Joseph J. Breunig 3rd's Blog – May 2009 Archive (12)

Poem: Heavenly Invitation

Written down is God's Word;

we are encouraged to be heavenly, joint heirs.

So examine His Word for Truth's proof,

for His wish is that 'we join Him there'.

Jehovah first gave of Himself,

breathing Life into Man's creation.

Now He is waiting patiently...

And anticipating a grand celebration.

Final merging of the family tree

are earthly souls and angelic beings;

hear the chorus of praise resound

from all of us eternally… Continue

Poem: Sunday Soldier

At the end of yet another week,

weary soldiers are huddled behind church doors,

reminiscing about the recent past with outlook bleak -

Not knowing that Life can offer so much more.

Military plans for Earth's invasion

are held by the Kingdom priests,

trying to comprehend the message of scriptural persuasion

for bringing captive lives to Godly release.

Between berating and war counsel cries,

there are mixed signals being… Continue

Poem: Lasting Hope (sequel to New Age Spirituality)

Satan is a defeated foe

although he continues to fight -

For we are more than conquerors,

as soldiers in God's army of Light.

His earthly authority has been weakened

since Christ now possesses the keys of Death and Hell;

so we're to prayerfully "stand in the gap"

as we in His Presence strive to dwell.

Our lasting Hope is embodied by Christ alone;

He died to prove His Love as a friend.

Willingly and sacrificially He laid down His… Continue

Poem: Morning Star

Lord, You are the only Morning Star.
Nothing else compares to your brilliance,
a penetrating light that pierces...

...the darkness of our hearts
...the blackness of our sins
...the abyss of our human emotion

Being the source of Dunamis power,
You shine an eternal beam of radiance.
For unlike other stars, You'll never burn out.

Poem: Higher Ground

On God's holy mountain

I traverse a spiral path

of an upward climb

towards His higher ground.

My progress varies between

arduously slow and immoderately fast,

while trying to avoid same mistakes

that keep me in a circle going round.

Rockslides are temporary obstacles

that can only impede, but...

Never prevent me from reaching the peak

where one day, I'll be found.

Poem: No Earthly Good

Being so heavenly minded

and of no earthly good

is a dichotomy of attitude to avoid,

as one must and should.

Solutions to Life's problems

become evident with clear thinking,

when grounded on divine principles

for the purpose of practical living.

The Standard has been defined

for all Kingdom residents -

Walk in abundance, be a blessing to others

as shown by Christ's precedent.

By making a positive impact

and… Continue

Poem: Petitions to God

God does answer prayer

as many people have heard,

but His only obligation is

to honor His own Word.

He is always around

for requests of Salvation's Call;

His desire is to assist all lives

that have spiritually stalled.

He willingly meets our needs

and not necessarily our wants;

for asking in ignorance

doesn't sanction unmerited warrants.

Read and devour His Word;

hide His Principles in your heart,

so that… Continue

Poem: Computer Geek

After twenty years, as cursed as I may be

for having learned computerese,

I continue to examine bits, bytes and words

and insure that I'm one of those computer nerds.

Program design, source code and compile

followed by walk-throughs that place me on trial.

There's lots of testing - a means to an end

in hopes of avoiding future production abends.

There are micros, minis and mainframe hardware

which are made to work with in-house and vendor… Continue

Poem: Chained to Myself

To Nature's old self I cling,

although I should be a new creation

and enjoy the blessings that it brings.

I'm bound as a passive prisoner

wholly contained within my soul,

while personal chains constrict even tighter.

Jacob Marley would have been proud,

as I've forged my own binding links

that strangle the life force, which is continually cast down.

The freedom that I crave

won't be obtained by my own strength,

for only the… Continue

Poem: Losing Myself

Cuddling with my beloved

under the warmth of satin sheets,

I gently sense the merging of souls

as our bodies become one flesh.

Fingertip sensations reflect the excitement

that are already stirred within my spirit.

During these sweet times of intimacy,

I'm losing myself as a fading light

in the ultimate desire of Love,

as the moments are embedded

softly into our memories.

Poem: Lot's Wife

Not wanting to be rescued

from the twin, sin cities,

she's unwillingly led away

by a man she barely loves and pities.

Unable to follow God's direction

and her husband's leadership,

she succumbs to her heart's lust

for a final look, as the horizon dips.

Governed by Jezebel's spirit,

having forgotten that Jehovah honors His Word,

she's transformed into a pillar of salt

for a life no longer preserved.

Fighting tears from… Continue

Poem: Chronic Indecision

Going my own selfish way,

based on the ignorance

of my false understanding,

leads directly to my downfall.

For chronic indecision

counteracts God's divine help,

as I traverse the narrow path -

Walking boldly and tall.

My Salvation is not achieved

by what I do or go through -

For I'm mindful of His Guidance

to accomplish a role that is small.

I desire to live a life of Faith

that is visible for any to see;

as… Continue
