If a man and his wife are deserving, god's presence is with them; if they are not deserving, fire consumes them.

What is it you wish...
You claim is there you wait for?
Hop aboard,

Separate yourself,
From those isolation days.
Get rid of devastating implementations.
Planted to erase,
The best of your well being...
Inside that's craved!

Replace your visions of limitation.
Remove any traces of it that sits.
To keep you in the midst of feared conflicts!
Get rid of it!

To maintain such a grip.

There is nothing of it that benefits!
Get rid of it!
Get rid of it!
And delight in a higher consciousness.

Start To Move
You wont get them,
With just a wish.
If something's wanted,
You have to get...
Up on your feet.
Then start to move.
With dreams intact,
You have got to prove...
You really want them.
You really do.
If those dreams are wanted,
To come true!
You wont get them,
With just a wish.
If something's wanted,
You have to get...

If those dreams are wanted,
You have got to prove...
To yourself,
AND nobody else...
You are deserving,
But...
First start to move your feet.
If you are deserving.
Move your feet,
If you are deserving.
If those dreams are wanted,
You have got to prove...
To yourself,
AND nobody else...
You are deserving,
But...
First start to move your feet.
If you are deserving.
Move your feet,
If you are deserving.
Start to move.

Get up on your feet.
If you are deserving.

Get up on your feet.

This Will Be
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh, oh,
Ooh, oh, oh, yeh
Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm
This will be an everlasting love
This will be the one Ive waited for
This will be the first time anyone has loved me
Oh, oh, oh
Im so glad you found me in time
And Im so glad that youve rectified my mind
This will be an everlasting love on me
Oh, oh
Loving you is some kind of wonderful
Because you show me just how much you care
Youve given me the thrill of a lifetime
And made me believe youve got more thrills to spare, oh
This will be an everlasting love, oh yes it will now
Youve brought a lot of sunshine into my life
Youve filled me with happiness I never knew
You gave me more joy than I ever dreamed of
And no one, no one can take the place of you, ooh
This will be, you and me, yes-sir-ee, eternally
Hugging and squeezing and kissing and pleasing
Together, forever, through rain or whatever
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, you and me
So long as Im living, true love Ill be giving
To you Ill be serving cuz youre so deserving
Hey, youre so deserving, youre so deserving
Yeh, yeh, yeh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love
From now on, from now on, yeh
From now on, from now on, yeh

Deserving To Be Touted
Deserving to be touted?
Some are.
And have become legends,
In their own right!
And without doubt.
Although some may deny,
A wish they could figure it all out.
Others believe a taking of praise,
Is something easily given to them...
Without experiencing,
A stress that strains emotional drought.
But those who have obtained a fame,
Aren't the ones to toss it about.
Usually those deserving to be touted,
Are mystified themselves.
And would like to know specifically,
What they've done unlike anyone else?
Especially those chosen to receive attention.
'What have you done,
That is different from what I do? '
~I have no clue.
Maybe it is my stubbornness,
To remain true to myself...
With nothing else to prove.~
'But you are moody.
Sometimes anti-social.
And you are moody with a giving,
Of much attitude.'
~I agree.
But...
I don't know why you are questioning me.
Like you I am a witness to all of this too! ~

Behold His Glory
Behold the Glory of The Lord; let not His presence go ignored,
And you will have the peace of Christ, as you live this busy life.
Let not your many busy days, hinder your God honoring praise,
Praise well deserving to the One, who gave to us His Only Son.
For only God is deserving of, endless praise to show our love,
As the more we behold of Him, the more He changes us within.
Changes within us to display, His character throughout our day,
Reflecting in our life His Son, as a witness for Him to everyone,
When God we continue to behold, blessings continue to unfold,
Filling us with peace by Grace, to guide us daily place to place.
Reflecting on just who God is, impacts the way a believer lives,
Knowing what He wants from us, when in God, we put our trust.
God wants a life devoted to, His Son, who died for me and you,
And all we need to live this life, is faith and trust in Jesus Christ.
Even through one’s frenzied life, seeing sorrow and some strife,
He will help us more than cope, as we behold the Blessed Hope.
So this day behold The King, the Lord and Master of everything,
Fixing your eyes upon The Lamb, who is for us the Great “I AM”.
Let Christ overwhelm our ways, as He sees us through our days,
Then that presence of The Lord, by others, shall not go ignored.

