"THE THIEF IN THE NIGHT": LIBERTY'S PR$CE

AS I WALKED THROUGH MY LIFE'S JOURNEY, UNKNOWINGLY OF MY PATH AT TIMES,
I AM NOT ALONE, SO MY DIRECTION IS NOT MY OWN IS THE THOUGHT I KEEP IN MY MIND.

AS I CEASE TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHERE MY PATH IS DESIGNED TO END, WHILE STRUGGLING TO CONQUER THE FIGHT,
OF ME KEEPING MY SANITY THAT I MAY BLESS THE LORD WILLFULLY; AND RESIST "THE THIEF IN THE NIGHT".

AS I STAND IN THE CENTER OF THE WINDS VIOLENT RAGE MY HEART SEEKS TO STAY STRONG,
GREETING THE MASTER FACE 2 FACE, HE STRENGTHENS ME INTERNALLY WITH HIS WHISPERS OF A NEW SONG.

AS HE HEIGHTENS MY FEET TO SAIL ON TOP OF THE WAVES, AND COMFORTS ME FAVORABLY ,
I AM NOT MOVED, AS I RELEASE MY SOULS EMOTIONS TO THE ONE WHO I TRUST TO GOVERN ME.

AS THE LIGHTENING FLASHES, AND THE BREAKERS DASH , THE THUNDER COMES DOWN AND MY SURROUNDINGS ARE TORE,
STILL I AM NOT MOVED, SO ACCUSATIONS, GOSSIP, SLANDER, AND CRUELTY CAN NO LONGER LOCATE ME ANYMORE.

TO FIND ME AND PENETRATE ME GOING AND COMING, AS I AM DETERMINED TO STAY FILLED WITH GOODNESS AND LIGHT,
AND KEEP MY SANITY, THAT I MAY BLESS THE LORD AT ALL TIMES AND RESIST "THE THIEF IN THE NIGHT".

AS MY PAIN IS SURFACED, BUT ONLY FOR HEALING TO GAIN GROUND AND COVER ME WITH GRACE,
I CAN SMELL THE FRAGRANCE OF LOVE PRESENT, AND STAND WITHOUT INTIMIDATION OF MY HATER'S FACE.

AS I SOAR ABOVE THE CLOUDS IN FULL VIEW OF MY PURPOSE, I REJOICE IN GREAT DELIGHT,
I GRIP THE SEED OF MY DESTINY SECURING MY PLACE IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, RESISTING "THE THIEF IN THE NIGHT".

AS I BIRTH OUT MY BLESSINGS AND GIFTS, THAT I CONCEIVED FROM ON HIGH, THROUGH THE INSERTION OF ETERNITY,
I SEE THE MANIFESTATION OF MY BEAUTY BEHELD, AS NIGHT PASSES ME OVER AND MORNING COMES FOR ME.

I PRESS FORWARD IN THAT, THAT I CAN'T SEE , FEELING THE POWER OF FAITHS HAND PUSHING ME TO SUCCEED IN VICTORY THROUGH THE FIGHT,
I LIVE IN FREEDOM AND WALK THE PATHWAY OF THE BUTTERFLY, BECAUSE LIBERTY HAS CAUSED ME TO RESIST "THE THIEF IN THE NIGHT".

"SHE IS FREE" BY: LIBERTY'S PR$CE

She is Free, no holds or chains,
No strings attached, no secret shame.
No time to die, but live today,
Ready to breathe, and comes what may.
No boundaries, in front of me
No limitations, because she is free!

"A CITY WITHOUT A HEART" BY: L.LIBERTY

I WONDER IF WE LIVE ON A DEAD END STREET BECAUSE OUR CITY HAS NO HEART,

AND THE WOMEN AND MEN HAVE NO MERCY TO THEIR HUSTLING GAMES, BECAUSE OUR CITY IS KNOWN AS THE UTTERMOST PARTS.

