, In the meantime you can always go back a little into my archives of just over 4 years. My apology for the inconvenience. I'll try to get it up & running as soon as possible. Blessings in Yeshua!

MY COUNTRY



MY COUNTRY

This is my country that's  called
The Land of the brave and the free
Yes this is my country
But not the way I'd like it to be

It wasn’t very many years ago
When patriotism was the norm
But as the years went passing by
It was like the calm before the storm

A person’s rights became more important
Than the principles this country stands for
And God who is the founder of our freedom
Is being told to exit through our back door

The people who have taken our freedoms away
Are really just a very minute minority
I say,” Let’s take these freedoms back.”
It’s something that God would like to see

There are a lot of important issues
Which have a need to be addressed
But we’ve become so complacent
It makes so many feel depressed

Let’s start with our houses of worship
That back away rather than to offend
Although their position isn’t biblical
God’s word will prevail in the very end
                                                                                              
Whatever happened to the institution
Of the marriage of a man and wife and
Many are choosing to have babies first
This definitely isn’t the way to start a life

The churches and synagogues must lead the way
Showing those who stray God’s truth in the bible
Because at the very end it will the Lord’s decision
And His Judgement will hold you liable

In no way am I being judgmental
I just write the words God has gives to me
If you’ve strayed return to God’s flock
Making the changes that will set you free

I can write about these things however
The changes must come from all of us
So if you read this I only hope and pray
That you'll climb aboard the changing bus

As for me although this is my country
As a Jew Israel is my Spiritual Homeland
And even though I may never get there
It’s still the way that God had it planned

DEALING WITH FRUSTRATION



DEALING WITH FRUSTRATION

Have you ever had one of those days
When everything that could goes wrong
It may just start with something small
Like constantly singing the same song

Then you go to get on the computer and
The server has changed things around
You keep trying to get into your email
But sadly it’s nowhere to be found

So you decide to take out the daily trash
The bag is overflowing and it’s very heavy
It tears and everything falls all over the place
And your clothes get covered with gravy

Finally when you get the mess cleaned up
You open the door and the dog escapes
It makes you wonder what else could go wrong
So far your day has been filled with sour grapes

That’s the time when you need to pause
You need to take one giant step back
If the rest of the day continues like this
It’s just liable to cause a heart attack

Instead of fretting about all that’s happened
There is something else that you can do
Just turn these frustrations over to the Lord
And then you can start the day anew

The Lord will bear your burden
By yourself you can’t fix the mess
Move on with the rest of the day
And God will take care of the rest

Stay calm and go about your business
It’s amazing how it will all work out
All because you let go and let God
That’s really what it’s all about

REMEMBERING MY FORGOTTEN AUNTS




REMEMBERING MY FORGOTTEN AUNTS


In this vast old world of ours
Of relatives friends and such
There are some so oft forgotten
Yet endeared so very much

I speak of some second mothers
Warm of heart firm yet ever so kind
A worldly hunt for women such as these
Would all lead to these saintly finds

These woman who throughout their lives
Would be unselfishly giving of their all
Now the time has come however to shout
Of their goodness with a triumphant call

To my aunts to my wonderful loveable aunts
I have nothing save this poem to offer thee
Not much I admit for all that they’ve done
Yet all I possess for it comes from within me

Thank You Lord for blessing me with my aunts
Since I wrote these verses they‘ve passed away
Though they never professed to knowing the Lord
Maybe through God’s grace I’ll see them one day

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING



WHAT WERE THEY THINKING

I received a message from the MJAA today of
Palestinian Jihadists sending rockets into Israel
Thank You Father God that no lives were lost
They don’t understand the way that you’ll deal

Israel retaliated knocking out some key installations
Jihad’s response was that they keep sending rockets
If Israel’s retaliation did more than minor damage
After all the funding didn’t come out of their pockets

What exactly did these radicals think was going to happen
The Lord has vowed to protect Israel even unto the last days
Father God has declared this through His Word in the bible
All of the Islamic Jihadist’s attempts will fail in so many ways

The only victory hasatan will gain by continuing this
Is that sadly some of Israel’s people’s lives will be lost
Satan’s Jihadists are nothing more than puppets to him
So he doesn’t really care anything about the human cost

I must say though that only the Muslim terrorists are bad
I’ll tell you exactly how I know this statement to be true
One way that God is working is through my Poetry Ministry
More than 25% of the countries that I reach are Muslim too

Please continue praying for peace throughout the world
God doesn’t need them but appreciates it each time you pray
The more that you ask Father God for His Daily intervention
Will bring us that much closer to our very last worldly Day

A MID WEEK MUSING-MY BEST FRIEND



MY BEST FRIEND

There is no question in my mind
Of all the good friends that I’ve got
You are the very best of them
And this to me means quite a lot

I’ve always been able to confide in you
Telling you things that are both good and bad
It’s nice knowing we’re there for each other
A blessing for which I’m extremely glad

God bless you being the person that you are
I pray our love and friendship will never end
And even when He calls both of us to heaven
After the Lord you’ll still be my best friend

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT



SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT 

Since the last time that you read my blog
Each one of us has gotten just a little older
Let’s keep in touch throughout my email
So that what we have doesn’t ever smolder

Give some thought as to the numerous reasons why
We may not see a friend or acquaintance each year
They may be too ill or have even passed away and
All that’s left are memories of those who were here

Whatever those particular circumstances happen to be
You might show your concern by mail email or phone
There’s nothing like the blessing of a good friendship
Although you haven’t see them they won’t feel alone

Even if someone that you know may have passed away
You still have fond memories after having kept in touch
Out of respect why not get in touch with a family member
Knowing your friendship they’ll appreciate it very much

All that I’m saying is that if you value their friendships
Only God knows how many more tomorrows we possess
By keeping in touch with all of the friends that we cherish
It’s one less thing that we have that may cause undo stress







LOOKING BACK AT AN AFTERTHOUGHT



LOOKING BACK AT AN AFTERTHOUGHT

I had an auto accident many years ago
While traveling across this great land
I’m just beginning to realize now that
It’s just something that God had planned

It was many years before I knew Yeshua
At the time I called it Devine Intervention
I believe now as I’m recalling the incident
That this may have been God’s Intention

The car wound up in a ditch across the highway
A St. Christopher medal I had was on the floor
My Star of David was still sitting on the dashboard
At the time I thought that I couldn’t ask for more

The point I’m trying to get across to you is that
God controls every situation that passes us by
The good bad and sad things that happen in life
No matter what It’s not our place to question why

For what we may think are not God’s Thoughts
Father God is the creator and we’re the creation
Once we can get that through to our thick sculls
We can Worship and Praise Him without hesitation

GO ABOUT GOD'S BUSINESS

GO ABOUT GOD’S BUSINESS
 
If you truly love the Lord you know
That He controls every aspect of life
From all the joy that comes your way
To all the ways that you handle strife
 
The reason that I say the latter is because
One thing He gives you is free will choice
You can make mistakes and still get it right
Through the Holy Spirit in your inner voice
 
By keeping your focus on the Lord above
And going about your business each day
Give God the praise for all that He does
And in all times you must always pray
 
It’s an intricate part of the circle of life
Live your life to the fullest every day
Focus on God who created you and
Many blessings will come your way

SISTER

SISTER
Birthdays are a lot like snowflake
They add up and then multiply
Very soon you begin to wonder
Where have they all sped by
          
And in those many passing days
Through the good times and the bad
You’ve always stood the test of time
A blessing for which we’re very glad

Don’t change a thing about yourself
God sees your beauty from up above
His Smile is one of satisfaction and
His Everlasting Gift to you is love
