I know you're not supposed to be a distraction,
I just wonder what God was up to
when He made my soul's natural reaction
loving, trying, and dying for you.
It's not about needing your affection,
it's not about what you do or don't do
It is about your soul's affliction,
and the suffering I watch you go through.
I pray for the Lord's intercession
there's nothing He can't do.
And He tells me I can do nothing
except be there for you.
And so continue to hurt me,
if that's what you must do.
I just know my prayers are working,
even if I can't see what they do.
God is so much bigger than all of this.

Dear Lord,

I don't ask for much
It's a simple request

You see,
All I want
Is to smile again

But not a fake smile
One that's for show

But a genuine smile
For all the world to know

Amen
André Morrison Jun 2015
If I'm wrong about God
I've wasted my own life

If you're wrong about God
You've wasted your whole eternity

Amen, Bless you, I love thee
You are the one who guides me
Whether you're fiction or non-fiction
You have given thy a direction

Faith the is the buoyancy of life**,
Faith in up above keeps me alive,
The faith keeps me afloat,
The faith gives me hope
amen.
Jennifer Weiss May 2015
Walking in the world,
I have seen a lot of things.
Some things I wish I had not,
Some things that aren't really
what they seem.

But never have I seen
a love so beautiful and serene.
It captivates those who behold it,
and gives them things beyond
their wildest dream.

I want you to know,
Lover Most Supreme;
I don't want to take for granted
these gifts and miracles
You are blessing me with.
For I want
nothing to come
in between.
Help me keep my eyes on you, Lord.
Not on what you can do.

Epicentre of destruction, now Nepal
Chosen by destiny, very brutally
Terrains blew, and maps deformed
Lives lost, people slayed by almighty Lord

Not one, two, or three, plenty of them
Shot one after another, from below
Shaking and trembling, structures fall
Amassed devastation, no one can stop

In a time of need like this, for humanity
To help and console, Nepal community
Every soul prays for them
May all those are lost, rest in peace, Amen

May all those have lost their lives in Nepal earthquakes, rest in peace. No rhyme scheme is followed.

Do the good you can
wherever you go,
shine a light
like a beacon
of hope.
Listen to the voices that speak faith
not fear.
Take whatever is given unto you,
let it bless everyone's atmosphere.
And where your darkest battles have happened.
Where your faith once fell short.
Will become the place of gladness,
where waves of Joy crash upon the shores.
You can shine upon your brother's sadness
and bring him with you to the Lord.
May our God make impossible things happen.
Of this I am sure.
Whom the Son sets free, is free indeed

Amen...
A word used at the end of prayer
Meaning "we agree"
So why say it in harmony
If you don't even believe?

"I won't pray, but I'll close my eyes and say amen"
No, just close your eyes

Respect us
But don't lie

You can't agree that we are going to Heaven
If you don't believe in Heaven in the first place

"I don't believe in God"
Fair enough

"I don't care if I go to Hell"
But you don't believe in Hell, do you?

"I hate God"
No, no, no, you hate the concept of God, you don't even believe in him!

"I wanna fight Jesus"
Aw, come on, that's just disrespectful...

Regardless of whether or not God is real, he loves, or would love, you...

"Jesus sounds like a good guy..."
**Amen.
I've had this saved on here as a draft for ages... Believing in God has kind of turned into a joke to a lot of people over the past few years, so I didn't want people to laugh at this, but hey... This is just what I've been feeling as of late.

I'm too blessed
And too favored right now
To be in my bed
And not in a jail cell
The Lord heard my plea
He heard my cry
It was remarkable
It could've been more than a ticket
It could've been a mugshot
All over the internet
I could've been in handcuffs
But The Lord saved me
They said they wouldn't tell my job
Cause The Lord saved me
The Lord said that this night will not hender my chances to be someone
And my job on this earth is not over yet
And that I need to cleanse
I need to be clean for a while
I need to be careful for a while
I have to be sensible for a while
Open up my mind to a new found sobriety
I am lost and now I'm starting to see
That everything starts with a dream
Don't ever stop believing
In Jesus name I pray
Amen
When you get into trouble it really puts things into perspective about what you should be thankful for

Let's get drunk off cheap wine.
Make out under the stars.
Feelin' spiritual tonight.
Hallelujah, amen.

I worship the taste of my lover.
Soak up the sweat from his skin.
Feelin' spiritual tonight.
Hallelujah, amen.

Singing praises that sound like moans.
Sighing his name, scarring his back.
Feelin' spiritual tonight.
Hallelujah, amen.

Laying claim to the blessings.
Anointed by hot breath.
Feelin' spiritual tonight.
Hallelujah, amen.

Some would call this sin.
Some would condemn, but I'm
Feelin' spiritual tonight.
Hallelujah, amen.
