FATHERHOOD
Joseph Fernandez Jun 2018
Step one, the first steps...
So Joyful was I of every single stride,
Impossible for me to hold back my teary eyed fatherly pride...

Not much more through the years could I have said with genuine adulation,
At times though a fathers words unspoken, will express volumes about his deepest hearts jubilation...

A balance of tenderness tempered with sympathy, things that have to take first place.
Discipline... must come in a way that will heal without any harmful trace.

To be a father is sincerely like nothing else,
To actually understand what our heavenly father feels and makes his heart melt...

Fatherhood, Fatherhood to me please be kind,
I beg you make the memories of my child's heart always desire to rewind...

"INVISIBLE THINGS"
Joseph Fernandez Jan 2017
Things in-between sometimes lost,
Things not recognized at great cost...

Things that compel,
Things that make us swell,
Things at times we fail to tell...

Things we know,
Things that flow,
things we do not show…

Things we wish we could control,
An unrealized future an aspiring goal...

Sometimes very real things are things Unseen,
Without tangibility on any physical scale or scene...

Nonetheless they still Impress,
Realities beyond what we all may possess...

However without these " Invisible things" would we really exist?
Kid yourself not, please try not To insist…

CONSEQUENCE OF BEING
Joseph Fernandez Jan 2017
Born without notice we function with limited ability,
Happenstance rules our otherwise deeply desired accomplished agility...

We stumble we fall we try to balance the awkwardness within our off-kilter equilibrium,
Trying always our best not to become just another unsuccessful idiom...

Saved we can be through our faith in the merciful kindness of one,
Though we will continue to fumble our brief minutes of life till all things offensive are undone...

Consequence of being it's what we have all been given,
Continuing on to the day we are completely forgiven...

J.I.F.
Joseph Fernandez Jul 2018
Things that expire such is THIS life that comes and goes,
As hard as we try no one ever really knows?

Here today are the plans of tomorrow,
Many times not coming to fruition along with great sorrow...

Things whispered in the wind will fly away,
As a whimsical ballerinas moves in her poetic ballet...

As we surly know!
We surly know not!
This is the way life is with its many times uncertain plot...

As results of writing in the sand is the day next,
Figuring it all out now will lead to being completely perplexed...

In his hand however writing is secure.
This we know for certain because all his hearts motives are faithful and pure.

J.I.F.


Isaiah 55:11
So my word that goes out of my mouth will be. It will not return to me without results, But it will certainly accomplish whatever is my delight, And it will have sure success in what I send it to do.

Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.”

WHEN EXACTLY WILL IT COME?
Joseph Fernandez Jun 2018
In the day those without faith think least,
That’s the day he will put in motion the prophesied wild beast.

Peace and security will come but not at their actual hands,
It’s the kings from the rising of the sun that bring about those final commands...

When the general thinking is the sky today looks clearly blue...
This is when he will make crystal clear what he intends to do...

Crashing down, the infamous harlot will completely burn,
Yes, this is what his righteous family does wholeheartedly yearn!

From mid-heaven down to the earth no place will be found...
Nowhere to hide from his judgement voice that the WORD will ultimately sound...

At the end of this day all wickedness will cease to a halt,
So (now) is the time best to practice being found without any fault...

No time will there be to rewind those fixable mistakes we continued to put off,
The hour is now to accept responsibility in one unhesitant quaff...

Thereafter, LIFE for those found clean and bright...
He guarantees them no enemy will be a match for his holy spirits might!

It is written that no one but he knows the actual day and hour,
Except perhaps his son to whom he has given all authority and power...

When exactly will it come, this we do not know?
But to those hearing with their heart, he now lifesaving truth does bestow...


J.I.F.

Revelation 16:12
The sixth one poured out his bowl on the great river Eu·phraʹtes, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the rising of the sun.

THUNDER
Joseph Fernandez May 2018
Crack Crash Boom!
Was that for me specifically, probably not...
However my nerves are trembling also ******* in a knot...

It’s that sound that we automatically relate to Gods disapproval and his desire that we do better,
The sound that instantly reminds us that we are everyones debtor...

Once it subsides we feel some relief,
But we do ponder our actions and how they pair with our belief...

We know that love is the motive for everything he does,
Yet the fear that it evokes is nothing less than a reverential buzz...

Thunder that booming sound that comes from the sky’s above,
For although we may not think it at first,
it is truly Gods wonderful voice of love.

J.I.F.


JOB 37:5

God thunders with his voice in a wonderful way; He does great things that are beyond our understanding.
Joseph Fernandez Sep 2018
Blue or green which will I choose?
Will my decision cause me someone precious to lose?

Many times a day opportunities do arise,
Will my choices make me fall, or rise?

Do we know who we are at any given moment,
Is a successful life made of only one component?

Looking back I desire of only looking forward...
With all that has past oh God, surly I’m cornered...

So even if we know not who we are when the suns brightness shines as it begins to rise?
He certainly does, should that really be a huge surprise...

THE ABODE OF HAUGHTY PRIDE
Joseph Fernandez Jun 2018
In this house we do not know flexibility,
Neither do we experience any real tranquility...

We turn down willing love that is given in freeness,
We get by pretending this is purely ingenius...

In this house we do not bow to any,
A disdained nod is more than plenty...

Solitary is the place we live,
Because it’s an inch we just won’t give...

Now arrived the hour of the crash before the fall,
Who now will be standing tall?

The realization of this preoccupation is all in the dysfunctional imagination,
Until too late do we not get the true interpretation...