WHERE MORNINGS JUST DON'T SEEM TO COME FAST ENOUGH AND OUR EVERYDAY LIVING IS NOT SO SUNNY,
WHERE OUR ISSUES BECOME SOCIETY'S ISSUES, WHEN
THERE ARE BROKE POCKETS AND BABIES WITH STARVING TUMMIES.

WHERE THE PROSTITUTE IS ON THE PROWL AND SELLING HER GOODS FOR $5.00 JUST TO GET A HIT,
AND SUGA DADDIES ARE IN STYLE FOR OUR YOUNG LADIES, JUST SO THEY CAN GET THEIR HAIR AND NAILS DONE, NEW SHOES, AND A NEW OUTFIT.

A CITY WHERE CRIMINALS ARE MADE FAMOUS ON THE DAILY NEWS AND CONSEQUENCES END IN DEATH FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD SNITCH,
AND FAST MONEY'S ON EVERY STREET CORNER, BECAUSE EVERYBODY'S TRYIN' TO GET WHAT WE CALL HOOD RICH QUICK.

A CITY WHERE THEY MAKE THEIR OWN RULES, AND FOLLOW THEIR OWN CITY CODES NO MATTER WHAT THE CONSEQUENCES BRING,
AND WHERE TRUST IS LIMITED SO LOYALTY AND AMBITION ARE PROVEN TO BE JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.

A CITY WITHOUT A HEART, WHERE BROTHERS KILL BROTHERS ,AND MOTHERS KILL CHILDREN, AND FATHERS ARE RAPING THEIR OWN.
AND THE CHURCH FOLKS ARE SCANDELIZING THEIR OWN NAMES, MONEY LAUNDERING, AND BRINGING THE PRESS INSIDE OF THEIR HOMES.

WHERE BABIES ARE HAVING BABIES AND TEACHERS ARE DATING THE STUDENTS THAT THEY ARE TEACHING IN THEIR OWN CLASS,
AND CHILD MOLESTATIONS IN YOUR OWN HOUSE BUT NOBODY WILL TELL, AND GRANDMA'S PRAYING THAT THIS STORM WILL SOON PASS.

WHERE DRUG DEALING, RAPE, SUICIDE, AND MURDER ARE TAKING FRONT AND CENTER STAGE,
AND CROOKED COPS, DIRTY LEADERS, ATHLETES AND EVEN THE WHITE HOUSE IS MAKING NEWS PAPERS FRONT PAGE.

A CITY FILLED WITH REBELS WITH NO LIMITS, NO SELF CONTROL, AND NO BOUNDARIES BECAUSE IT'S A CITY WITHOUT A WALL,
A CITY WHERE PEACE HAS NO RESIDENCE AND LOVE HAS NO NEIGHBORS, BECAUSE IT'S A CITY WITHOUT A HEART AT ALL!

"In God We Trust"

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have they that do his commandments. His praise endures forever! Psalms 111;10




In God we trust? Metophorically speaking, or is it something we really mean.
Land of the free and home of the brave, or does that statement stand to be corrected? So it seems.

In God we trust? That's a question in my head, loudly ringing day after day.
And are we really A "United State" here in America better known as the USA?

In God we trust? But how so when everybody's going crazy and loosing their cool.
And when the government slash Whitehouse has forced prayer out of the schools.

In God we trust? When folk offended by Jesus name! Oh, excuse me for being so direct.
But I'm wondering how were a country founded on him, yet denying his name, that's kinda what I call; politically incorrect.

In God we trust? When nothing seems safe and this generation is constantly destroying each other.
And how easy it seems to blame Iraq, and Osama when were the ones succeeding the most at waging war and taking out one another.

In God we trust? When houses are divided, children lack proper parental guidance and divorce is the number one cause of division in Christian homes.
And When flesh and blood can't even be trusted because relatives or turning on their own.

