{JJ&M} journaling series: Take a Chance

 
{entries are edited to protect names & identities}

Will you take a chance?

I don't want my last breath to be, "Please God, have mercy on me. I'm so sorry for not putting you first and not allowing you to work on me."
I would rather say "Thank you Jesus for my righteous and prosperous life. Thank you for my loved ones and most of all Father, thank you for working in my life. I'm coming home." What are you gonna say?
You can gamble with your life but don't gamble with your soul. 
This isn't fake. When people receive the Holy Ghost, it's not fake. When I feel His presence and it changes me, that's not fake. When I open the Book and read the word, what is revealed to me is not fake. And even if it is, if this is all a mistake, it still can't be as fake as what's in the world already!

So if I'm a faker, well at least I have morals, dignity and lived as a respectful lady. At least I lived with respect and love. Not many people can say that, even some in this church, I'm sure. But you know what?
I can't lie to myself. I can't leave this church and deny all that has happened, writing it off as some conspiracy. I can't lie to myself and say I haven't changed since coming here.

If you say you're a Christian but have not seen any changes in your life, then you are not a Christian. We are going to always grow because He is always molding us into the final product He wants us to be.

I can't lie to myself and take that chance.
Would you? Better yet...are you?

{JJ&M} journaling series: Thoughts in Poems, Part 2

My Prayer
Since I don't know what to do,
I leave it up to you
Majesty of faith,
What is my fate?
It must be a good thing,
Look at all the joy you bring
Who am I or who will I be?
Majesty of charity,
I feel you near me
Can you open my eyes to see?
Restart my heart to breathe?
Suffocating for a world that turned it's back,
I keep spinning & losing where I'm at
Majesty of eternity,
Can you please stop me?
Before I hurt someone I love,
Before I lose myself...

Point Blank Range
 Pointed like a knife,
Sharp and right
Who turned off the light?
Tossing during the quiet night,
Uneasy is blessed with a guilty conscience
Deep in the chest of the innocent
Point blank range,
Corrupt and deranged
Need to start a new page, but their all full
Like a sheep with no wool
Out of the water, I guess I'm a fish
That doesn't mean I can't still wish
Curled up in a ball of love,
Praying to the One above
Feeling the familiarity
Notice the insecurity
Stab it in the center,
Then everything will
be better...

Naive
The power of persuasion,
Leave no room for compensation
It's a lose, lose situation
Feel the vibration,
Of the influential drums
Go with it,
Until you've become numb...

Spirit Parade
A wave
A spirit parade
Peace be with you
Inside the flesh grave
The wind blows
Slow, at first
Now feel the burst
Tears stream like a stream
Down the seam of an eye
Hold onto the night
As the warmth swarms up the arms,
and into the heart
He presents His presence
and it has yet to part...