If the abode of haughty pride is where you spend your  every day,
Remember please at the end the bill is hefty that you’ll have to pay...


J.I.F.

Proverbs 16:18,19
Pride is before a crash, And a haughty spirit before stumbling.  19 Better to be humble among the meek Than to share the spoil of the haughty.
Joseph Fernandez May 2021
Sometimes we just need to say to ourselves that things will turn out all right.
The fact is, life now is never going to stop being a constant bullfight.

Mental struggles everyday are with us it seems on the hour.
How will we persist, from where will we get the power?

Since things adverse will always find their way deep into our skin.
No sense in our infinitely looking back at the negatives of where we’ve been.

Going forward from where we are is the correct key.
It opens the only door to our positive sanity.

Hence on, when that next dilemma comes along what can we immediately say?
Very simply,
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay

I know that you are thinking, is this really going to do anything, and in you perhaps is much doubt?
But just think for a moment of all your past problems, and how you thought there was no possible way out.
Was God not always there to make you firm and stout?

The resolution came along did it not?
You certainly didn’t continue in the same confounding spot.

So once again I give you in just three words that with which to combat life’s endless situations of uncertain grey.
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay

An additional piece of most important and wise advice that will solidify our recovery in all of life’s quandaries.
Remembering always with wisdom from God, all solutions to our deepest problems have no boundaries.

He’ll give us the way out when we don’t know how?
Leave us to crumble when we are in a difficult predicament, he simply will not allow.

If we ask from a heart of sincerity for help, he will always be there.
Please remember, our Heavenly Fathers love for us, is beyond all compare!

As a father most compassionate, when faced with trials, can you hear the reassuring words he to us will tenderly say?
It’ll be okay...
It’ll be okay...


J.I.F.


Matthew 6:34
34 So never be anxious about the next day, for the next day will have its own anxieties. Each day has enough of its own troubles.

COLLISION COURSE WITH LIFE
Joseph Fernandez Apr 2018
It happened in an instant as quick as a blink,
There I was minding my own business then all of a sudden I started to sink...

All things around me we’re crashing about,
It was too horrifying a sight so I started to
pass out...

Was it a dream of sorts or was it reality,
Or was it some kind of heightened realm involving my spirituality...?

I tossed I turned as the walls around me started to burn,
This was a place to which I’d never want to return!

Turbulent tribulation everyday all around,
My entire existence has finally run aground!

Did it all start at my life’s inception,
Or was it all someone’s sadistic deception?

Crash we all will it’s as inevitable as it is rife,
A collision course is on its way, a collision corse with life.


J.I.F.

Ecclesiastes 9:11

11 I have seen something further under the sun, that the swift do not always win the race, nor do the mighty win the battle, nor do the wise always have the food, nor do the intelligent always have the riches, nor do those with knowledge always have success, because time and unexpected events overtake them all.
Joseph Fernandez Jul 2018
A new day has come into view,
A day that is full of the life that is true.

He will not dwell on our errors as if having in mind an unjust date of sentence,
Rather his love transcends inequity and will respond quickly to heartfelt repentance.

Why then do we not forgive at times our brother,
Are we not all just the same product of our original father and mother?

He who is above the errors that we all commit,
Is DESIRING to acquit...

The frame of mind and heart then that is most beneficial,
To be loving to all leaning towards sacrificial.  


J.I.F.

Psalm 130:3
If errors were what you watch, O Jah,Then who, O Jehovah, could stand?

A TRUE FRIEND
Joseph Fernandez Apr 2018
Who really is a true friend?
It’s someone that comes to your aid when the chips of life are down and does defend...

They will not allow any negative talk that destroys your worth, But will speak out words of wisdom that will give your character clarity and new birth...

Are there really such friends on this treacherous earth,
individuals that exist with such genuine purity of heart?
Ones with loyalty
that is off the standard friend chart?

There perhaps are only a few,
The one I know is you...


Proverbs 17:17
17 A true friend shows love at all times And is a brother who is born for times of (distress.)
Joseph Fernandez May 2018
Bad is good and good is bad...
Some things that start out happy do also become incredibly sad...

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is present,
Does it mean a life that is invisibly distraught somehow will become very pleasant?

If everyone in a room agrees with what the outcome should be,
Is love then shown more abundant and naturally?

Just because something hurtful is clearly visible to the naked emotion,
Does it mean you are anything more than a teardrop in a vast ocean?

Many riddles in life are puzzling though the answers are always inwardly perfect and clear...
If the only choice is obvious shouldn’t our hand continue going up to the auctioneer?

Loved life so much that I had to die,
Ready to go my way now captain,
aye aye...


J.I.F.


JOB 7:13-16

13 When I say, ‘My couch will comfort me; My bed will help ease my misery,’  14 Then you terrify me with dreams And frighten me with visions, 15 So that I would choose suffocation, Yes, death rather than this body of mine.  16 I loathe my life; I do not want to go on living. Leave me alone, for my days are like a breath.

Constantly colliding

Fighting the concept

Sticking around, I'll never be found...

Perhaps life is just easier

A FINE PEARL OF HIGH VALUE
Joseph Fernandez Dec 2019
Iridescence beyond imagination!
This describes his resplendent nation...

All within have his light of accurate knowledge which illuminates their spiritual steps...
Hence life everlasting burns brightly for all its energetic subjects...

Each day in this worldwide city will be better than the last,
Health an effervescent dance of bubbles, nothing like the days of our enfeebled past...

