I’m an Overcomer


The more I feel hopeless
the more I reach for hope
The more I feel faithless
the more I reach for faith
The more I feel no sense of belonging
the more I know I belong.

It’s the trick of the enemy
we all must see
he wants us to lose our identity
by giving in to his lies
as we experience our lives
but rebuke that old adversary in the name of Jesus Christ!

I will cleave to my hope and faith
for I belong,
in the arms of the One who makes me strong
to overcome the feign of the devil’s claim
I am an overcomer in Jesus name!

Nothingness


Nothingness surrounds me
I wonder around as though blind
the truth really does set you free
but not before making the hurt come alive

Expected ill expectations
breeding a degenerate combination
of hope?
Of peace?
Of faith?
I speak, as one impacted by the snare of the free

The freedom to forgive as nothingness overshadows me.

Be Alive with Words


Something keeps you going
when life seems to suck you dry
leaving you with incomprehensible thoughts
has you mourning and suffering great loss

Something keeps you going
beyond the shadow of its existential showing
Can you reach it?
Can you believe it?
Can you feel it though you can’t see it?

Is it it, or He or They
For He has said, “I am the Way”
The Way and the Word keeps life in our bones
refreshing our minds with His spoken prose
resurrecting your soul to the passions foretold
Be alive with Words of our Messiah and Lord.

Comfort I Seek


 

I just have to write
whatever will bring me peace
I just have to write
whatever will give me ease

It’s hard to see
what you are not looking for
It’s hard to receive
when you never expected more

I just have to write
it’s my way to speak
I shall not be restrained
for comfort I seek.
