What this life is about?

James 1:27
Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

AWESOME!!!

The Feeling Coming Home

Hi Everyone,

This is a kinda sad thing but this is what I was feeling on the plane...


I read in Your Ancient Word
How You have formed me
And everything I see in Nature
The love and awe
I feel are intense
So intense that I struggle
To find the words to describe
What I am feeling

I miss them so much
Do You know what I am feeling
Family, I have learned
On this trip
Relationships, I have learned
On this trip

I have been so wrong
Thinking whatever I thought
Don't know what it was
I feel like I don't know much
I just know this intenseness of longing

Do You feel this
Everytime I choose something
Other than Your waterfall of love
That is like the Wild Pacific
20 Feet waves coming into
The sands on San Francisco
Comes crashing in around me

Thank You for loving me!!!

Flying Over the United States - Fingerprints of Heaven

Hi Everyone,
2 days ago I started on this first of many trips to California. Jesus gave me a poem to write while I was on the plane. It is called (actually has a name), Fingerprints of Heaven.


Bird's eye view
This amazing invention of man
That has afforded me this opportunity
To see this freak
Freak of what is called nature - to see Yahweh
That no seems to want to talk about
I will join with the Psalmists' praises
In knowing that something that is untouched
By human hands
Is marked with the fingerprints of EL SHADDAYAnd to think
this Mighty One carried His cross
Really mine
So I could be called
By this matchless grace!Makes my heart want to
Worship Him at all times
Knowing that I don't
But stretching forward to the goal
The white sands of the Midwest,
Or is it the west
I don't know
Jesus, white sands tell me of what I have read
When I finally see the wool of Your hair
Running my hands through my Older Brother's hair
The feeling of security that
To know I am home!Like my two brothers that have
Left this place this past week
Ken Sr. and Keener released from their body
Transported to a body like our Risen Brother Lord
My Lord, and my God

I have seen a little
Little taste of You
God, give me more
So, I can share it
Grace, mercy, healing, enlargement,

Enlargement over what I think is pressing down on me
Outward appearance, sexual attraction, money, issues at work
All this comes as nothing
In the seeing of the One who has called
And what He has done!

WHY? - Asking questions of God Randomly.

Might not be the polictcally currect thing to do but here it goes...
I think God wants us to come to Him and I do intend to go to Him through His Word....

Jesus, why cancer?

Jesus, why disability?

Jesus, why Earthquakes in the village of Nura?

Jesus, why do You allow us to live?

Jesus, why hold us together by the strength of Your Power?

Jesus, why mental desease?

Jesus, why half cures?

Jesus, why room for lack of faith?

Jesus, why chance of wasting this one life You give?

Jesus, why choice?

Stole this one from Todd Agnew - Jesus, why did You make her eyes sparkle so nicely?

Jesus, why have You given the enemy the power to blind the eyes of unbelievers?

Going Home

Hi Everyone, today I learned that a friend of mine has made his transport from this temporal tent we live in to his final Eternal Home....

"In my Father's house there are many, many rooms
In my Father's house there are many, many rooms
And I'm going up there now to prepare a place for you
That where I am, there you may also be
If I go prepare a place for you, I will come back again
If I go prepare a place for you, I will come back again
And you know I am the Way, the Truth, the Life, keep my command
That where I am, there you may also be
That where I am, there you may also be
Up where the truth, the truth will set you free
In the world you will have trouble, but I leave you my peace
That where I am, there you may also be Remember you did not choose me, no I have chosen you
Remember you did not choose me, no I have chosen you
The world will show you hatred, the Spirit show you truth
That where I am, there you may also be And I've come down from the Father, it's time for me to go back up
Oh, I've come down from the Father, it's time for me to go back up
One command I leave you: Love as I have loved
That where I am, there you may also be That where I am, there you may also be
Up where the truth, the truth will set you free
In the world you will have trouble, but I leave you my peace
That where I am, there you may also be That where I am, there you may also be
Up where the truth, the truth will set you free
In the world you will have trouble, but I'm leaving you my peace
That where I am, there you may also be"
