"jireh" poems
(Genesis, xxii.14)
The saints should never be dismay'd,
Nor sink in hopeless fear;
For when they least expect His aid,
The Saviour will appear.
This Abraham found: he raised the knife;
God saw, and said, "Forbear!
Yon ram shall yield his meaner life;
Behold the victim there."
Once David seem'd Saul's certain prey;
But hark! the foe's at hand;
Saul turns his arms another way,
To save the invaded land.
When Jonah sunk beneath the wave,
He thought to rise no more;
But God prepared a fish to save,
And bear him to the shore.
Blest proofs of power and grace divine,
That meet us in His word!
May every deep-felt care of mine
Be trusted with the Lord.
Wait for His seasonable aid,
And though it tarry, wait:
The promise may be long delay'd,
But cannot come too late.

Jehovah Jireh is more than just a name,
More than just a collection of letters,
More than a generous God who doles out gifts and things,
Jehovah Jireh is a place,
It is a place where we see emptiness,
But God sees opportunity
It is a place where God fills the gap in our lives.
God introduced himself to Abraham as Jehovah Jireh
As he was preparing to make the ultimate sacrifice - his son.
In the same way, God takes us to a place
Where we are willing to strip ourselves
of our most valued possession,
Then says,"Stop!
You don't have to do it, I just needed to know that you would. "
Then Jehovah Jireh provided a lamb
It wasn't just a lamb - something tangible
Something you hold, see, feel.
Jehovah Jireh provided a way
A way to get to closer
A way that was an acceptable sacrifice to reach the Almighty God.
Jehovah Jireh is a bridge,
The bridge to faith and trust
The bridge that takes us from the
place of
Uncertainty and doubt.
Jehovah Jireh
Our provider
Povides more than just things
He provides a place
A lamb,
A bridge
A way,
A way out of our distress
A way out of our confusion,
A way to Him
A way to live.

These words that I am speaking are not my own.
No, they come from the Heavenly Father seated on His Heavenly throne.
Hallowed be Your name, Father!
Hallowed be Your name.
Father, grace.
Father, spirit.
Father, power.
Father, peace.
This is what the Father says,
"Be still, child.
Be still.
You can feel the undertow tugging and pulling
not knowing
which way the
water will go and
there is a wave coming
a towering wave
a rushing wave
a crashing wave
a tidal wave but
do not be afraid.
The water's safe.
Come walk on it.
For this wave is not what it seems.
No,
this is a wave of blessing and people and provision coming your way
this is a wave of overcoming and
victory and answered prayers
this is a wave that will sweep you off your feet,
toss you around in its waters
leaving you breathless and gasping at My faithfulness and love everlasting
So you'd better be ready and brace yourselves,
this wave is coming.
Be ready.
Leave your doors wide open
and your doorstep clean for
I am sending you prodigal sons
the lost, the broken ones.
I am leading them back to Me.
For I am Love and this, this is love:
That I have loved and traded My kingdom for your sins
and My wealth for your filth.
Because I am Love and My love never runs out.
Be ready for the return of your
brothers and your sisters,
be ready with open doors and open arms,
be ready for a wave of those who need patching up.
Be ready for them.
Do you hear the rain?
Smell it.
Taste it.
Feel it.
Like the rain that pours without end, I will open the floodgates of heaven
and pour out so much blessing
your storehouses will overflow and
your hands won't be ready to catch the next one so
never worry about what you will eat
or drink
or wear
For I am Jehovah Jireh and
I am more
than enough.
Be ready for downpour.
Rise, youth.
Your time is now.
Don't tell Me you are too young
too inexperienced
too busy
or too scared.
I will take your weaknesses and make my strength perfect in them,
I will give you the wisdom and faith you need,
I will make you into the leaders I've called you to be.
Don't worry about what you will say to them,
for I will put the words in your mouth,
and the seeds in their hearts.
My plans never fail, child, so enough with the doubts,
enough with the fears,
your time is now.
Be ready for the youth.
A wave of breakthrough
is coming straight at you and
don't you for one second
cringe in fear.
Don't you be afraid of the wave coming,
Don't you whimper when I lead you
to walk upon deeper waters,
just
listen to my still, small voice, child, and
follow it.
Don't you for one second
let your faith falter
just trust in your Father and
you'd better get ready and
brace yourselves because
this wave is going to
blow
you
away."

