The True Walk of Life

"Son of sorrow staring down forever with an aching view"

~The True Walk of Life~

Suffering, woes, hurt, longing, devastation.

The cries of a generation beating down their own lives into submission. 

Suffering, woes, hurt, love, devastation. 

The cries of the believer with pain located in his stripes.

America listens to a prosperity Gospel. 

A Gospel that says God is never going to let me suffer.

A Gospel of entitlement, where we think He only gives us what is extravagant.

A Gospel of me, me, me, and not God, God, God.

This life should be a road of work. 

This America sits down and asks and does nothing.

This America looks at God as their personal financial hand me out. 

This America is a place where God is no longer God.

How can joy come if we sit on our chairs and do nothing. 

How can we understand joy without suffering, and die every day. 

God is love and it is the love from the Son of Sorrow.

God is the path that is filled with trial, work, and ultimately reward.

Easy does not value you or me. 

I want to work for my value.

I want to learn how to suffer through God's example. 

I want to understand God's love by working, walking, doing
 And not by doing nothing, where I wait without trying to search, love, and work.

He bled, He died, He suffered.

He is the example of how I wish to live my life. 

He bled, He died, He suffered.

He is the way, the truth, my life.

How we deal with our suffering shows the world the love of Christ. 

How we love in spite of suffering shows the world what God truly is.

Sitting down and doing nothing is the bane of our society. 

Stand up, work, suffer, love, and show what life is really there for. 

To be like God we must suffer, and show His light to those that are in your world. 

We are believers that live in his scars.

Now let us emulate those scars for the good of true, unconditional love.

To Understand All Can Be Young

"The sun also rises, on those who fail to call my life, it comprises, of losses and wins and fails and falls."                                        

                                                                                                 ~Lana Del Rey

~To Understand All Can Be Young~




The feelings of the unknown overtakes the soul.
It understands all understanding.
The feeling only known to a few,
The feeling that helps to destroy the doubt's in their minds.

To be a young man to feel the thoughts in my head.
To be a mere man to look into the heart I think I know.
I may be young but I've learned a lot.
I may be young but my eyes still see.

The feelings of a few can change the heart of many.
It understands the factors of understanding.
The feelings mean nothing if not done with love.
Love that helps it be more than a feeling to be more defined in hope.

I think life has a purpose and a meaning to it all.
I believe my world without love is a world not worth living.
I may be young but I've learned so much.
I may be young but my heart has love.
The unknown is undefined and it overtakes my soul.
I hope to one day understand at least one thing.
Maybe today will be the day?

Like No Other

Our Father in heaven, 

hallowed be your name. 

Your kingdom come, 

your will be done, 

on earth, as it is in heaven 

.
Give us this day our daily bread, 

and forgive us our debts, 

as we also have forgiven our debtors. 

And lead us not into temptation, 

but deliver us from evil.

~Like No Other~

The Lord is like no other. 

He is the beginning and the end.

He is the one who holds my life in his hands. 

He wraps me up in his arms and gives me life even though I am unworthy.

My God is like no other. 

He is the alpha and omega.

He is the man who died for you and he died for me. 

He saves sins and washes away my tears for better days and a better life.

I have mud in my eyes and cannot see.

I am crippled and cannot walk. 

But God cures my blindness 

And tells me to pick up my mat and walk.

He is worthy of everything all at once.

He is worthy of praise.

We may not be perfect but his blood washes us clean.

The ocean of God washes over me and I am free.

He died for you and he died for me. 

He was tortured so that we may have breath. 

He took on death so that I would not need to. 

He bore my pain so that I can be saved.

For my Creator is like no other.

He is preparing a place for me. 

He is my father, my dad, my big man. 

He takes me where I am

He takes me and shapes me into a man I would be glad to be.

All I need is love. 

All I need to do is listen, believe, and love God first.

I must love others by his example for he is the one who was there before our world began. 

For my Lord, God, Creator is like no other. 

And he saves me and he saves you, he is my father, my forever, Amen

Define Who I Am

"They tell you where you need to go
They tell you when you'll need to leave
They tell you what you need to know
They tell you who you need to be

But everything inside you knows
There's more than what you've heard
There's so much more than empty conversations
Filled with empty words"
                                                             ~Switchfoot

~Define Who I Am~

People try to tell you who you are,

But you need to define yourself.

People try to tell you who you are,

But you need God to define you.

Dedicate yourself to the principle of not pleasing everybody.

Dedicate yourself to who you are. 

Dedicate yourself to the principle of being what defines you.

Dedicate yourself to who you are.

Two sides to please.

You please one the other is not satisfied.

Two sides to please. 

 No one will ever be satisfied.

People try to define who you are. 

But there is only one who can truly define you. 

Only one to please. 

Only one to satisfy.

Come into my life and define who I am.

Come and breathe life into my shriveled lungs.

Come and let the ocean waves wash over me.

Come into my life and mend my fractured heart.

There are others who can walk with you.

There are others who can help you and you them.

God defines and places more into our lives.

Be your own side with your like minded friends.

Together forever beginning with a cry.

Together forever helping one another.

Together forever swimming in the saltwater.

Together forever mistakes and all.

People try to tell you who you are.

But you need to define yourself.

People try to tell you who you are. 

But you need God too define you.