Like a perfect pearl of great beauty is this future and its not too far off,
Sadly it is not to be for indecisive ones, or those who’d laugh and scoff...

This fine pearl of high value belongs to those only that realize it’s precious worth,
Those that desire more than anything to live forever on his peaceful new earth...


J.I.F.


Matthew 13:45,46

45 Again the Kingdom of the heavens is like a traveling merchant seeking fine pearls.  46 Upon finding one pearl of high value, he went away and promptly sold all the things he had and bought it.

Psalm 37:11

11 But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.

2 Peter 3:3,4

3 First of all know this, that in the last days ridiculers will come with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires  4 and saying: “Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep in death, all things are continuing exactly as they were from creation’s beginning.

2 Peter 3:13

But there are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise, and in these righteousness is to dwell.
Joseph Fernandez Dec 2022
Imbalanced and unequal are many times the uncertain paths we mistakenly travel in this life.
Cutting us down at different junctions, it appears as with a jagged edged knife.

Which way will I next swerve, so as to forge straight ahead?
And will my sleep once more be lost as I swim in my sweat soaked bed?

Decisions, decisions at every turn.
Which way has the best lesson, that I may beneficially learn?

From where will I get the answers to this lopsided existence?
It seems whats right is wrong, and what’s wrong is right, with each day comes another 24 hours of dizzying persistence.

Up is down, and down is up.
They say it’s always better when you see things not as half empty, but a half full cup.

The fatal maneuver is to fool yourself into thinking that all is too far gone.
Because things sometimes do not change for their brightest, right up until the very end of dawn.

A crooked line will be made straight only if we use a good measure of faith.
Sometimes our prayers ascending will not be answered till we are at
10 to the power of the eighty eighth…

Life’s asymmetry is a battle of fact.
Compounded by a world that is utterly abstract.
Best we all read his words of wisdom, so as to stay on track.

It’s a lonely life that’s come to be mine.
This concept of solitude is with certainty not of origins divine.

Being alone is not what God almighty intended.
That’s why from the very beginning, the human family he extended…

Yet, here I am alone with nothing, and no one.

Welcome to love it’s very kind here and never will you see harm,
So please, no need for any alarm...

So no place will you see any brutality...

The day goes by with genuine happiness and no feeling of superiority of airs,
Hence, no condescending stares...

He has listened intently to every prayerful word,
And will erase everything that has made your heart stir...

IS EMPATHY UNLIMITED?
Joseph Fernandez Dec 2019
Caring and sharing doing our best to put empathy at the fore,
Not trifling or prone to keeping score...

This a most desired quality for those that have a guilty verdict written on them,
No doubt this was the way at the beginning, for their error though condemned...

A balanced view must be considered,
Lest we be unjustly embittered.

God almighty has the last call.
He decides not us what is or isn’t a recoverable fall...

Life to him alone belongs, us only the recipients of his wonderful gift,
Stay on the narrow road and you he will empathetically lift...

Empathy to be sure a quality always needed but not at all times completely understood,
Not all empathy is uncomplicated as is in perhaps our childhood...

In a perfect world will empathy be still be around?
No doubt everywhere you look it will truly abound...

UNDESERVED GIFTS
Joseph Fernandez May 2020
Drops that gently fall down from the sky...
These give us a quiet moment to reflect and ponder why?

Have we done anything to deserve such an orchestrated treat?
Symphonies by musical “masters” have not the ability to make our hearts as calm with every splashing beat.

A baby giggles and all is well.
How is it something so simple will make our heart joyously swell.

Beauty around us every which way we lsten and look.
He also has imparted valuable life giving gifts, all written down in his matchless guidebook.

His only begotten he has given that we may have everlasting life!
With this gift we see his genuinely selfless love, allowing us opportunity to cancel all our sin and strife.

Countless gifts he has given though sometimes we may not pause to truly give ear and see.
It’s up to us to endeavor to allow the peace he wants us to have now and forever, endlessly?

He is inclined towards giving us his best!
Gifts we don’t deserve, yet he will supply abundantly, upon our faithful request.

ANXIETIES WORTH?
Joseph Fernandez Aug 2022
Do not incessantly think about tomorrow because it may not come.
And as far as yesterday, well that’s already done.

To be or not to be, is that the entire question?
These next few lines friends, are not merely a silly suggestion...

Alive or not, we all only really exist in God’s perfect memory.
Everything within this temporarily flawed system, is surely in constant jeopardy.

With all our strength take advantage of each gifted day.
Doing our best to do what we know is right in his eyes, as we fervently pray…

Truth be told
we are all equally the same.
Here today gone tomorrow, life for everyone is as delicate as a flickering flame...

Troubles constantly, but nothing that is uncommon to every existing individual human entity.
By now we should know that each day will have more than enough, yes more than plenty…

Anxieties do have their place, however it’s not for you to give them another thought.
Pass them on to me he has said, that I may prove to you my strong and caring support.

Next my crescendo for you to take away.
No confusion or lack of momentum, that I may not somehow inadvertently cause you to stray...

Anxieties worth?
equivalent to nothing at all!
It’s this type of deep pondering, that leads one into a disastrous fall...

So read and listen to the scriptures that follow and please do take them to heart.
Because with only solid faith will life’s anxieties not be able to pull you apart...

THE BETTER WORLD
Joseph Fernandez Oct 2021
Occupied by this somber existence, we as in a trance are transfixed.
Tragedy, theirs, yours or mine, we all pray it could sooner than later be fixed.