Love, faith and forgiveness principal are in
Christian school. Torrid anger thou must flay
While it's still displaying on the eastern tray
Ere its set on the *** laude of thy sterling
Prize. The other meek cheek of thine turn--
Though tough--to him that seek thy burn.
Gladly go not one but twain miles with
Him that bid thee. Distribute cheerfully
To widows cream bread and wine; the needy
And orphans--whether you're rolling in it--
Never neglect, and make no open show
Of thy charity: its trumpet do not blow.
Make mammon thy master nay. Believe
The Bible though you cannot It fathom
Out--the Spirit thy heart will guide. Kingdom
Eternal chiefly pursue; to goodness cleave.
Both parents and priests honour, and men
In authority obey. Keep the Lord's pen.
Fast and pray, playing not to the gallery.
In heaven's safe thy treasure store, where
Robbers and rust have no access nor share.
For worldly wants, soul, never you worry--
Jehovah-Jireh above knows thy very need,
Who gives in season due to the sower seed.
Salt and light on earth be. Thy righteousness
The Pharisees' must exceed. All differences
Reconciled, lest thy balance draws offence
By heaven's audit. Loincloth of faithfulness
Wrap. At a lady be weary to leer, and thy
***** bridle. To God thy heart wholly tie.
The log in thine own eyes first remove
Afore thy brother's speck you see. Grudge
Not but ask, seek and knock. Don't judge.
Such measure from others expect to them give--
Golden rule. Strive to enter in at the narrow
Gate: the rough, rugged road to the end follow.

I Am
It is a name of infinite complexity
And just as infinite simplicity
A name filled with infinite passion
And infinite infinity
I am the alpha and the omega
The beginning and the end
Nothing starts or ends without my presence
No door I close may be opened
And no door I open may be shut
I spoke the first words into existence
And I hold the last word without resistance
I am God in Trinity
Adonai explicitly
Elohim eternally
I am Jehovah Nissi
As a pillar of fire
My light will lead you forward through the darkness
And if you rally behind me
Your life will never expire
For I am Jehovah Tsidkenu
And by my blood you have been made pure
By my sacrifice you have been saved
And by my grace your sin has been cured
For I am Jehovah Rafah
And I am Jehovah Jireh
I will clothe you in more splendor than the lilies
At my command the birds will bring you food and life will spring from your dry bones
And I will be the provision of a strength that surpasses Achilles
I am El Roi
I see the wanderings of your heart and the searchings of your soul
I have known your darkness and I have given you light and joy
I am Jehovah Shammah
I have walked with you and shown you my wonders
And I have carried you when the world beneath you shudders
I will be with you always
For I am past, present, and future
I am your savior, your messiah
I am your God
I Am

Poetry and Fine Arts
have always been
her best friend.
Everyday, she'd write
a poem or two and,
draw the visions
inside her mind.
At home, she's being
beleaguered with hurtful words
and goes to school late.
She jokes around
her friends while
they continue their
unfinished plates.
She loved mysteries
so much that
she became one.
Living with scars
and fears that
fills her mind
is what she had done.

A happy 18th birthday to Jireh Hong
Who I can proudly say is an amazing ching-chong.
She talks all four corners from food to Grande,
about her amazing voice, not the Starbucks sized latte.
Speaking of drinks, milk tea is her crave,
An hourly dose to satisfy her own rave.
Passing two tests, she is now a pro-status artist in UP,
Not to mention merging art and sport to move on stage gracefully.
The Year of Seven was our first encounter,
Memorable it was, I clearly remember.
During that year there was a game on my birthday
too bad we lost pretty bad, so she cried on that day.
Today, I remember the last thing she did,
She slapped me so hard that even Krisa hid.
From Seven until today there were plenty of memories.
Memories that turned Legendary from mere simple stories.
When I was in Rage Mode, and people wanted to hide,
you were of the few who were helping on the side.
Hashtag specific, this is really all I have to say.
Patiently praying, patiently waiting every single day.
Your height, your might, and your appetite,
They give me insane amounts of fright.
But FACT: It is your heart, that I can say with ease,
that is as big or bigger than any of these.
So for crying out loud, stop working out,
Ya don't need it, gimme the benefit of the doubt.
So go enjoy your music and milk tea
AKA Hang Out more (hehe) with friends and family.
You deserve it hundred percent all the way
So thank you, I wish you a happy birthday.

I am the child whom Jesus loves,
So undeserving and yet so graced.
Jesus the Lamb cried God our Father
As blood was spilled for sinning souls.
Oh, to gaze upon Him as Saviour, lover!
Praise Him from whom all blessings flow.
His shame for my salvation, His life for mine,
By grace I have been saved.
Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Once I was crossed but blessed tenfold
One hundred and twenty percent, I'm told
—One hundred twenty percent and more
****** slain lamb, my trespass offering
By blood I have been blessed.
Jehovah Jireh, Provider, Yahweh!
Forever and ever,
Amen and amen.

