Force of Your Life
Force of Your Life
To what is the force of your life directed?
For whom are your energies expended?
What are you building?
Where are you traveling?
Are your time and your talents
Your desire and will
Employed with purpose
Or somewhat murky -
A pipe dream, still?
Is love in the . . .
The Source
The one Source,
one Father and Creator
of all that exists
by and through
the Eternal Son.
There is one only
wellspring of wisdom
one source of hope
one original of goodness
one perpetual cascade of boundless Joy.
How might I reach for and find this Source?
The Eternal Word
who . . .
If Not, What Then?
IF NOT, WHAT THEN?
If the Lord Christ Jesus inside you
is not greater than the world
the flesh
and the devil,
If his presence and power
in and for you is not, in fact,
the destroyer of sickness and disease,
the conqueror of sin
the crusher of condemnation,
the terror of fear
the dread . . .
Kingdoms Clash, and Shall We Sleep?
Stay the Course, Bobby
(Or Sue, or Fred, or Sandy)
Stay the course, Bobby (or Sue, or Fred, or Sandy).
Dismiss distractions and anxious, futile thoughts.
Stay the course, be rigorously joyful, grateful and glad.
Let courage flourish, ascend, and conquer.
Am I not He that has overcome the world and the flesh and the devil?
Be zestfully cheerful, . . .
