Run Out of Things You Want

I want to write a poem about getting what you want
Do you believe you will get what you want
- what you really want?
God will help you get what you want
He would just grant it to you one day
Out of the blue
You would be so surprised
elated, and don't know what to do
Because you had waited so long
And almost did not believe that it actually happens
You then feel relieved that you finally got what you wanted
Why does God do that?
Why does He wait until you forgot all about it
And gave it to you when you least suspect it?
Who knows? 
He does things nobody knows
But know this
He did not forget about you
your wishes
He just does it when He feels like it
No rhymes or reasons
He just does it
So just go on
Forget all about it
But He doesn't forget haha
And you would then say "what do I do now?
What can I ask for now?" lol
I ran out of things that I want
Isn't that a great dilemma?
Lol haha you will get there
Don't forget, okay?

He Is With Us Now, Tomorrow, and Always

Take special care of your heart, mind, and body temple
Love all and have all
Be the best and believe in the best
Accumulate learning, trades, skills
Be knowledgeable of all things
Don’t stop giving and sowing
Life is a harvest of things planted
Live today, plan for tomorrow
Be courageous, adventurous, industrious
Awesomeness, bigheartedness, distinctiveness
Live like how He would want you to live
Think of others less of you
Take care 
God loves us
He will never forsake us
Abandon us, throw us to the wicked one
He is there 
For us now 
And tomorrow 
And always

God Rules

He will make everything fabulous
Wait and see
He has a way of doing things
He knows what needs to be done first
And every step thereafter
He knows how to do things
Plan things and make things to come
We don’t even have to worry about the details of it
He is in control
Every minute second
He is on top of it
Don’t sweat, hyperventilate, exasperate
Irritate, gripe, aggravate
The Maker of this world is presiding
In charge
Why agonize, discompose, fret, nervous
While the Father has of hold on his making
God meant for us to enjoy things
Life and everything goes with it
Don’t be a grouch, a wreck, a grumbler
A troublemaker, a moaner, a nitpicker
God meant for you to be happy
Live life, sing a song, dance a storm
Make someone happy
Make yourself happy
Take delight in what you do
Take pleasure in what you accomplished
Be pleased
Get a kick out of things not called for, earned
Have a ball
Have fun
Live a little
God rules

What Easter Meant For Us

I want to write a poem about Easter for you Lord
Easter is a special Day
A day that you had died for us and were raised from the dead
A day when one’s sins are forgiven once they believe in You
And accept You as their Savior
A day where one becomes new as you raised from the dead
So he or she is raised from the spiritual death
A day to celebrate Life –the Eternal Life
Your Life, our Life
Life is possible only after you obeyed and followed your Father’s  will
Life is possible only after you endured the pain and gave up your life
It’s because of You that we now can be with you and have Life - eternal
The sacrificial Lamb
Because of You Jesus, our sins are forgiven and we are perfect in God’s eyes
Because of You, we can enjoy the life here now on earth and then will too in Heaven
We are new creations –our old ones are gone
We are free
No longer bound to sins and death
Because of You, nothing can touch us
We are separated by the Blood of the King
Because of You, we received our healing in advance
You paid with your life for us at Calvary
God did not forsake You
Just like He did not forsake us 
And sent You to take our place
Thank you Jesus for what you’ve done
Died in our place – You who have no sins
Became sins for us
Jesus, that is what Easter meant for us
Indebted to you Lord
Forever our Rescuer, Redeemer, Deliverer
Savior
Forever Our greatest King

Does Poetry Soup Live

Why is Soup alive and well?
Was it dead?
Or is it dead?
Then don't say it's alive and well
When you say it's alive and well
You meant it's not dead
Well it's not dead
Then don't say it is alive and well
Unless it's dead
Then you can say "it's alive and well"
It's my take on it
You can say "it's alive and kicking"
But who is kicking?
You?
I am not
Because I am hitting the town
Living about
And I'm definitely not kicking
Unless I kick you
For saying that
"It's alive and living"
Then say "live"
Poetry lives

In You

In you l believe
In you I hope
In you I live
In you I trust
In you I will be who you want me to be 
In you I will care, love, touch, feel, see
In you I will be the best I can be
In you I will do what You want
In you I will conquer
In you I will know what needs to be done
In you l will wait 
Lord in You

Love On High

What you see right now is not what I want for you
It is not the final version
Give yourself rest
Know what I want for you is unequal
Love in you loves all
Live 
Love in understanding
Love in amazement
Love in knowing
On high
Love 
Lord

Okay- Do You Get It

Okay what do you want to hear?
Do you want to hear flashy words
Or words that speak to you from bottom of my heart?
Sometimes you just have to go with what you feel like doing
Whether to call one on the phone
Or write them a little note
Little things you do speak volume
It strengthens your bond
And shows them that you care
You don’t have to do a lot of things
Just being there is enough
Sometimes words aren’t necessary
I can tell how you feel just by looking at you
And sometimes you need words
For reassurance
For telling them that they mean the world to you
Whatever
I am not going to tell you 
What to do
As I think you already know
So just do it
And don’t let inhibition stops you
It ain’t kill you
But it makes you lose out on a lot of fun
So be crazy 
And daring would you?
What do you have to lose
But you silly face
Ahh you get a new one anyway
What?  You don’t believe me?

No Lemonade

Lord
I am bored
Nothing you handed to me
Is what I want
Lord
It’s a waste of my time
Why do you keep wasting my time God?
I am tired of investing my energy 
In something so silly
So not what I wanted
God do you believe in being productive?
I feel like I am wasting my time
Why do you keep handing a lemon 
When I am asking You for an orange?
Forget it
You won’t be seeing me making lemonade 
Any more
It will go in the trash
