Poem: No Separation with Salvation

Nothing… that occurs within our daily lives,

despite the endless flow of pain and sorrow,

will separate us from the eternal love of God,

regardless of events – be it today or tomorrow.



For the solitary accomplishment of Christ

has bridged the chasm of sin’s spiritual gap;

therefore, to Him we all must willing turn.

He alone is the True Vine, in which we must tap.



Apart from our Lord and His sacred…

Poem: Temptations

Why is it, that the vilest of temptations

seek to violate my mind, during moments…

of weakness, solitude and prayer time?

Is it not enough that my inner person

has been consumed with the filth of my flesh?

How much longer must I wait for the body

of incorruption that will suit me in eternity?

Though I can’t seem to stop sinning,

is it wrong to want to curb its unwanted flow?

Poem: On the Road to… Emmaus?

Have times really changed that much,

hoping never to be spiritually the same?

Are we able to sing new songs and hymns?



How are we occupying the…

Poem: Forever Scarred

Spiked to pair of wooden, interlocking beams,

He hung bleeding, after being severely whipped.

There Christ experienced for the first time,

what it really meant to be like us -

bruised, dirty and covered by a legacy of sin

that clamors for our eventual death.

On that fateful day of His crucifixion,

our Lord felt the agony of separation,

as Jehovah turned His back towards earth,

Poem: Lost Souls

There’s an uneasy emptiness…

which has been experienced by all of us;

it’s an inner void, that hungers,

that pushes us towards a spiritual search.

Our physical eyes tend to glaze over,

from not knowing: what is really needed.

Yet, we strain to see something tangible,

but may be unable to fully articulate

the unknown yearning that nudges

our restless, agitated spirits.

Seekers of hidden,…
