Came like a theif in the night.
Thought you were allright,left me
with nights wondering when you will
come back to your true being.
You were high,you werent dry,so full of life
Then you partake in the fire and
nothing was the same and no coming back.
Oh why can it be,you were driven you had clarity now there is
only confusion.
Oh come back from the darkness
you are so better than the wordliness you are drowning in.

Bring us together Lord
No matter the time
No matter the place.
Bring us together so
you can see your
christian family.
For we want to be
all you see and
more for THEE.
We want only to feel
your warm embrace
as we praise and
worship you in
this place.

God watches us
Post Comment
For i prayed for this day
to come, but secretly i
was wondering if it
would possible come true.
Then in the back of
my mind i knew God would
provide for this and
every moment in time i
needed Him.
When i got the call
telling me my daughter
would be going to a
church retreat.
Something i never thought
i would hear her say.
For i heard her say how
she hated God in every way.
Yet he got through to you
by having a friend be there
by your side and be his guide.
Showing you the way to a
great and happy time.
Letting God be her guide.
For all i can say to you is
thank you Lord for getting
through to her and showing
the way to happy time with
you this day.

My mind is in the clouds
as i marvel at God's
handy work as i marvel
at all He can do and
who He is.
The simplest things
impress me as i hear
a bird sing.
As i listen to natures
sound and watch all
that is around me.
Now can you tell how
miraculous He is.
All that He has
accomplished and all
He will if we just
let him.
Ask Him to lead our
path for our life.
Ask Him to show us the
way for your life today.
Pray to Him to show you
the way each and every day.

i sit.
staring at this wall...
neither alive,
nor dead.
somewhere in between...
i am.
folded upon my breath...
i rest.
murmuring bellows,
tossing each breath between static pause...
and dynamic streams of convoluted mindfulness.
it is this stillness, this Moment that gives me identity;
neither irish nor american...nor white....nor black...
male nor female...
... still awareness...I have become what I have always been.
It is Here, that i am.
It is Here that I rest.
It is here that I have Become.

Every good gift perfectly placed from above
Comes from the father of lights showing perfect love
Without variation or a shadow of turning
A light so bright always burning
All things work together for good for those he shall love
His truth is sent straight from above
In his right hand seven stars shine
The power in him so Devine
A countenance like the sun shinning in its strength
The depth of his heart can't be measured in length
He is a warrior sent from above
His arms are open wide showing perfect love
Coming with the clouds every eye shall see
He who lives once dead but now he lives free
The stone was removed he rose above the cave
He still lives waiting for someone to save
Surely the one that holds the key
To break the holds and set you free
His love endures forever
In his right hand seven stars shine
The power in him so Devine
A countenance like the sun shinning in its strength
The depth of his heart can't be measured in length
He is a warrior sent from above
His arms are open wide showing perfect love

Lord can I talk to you?
There's something I need to know.
Are you still walking with me,
Down this cold, dark and lonely road?
I know I've forsaken you,
Time and time again,
And keep going back in time it seems
To a bitter life of sin.
There's something I need to tell you Lord
So many things to say,
I know, I know you've heard it before,
And think it's just for today.
But I'm feeling kind of lonely Lord,
I'm getting a little afraid.
I'm wondering if I'll be with you,
When the world has passed away.
I know I've done some bad things,
And I really want to change.
My heart is breaking deep inside,
And I cannot bear the pain.
I know I lived my life for me,
When I should have lived it for you.
So I lived my life a life of grief,
And I branded myself a fool.
But I'm going to do the right this,
And I am really going to change.
I will call upon the lord, my God,
And he can take away my pain.
Because I'm feeling kind of lonely Lord,
I'm getting a little afraid.
I'm wondering if I'll be with you,
When the world has passed away.

I know this place
It familiar to me
Never been here
But familiar
This strange feeling that I know this place well
Have I been here before
The place is like I remember it well
Can't get this feeling out of my head
I sleep it on my mind as I wake
Their in the back of my mind
I feel I been here before can't get this out of my mind
I ask family and friends have we been here before
They all say no we not been here before
Was this from a past life that I had
I can't get this out of my head

WEDNESDAY (Wodensday)
Passion and Grace...Strength and Courage....
a conflagration that touches the listless and dying, searing the despair and hopelessness from human forms...
embracing the child in all of us -
Divine Bellows resounding through all and everything..... The Spirit renewing the old with the new.
Displacing sour wine of our youth with the eternal fruits born of trials...tears...and victory.
This Flame still lives within me...
The blood of my ancestors course my veins
like the stallions lead...
Every moment, I am born anew.
Reflections of mine own, Mystical archetypes, nameless in essence..
countless in forms....but still comprise the horizons of my Life..
and the tempest of my "death".
Divine ...is the Mother of us All...
Holy .....is the call of the Heathen Pantheon...
Mundane ....are the fears and anguish that
befall me now.
I loose the sceath from my waist...
the Broadsword bemoans its eternal respite.
Here by the River...close to Asgard...
I stand alone.
Gregory S.

It might offend somebodys faith
If I say a certain name
But the name I say is a name that's great
He's known as the king of kings
Other gods will be embarrassed
If I say they are in second place
But all I'm gonna do is talk about you know who
Started the human race
When politicians make a speech
They try their very best
To leave out certain letters of the alphabet
The letters of J-e-s-u-s
Remember moses had the ten commandments
Joshua had a horn
David had a slingshot
Jesus had to be born
Of a virgin mary
Holy mother of God
King James had it written down
Passed it all around
America agreed this to be true
But when 2012 came due
How many seem to regret as they leave out certain letters of the alpahbet the letters of J-E-S-U-S