First, the ruler of this chaos will need to be gone, and all those that follow him, they too must certainly go!
Jehovah’s angels and others will clean up the mayhem, and into the abyss the evil one, Michael for 1,000 years will throw!

What will it take till we actually turn the final corner, and the end of all wickedness come around?
When will the seventh trumpet finally blow that triumphant sound?

Everyday through it all we are able to see it clearly in our minds eye.
The better world he’s promised, the one where no one we love will ever have to die.

Clinging to his word we have solid faith he will not allow darkness to continue indefinitely.
Bright never-ending peace will come for the meek, for the sake of his name, and those he holds near to his heart, very affectionately.

The better world will soon be here, there’s no doubt it is close and very near.
The one where not even a single broken heart will exist, and shed another painful tear.

As we know, outwardly all of us are at best rough.
Constantly trying to smoothen our mere adequacy, never feeling we’re enough.

No one, including we ourselves, sees us as he.
That true beauty he will in a future day, completely set free.

Radiance beyond our mentally physical comprehension.
It only seen within his purely spiritual dimension.

Tenderness we at times have displayed when we have allowed love to lead the way.
When we unselfishly gave, and allowed to us back, no one to pay.

He sees all the heavy things you have helped others to lift.
All your efforts are noticed by him, and are written on your unique essence list.

Polishing one facet at a time to a gleaming brilliance.
Helping us each day to build our everlasting resilience.

He sees the valuable diamond inside of us, and is aware how hard we try.
He also sees the mistakes we have made, and how they make us break down and cry.

So don’t give up, and stick to those worthwhile truths he you has taught!
Also never forget it’s with his sons precious blood, your inner diamond was bought!

Information, information everywhere you go...
Still, many millions haven't a real clue, unfortunately, they refuse to know?

Touch the screen and up comes every useless statistic you ever wanted…
Still life in general is no better off, the majority are perplexed, they are in a collapsed state, yes, mentality daunted.

Is learning all things THIS world has to offer the paramount goal in life?
Sometimes too many details is a double edged sword, ultimately dismembering your spirituality, like a razor sharp knife...

It is written, to be innocent as doves but cautious as serpents, said Jesus Christ our heavenly master.
Without question, he was guiding us away quite possibly from our irrevocable disaster…

Many things are advantages but not necessarily beneficial.
Perhaps because what this worlds "knowledge" has to offer is mostly artificial...

When it comes to information, the TRUTH of any matter is only that which is entirely needed.
This a sure protection from ever letting ourselves get too cerebrally depleted...

Only God above has every correct answer as to what is really worthwhile.
This information only, will make all the difference, the day we individually go on trial.

Ecclesiastes 12:10-13

10 The congregator sought to find delightful words and to record accurate words of truth. 11 The words of the wise are like oxgoads, and their collected sayings are like firmly embedded nails; they have been given from one shepherd.  12 As for anything besides these, my son, be warned: To the making of many books there is no end, and much devotion to them is wearisome to the flesh. 13 The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole obligation of man.

A place that manifest not as much as a spec of corrupting levin…

A location up high, that is pure in all its way’s.
And with the meting out of righteous justice, there will be to his satisfaction, not any delay’s…

The abode of love is how I would start my very limited explanation.
Where it’s occupancy has peace as its main objective, and willing obligation.

Unlike at this time, the earths directors and it’s inhabitants, which experience unrest everyday.
In heaven, kindness personified is it’s ruler, and joy is it’s continuous replay.

Is it really possible that a dwelling such as this does exist?
Hard to imagine from the perspective of this troubled world, but let’s take a closer look using the Holy Bible as our credible checklist.

He that reins there has from the ultimate authority been given top executive function above all others.
However, everyone within his administration are the truest of brothers.
Matthew 28:18
Revelation 22:9

His only aim is to finish for mankind his fathers loving will.
In his name all turbulence from sin he will end for those that choose so, what a unimaginable thrill!
John 4:34
Luke 1:76,77

The end result will bring to fruition the long awaited prayer for an earthly society that resembles every heaven high standard.
And forevermore will no question as to heavens existence, be left unanswered.

THE RESURRECTION
Joseph Fernandez Jul 2021
He said come, and millions dead for many days and centuries heard his designated voice!
Also a great crowed of others, in tears began to unceasingly rejoice!

This wonderful day will no doubt be hundreds of years long.
Each one hearing the call will surely say the sound of it was sweet as a melodiously song!

No more darkness in lifelessness will hinder the love he’s awaited to share.
For he is a God of the living, and will give them the breath of life, with plenty to spare.

They arose refreshed and feeling completely new!
Their vision of the future if they choose, is perfect, with a crystal clear view.

No more dreadful sleep, arise and join life once again!
Touch and feel your limbs for this is real, and most certainly not pretend.

Yes, the resurrection will begin right on time, and to the top of Jehovah’s spiritual mountain, without tiring they will vigorously climb!
Life then for everyone loving the true God will everyday be absolutely prime!

John 5:28 28, 29

Living in the present,
but dwelling on the past.
Conducive to making our life any longer last?

Once given our fervent prayer of pleas, are they possible again to retrieve?
Are not our errors of yesterday better left in his trustworthy reprieve?

If yesterday is gone why continue to live there?
Why do we carry on sentencing ourselves, and over and over, us rip and tear?

