with love and might

search through His word 

and do what's right

His light can shine

 to all the Earth 

We have His light 

What is of worth?

Sparks

A spark can fizzle out

Or warm your heart to grow

It can be doused by doubt

Or flame with faith because, "You know!"

Dig

Start your investigation 

Dig for what is true

Find the firm foundation 

Faith will see you through 

Trust Experience

Trust in experience

Be the best you.

Don't judge yourself

Based on what others do.

Baptism

A desirable consequence 

from your baptismal day 

through faithful obedience

 is to have the spirit always.

He Chose You

Despite weaknesses

Even suffering 

Jesus chose you

Knowing everything 

Not to pull you down

But, to raise you up

Even to surround

YOU, with His peace and love

A "Ticktock" Moment

 A "ticktock" moment

Triggers you to the past

When you were a small child

In a memory made to last

There should be a word for when you have this moment so I named it "ticktock".  We have deju vu to describe the feeling you have experienced something already.  But, what do you call it when you have a moment that you reexperience the feelings of your youngest childhood memories? An example is the magic and wonder of Christmas morning.

Too bad you can't say, "I had a mini me moment."

Prayer's the Perk

Life is hard

It is work

In each  job

Prayer's the perk

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism.

All Excuses Will Fade

All excuses will fade, just like smoke in the wind. 

Did we go our own way or show love in the end? 

Is there oil in our lamp that is ready to burn? 

For the Bridegroom, at last, are we eager and yearn?

Imagine a day or time when people are speechless and unable to come up with an excuse! I put things off all the time.  Sad.

Armies need to regroup after losing on the battlefield, and football teams will regroup at halftime after a difficult first half. You can also use words like reorganize or restructure, or even mobilize to substitute for the verb regroup.
