When Pain is You.
Tami Binger Apr 2015
When pain hits
When its aim is you
Aiming to knock the wind out of you
Trying to devour you

me

When the hand of betrayal suffocates you

me

When you cant scream
Trying to hold your composure
When you cant cry, cause crying would be too weak
And all the strength you thought you had is fleeting

Your heart grows weary
Fluttering, gasping...
Beep beeping...
When pain is you
Me.
Tami Binger Dec 2013
Its the season to be jolly
Its a feeling in the air
The desire to give, to spend, to share
To eat - drink and be Merry.

You call it, I call it , we call it the “Spirit of Christmas”
But what is this christmas spirit?

Where is the ‘holy’ in the spirit of christmas?
I ponder, I question
Where is the christ in Christmas?
Where is the real Christ in Christmas?
Do you know?

Someone once told me
Its the precious gift from Heaven
Given many years ago, She said;
Long time ago in the Bethlehem so the Holy Bible say
….Something about ‘christmas day’
So I ponder where is the ‘Real Christ’ in this Christmas day

Oh! someone’s gonna be upset!
Its a pagan tradition that the church adopted!
I pose this question, did you adopt it
to celebrate it, the way the pagans do?!
Did you?

I hear an objection
I see it on your faces...
You say its the celebration of the birth of our King
Should the celebration be subjected to just one day,
one month?

I don't want to stay too long
But, its just that I have some much to say
Jesus the son of God
was birthed, to live, die
for You and I.


Do we only reflect on his death on easter day?
So why should his birth be any other way?!
I pose this to you…
If it had not been for his birth.
would there have been the shedding of the blood?
He was given freely, but with cause
For God so loved the world that He gave
El dio, ll a donne, He gave, He gifted his only son

So where is the Real Christ in Christmas?

Its not the tree, the pepper lights
Its not what you can buy
Thats is not what Christmas is OR should be for us
No! it not, what you can get, its not even what you can give


Its the reflection, homage to the birth of our King
I have stated my points
I have a final suggestion
Look within and ask one question
What does Christ in Christmas mean to you?

Worship
Tami Binger Oct 2013
Look within and realize why we’re living.
We are children of the kingdom
We live to worship our King

Worship not our spouse, the car nor the house
Worship not intellectually
Worship spiritually
Worship His divinity

If we were of the world, the world would love its own
But because we are not of the world,
We worship He who sits on the Throne.

We worship Him because His ways are just and good
Because He alone is Majestic. Holy and truly WONDERFUL
See, we are children of the Kingdom
Saved by Amazing Grace
So we worship in spirit and in truth
The author and finisher of our faith

No!
You just don’t understand
I am not a traitor
That is not my intention
I don’t regard myself as being a colour hater
My intentions are good
I only desire to stand out
Not to blend in.

No!
You just don’t understand
They don’t want a filthy raven
But a holy dove
Don’t tell me I’m foolish
For hungering after a look of a few
There are thousands of black masses
But only a few of you

Please just listen
I am uncomfortable, I am tormented
My soul is itchin’ beneath my skin.
Release me from this pain I’m in
No!!
You!
Just!
Don’t!
Understand!!

I do not despise the Race
Just the colour of my Face
In essence my decision will not change

And now before has become after
My face has pealed, 2 months since healed
The attention I once craved, I now wish will go away
Behind my back, I only hear snickers
Sadly this time, my fate I cannot change
So after all, I guess you were right
It was I who didn’t understand

S.I.N
Tami Binger Sep 2013
I am here to set up factions that causes separation
I have no regards for your occupation
Pastor or a member of the congregation

I have no respect for time or place,
I am the only one who can separate you from the one above
You may not think so

But I am

The root that causes the other reasons, to let it seem that there are more than one reason.
Well for this reason, I have all the power to use my own reason,
To cause mankind to reason, to reason their own ways and formulate their own beliefs and desires
To use that same reason to teach their offspring’s of more ungrateful acts.

I am just one word, with three letters
Yes, I am that small but yet so BIG
I am Anti –God, I am Anti Christian,
And don’t get me wrong, I am not just against Christians
Because I ****** your babies, 5 years and under
I **** your precious little ****** daughters
I sadomize your cute boys

As I said before I don’t care who or what you are
No matter how long you live,
(Trust Me) I am never far

To some I come sudden, to others, I roll smooth, slick subtle.
To some I am F.U.N, pure pleasure
I am in your music, your movies
I am in your heart, all of it.

I am what I am.

I am disobedience
The retrospect of disrespect
I must complete my mission till your last breath,
Until my death
Til there is nothing left.

Who Am I?
I am S.I.N.

Many Members One Body

We have a charge
Sow the seed
Our Aim? That they may believe.

We can’t all do the same thing,
Because we don't all have the same gifts
You- Heal the sick
You- Speak the word
You- Interpret
So that when They--->
Hear and See
They may believe
Cause u see, we are many members, of ONE Family.

We have a charge
Sow the seed
Our Aim? That they may believe
How will they believe, if we are divided
No we stand tall
We are united!

We can’t make them believe
If we behave like them
No! We should not conform to the patterns of this world.
The world says it’s all about you.
God's word says it’s all about them.
Your neighbors and your friends.

We have a charge
Sow the seed
Our? Aim that they may believe
How will they believe, if we are divided
No we stand tall
We are united!

Yes, we are different members
But, what makes us a Family?
I leave you with four letters...

Testimony
Tami Binger Sep 2013
You created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
You saw me as a Child of light when i was wrapped, consumed in darkness.
Evil was I when i left her, wicked and unscrupulous.
Yet you kept me, Yet you kept me.

Evil wouldn't leave me it took advantage of a helpless child.
Abused by the hate that is in this world.
Being told evil was good, and accepting the curses of that lie.
Confused, feeling hopeless, growing in a broken home.
Filled with fear, questioned time after time if You were there, Here…
Yet you kept me, Yet you kept me.

Consumed with greed, all i wanted was to be pleased.
Not loving myself, because i wanted to be someone else.
Refusing to see how wonderfully you made me.
I cursed, mocked.
Yet you kept me, Yet you kept me.

Lost and in despair, You called my name, I heard you, I didn't listen.
Parading to be an angel of light, walking the aisles of your sanctuary.
Having the form of godliness but denying its power to change me.
So eager was  I, to leave your presence craving for what the world had to offer.
Lusting for sin wanting to fill that gap that was deep within.
Yet you Kept me, Yet you Kept me.

I searched for love, for happiness.
The satisfaction was short lived,
became addictive I needed more, need just a little, needed alot.
Spiraling down, down, down Living with no real hope, totaling my emptiness.
Yet you kept me.

You reached out, you called me again, a clear voice repeating my name.
Telling me its time to change. Change from the way that is vain, vague.
Letting me know u called me to a higher purpose. a place of true love,
Where i can experience the fullness of Joy Happiness Peace.
Despite all I have done, your blood will wash me, make me whole.
Born again, dead to sin, Realizing all the wonders  I was truly missing.
Anew, Zealous in Christ, Salvation is so Sweet, Jesus he saved a Wretch like me.
He speaks, He guides, He rebukes All because He Loves me.
Me….Me?...Me.

O Lord yet when i stumble your grace is sufficient for me.
Though I am undeserving.
O lord you have Kept me… You are Keeping me.

O Lord yet when i stumble your grace is sufficient for me.
Though I am undeserving.
O lord you have Kept me… You are Keeping me.
Testimony.