Convicted or exonerated!
Though we are impotent in these extreme terms we everyday constantly them ponder…
With what right to judge ourselves or anyone else, is that not within his sole  jurisdiction, to capably conquer?

The future is brighter when fully trusting his merciful forgiving ability.
Lest we forget he truly understands our inherent fragility...

Yesterday gone, tomorrow now here.
Let's take this fresh opportunity to fully incline our willing hearts, and to his compassionate standards, wholly adhere...

Lamentations 3:22,23

3 Do not put your trust in princes Nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation.  4 His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish.

Psalm 103:14 is many times misunderstood.
Would anyone build a structure, like a house, out of dust?

No, because dust is a (fragile) substance.

Jehovah remembers, and never forgets that we are fragile, and lovingly deals with us according to our well understood makeup.

He certainly gave us an extraordinary example as to how we should interact with all others, especially our young children.


Philippians 2:3,4
3 Do nothing out of contentiousness or out of egotism, but with humility consider others superior to you,  4 as you look out not only for your own interests, but also for the interests of others.
Joseph Fernandez Sep 2022
I received the most precious treasure, I must confess.
With this wonderful favor, have you also been blessed?

It came from above and brings me comfort everyday.
And as with any purely perfect present, it was free, and I did nothing pay.

What is this gift of which I speak?
A clue, it’s been around since the beginning, and to some is considered, very antique.

Many however have said, things that are older are not worth as much, as some things new.
However, it’s unique value is in it’s ability to give us the power needed each day and carry us through…

Never before had I any idea what his future would bring, and I surely did not internally, completely conceive.
That all history of pain and suffering would one day be gone, also the sorrow that had made hundreds of millions grieve.

So what was the most valuable gift I ever received?
It was the truth from God, about how I could with confident faith, all his promises believe…

TIMES PERSONIFIED REPLY:
Joseph Fernandez Oct 2023
From the moment we enter into motion of time.
We ask ourselves questions that demand logical reason and rhyme…

We acutely have an intricate sense of our intellectual awareness.
Our thoughts racing night and day, our thirst to know, is limitlessly relentless…

Time seems to vanish, while all the while gracefully appearing…
It moves with moments ever so puzzling, as we endure in our daily battles, teaching us what is in fact, persevering…

We ponder the future that is yet to come?
Also we think deeply of this, where did everything come from?

Time, are you giving us more?
Perhaps we can run out and get additional years, and stuff you away in some mental drawer?

Alas, that isn’t the way it is to be.
Time you have no capture, you are unbound, and your will is utterly free...

The reality, we look in the mirror and what do we see?
Time you have been all along charging us each day, incrementally...

Time you are there on every of life’s occasion.
You are holding us prisoner with your preciseness of ticking, in our entire existents equation.

Time, I wonder do you really care?
Please do not leave me in such broken despair.
Answer me, and please with compassion be complete, as well as insightful, otherwise my next breath will be lacking sufficient air…

Time, because in all life’s past you’ve been present, and will be there to greet infinity’s future you should know where the answers are found, so for me this once please
propound…

Times personified reply:

The answers you seek
I personally know not, however I will tell you where you may with all confidence look.
It is my advanced understanding, they have always been written down in his one and only authentic book.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-9
There is an appointed time for everything, A time for every activity under the heavens:  2 A time for birth and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what was planted; 3 A time to **** and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up; 4 A time to weep and a time to laugh; A time to wail and a time to dance; 5 A time to throw stones away and a time to gather stones together; A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing; 6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away; 7 A time to rip apart and a time to sew together; A time to be silent and a time to speak; 8 A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace.

18 But the nations became wrathful, and your own wrath came, and the appointed time came for the dead to be judged and to reward your slaves the prophets and the holy ones and those fearing your name, the small and the great, and to bring to ruin those ruining the earth.

2 Timothy 3:16,17
16 All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness,  17 so that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.

I  told you how I felt in all candid sincerity,
You however may have thought I could’ve shown much more warmth and charity...

My goal most truly was always with your best interest at heart,
At times though even our best loving intentions instead of fusing together may pull apart.

Please, please! never think I am not on your side!
For I most truly do love you daughter, of this I never ever to you have lied.

Certainly the meaning behind love is always to be honest and kind.
Our purity in conveying it at times will perhaps not function this way, but instead appear to be deaf dumb and blind.

No, our love is not always perfect and perhaps also not clear as crystal.
However, I promise it’s intentions at length will eventually hit its target, as does a launched guided missile.

To all children this advice about love, and I ask you to kindly keep this open perspective.
Please never lose sight of your fathers love and his I internal tender objective...

DREAMING IN REALITY
Joseph Fernandez Jun 2022
Once upon a time in the midst of imitation actuality.
I found myself swimming in a backwards leery fantasy.

All was right by way of daily life and activity.
Of course a correct personal perception, most times will be subject to a
self-advantaged strategy.

The realism of facts will escape the majority.
All is better when perplexity is pushed far away into another galaxy.

A foggy view is perhaps “clearer.”
Not having a crystalline mirror image is sometimes kinder to us, when it’s not nearer.

Dreaming in reality will wake us up, but only if we choose…
This is certainly not easy to do, because then we will have only us ourselves to accuse…

THE QUESTION OF LIFE
Joseph Fernandez May 2021
The days go by at lightning speed.
A constant reminder of the impermanence of our humanities creed.

Where will we go on that day, the one we all fervently try to push away?
We all want it to be lovely, of this we daily pray.
Oh how much more would we here with our loved ones, rather stay.

