Until Then

Photo by GEORGE DESIPRIS on Pexels.com
Inconsistent,
Afraid of yet only unseen possibilities,
Hand over heart
Terrified of my part
How will I stand?

Wavering?
Detoured from asking myself the question,
Hiding in case
I should see His face,
Hear Him asking me.

Ashamed.
Putting pen to paper to communicate
The question hanging,
Enough  it has me crying,
For only You know.

Begging,
Because I know of the sins between us
For You will I stand?
Hold up head and hand?
Or will I fold?

Time marches.
The world grows crueler, harder
The end is visible
Man destroys made divisible,
You Lord are returning.

Rapture.
Until then Lord, strengthen me
When the question
Comes in a moment of great desperation,
Jesus or Satan.

Let it be,
Only Jesus,
Only Christ,
Only the Holy Father
Holy Spirit speak through me, "Jesus".

As 2014 Ticks Away

The clock will tick
The ball will drop
The kiss be shared
The balloons go “pop”.
The minute will pass
The time will go
The calendar flip
The noise will flow.
The year will change
The party will end
The heart will beat
The pass foe & friend.

Though troubles arrive
Though joys overflow
Though sadness depart
Though winds will blow.
Though Christ will return
Though the day unknown
Though the rapture occur
Though the war be won.
Though peace will reign
Though with Christ eternally
Though you may have time
Though it will happen eventually.

image
The day will come
The Lord will appear
The time unknown
The moment so dear.
The eyes will lift
The sight in the East
The rapture will occur
The final end the Beast.
The knees will bow
The tongues confess
The God in Trinity
He is the One we bless.
