That is giving wolves a bad rap.
Sorry quinnfinn...

I must admit to being a
AWOL poet.
Sometimes things visceral
happen you are
TOTALLY
unpreraired for.
I honestly didn't see
this one coming, even though
I had had dreams of using
and had even at one time
planned a relapse.

Then I did it.

For days I have been weeping
and beating myself up.
I thought I had let everyone down

INCLUDING GOD.

I finally broke down and told
a Christian friend.

He laughed. "That's all?" He said...

God doesn't look at your mistakes
when you fall. He loves you anyway.
He looks at the redemption of Christ.
All HE sees is Jesus righteousness.
He sees you are sorry.

Once you are HIS
He will never leave you nor
forsake you. And He is not a man
that He should lie.

I am simply proving (once again)
that I am H U M A N.

I LOVE YOU ALL.

And I missed you.
If I go off site for a while
it has to do with a retreat I want
to be at. Please pray that I can go.

I know many of you are faithful to
Pray for me... THANK YOU!

GOOD THOUGHTS ARE WELCOME, TOO!

I NEED TO STOP ISOLATING AND GET
WITH MY DAD AGAIN TO WORK ON
THIS EPIC POEM WITH HIM!

♡♡♡♡♡

Woke up at 3:33 AM
Looked outside and it's raining
It was 85° yesterday and sunny

We could ALL learn a lesson
from the weather...

In loving memory of Clinton & Gladys, and for all who are grieving loved ones during this holiday season. I'm sorry for your loss and praying for you.

Blessings! ♡♡♡

This poem is a reaction to Wordvango's piece called "Garbage". It made me very sad. No poetry is worthless! Barbara Rosen was discovered when her music was discovered written upon paper used to wrap fish! I read this somewhere. A lesson for us all...

My last posting I indicated my mom's
now in the hospital...

I'm taking down my last post.
I REFUSE TO FEEL SORRY FOR MYSELF!
I'm reading as much as I can, too.
I won't let the devil win! Lol! :D

I'm sorry I'm not on site much anymore.
Personal struggle. Heard some folk are dissing the Lord, though. NOT COOL!

The devil is "glamorous". God is "boring".

Some say there's a party in hell.
Do you really want to test that theory?

If I come across as harsh in this or any of my other poetry, it's not because I DON'T CARE.  IT'S BECAUSE I DO!

I'm grieving ENORMOUSLY! I'M CRYING!

I don't hate YOU... I HATE THE DEVIL!
WITH A  P-A-S-S-I-O-N!!!

I want to destroy his works. And one of those works is his deception. There are actually a lot of people who believe there's a party in hell. Or that they will live forever in their current bodies and never experience it. Or that there is no hell.

THERE IS AN ACTUAL PLACE CALLED HELL! I cry like a baby when I hear about people who believed the above. Who believe there are many lifetimes if you don't get it "right" the first time.

SO MUCH D-E-C-E-P-T-I-O-N!!!
DON'T FALL FOR IT. YOU WILL GO!
I DON'T WANT THAT ANY MORE
THAN YOU DO!

Say this prayer...

Father God. Please forgive me for my disobedience and rebelliousness. I'm truly sorry from the bottom of my heart! I want to change! Forgive me my trespasses. I forgive all those who have hurt me.

Lord Jesus. I know that you died on the cross for my sins. That you rose on the third day. That your blood can purify me and to make me acceptable in the eyes of Father God. I accept your gift of salvation. Please come into my heart. Change Me From the Inside Out!
As it says in your word...

" for he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and by his stripes we are healed." Isaiah 53:5

Come Holy Spirit and fill me from head to toe. Teach me. Comfort me. Guide me.

I believe the Trinity is real. I believe I am now a child of God. Hallelujah!

In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. AMEN.

Say that prayer out loud with your whole heart! Your destiny could be changed

Forever!

♡ Catherine

This poem's rhythm scheme is based on the hymn "How Great The Father's Love". A fantastic "oldie"!

More and more I've been realizing that I've tried to be my own righteousness. I can't do it. Nobody can. That's why Jesus had to die. To reconcile us with the Father. It takes some gall to think of that I could be better than Jesus! But that's what I was doing trying so hard to be "good".

