RHYME THYME

Blossoming thyme

Dear friends, guess what? I published a second volume of poems! -- it is available online @ AuthorHouse, Amazon & B&N - the cover features a section of our beloved Northeast El Paso Franklin mntns!

Below are 3 or 4 new poems; the last one ALWAYS is inspired by a Swaziland blogpost from John and Kay.

Merry Christmas!
Love you all, Jeff

ON MY KNEES

On my knees,
I hear God's voice;
On my knees,
I see His face.

On my knees,
I sense His joy;
On my knees,
I feel His grace.

On my knees,
The World stops.
On my knees,
Heaven speaks!

On my knees,
I lose myself;
On my knees,
I am humbled

On my knees,
I find freedom;
On my knees,
I rest in peace.

1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence  of many witnesses.

FIGHT THE FEELING

Fight the feeling,
Wait for faith;
Wait for Jesus,
He's the Way.

Fight the feeling,
Resist bad news;
Look for Jesus,
He's the Truth.

Fight the feeling,
Do what is right;
Follow Jesus,
He's the Life.

Fight the feeling,
Stay in the Light;
Guard your heart,
Fight the good fight.

A thanksgiving poem:

THANK GOD

Thank God for Jesus,
Thank God for love;
Thank God for freedom,
Thank God above.

Thank God for Jesus,
Thank God for light;
Thank God for wisdom,
Thank God for life.

Thank God for Jesus,
Thank God for Truth;
Thank God #conscience,
Thank God #GoodNews.

Thank God for Jesus,
Thank God #salvation;
Thank God forgiveness
has come from Heaven.

Matthew 28:19-20

ALWAYS

Always I am with you,
You're My mind & soul;
Always I am with you,
You're My heart's goal.

Alive in truth taught,
Alive in fruit preached;
Alive in songs you sing,
Alive in gifts you bring.

Always I am with you,
My child, my mission,
Always, I am with you,
You're my only reason.

Alive in your tears,
Alive in your touch,
Alive in healing prayer;
Alive in mercy and love,
My friend, I am with you always!

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world-Amen.
Matthew 28:19-20 KJV