I have never
(and hopefully
never will be again)
Secretly in such deep
Love with someone
Piano, guitar, trumpet, drums, voice
Brilliant in his ability
To absorb knowledge
His mind a sponge
Consistently chill
Not easily riled
Persistently positive
And funny
When we met I was
An overweight, ******
Textbook closet case
Face in textbooks
Eating and smoking
To fill the void
I’d find any reason at all
To spend time with him
Tennis?
Sure!, Let’s go!
Dinner out?
Who’s driving?
Monty Hall Piano Room?
Let me spark this joint first.
What’s worse was that I
Loved (and still love and adore)
His then girlfriend
And so it was this strange
Situation where I loved
The couple, was secretly
Obsessed with the boy
And so jealous of the girl
But I was too ashamed and
Self-aware to be nasty to her
Because it wasn’t her fault
Shame so locked in my marrow
I couldn’t even project
The insecurity it created
Cristo and Lirah
Would go out for a romantic
Dinner and I’d feel
More alone in those moments
Than any other
So I’d smoke and do school work
Or walk through the woods with Nayla
Or go eat with Jireh
~~~
Side bar: So it turned out that
Jireh had a big ‘ol thing for me
I was so blind because
Of my behavioral asexuality
‘Locked in’ gayness
Love for Cristo
I may have led her on for like, years.
That’s ******
And John had a thing for Jireh
Weird love non-triangles
All over the ******* place
- - -
We drank so much
I remember drinking every day for
The last month of my junior year
In WC14
Movie night?
Word: White Russians
Pair well with Bladerunner
My shame was so strong that
Even when I was blacked out
(Or nearly blacked out)
I could still use a Treuschler
Bathroom to ****
Then stare at myself in the mirror
And be disgusted with my
Own reflection
“You love him.
You love Cristo.”
“You’re ******* gay, bro.”
“SAY IT. "
"TO ANYONE.”
. . .
******* coward.”
Shame slicing right
Through the shitfacedness
For self chastisement
- - -
I told him I was gay
At a club in Baltimore a few days
Before I left for Micronesia
He said: “Where are we going
for your send off?”
I said: “The Hippo.”
He said: “You know that’s a
gay bar, right?”
“Yeah, man. It’s cool.”
I told him after returning from
Peace Corps
That I’d been in love
With him in our college
Years
Cool, collected and responsive
As usual, he said:
“Thank you.”

Before my sin caused my suffering -
You built me a church;
Surrounded me with praying sisters
and gave me Your Word.
El Roi - mercy beyond mercy;
The goodness of my God.
Before madness engulfed me
You called me back to Your arms,
taught my heart a new rhythm
and my soul a new song.
El Shaddai - love beyond measure;
the goodness of my God.
Before I walked a step onto a ward,
You recycled my past;
Built with it understanding and hope,
turned darkness to light.
Jehovah Jireh - nothing is wasted with You;
the unfathomable goodness of my God.
For every pain - a comfort O Father.
For every joy - all thanks to Adonai.
I will follow You praising every day Jehovah Raah.
My every breath is for you Yahweh.

Oh, My Father,
We are blessed.
In Your Name there's
Holiness
Let all the Earth
Bow down, attest,
Beneath Your wings
We finally rest.
Oh, Jehovah,
Let us see
And do Your Will
Effectively
Let Your Kingdom
Finally be
Your Will is what
Will set us free!
Jehovah-jireh
You'll provide.
Let us put all fears aside.
You bring us bread,
Fish on the tide
In Your blessings
We reside!
Jehovah-Tsidkenu
Our righteousness
To forgive is such a test!
By Your forgiveness
We can bless
Others... with them
We won't wrest.
Jehovah-Nissi
Victory waves!
Let Satan leave!
He is depraved.
Let him not tempt us
To the grave!
For, in You, we may be
SAVED!
Yours is the power
Glory send,
And Your Kingdom
NEVER ENDS
We were in a
Deep, deep pit...
An endless journey
Hellbound trip!
Now our feet
Will never slip,
And with the armor
We're equipped!

Help me to find purpose
Help me to find afresh
Help me to find forgiveness
Help me to find faith
Help me to find inspiration
Help me to find art
Help me to find love
Help me to find You
Jehovah Jireh.

I have learned the secret of contentment
Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again
There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence
Forgive me for how often I forget
If you ask the lilies or the sparrows
If they doubt who watched over them
I bet they cry out without hesitation,
"Jireh comes through time and time again."
I have learned the secret of contentment
Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again
There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence
Forgive me for how often I forget
If you as the rocks why they are singing
Or why they rumble in a mighty roar
It's in the very fabric of their being
To lead us all in worshiping the Lord
I have learned the secret of contentment
Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again
There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence
Forgive me for how often I forget
If you as they mountains why they're moving
Why seas are calm and storm winds cease to blow
You need not look for greater, grander reason
Thank simply that their Maker told them so
I have learned the secret of contentment
Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again
There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence
Forgive me for how often I forget
How often I forget.
