Think about
who, what, when
a society
more foolish than
and here you sit
surrounded by
weakness, sheep
why, why, why?
but within
this grand design
there is power
yours and mine
it doesn’t take
a queen to move
a peasant girl
motivation prove
can make a giant
awesome change
so much is broken
we must rearrange
I charge you all
it’s time to go
to do some work
it’s time to show
you’re beautiful
you’re bold
you’re strong
behold
this is time
a new covenant
with us and who
God has sent
it’s time to
clean it up
this mess
while we’re looking up
still waiting
for you in the clouds
we are calling
among sinful crowds
still faithful
still focused
still denying
hocus pocus
earthly remedies
only last a second
but you and your healing
erase Armageddon
you promise
we will be taken
outta here
before the shaken
of the devil
and his fear
your promises
are written down in love
and so I keep my eyes
directed up above
perhaps for a moment
such as this
or a reward discovered
you didn’t miss
you kept pushing
through the crowd
you didn’t listen
when she denied so loud
you started working
in the field
and reaped reward
your faith revealed
that even for a peasant
God is good
and obedience reaps
success we should
take some advice
from God’s great Word
His voice is alive
wisdom not deferred
you don’t need a title
you don’t need a cause
you don’t need solutions
you just need my God
You don’t need a focus
you don’t need a face
you don’t need a reason
you just need to erase
all of the you within it
all that you think you are
all that holds you back
from being his shining star
the second you inject me in it
you erase his will his way
and that is just denying
the power within that day
the second we stop inserting
what we want in life
and concentrate on Jesus
erased is fear and strife
cause no matter the situation
God is great, you hear?
on the top or in the valley
we must always revere
were we there
when the globe was made round?
when the land created?
when the sea came rushing down
where we there to see
the stars hung in the sky
the vastness of the universe?
each planet perfect passing by?
were we there
when the dinosaur took it’s first step?
when the whales of the deep
rushed and jumped, did we forget?
were we there?
did we help, assist?
did he need us?
wait for this…
yes,
in spite of the majesty
he spoke a word
we came to be
and here I sit
upon this chair
typing words
in the air
and you can read
my spirit
my heart
it’s time to work
a fresh new start
there’s much to do
we must start cleaning
we must arrange
within God’s meaning
with God first
listen to Him
focus on Jesus
each day begin
use me Father
Use me today
Use me for good
That’s what I pray.
The rhyme may be off time, but those words came out like that today and it is not for me to change them. God is good all the time, and all the time – GOD IS GOOD!
There is so much to do. There are “Help Wanted” signs everywhere I look. We MUST start working. There are so many people to help. Let’s get to work America. They are looking for help, we have Jesus, let’s bring them Jesus.
I went to Costco for the first time since I found out they cancelled my membership. I approached the manager and asked this question. Is there any kind of program this company has to help the community? What if I told you a friend of mine – Marine retired and wife a special ed teacher – had their generator stolen out of their truck the other night. Is there anything you can do to help them out? I am pretty sure you sell generators.
The response was, you have to ask corporate, they are in San Diego. You fill out a form online.
Nope, that’s not what I’m asking. I want our local store to help. I want you guys – the ones who were able to be open every single day while small family run businesses WERE REQUIRED to close – Now I am asking for our local store to HELP the local community. The individuals. The people who deserve it. I don’t want to speak to the corporate office.
I spoke with 2 women, very well spoken, very powerful. One was a manager and one was a woman who worked in the membership department. Both spoke with powerful faces but with weak words. I am the lowest of the totem pole – was the response of the woman at the membership counter.
My response to her was this – isn’t that why you should then? Aren’t you the most powerful to ask? Maybe this idea is what you need to level up and rise to the occasion. Be the voice for the people. Remind corporate where and how America was formed. It was the workers that fought back. Not the elite, not the aristocracy. The laymen, the people that change mattered to.
Like Ruth – she did not back down when told to go back to her people, to a Godless nation. She did not back down when she saw people working in a field not belonging to her, with strangers. She did not back down when she was introduced to the owner of the field, a powerful man. In that culture, women were the lowest of the low. She did not back down. She loved the Lord. She obeyed HIM and HIM alone. She followed her faith not her fear. How powerful is that?
Why don’t we ask? Why don’t we sound our voices like we are following Joshua and break down the walls of Jericho. There is so much opportunity to make a change right now, and it’s while the pieces are all broken, not later, when they have all been put back in the wrong and sinful spots. We must dive in now. We have the opportunity to make a difference. We need to start working folks, they are suffering and they NEED US. Sound the Lord’s Trumpet.
Infultrate. Make demands. Make a change. Ask for MORE. BUT work harder than you have ever worked before. Throw your shoulders back and work your way up the ladder. Express the Love of Jesus inside you. Express the value of what hard work produces and do it with your eyes never wavering from JESUS. Take yourself out of the equation, when you do, you have NO limits. Does Jesus have a limit? We can witness now more than ever before. Your voice is so powerful, keep Jesus on your lips. He wants to be heard.
Will you follow your faith or your fear?
I am reading this awesome devotional. This whole series is amazing, I recommend it.

Both Esther and Ruth were beautiful. Don’t ever let society make you feel like beautiful isn’t special. God designed each person special with power in places only He has the wisdom to know. IF you are beautiful than give it to Jesus. Don’t be ashamed. Be thankful to God for it. It’s not yours, it’s His and you have to take care of all the gifts. Your beauty can open doors that are closed to others like for Esther and Ruth. Use righteously and humbly what you were given to GLORIFY God.
I love you. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
