The mystery of divinity who can understand,
knowing there is no searching of his understanding.
The understanding of divinity who can comprehend,
knowing his thoughts are beyond human imaginations.
The knowledge of divinity who can tell,
knowing his ways are past finding out.

His ways comprehended by human reasoning;
He is the

I AM THAT I AM.

Oft times, your ways are hard Lord,
but they are just   and fair;
you help in times of troubles,
to show us that   you care.

Some only see the sorrow,
some only see the pain;
but those that know your truth,
have everything to gain.

We sometimes do not understand,
the way you show your plan;
but a sunrise and a sunset,
is one creation...Grand!

We suffer in your name Lord,
from human persecutions;
from skeptics and from fools,
under false delusions.

We must be overcomers,
to run the race and win;
tethered to your word,
we overcome our sin.
Eddie Starr Feb 2014
Christ has transform us into living Miracles.
All of the things that we have gone through.
To come out stronger, not being destroyed.
For many people have been destroyed by less.
Destroying themselves instead of persevering.
Which is what Christ has called us to do trust him.
Not give up on this life become overcomers here.
To not allow the evil one to deceive you into destruction.
But to stand firm and fast, to become overcomers in life.

God is building up his people
A holy nation, a royal priesthood
A people chosen by God
To do his mighty will on earth

Jesus is interceding
for his precious little flock
He's loving us, and leading us
On the path that we should take

The holy spirit is drawing us
Before the throne of grace
To feel Gods love and mercy
To strengthen us for the fight

We are a mighty army
with the trinity by our side
We are called victorious
By the testimony of our mouths

We are the overcomers
No longer living in fear
We will stand against the foe
And our faith will be our shield
let us love being being built up in Him and through others

A message to the world from some thoughts I caugt tempting me to dare say this is that aloud. If gay and may are mine to use, as I wish with no nevermind to otherwise. My side did win. I helped, that feels amazing, un-mazing in the local mind.
Suffering builds character  while Love heals your mind.
Something that with Age that I realize that right now.
That when you are struggling, life seems harder then.
Each trial or struggle seems to be getting worst then the last.
But in the very end of the schemes of Life right here now.
The hardships only make each of us a stronger person here.
Thus helping us to become  Overcomers through Christ.
So when you do seem overwhelm here go a head and cry.
Then pray for his Strength within you to help build you up.

I will continue to compose every day,
and let the inner man say whatever.
I will let the darkroom of my mind
shine and showcase my products.
I will continue to inspire and captivate
the young, old and eager minds alike.
Deep down within me is a voice crying,
and craving for a space in the minds
of those with faded dreams and broken hearts.
I will continue to give wings to words
and fly them beyond their hopes and dreams.
See how I flip words and juggle thoughts,
I am the gladiator, see how I swing my pen,
I was commissioned to resurrect dead words
and I'll continue on this creative journey
until the lord of words takes away my last breath.

I will share whenever I can, however I can,
and whatever I want and share my thoughts.
I will continue to let my poetic ink leak
on different colors of papers or in digital form.
Call me the dark Vader of ghetto poetry,
Some think I'm the last link between
the overcomers of poverty and victims of politics.
I will let the poet in me let out decibels of screams,
I will mold minds and rekindle faded dreams
via the richness and depths of my poetry.
I wish to write poetry that is enchantingly lovely
and spit spoken words sharper than a Samurai's sword.

I will continue to head the renaissance of poetry.
I have the compulsion to write and share
all that I've received from the universe in my verses,
just look at my lines, see the iambic meters.
Too Many great minds once walked this earth,
too many dead legends died without a chance
to showcase their God-given talents and gifts
All because they had no access to FB
or other platforms on which to share their thoughts.
The graveyard is the richest place on earth.
They say it has too many unrefined talents,
too many unrealized dreams, unspoken words,
too many unexplored visions and unwritten lines,
too many unheard voices and unexpressed thoughts.

.....I will
