The Lord Is Not Your Husband - Lord Yes, Lover No

A Revelation

The Lord Is Not Your Husband

Lord yes, Lover no

Coming Spring, 2009!

Placed in human beings are the needs and desires necessary for reproduction. Along with these natural desires, comes personal gratification, as well as, pleasure. All of these are important to the continuance of the life cycle. Without them, humanity would become… Continue

When Night Falls

When Night Falls

When night falls, do you have a place to lay your head?

Or do you search for a cubby hole or a card board box to crawl into?

Maybe you’re blessed enough to have relatives or friends,

Or maybe you’re not.

While it is day, it’s okay

You can walk the streets or seek shelter in a mall or restaurant.

But when night falls,

It’s natural to find a place to lie.

While others are going into their abodes and shutting the… Continue

Couldn’t car

Stray bullets

Ambulances

Emergency rooms

Body bags

Too late

Caged

Caged

Freedom to dwell wherever I tread

Not confined to locations with boundaries

Zoning, districts, busing

Unleash me so I can roam free

To see mountains and rivers and trees of all sorts

To open up and breathe in fresh air

Somewhere where the sky is not blocked

but in plain view

Uncage me so I can go FREE.

Holding On

Holding On

Reaching, reaching I can’t stop now.
I have got to make it no matter how.
Stepping stepping, I’ve got to keep the pace
Grace, more grace to run this race.

How Do You Really Feel?

How Do You Really Feel?

Good morning.

How are you?

I’m fine.

How are you?

Are you always fine when you say those words?

Or are you being repetitious in your everyday greetings.

If you stop to say how you really feel,

Your morning greetings might turn into evening goodnights.

A Blank Sheet

A Blank Sheet

They enter blameless into this world, like a blank sheet of paper.

New, fresh, clean, spotless,

Just waiting to be written on,

Who will be the first to write?

Will it be Ms. Incest, Mr. and Mrs. Poverty, Madam Rape to name a few?

Or, maybe Sir Death will sign in before the others do.

Existing

Existing

Noises, curses, poverty all around

There’s hardly a moment when there is no sound.

Sad faces, stagnation, ambitions low.

Nothing is fast, it all seems so slow.

You Alone

Added by Brenda Farrar-Ejemai on March 15, 2009 at 10:06am — No Comments

You Alone

You Alone

You wish to move that block of stone,

to make an opening,

to pave a way.

You steadily push it before you.

Sometimes you tire.

But somehow, within, you find the strength to push.

Your walk is like beach sand.

IT IS ONLY YOU

For Christmas and 2009 I wish you the Power of the Name of Jesus!

At the Receiving End of a Miracle!

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

God hears your prayers and guides you - even in the worst possible circumstances. Oh, He’s so good! All I want to do is shout! Why? Because He surely is “the Lord that healeth thee.” (Ex. 15:26) and a “rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” (Heb. 11:6)

I must give God the glory for all the wonderful things He has done! For years I had… Continue

What Do You Do When Fear Overpowers You?

I had a frightened call from Debbie yesterday. She was

totally beside herself. She had just gotten off the bus and

was at a physical as well as spiritual crossroads. She was

totally consumed with fear, crying and shaking

uncontrollably.

Someone involved in occult practices had threatened that,

if she did not follow through on a tentative promise she

had made, there would be consequences. Debbie, who had

recently accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as her… Continue