Going, going, gone since the beginning of mankind’s time.
No more so called mountains, left to climb.

As with one, so is every other.
All on the same boat as our common brother.

Life is a whisper hushed by the final act of the equalizer.
In this respect no one is better, no one the wiser.

Live calmly today for tomorrow has already passed.
This certainly is how it goes by, don’t blink, it’s incredibly fast.

The question of life then has been asked and answered.
This since the beginning of our fall, this is the only measured standard.

WILL SUFFERING EVER END?
Joseph Fernandez Nov 2023
Everyone is intimately familiar with suffering.
So much so that it’s become commonplace to always try to achieve the best antidote for buffering.

It’s a constant that just does not go away.
So we all are forced to reluctantly play.

However, this game has penalties that affect us long term.
Like a miss judged grab at a scolding hot ***, it will for quite a while burn.

Will the suffering of this world ever cease?
Will we ever live endless days in absolute peace?

Have you heard of the promises of Jehovah, the almighty God that is able all his promises deliver?
We can have faith in his word, for he is the ultimate law giver.

His statutes though will never be a burdensome bother.
Because unlike imperfect humans, he is the universes most loving father.

The answer is yes, suffering will in his due time, come to an end.
And I know, because it’s all we’ve ever known, it’s hard to comprehend.
However have strong faith, the day soon approaches when he will suffering forever suspend!

IQ OF THE HEART
Joseph Fernandez Feb 2021
There are those that have quite the bit of cerebral ability.
These though often times are noticed by many as unfortunately lacking deep seated affection or affability.

Priority is their staunch pursuit for self-serving conclusions.
The immediate goal, to satiate their theories of convoluted illusions.

Understanding the evident solution, however receiving no clear answers.
Their stupefying intelligence has given them brain fog, with no cure for mankind’s malignant cancers.

Unable to recognize that
a life deeply satisfying is not found in some formulated computation.
Consequently their calculations are not able to achieve a heaven high graduation.

In contrast, the IQ of the heart, with it’s MASTERS degree in wisdom from above, unsurpassed is his ability to think in terms of infinite love.
Only this quality produces precise explanations, fitting as the proverbial glove.

The day will arrive for those lost through millenniums of time…
Yes, we all are well acquainted how generations have had to pay with their lives, for Adam and Eves disobedient crime.

Shortly though, as prophecy unfolds, he will make well all the broken hearted.
Because of his perfect memory of them, a fresh new day, soon to be started…

Yes, the hour is coming, and it is as though it is here now.
By virtue of his unfailing prophetic word, they are as if already back, simply put, because no one is able to break his vow.

Kindness he will show to those that are no longer able to exhibit kindness anymore, it is then he will restore their extinguished animated spark of light.
This magnanimous gift he will bestow to many millions, yes this multitude he will cordially back to life, invite.

He that has the ultimate power is the one that intimately their darkness does understand.
Yes, they will hear his chosen envoys merciful shout to awaken, and they will irresistibly heed his affectionate command...

For all his fathers ways are audible and filled with eons of times brightness.
So no more will they remain neither silent nor sightless.

Nothing other than the might of Jehovah will be able to interrupt the rest from which they have gone to.
Yes, they will awaken with abundant vigor, with bodies that are restored, yes, even better than new…

Awaken from your slumber, and please do arise!
And if you so desire, take part in your heavenly father’s everlasting gifted prize…

Romans 3:23
23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and it is as a free gift that they are being declared righteous by his undeserved kindness through the release by the ransom paid by Christ Jesus.

Romans 5:12
12 That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned—.

Romans 6:23
23 For the wages sin pays is death, but the gift God gives is everlasting life by Christ Jesus our Lord.

John 11:11,14,43
11 After he said these things, he added: “Lazʹa·rus our friend has fallen asleep, but I am traveling there to awaken him.”

14 Then Jesus said to them plainly: “Lazʹa·rus has died,

43 When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Lazʹa·rus, come out!” 44 The man who had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Free him and let him go.”

Luke 7:11-15
11 Soon afterward he traveled to a city called Naʹin, and his disciples and a large crowd were traveling with him.  12 As he got near the gate of the city, why look! there was a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother. Besides, she was a widow. A considerable crowd from the city was also with her.  13 When the Lord caught sight of her, he was moved with pity for her, and he said to her: “Stop weeping.”  14 With that he approached and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. Then he said: “Young man, I say to you, get up!”  15 And the dead man sat up and started to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.  

Luke 8:41,42a 49-56
41 But look! a man named Jaʹi·rus came; this man was a presiding officer of the synagogue. And he fell at the feet of Jesus and began to plead with him to come to his house,  42 because his only daughter, who was about 12 years old, was dying.

49 While he was yet speaking, a representative of the presiding officer of the synagogue came, saying: “Your daughter has died; do not bother the Teacher any longer.”  50 On hearing this, Jesus answered him: “Have no fear, only have faith, and she will be saved.” 51 When he reached the house, he did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John, James, and the girl’s father and mother. 52 But people were all weeping and beating themselves in grief for her. So he said: “Stop weeping, for she did not die but is sleeping.”  53 At this they began to laugh at him scornfully, because they knew she had died. 54 But he took her by the hand and called to her: “Child, get up!”  55 And her spirit returned, and she rose immediately, and he ordered that something be given her to eat.  56 Well, her parents were beside themselves, but he instructed them to tell no one what had happened.

John 5:28,29
28 Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice  29 and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.
Side Note:
Jesus documented resurrections, for what purpose?