In God we trust? When God is love but love is only given under certain conditions, so who's really standing up for this cause?
A country known to protest and march because of their rights to have freedom of speech, but who's pickett signing about God?

In God we trust? Or is it just how we feel or what we say in the heat of the moment or due to turmoil circumstance?
Do we believe he even exists, or will we be too busy wondering that until there is no second chance.

In God we trust? But no real truth behind our reverence until fatal calamities, Then everbody's bowing heads and lifting hands in fear thinking judgement day is set.
And when things go back to "normal" we go back to giving him the cold shoulder diverting from "Lord save the world" to "I ain't ready to be saved yet".

In God we trust? This is a question for the nations, you say yes but no is the answer that is proven as clear as day.
In God we trust? But do we really in this so called "United States" here in America better known as the USA!

My Convictions

Today I pose a challenge to myself an ask myself. Exactly how free are you? Am I running after my own ambition or am I fulfilling the purpose of God? We say we know God, we have a personal relationship with the Father and we Know why he sent His Son to die for us, Jesus Christ. But the truth of the matter is even though we are a work in process, some of the things that we do we know better but yet we still do it, to satisfy the human lusts that we crave everyday. WOW! How then could we preach to a dying world in our state, if we as Christians only allow Jesus to come in were we want Him to be. Because somethings to be honest about it become a challenge to give up. We pursue these sins in the knowing that they are against everything that we are "supposed" to stand for. How can I bless or be a blessing to someone else if I can't even run in a straight lane myself. Who am I going to show the way. The word of God says "Who the Son sets Free is Free Indeed", So have we been set free by the Son? Of course we have! But do we walk in the freedom that Jesus has given us, do we put Him first in everything that we do? Do we love Him with everything in us as He commanded, and do we love our neighbor as we love ourself? Do we even know what that love is? Yes! I have questions sometimes about me and who it is I am truly serving, my own satisfactions or Is it all about the Lord Our Jesus Christ who saved us from sin and shame. Even knowing what I know I sometimes still allow myself to slip up and do or say that which I know I should'nt. This is just me! HELP LORD! Save me from my Self Righteouness, when I can look at someone else and judge there sin to make myself feel better, Save me from that. Save me from My Memory, things I know I should not still be enticed with I am, Save me from that! Save me from my brokeness, I should be free right now, after all I been saved for 10years now. Save me from my lies that I feed to myself to make me feel better about the sin I do. Save me from me Lord, not anyone else. Save Me! I want to be free once and for all! Save me from the way I feel about other church folks sometimes. They get on my nerves. This is me! Forgive me for getting too comfortable with you and your grace and mercy. Refresh me, Revive me, Restore me! Love me and let me feel it, like I did when I first met you Lord! I won't play church anymore. I am tired, I just want to be free! Is there anyone with me? These are my convictions, this is me standing and facing myself and it feels pretty good. If I feel like this I can just imagine the unsaved, and the babe, and the Many Leaders who struggle and want to be Helped. I can just imagine those who don't know Him in the Pardon of their Sin, it's a dying world out here it's time for me to get out of me and follow Christ for real. It's time for me to be Free!

The Mind of My Thoughts Today

How do we handle the pressures of life and still keep it together. There is the pressure to succeed when everyone else around you expects you too. The pressure to be true to your calling, even though sometimes you don't feel like it. The pressure to do the right thing always because you are known as the good guy (what is that about). And last but not least, the pressure to fit into these stereo types of being a size perfect 8 or being a "DIVA"and of course my favorite the pressure of "prestige, power, and popularity" in today's society. Well I say to hell with pressure and all of the other stereo types. It is time for you to be you no matter how it looks to anyone else. I believe that pressure from your surroundings is something that you could never ignore, but at the same time you don't have to play into it's hands and allow it to cause you to conform to something you never meant to become in the first place. So how do we handle pressure? Good question. I think we should always handle pressure and take control of our own lives, or pressure will handle you.
