Your Guiding Light Betty Hattersley
When I was lost on the path of life,
How heavy pressures caused me strife?
Once I saw I knew it right,
My lord I saw your guiding light:
This guiding light I seemed to know,
A certain path I had to go:
Your glow that shines so really bright
My lord I saw your guiding light:
To follow in the glow not stray,
Lord you've shown the perfect way:
Protecting me from trials and plight,
My lord I saw your guiding light:
Caressed by love this light does show,
Live your life for good and know:
Believe in him and life is bright,
My lord I saw your guiding light:
Leave the darkness right behind,
Peace of mind one day will find:
Feel your strength so full of might,
I have seen your guiding light:

The Valley Of Peace Noel R. Vallejos |
I have reached the valley of my dreams
Where peace and tranquility reign
And the powerful presence of the Almighty
Is greatly felt in every moment, where
Everyone living in accordance with His
Word savors His abundant graces and
Loving-kindness; where everyone is
Free from worries, constantly enjoying the
Father's loving, soothing and gentle caress.
I have reached this zenith of
Spiritual existence
After a long journey and arduous struggles
That saw my treks on the trails of the
Dark forest- the domain of the Serpent
And the Beast- where Everyone's singular
Quest is to satisfy the insatiable lust
For flesh, where everyone's wish
Is to quench the feverish desires
Of the senses. I had repeatedly,
Aggressively and blindingly
Indulged in various abominations that
Brought fleeting tingling to my senses and
Eventually rendered my soul decapitated.
Amidst the filth and meaninglessness that
Abound in the dark forest where everyone,
Blinded by lust, just wanders on without
Direction, my soul cried out and struggled to
Get away from it all and has decided to
Traverse the path toward the Valley of Peace.
In bended knees, I tearfully proclaimed my
Entreaties to the Lord to help me, strengthen Me,
And guide me toward His affectionate Embrace.
I felt an enormous strength that enveloped my
Soul, enabling me to dash along my way like a
Blazing arrow straight toward the valley where
I found comfort, meaning, and true happiness.
It was dawn when I reached the place, I was
Greeted by the early morning light that
Heralded a bright new day, a new beginning.
As time passed, the allure of the forest again
Beckoned, prompting me to make an approach.
I eventually found myself within the borders
Of the forest, immersing myself in its winding
And mysterious paths, totally forgetting or
Ignoring the past wounds and pains it brought
To me during my past sojourns to its
Treacherous passages. And then I was trapped
In a quagmire of filth that ended all sense of
Excitement; once again, pain and shame crept
Into my mind.I had only myself to blame for
My stupid and dastardly act of abandoning the
Righteous ways of the Valley and treading the
Path toward the dark forest- the enclave of
The fool and the wild.
Tears welled from my eyes; I begged the
Lord to forgive me and not to forsake me.
With my body lying on the earth, I beseeched
God to give me a chance and to grant me His
Mercy and to make me feel His love and power.
His response was instant; He gave me strength
That propped my body up and provided me
Vigor to move quickly and ultimately leave
The deceiving confines of the dark forest.
Now I am back in the Valley of Peace
With a stronger resolve to reject the lures
Of the forest. May the Lord sustain me all the
Days of my life that I may ultimately reach
The Kingdom, when the forest will forever be gone. |

Web Page Contest Pearl Watley Mitchell
Jesus was challenged by Satan one day
To a web page contest, a trophy to lay
We'll let the angels be the judge, he said
And when I win, oh boy, you'll be red.
Bring it on, Jesus said, I have no fear
For good wins over evil, no matter who's here.
Both sat at the screens with hope in heart
As Gabriel blew the whistle to start.
Satan downloaded graphics in a rush
Changed font three times, there was a hush.
He searched for fire and copied the flames
entered descriptions and all his names.
Links to cults and glossaries, earth and skies
including the seas, he claimed as his prize.
The angels held their breath, then sighed
As Jesus rolled frames aside, icons astride.
Love and truth, clouds and beings pictured there,
In Heaven so grand, so blessed, that land
Harps and wings and places so great, never late
For life there is eternity in-state, so great,
Then boom went the power, a surge was felt
A big electric shot to the computers was dealt
The screens went black, the color was gone
And there was no file to show what was done.
Satan jumped up and yelled with a scream
What is this? What do you mean?
This is a joke, A sick thing to do.
You had this planned, all of you.
And Jesus just sat there editing his page
While Satan walked and squawked and raged
And when Satan saw it, he yelled, jumped 'round
How is his work still there, that's too profound?
Satan ran to the Father and became so irked
How is it there, full and perfect, he raved
To which The Father answered patiently
Remember, Jesus Saves!

"Help Wanted" Sheila Center
You don't need an appointment,
Nor, a date of any kind.
No dressy clothes or non-ran hose,
These things HE does not mind
There is no work requirement,
Your hours, you pick your own,
And if you aren't available,
There's no need to use the phone.
There is but one requirement,
It's rather easy too,
You must have faith, believe in HIM,
And with your heart, be true.

Appointments Richard E. Funnell
During the course of living
many appointments we make.
Often the time and date
we change for convenience's sake.
When we should see the dentist
we promise to eat less sweet food.
When we should see the doctor
we may not be in the mood.
We make appointments with God
promising to church we will go.
But it is easier to stay at home
if it rains or the wind should blow.
There are two appointments
we cannot delay.
The first is physical death
to end our earthly stay.
The second appointment
is where our soul will forever be.
The Book of Life
is the real key.
But there is good news
that makes us rejoice.
God sent us Jesus
and gave us a choice.
Like taxes, physical death,
is going to happen one day.
But the choice is ours
where our soul will forever stay.
