Yes and Amen

To believe is to be,
To have faith, to obtain life
To decide, to choose, to see what nobody else can see,
To ignore everything you've ever been told
And all that you feel
And step out there
And know that what Yahweh says
Is True
and inalterable.
To live.
This pleases Yahweh, allows Him to give us that life
He has been longing to give us since it was first lost to us
When Adam disobeyed
Which life He gave us before the foundation of the world,
Reaffirmed His promise with an oath of confirmation
On the cross, saying, yet again,
"I love you"
And asking of us only that
we believe, have faith, obtain life
That we decide, choose, elect to see
What nobody else has seen,
What nobody else can see for us
What we must, ultimately see for ourselves
The Word, Yahweh's Word
About us
Me.
Who I am.
What I am doing here.
And what I was created to do
Before the foundations of the world
In the beginning
When Yahweh created me
and He said "Let there be..."
What did He say, what did He mean?
What did He most want to see
Come out of that nothing
And become me?
And how can I now become again
What I was in the beginning
Again, by faith, the only way
To obtain the life that He gave to me.
And so I say,
"Yes, I believe. And amen."

Life or Death?

Give it away! It’s not really yours! Toss it out, it is destined to die. Unless you release this, you’ll never have more. Cling to it, and you too will die. For nothing is lost that isn’t already perishing Yahweh gives all that endures. But you can’t take what lasts if you cling to what’s leaving Eventually, you have to choose. So give up what is nothing To gain what’s forever Don’t lose your soul To gain a dying world! For what Yahweh has for you Is a true treasure Eternity, Himself The Word. He planned things for you long before creation What He’s had for you has always been yours Receive it, embrace it with jubilation Walk in fulfillment purposed. So that is the choice take it AND leave it For you can’t have both at a time. Reality or illusion? Truth or deceivement? The choice is entirely yours.

Fears

Sometimes I feel like I am surrounded by enemies, dancing all around me Screaming Shouting into my head, into my heart In the mornings before school, And at night before bed When I can't stop thinking, can't stop thinking of all the mistakes I could make tomorrow, Remembering all the mistakes I made today, and yesterday, and the day before that one The times I screamed at kids, failed to motivate them, The times I didn't teach them anything or made them feel stupid And the enemy screams and shouts and pounds his drums In a frenzy And all I can hear is how awful I am And how I should quit and stop and leave and go And it's hard to hear the still, small, quiet voice of truth in my head, In my heart, Telling me what I've known all along, but forgot Forgot, forgot, forgot In the frenzy and pounding and screaming of the fears That tell me that I don't deserve to be here And what difference do I make anyway? But He just spoke to me yesterday, tol...

Weeping For Jerusalem

One time, Yahshua stood on a hill Overlooking the city He walked in, Lived in, worked in, played in, and He saw it And all of the people in it, those who did not know, And He was weeping, weeping for Jerusalem. Today, I stood in my classroom, The classroom I've taught in Worked in, played in, and I saw it, All of the people, who did not know And I felt like weeping, weeping for Jerusalem. There is a girl who thinks she is special Only when there is a boy to tell her so, A boy who thinks he's unworthy, Because no one has time for him, A girl who thinks it's her job To take care of her family--even though she's only twelve. And one girl has never even known what it's like To be safe and loved and warm in the night To her, what does it even look like to be free? She's never seen, she does not know. So I am weeping, weeping for Jerusalem Waiting, waiting for full redemption And as the bride I say, "Come!" Oh, Yahweh come! Come and...
