#holiness poems on Hello Poetry

When all is well
We praise God
  Word holy and true
   We praise God
    When all has fell
     We hear God
    How we know who Is Powerful
     A perfect authority
    A redeeming cross
   A saving sacrifice
  A reason for hope
A purpose to life
A love unending

To create direction is to design. Design is a method of planing. Gods sovereign authority over His creation is the basis of truth. Without first recognizing the necessity of God to be in control, then the concept of making desisions has no foundation. Choices are what we share in common with God. As God chose to send his son, we choose to follow his son. Humanity is sinful and God is perfect. In order to be counted worthy to be in His presence in paradise one must first choose to follow Him in Jesus Christ to learn holiness as a student of the only Good Teacher. Gods wants a personal relationship with His followers so that we made learn of His Holy person, Jesus Christ of Nazareth the redeemer and friend of sinners.

falling away

these pieces / found in mud / beneath the water / where we stitched them / as feathers / on Michael’s spine / and ****** / kisses you / like God / could fear you

may dirt / on your jawbone / make you holy / and blood / on your mouth / make you thirst / and you / in moments / as glory

and we prayed / we prayed / we pray

divinity

Praise my pillowcases and her shoulderblades

which carry my horrors so soundlessly

Press kisses to the mouths of ghosts that sing

and the lullabies I swallow like prozac

and bless you, angel, who told me I was Holy

and I told you I was *God

Graal de la sainteté ( Grail of holiness) french tongue

i.

The breadth of her aura
Stretcheth like a veil;
From the philippines, she was created of tropical tree detail.

ii.

As one entereth her extrasolar city
Thou shalt findeth there's no need for the sun or the moon;
She is the light, the scintillate of star clustered room's.

iii.

Just beyond the river Jordan
Where stream's of heaven tint;
She's not for sale, she's the grail of the gate's of holiness.

Breadth means the width of something...
Extrasolar means outta the solar system something beyond.
scintillate means emit flashes of light or sparkle.

one.

we hold on to dear life
to the thoughts we don't wan to lose.
we grasp on to our ideals
and our stubborn points of view.
we believe we are so deep
when all we see is superficial.
we feel as if we know ourselves
but is all we are, artificial?
we create who we are
from the fragments left behind.
from the thoughts of saints, prophets,
and holy men of all kind.
we forget that we are mortal,
only here for a little.
from birth we start to learn
to the time when we are brittle.
but of what we have learned,
how much do we know?
after all this time, we gained so much,
but did we really grow?
we focused on the differences
and that has left its scars.
but sometimes you need to **** the sun
in order to see the stars.
but do not fret my friends,
do not be perplexed!
because when we die,
and give all from inside,
we will always give life to the next.

- n.t.p.

we are one.

Poem: Pursuit of Holiness

The flesh lusts daily against the Spirit
and the Spirit wars contrary to the flesh.
The opposing tenets of grace and iniquity
can never with each other… completely mesh.

For the redeemed sinners operate by grace,
while the practitioners of unrighteousness
prefer the dark, ungodly ways of wickedness
and will not inherit the Kingdom’s fullness.

Fleshly works are clearly evident: adultery,
fornication, idolatry, sorcery, uncleanness,
contentions, jealousies, ****** immorality,
hatred, envy, revelries and evil-mindedness.

Fruits of the sinful flesh are plain to see
and spirits cringe- at their being mentioned.
Can we expect others to pursue God’s holiness,
when people are upset- from being questioned?

For we live under God’s grace and not His Law;
His righteous wrath will be eventually revealed.
Acceptance of His gift of Salvation can insure…
that our lives will have been redeemed and sealed!