To give us proof that not even death is a barrier for Jesus father, Jehovah.
When the time arrives, he willingly will restore the free gift of life to millions.

As with all the examples in the scriptures, they were all resurrected back to life on earth.
Likewise too, all future resurrections of life, will be restored here to the earth.

Side Note Two:
With the number of suns in existence for an unknown number of years within the universe’s billions of galaxies.
Each of these possible trillions, giving off sustained unmeasured dynamic energy powered by God almighty himself.
Is that source that effortlessly supports all these not able to bring back any amount of dead ones by reanimation, and also sustain their billions of lives forever on this, our one lilliputian planet, by physical scal in comparison?

Isaiah 40:26
26 Lift up your eyes to heaven and see. Who has created these things? It is the One who brings out their army by number; He calls them all by name.  Because of his vast dynamic energy and his awe-inspiring power, Not one of them is missing.

He made accusations, said if you believe me, you’ll be delivered...

Then the fall was set and ready for the ****,
Yes his trap he placed with conniving skill…

Here now we are inheritors of this monumental folly,
Ball now in our court how will we return the volley?

If I was found tomorrow in a pool of my profoundest sorrow, just put on your bravest face.
Because at last for me it’s over, this most contemptible rat race.

And ceased to be around.
Please let not my fading memory make you inconsolably frown.

For I am in a better state without the constant barrage of quandary.
Life now has it’s completed boundary.

Just keep your tattered dreams that me only just ever confused???

While the world around us goes completely insane!
We strive everyday to cleanse our hands from any blame.

Will mankind, on its own be able to succeed?
So common nowadays it’s considered just good entertainment, to see someone bleed.

No surprise to us, as we have been educated about how in the days of Noah, so would the days of the son of man be.
Who but Jehovah, would’ve been able to prophesy this acute mess, and with such preciseness foresee?

We must remember though that love is our heavenly father’s foremost outstanding quality!
He looks at every individual with respectful and tender equality…

Emulating his personality is of course a choice.
Clothed with it, we are able to wear it in such a way that will actually make HIM rejoice.

Father we humbly ask you help us not to cower!
Especially at this evident time, of this wicked world’s final hour!

Our unity amidst chaos comes from our knowing that your ultimate will, most certainly will be done.
So jointly with this state of mind and heart, we continue without let up, to reach as many as possible with the good news of your appointed son, and how he will soon usher in your everlasting kingdom.

UNCUT DIAMONDS, WE ARE
Joseph Fernandez Feb 2021
All are shaped in one way or another by this worlds twisted illusions.
Allowing ourselves sometimes subconsciously we fumble in and out of self appointed delusions.

If not careful, pressures in life will make to our detriment unsatisfactorily who we ultimately are.
Many though allow the squeezing to push them in a Godly direction, these of course will go everlastingly far.

To God almighty, all of us have untapped bright beauty deep within.
Mankind is made in his image, it assuredly is intrinsically well beneath the surface of our skin.

The most emotionally resilient materials as the earth, are our inward make up.
All we have to do is explore his word of truth with the proper tools, so as to wake up!

A lump of coal has brilliant potential although its dull properties are only what are seen by the human eye.
But It’s endmost clarity will astonish the vision, once faceted, and hit by the sun in the sky.

Uncut diamonds we are, it’s what we all have in common with one another brother.
Should it really be a surprise this was always known about us by our Heavenly Father...


J.I.F.

John 3:16

For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.

INFINITY
Joseph Fernandez Jul 2022
To the human mind that is intimately unfamiliar with the concept of forever.
Striving for this elusive concept is a baffling endeavor.

Are things not naturally understood, nonexistent?
Things that our minds cannot perhaps reach, that are just too far distant?

The range of certain facts  that are at present conceivable by only its designer.
May to us be complicated, but to him only a matter that is very minor.

Subjects not comprehended, perhaps taking an infinite time frame to understand?
However having a complete grasp of every detail at present, is not something he currently decrees by strict command.

Instead of being preoccupied with an insatiable goal to discover what the future will hold for endless days…?
No doubt our limited time and wisdom is best utilized in his confidence, so that he may receive our deepest worthy praise.



J.I.F.



Jeremiah 17:7

7 Blessed is the man who puts his trust in Jehovah, Whose confidence is in Jehovah. 8 He will become like a tree planted by the waters, That sends out its roots to the stream. He will not notice when heat comes, But his leaves will always flourish. And in the year of drought he will not be anxious, Nor will he quit producing fruit.

1 John 2:17
17 Furthermore, the world is passing away and so is its desire, but the one who does the will of God remains forever.

Psalms 37:29

29 The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it.

PERFECT IMPERFECTIONS
Joseph Fernandez Apr 2020
PERFECT
Imperfections


No one is perfect in human form this is a fact!
But let us now make a imperfectly perfect pact.

You see it’s not always what is perfect by symmetrical standard at every angle that will create something that looks correct.
But it’s the inner eye of dimension that we individually conceive as our flawless introspect.

We all contribute our own facets to every equation that we assemble in our minds eye that is ideal.
This is what gives everything we may scrutinize it’s genuine appeal.

Picasso was abstract in his reality based expressions.
Every one of us are likewise distinctive with our uniquely assessed impressions.

Almighty God you are perfect in all analysis of what is love and that surely gives us unlimited heartfelt glee!
Of this we are aware because everyday you observe our perfect imperfections, and continue to share your love and mercy,
relentlessly...


