THE MISSING SET OF KEYS (PART TWO)



THE MISSING SET OF KEYS (PART TWO)

Poem one was about the missing keys last week
A pair of glasses was also lost two weeks ago
Since I put my total faith and trust in the Lord
If I’m supposed to find them He’d let me know
               
My wife saw the glasses on the floor under my desk
After all that time thank God they weren’t broken
It’s a testimony relating to the power of praying
And the sincerity in the words that I’d spoken

Getting back to the set of keys on a ring that were lost
I’d realized that they went missing on Christmas Eve
Four weeks later I received a call that they’d been found
The power of prayer is like a miracle when you believe

I went into that store during the day of the twenty-fourth
When I called them they said they hadn’t been turned in
When they found them they saw my name on a gym card
Talk about a prayerful situation that’s totally a win/win

I’m sure situations like this have happened to others
But remember that when you pray on any given day
Whatever does happen is always in the Lord’s time
But God always loves it when you go to Him and pray

ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE LIFE EXPERIENCES



METRO ATLANTA IN THE SNOW

We were coming home from the Dentist
And decided to stopped for a bite of food
From that point on all that we could do
Was pray to the Lord to be understood

We prayed for safety all the way home
Cars stuck and slipping and sliding
Arriving home very long after dark
Again we thanked God for providing

It took ten hours to go twenty one miles
But the one thing for sure that we know
The power of prayer is extremely awesome
Try it some time it’s a great thing to do

THE MISSING SET OF KEYS



THE MISSING SET OF KEYS

You know how much I trust in You Lord
The burden you gave me was poor vision
I get so frustrated on a regular basis
Even knowing I must trust in your decision

It’s difficult for me to know if this is a test
Because when I’ve lost some things before
You’ve always led me to them after I pray
I pray that I didn’t leave them in the door

I know that they’re only a set of keys Lord
The Nitro attached I can always get new
I’m concerned about the car and house keys
If they were taken and what someone might do

So Lord as I pray about it one last time
I know that you’ll eventually intercede
I say this because I’m also aware that all
Get done in Your Time and at your Speed

Part two of this poem will appear in next week’s
posting



MOSTLY FOR FIRST TIME VIEWERS



MOSTLY FOR FIRST TIME VIEWERS

If you’re viewing my blog site for the first time
There are a few things I’d like you to know
They may apply to some who’ve been here
It’s just some things I’d like you to know

My first suggestion to you would be to read
The biography that you see on the right side
Of course this is strictly a suggestion to you
Whatever you choose is what you decide

The reason that I’m telling you this is because
It will contain information about who I am
There’s a way to get the book the Lord provided
After reading it you won’t really need a diagram

The poetry that you read isn’t completely mine
Yes I write every verse so that you can read it
The truth is that I’m just one of God’s Vessels
What I write is given to me by the Holy Spirit

If you do enjoy what you read on that first page
The archives are near the very end of the page
Right now they go back just over four years
It may have a poem that you’ll want to engage

At the very bottom there’s a U.S. Marine poem
I can adapt it to any family member or a friend
I laminate it to fit into an eight by ten frame
And the cost is minimal to you for me to send

As a poet I’d really enjoy having some feedback
After each poem is a place to make a comment
It’s may not be the easiest thing to get on to
So I’ve provided an email where it can be sent

And lastly there’s just one more thing to write
Every single verse is there for you to enjoy
Poems coming to me through the Holy Spirit
Thanks to the Blessings of Yeshua Adonai

BLESSED AND THANKFUL



BLESSED AND THANKFUL
                                                        
The year’s first issue of the Messianic Times
Arrived in my mailbox sometime yesterday
There was an article on my poetic ministry
 I went right to page eight without delay       

The next thing I did was to thank the Lord
As only through Him it had come to fruition
Then I said a silent prayer that the article would
Put the Ministry God gave me in a stronger position

Strong enough to reach more people in the world
God allows it to be read in sixty seven countries
There are so many more to be reached out there
And Salvation would be their greatest of amenities

There are other people that I’d like to thank as well
The person who wrote it brought everything to light
The editor-in-charge who allowed it to be published
And again thanks to God that it came out just right

One more person that I need to thank so very much is my
Godly wife who sticks by me through the thick and thin
Now with the Lord’s help the words that He gives me
Will help to kick the devil out and let Father God in

PEOPLE FROM YOUR PAST



PEOPLE FROM YOUR PAST

Have you ever thought about some Friends
Or perhaps acquaintances from your past
Where they are now or are they still alive
Or what was the reason that it didn’t last

I believe that I may know the answer
And perhaps you will agree with me
The situation is always in God’s Hands
Because the Lord controls your destiny

