THE  BEST  YET

 

 

Each new day a challenge met

Maybe even a spiritual battle or two,

Then, another revelation of Messiah powerfully made known

In fulfillment, in Heaven’s crystal clear abundance;

We draw near to the protective love of Absolute Authority

Showered from above with joyfulness

Salvation His delight as a tent that covers

Worship, a Temple that surrounds us,

Our Holy Lord, a most zealous King!

Many things are spoken,

Many things are written

Living Words of the Gospel confirmed by the Living God;

From long ago Abraham and Sarah walked this path of faith

As a narrow road of faithful guidance

Covenant promises held closely written on their hearts,

Zeal in passions driven to follow their Shepherd.

Amazing promises from God in those ancient days

Hand in hand with new visions of Kingdom Glory-

A nation to be born and grown

A nation to one day fill the Earth;

Zion as God’s chosen Throne

Jerusalem His chosen city

And then, wonders of a new heaven and a new earth.

A magnificent waterfall of revelations is given

Purest waters entrusted to many,

His Kingdom nation and Gentile family to be united as One!

Just as our Holy Father now dwells with us in Yeshua

By Messiah’s Holy Spirit

Our Sovereign Father’s Light fills this dark world,

Our radiant Savior, the glorious most powerful Lamp

Splendid in Majesty

Who stands always at our side;

The tender and most gentle Shepherd

Will guide each of us today by His Love!

Happy New Year, New Years Day

ANOTHER  NEW  DAY

A new day becomes a new year

Just as the sun rises with the Earth’s most precise spin

Exact motion of the Earth moving through the Solar System,

Clearly defined, clearly made known

All distances perfectly aligned.

Time melts away

Comes and goes as Northern Lights across the night sky,

Glimpses of true personal purpose sensed

Yet, smothered on worldly cares and desires,

Sudden visions of lasting intimate meaning

Covered over by “selling and buying”

“Planting and building”,

Hunger to hold in hands of human flesh that can only grip;

Days turn into weeks

Weeks into months

Months into years.

And, in the end, what has been accomplished

What has been achieved,

The body grows older, outward beauty sags.

Then, a surprise moment brings back a distant divine Kingdom memory

So many good expectations and possibilities once embraced

All to serve the only worthy One

To honor Him with every youthful breath of zeal.

***

A man much older now sits quietly, alone

Broken just enough

Zeal for true life mostly lost

Spirit almost crushed by the world

Scripture memorized so long ago

Dance briefly through the mind

And he deeply wonders

And finally even prays!

A man who knew the difference

Yet, still got caught up in this selfish world

Stands up and takes a new step

Away from material clutter and towards the dim light now seen

And then another step and another

Each step becomes brighter and somehow even brighter,

Once lost, now found again

Almost spiritually dead

Now truly alive again!

Thunder can be heard in the distance

Echoed by the sound of a roar

A faithful Shepherd takes his hand

And guides this man into new eternal adventures that true love compels,

Youthful “zeal and spiritual fervor” renewed!