Lenexa Baptist Church = When A Man Loves A Woman
When a man loves a woman he has greater purpose
As he puts her welfare before his own.
He never lies, cheats, beats or dishonors her
As his goodness and concern are shown.
He says thank you to Heaven for her presence and love
And performs his best to stay needed and deserving.
He can’t help but ponder her God given gifts
As he triumphs by his faithfulness, gratitude and serving.
All through history men have loved God’s women
And couldn’t help but submit to their desire.
When you have a good woman you never let up
As you faithfully feed and fan her fire.
The Sky Is High
The sky is high.
I'm thrilled to uplift and pierce,
Through a capacity.
The Sun on me sets a glow.
Deserving of this quickened drift...
I'm in ecstasy!
Something fresh with blessings,
Is going to happen!
Packed all doubts to leave to keep this breeze...
Licking on me.
To soar,
Effortlessly!
The sky is high.
I'm thrilled to uplift and pierce,
Through a capacity.
The Sun on me sets a glow.
Deserving of this quickened drift...
I'm in ecstasy!
Nothing is there to dare my movement.
Aware I am that I've got to fly.
Obstacles small and great are crumbling.
Just like the leaves,
Under my feet.
That fell from the Autumn,
October trees.
The sky is high.
I'm thrilled to uplift and pierce,
Through a capacity.
The Sun on me sets a glow.
Deserving of this quickened drift...
I'm in ecstasy!
And I reach for the sky.
Yes, that sky that's so high!
Something fresh is going to happen!
All doubts are packed...
And ready to leave!
And I lift effortlessly!
The sky is high.
I'm thrilled to uplift and pierce,
Through a capacity.
The Sun on me sets a glow.
Deserving of this quickened drift...
I'm in ecstasy!
The sky is high.
I reach for stars so clear,
A smile appears in my eyes.

As Those Unconscious Sleep
If not for love of humanity,
Would they outspoken speak?
If satisfied with injustices,
Acceptable would these observances be.
Why are some thoughtful?
Why others not?
Why do many dropp their priorities,
To try to stop such inequities?
If not for love of humanity,
Would they outspoken speak?
If satisfied with injustices,
Acceptable would these observances be.
As those unconscious sleep.
Upon self righteous fantasies to keep!
These are the lives lived and wished.
To be as far away from those in need.
And complaining to others,
How those deserving have no right to exist.
How those deserving,
Should be ignored and dismissed.

Once You Discover That Is True
If you do not awaken...
To make God the priority in your life,
Each day.
Perhaps you are deserving,
Of those burdens you've been served.
If you feel limited by an ego that exists...
Those gifts you have been given,
Go unrecognized.
And your eyes are filled,
With a self centeredness you should resist!
No one says it is easy,
To live a life feeling isolated and alone.
With needs and wishes...
Bombarding with temptations.
No one is suggesting,
Your point of view is not valid.
We all have condoned...
Those situations with conditions,
We have known!
If you do not awaken...
To make God the priority in your life,
Each day.
Perhaps you are deserving,
Of those burdens you've been served.
But this is not the life God wants for you!
Once you discover that is true...
You will awaken to praise His name.
Making that the first thing each day you do!

To All Future Husbands
No matter
How much
I educate
My daughter,
If she's not
A good cook
Nor a good
Whore to you
In bed, you
Wouldn't fancy her.
It's the age of
Equality.
If you want your
Wife to work
And bring in
Money…
Why not ask
Your mothers
To teach you
Some cooking
And cleaning
So you can
Share the
Housework.
Instead of being
Brought up
To think
That no matter,
How much
Your wife
Works…
She'll always be
Up and ready,
To do all the
Serving…
And you, the
Lord of the house,
The most deserving,
Unflurried by the fact
That - to be the lady
Of the house, being
A mother, a wife,
A daughter-in-law,
Is Oh! So! Nerve-wracking,
So very tiring, for a woman
Working…

Cupboard Love
To my most deserving
and desirable wife,
I write this love note.
I watched you beneath
the pale blue spotlight,
it made your eyes sparkle.
You looked delightful
but still, I can't deny
what I admire in you most
is the way you always
perfectly butter
my early morning toast.

Sweet Bear-Ables.
Wrap me in my history
and I hope this does
not warp my future.
Wrap me in my hurts endured
and pray they don't contain me
and my healing.
Wrap me in sins
committed
against those deserving
and not deserving;
my mistakes.
Twirl me
in my ego
taint..
Flash those lights on me,
strobe- caught
guilty as charged.
Wrap me in my crazy love for you
where complete surrender offers.
Open the closed door
to find me crying desperately
as my soul weeps
for the loss
of you.
Wrap me
in
Enigma-Cloth
against the cold truths
which periodically
splash me.
Wrap me
in sweet love
for you
which makes all this
both
bearable
and unbearable;
if it were not
that when you go
as unbearable as that is
but is sweetly bearable
when you come back.
Wrap me in our Mystery
hidden
even from myself.

Fire and Light
Fire and light, fire and light
we were fire and light
before the world began
we shown like stars
now enclosed in flesh
like fireflies in jars
we forget we emit light
and a flame that consumes
Like the earth inside the core
or the lamps inside a room
we are like our Maker
fire and light, fire light,
a love that consumes the cold and night.

With Determination
Decide you are deserving,
To whip some excitement up...
In your life.
Just a notch or two for you will do it.
And with determination,
You may enjoy your 'trip'.
Something don that is unscripted.
And off that beaten path a bit.
Don't sew any crops to leave to dust,
Untouched.
Choose to make a move,
You would not normally do.
Choose to prove you can make that move.
Prove...
To yourself,
Restricted limitations you can break through!
Decide you are deserving,
To whip some excitement up...
In your life.
Just a notch or two for you will do it.
And,
With determination...
You may enjoy your 'trip'.
