As It Is Written
Where one’s mind goes,
the Man will always follow.
Are you paying attention
to what may be tomorrow?
Faith always agrees with God
and the messages of His Word.
Take random thoughts captive.
Is it Him, that you’ve heard?
Be freed from mental bondages;
improve your thinking today.
Read the Biblical instructions
and get a new life underway.
Meditate on the Scriptures.
Reduce your inner turmoil;
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Pray for the presence of God
and be covered with holy oil.
Faith’s power usually comes
in the form of revelation-
from a relationship with Him,
as part of His eternal nation.
Author Notes:
Loosely based on:
Josh 1:8; Rom 6:4,11, 13:14; Mark 4:24

on Today's Great Undead Poets from @weirdelf
"I think perhaps you have made the common error of mistaking prose for lack of prosody. Prosody being the physical structure of poetry, like rhyme and meter. Freeform poetry can still have prosodic values. I have read th…" -

on The Partridge in the Pear Tree from @weirdelf
"This is not a poetic interpretation. It is rather more an essay, even worse, a sermon. I somehow doubt that even if completely re-written with poetic values it would not amount to anything more. ps, Hamlet was a female…" -

on Poem: Sola Scriptura from @weirdelf
"Hidden layers of meaning, completely permeate The Word; they’re found by spiritual eyes and a desire for absolute Truth- to overcome the enemy’s lies. God, if there was one, lies and it is proven, his son, himself teach…" -

About Me
About me
People say I'm: honest, idealistic, analytical and that I think differently. According to Myer-Briggs, I'm: ENFJ. That translates to: a personality type of (slight) Extrovert, iNtuitive, Feeling, and Judgemental. In describing myself: I'm an IT (Information Technology) geek that writes Christian poetry. Soooo, hopefully, both sides of my brain work. If that wasn't enough, I'm also a natural Maine-iac.