God knows what you needs and what you don’t
That’s why people come in and out of our lives
Some of them for a moment some for a lifetime
Some even returning if the right time arrives

It’s possible that God may have thought
That this wasn’t where you needed to go
Perhaps the memory was bad or painful
It’s something that we may never know

What I’d ask them if I should see them again
Is how they are and just where they’ve been
But I’d still be eternally grateful to the Lord
Because He allowed them to come back in

What I’m saying is that these many thoughts
May often wander in the portals of your mind
Remembering the past is probably a good thing
Especially if the ones you may have lost you find

FIRST MID-WEEK MUSING



As I had indicated last week; every so often I will be posting an occasional poem during mid-week. This one is for our granddaughter Morgan & has a special meaning for both my wife and myself

OUR PERSONAL BLESSING FROM THE LORD

We viewed our granddaughter’s sonogram recently 
The images showed her to be expecting a baby boy
We also prayed that the both of them stay healthy
Through the Grace and Mercy of Yeshua Adonai

It just so happen that this is our first great-grandchild
My wife and I are overjoyed can’t you tell by this poem
It’s so exciting to watch him grow for six more months
It‘ll be even more so from the time she brings him home

IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE POET:

Starting soon, I will occasionally be posting a poem during mid week that is humorous or has a lesson to be learned from it. Remember that God loves humor and the lessons that can be learned are Godly based

DO YOU STRUGGLE WITH AN UNFORGIVING HEART



DO YOU STRUGGLE WITH AN UNFORGIVING HEART

Believers in Yeshua know that
His Shed Blood forgave our sins
But there’s a good deal more to it
This is just where forgiveness begins

If you still hold any malice towards anyone
In your heart you know you’re still sinning
There’s only one real way to end it forever
It’s the only way you’ll come out winning

I can honestly speak from experience
You may think it sounds very odd
It took me a very long time but I
Finally let go and gave it to God

In your case it may be a friend or family member
Co-worker or someone you haven’t liked forever
I’m telling you that you need to find inner peace
Before you pass away you must seek this endeavor

Even as a believer in God it’s extremely hard to do but
You’re the only person who can change the situation
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to relieve yourself of
The anxiety that you hold on to and the frustration

It’s not going to be an easy task to accomplish
As I said before, “It took much too long for me,
So please do what I did LET GO AND LET GOD."
One more way to help set the Holy Spirit in you free

SHOW US MORE OF YOUR WAY LORD



SHOW US MORE OF YOUR WAY LORD

You keep giving me many verses to write Lord
Your Spirit told me that I’d passed Your Test
The Power of Your Holy Word is never ending
One Soul is too few I’m ready to help the rest

You’ve guided my hand this far Father God
Through Your Holy Spirit I’ll do as You Ask
Whatever the cost may be I’m in Your Hands
Through Yeshua I’ll always be up to the task

You’ve cut a path through the devil’s airwaves
Which myself and many other vessels will use
We know that it has one but Devine Purpose
Personal Salvation through Your Good News

Send us the unsaved throughout the world
A Jew or a Gentile or whatever their belief
You’ve given us Your Spiritual Words to use
That will stop ha-satan from being a thief

A NEW YEAR A NEW YOU




Another twelve months have come and gone
And for a brief moment you need to look back
Not at the year’s events in the news but
At the good you did and what did you lack

Were you one of those who were in the world or
Did you spread God’s word as He commands
What can you do that to God in the New Year
That you know fits in with His eternal plans

It may just be some little things
Such as kindness giving and love
But things like this all fit right into
What God is doing from up above

Spread God’s word when and where you can
Tell everyone about Yeshua God’s only Son
How He died that your sins would be forgiven
By your example show the victory that He won

Do these things throughout the coming year
God will grant you blessings beyond measure
And when your time on the earth has ended
You’ll reap the benefits of your heavenly treasure

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND BLESSIMGS IN YESHUA

FACTS THAT YOU'RE UNAWARE OF



FACTS THAT YOU’RE NOT AWARE OF

There are facts about my blog site
That my viewing public cannot see
Notably the countries that view it daily
These facts always seem to astonish me

I know the Lord is in control of all things
So it really shouldn’t come as a surprise
A third of the countries who view the site
Are mostly Muslim dominated I’ve surmise

That God is opening all sorts of blinded eyes
And turning their hearts where they belong
Before they were weak under satan’s control
And this new found hope has made them strong

That same revelation will also be coming very soon
To so many people who have the wrong concept
To my unbelieving Jewish sisters and brothers
God’s compassion will change their perception

It’s through the Power of the Lord’s Holy Spirit
That the verses which you’ve just read above
Have been given to me to enlighten my viewers
Through the Grace and Wisdom of God’s Love