J.I.F.

ROMANS 8:38,39

For I am convinced that neither death nor life nor angels nor governments nor things now here nor things to come nor powers  39 nor height nor depth nor any other creation will be able to separate us from God’s love that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 JOHN 4:8

Whoever does not love has not come to know God, because God is love.
Joseph Fernandez Feb 2021
Let’s gain some perspective of the reality at large.
No matter how you slice it, people are not the ones in charge.

We flounder around with all our strengths best.
Here one moment, then gone like the rest.

Why then do we at times act unrighteously prideful or haughty?
Although deep inside we understand this concept is one hundred percent faulty.

On the grand scale of things pound for pound we with the earth measure as nothing.
Zero point zero, even filled led stuffing.

He is awesome in power however his mightiness is tempered with delicate gentleness.
This is why he is abounding in matchless eminence.

Love is what he is, and life everlasting is his purposed gift.
Have no reservations for those worthy, he this world will finely sift.

From dust we came and to dust we’ll return.
Specs are what we are, when will we this clear object lesson learn?


J.I.F.

Jeremiah 10:23
I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step.

Genesis 2:7
And Jehovah God went on to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living person.

Psalm 103:14-16
For he well knows how we are formed, Remembering that we are dust. 15 As for mortal man, his days are like those of grass; He blooms like a blossom of the field.  16 But when a wind blows, it is no more, As though it was never there.

STRONG MEN CRY
Joseph Fernandez Nov 2021
When things in life hurt, and there’s no other way for my pain to divert.
It’s tears I feel I must insert.

The strongest man in the history of all time.
Did so when about to be falsely accused of many a crime.

Perhaps you too are in this way inclined?
Nothing wrong with letting others know how you feel, it’s just the way we were designed.

Expressing emotion is not for the weak.
It takes strength to show your interior spiritual physique.

Yes, strong men cry.
In this short life, sometimes it’s the only genuine reply…


J.I.F.


John 11:33
Jesus gave way to tears.
Joseph Fernandez Jan 2021
In the world today there is a prevalent illusion.
It confounds the masses with abounding confusion.

Not knowing which way is righteous.
In mental darkness they stumble as people sightless.

Clinging to entities that merely spin round and round.
Producing nothing beneficial, zero solutions have they found.

Locked out of spiritual light of truth, and not having the key.
They look at the current ugly conditions, and yet are not able to focus and see.
All the while their wicked jailer with cunning machinations continues laughing at their fumbling, and will not set them free.

Every day they continue the same, bad to worse.
Daily they think up new ways to be even more perverse.

Knock knock! Good news to all is what we bear!
Any amount of time we sincerely are willing with you to share.
Truly without Jehovah you will not be able to bear!
Loving brothers, no way what’s coming will they be able to say is unfair.

The hopes they have for the wicked world they desire.
Soon to be burned with Jehovah’s anger, as a consuming fire.

No institution can save their wicked world.
Soon all parts into oblivion will they be hurled.

Neither religious, political, technologies or money will have success.
Only Jehovah, through his kingdom, is able to once and for all, fix this mess.


J.I.F.

FEAR vs LOVE
Joseph Fernandez Mar 2020
Darkness falls and life goes black,
Fear sets in like an imminent heart attack!

All around things seem so pandemic,
Fears spread like an out of control epidemic...

Supply’s are running out and scarce are the necessities,
No time to think of any comforting amenities...

Just then light breaks through from the heavens above,
Peace descends as a innocent dove...

Yes his hope comes our direction by way of accurate information,
Helping us move with the proper inclination...

Yes in the end all fears lose to the love of his goodness,
His kingdom then enters in with its complete fullness...


J.I.F.

Luke 21:26

People will become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

Romans 8:31

What, then, are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who will be against us?
Joseph Fernandez Nov 2021
Too much time has passed that you shouldn’t have let go by.
Pain has held you back, that came from those destroyed places deep down, that made you cry.

It’s not fare for you to continue this way!
If you don’t stop your heart will ultimately rot from decay!

Waiting till life hurts no more to live again, is like existing in a world that is not real or childishly pretend…
Yes, zealous action is needed for you to mend.
No worries, it’s worth every ounce of energy that you will expend.
Up to you to be your very worst enemy, or your very good friend?

Moving forward, after so long, it at first may actually seem
counter-productive.
However when you do, things will steadily get incredibly constructive.

It’s now your move, so wait no more!
It’s time for you to open that many years long shut door.
Like a lion in the jungle you are free, and it is your time to roar!
Because,
YOU JUST CAN’T (WAIT) TILL LIFE DOESN’T HURT ANYMORE!


J.I.F.
Joseph Fernandez Mar 2021
Peaceful and bright is the outlook I see.
Like never before the future is ten by ten, complete in it’s clarity.

My heart has lifted me to a new height as never before.
Everyday it’s brightness burns inside me, more and more.

He gives a heart of wisdom and boundless comprehension to those who really want to understand.
Nothing out of reach because he’s got the sky, the moon, the stars, and of course the whole world in his capable hand.

Vision of a physical nature may allow us to see what is directly before us.
However, spiritual sight of the heart is illuminating our hope to
Infinity plus.


J.I.F.


Psalm 27:14

Hope in Jehovah; Be courageous and strong of heart.  Yes, hope in Jehovah.

Revelation 7:9,10

After this I saw, and look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands.  10 And they keep shouting with a loud voice, saying: Salvation we owe to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb.”