Please bear with me... I'm not back on the site yet. It's late and I have to go to bed. But I will try to be on tomorrow, God willing. Love you all!

*really, Really, REALLY
mad at God.*

*But I'm not going to **** myself, so don't worry. I'm just sick of life. It *****.*


*The above with the Asteriisks is not going to be taken down. It is how I felt at the time. At 8 p.m. I was going through the darkest night of the soul. I had run out of options. Literally. I didn't want to put up another writing, because I wanted to stay off site. But doing that writing worked out something in me. No. I did not drink or use. I faced the pain. I did not run. I wrestled with God, and He finally won. He always does. He's putting me through the fire for a reason. I really don't understand what that is yet, but there must be something good for the devil to be fighting this strongly! So I'm just hanging on. And I will have joy!

If anyone is going through real hardship like I was, just know that better days are ahead. Wrestle with God. He wants us to lay our fiercest anger at the altar. He's got big shoulders, and he can handle it. But don't die! That's like cutting your nose off to spite your face... And the end of that is more terrible than you could possibly imagine! Trust God! He will never disappoint, nor let you down. If you don't know how to accept him, go to a good bible-believing church and ask one of the elders for help. Your new life may have begun!

I'm alright. Just goin off site for a while. Be blessed everyone! Have a very merry Christmas!

Fear not the one who can destroy the body;
But fear the One who can destroy
both body and soul in hell

this is an exerpt from.a song
i had produced and hope to
have put up on youtube sometime
soon.

Members of the Cult of Scientology embody this perfectly. They are drones for money, power, control,  David Miscavige & L Ron Hubbard. Tragic.

HAL: the name of the evil ai
computer in 2001: A Space Odessey
B.E.A.S.T. Brussels Electronic

Big Brother: the Orwellian concept
of a "friendly" totalitarian system.

Thank you.

GOOD MORNING POETS!

The sad thing about gambling addiction
is you may not know that you're
addicted until it's too late...

I imagine my love singing this to me...
... only I know the TUNE...
... I'll have to teach it to him... <3

I have prayed and prayed about posting this. I'm basically taking the gloves off now. I can't mince words anymore. The time is very short. I may get flack for this poem, but it's from the heart. I don't want to see anyone lost because I did not do my job as a Christian. I know you are aware that I have been praying for the last few days. I've been outside talking to God. Studying and reading. I believe this is what God wants me to do. Please take it in the spirit in which it was meant... I LOVE YOU ALL!

The poem will come up on the screen.
You can read and hear simultaneously.

Please pray for my friend. Her name is Mary. She lives alone and has no medical insurance or money. Her credit card is maxed out. She doesn't even have money to pay her property taxes this year. But she's trusting in God. And we have found over the years that HE CAN BE TRUSTED!

Also pray that the Day of Rage doesn't ignite full on racial riots. Please pray against the forces of Darkness that are undoubtedly going to use this demonstration to stir up chaos.
My hometown Tucson Arizona is going to have one of these demonstrations. Please pray for us!

THANKS!

I'm going to start reading now. Please forgive that I have not read your work yet! This crisis came about this morning and now I have a lot of catching up to do...

L♡VE YOU ALL!

Based on two true stories
and the song by the Newsboys
entitled "Jesus Freak"

I never had the guts to stand on a
street corner though.

No hav' to smoka te ganga mon...
We got JEEESUS!!!

This is a song for children I wrote
a few years back. I plan to produce it on
Youtube. I've written the music, as well.

This is for a challenge Melz was
Going to do... perhaps she still
Will if there's interest...

This is a song for kids.

I really do feel this way...
A majority of the time!

Anyway, this is for
Pradip Chattopadhyay.
I hope this brings him a smile!

^_^

I went to a revival tonight & was delivered from a LOT of oppression. Praise the Lord! ♡♡♡

I think those ten words
say it all.

This is EXACTLY how I would feel
if my love died. I don't know if I
would carry out the act...

.... but I would die INSIDE.

I guess some people just
Can't be bought... hehe...
