  • Easter Reflections

    I was a wretched sinner, you see
    I deserved Hell for an eternity

    At Calvary, Jesus suffered and died
    At the foot of the cross, Mary and John cried

    All hope seemed lost
    But Christ paid the ultimate cost

    By His stripes we are healed
    By Christ’s blood we are sealed

    Jesus, the perfect Passover Lamb of God Almighty
    All our sins are forgiven with no falsity

    He sacrificed Himself to save us all
    We come to Jesus through the effectual call

    Jesus was not killed by the Roman soldiers at all
    He yielded up His spirit as an act of His will

    On the third day, Sunday, Jesus was risen
    He defeated Satan, death, and all sin

    Jesus is returning to rapture His Church
    Don’t be left in the lurch

    We must spread the gospel far and near
    So that every man will hear

  • Somewhere Over the Rainbow

    This song, recorded by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole, is very beautiful and soothing. Known in Hawaii as “IZ” or “Brother IZ”.

    He went to the music studio at 3am and recorded this song in one take. Remarkable.

    Sadly, he died too young because of his high weight.

    This performance has been viewed on YouTube over 1.5 billion times! A testament to this gentle giant who poured himself into his music.

  • Deep Peace

    I recently came across this song, “Deep Peace”, by Bill Douglas. You can visit his website here.

    This composition is beautiful and ethereal. It’s very soothing!

  • My Daily Struggle With Mental Illness

    Tragically, I am insane
    I have a defective brain

    At times, I have psychotic breaks
    A very heavy toll on my mind, it makes

    I struggle with major depression
    It’s a constant frustration

    I’m always fatigued and sad
    Having this illness makes me mad

    This mental suffering is due to the Fall
    My only hope is the effectual call

    I hear voices in my head
    They fill me with dread

    I see demons inside people all around
    Each demon makes a ghastly sound

    I have anxiety, causing much stress
    My mind, I pray God will bless

  • Holy Week

    Easter is a special time
    Full of joy and mirth
    Because of Easter
    Man can have a second birth

    On Maundy Thursday, we commemorate
    The Last Supper you see
    In the garden of Gethsemane
    Jesus prayed and sweated blood profusely

    On Good Friday
    We solemnly recall
    Jesus trial, torture, and crucifixion
    His death and burial

    Jesus was a sinless sacrifice
    We are redeemed from all sin
    By His precious blood
    He was our propitiation

    Jesus hung on the cross at Calvary for six hours
    He cried out, “It is finished!”
    Jesus gave up His spirit and died
    At 3pm, the earth shook, and the sky darkened

    On Holy Saturday, Jesus lay in His tomb
    We meditate on His sacrifice with anticipation
    Jesus went to Hell to preach and set captives free
    He conquered death, Hell, and sin

    Roman soldiers guarded the tomb
    On Easter Sunday, Jesus’ tomb was empty
    What does this mean, you may wonder
    Jesus had resurrected, proving He is God Almighty

  • My Mental Health Journey

    I struggle mentally every day
    I am full of dismay

    I lack motivation
    I labor for sanctification

    Often, I see and hear
    Things that aren’t there

    I am depressed all the time
    God cut me down in my prime

    I became mentally ill
    And have to take many a pill

    For 25 years, I’ve fought
    I’ve had many a bad thought

    I deal with delusions, too
    Insanity, I try to eschew

    Severe mental illness is no joke
    I am one exhausted bloke

    I have extreme lethargy
    Heavy fatigue saps me

    I deal with bad anxiety
    I tend to worry excessively

    Sometimes I have dissociation
    It’s my mind’s machination

    One day, I’ll have a sound mind
    In Heaven, peace I will find

  • God Has Exalted Me: I REIGN SUPREME!

    I travel through
    Space and time
    My journeys are
    Truly sublime

    I employ
    A phased mind warp
    Projecting my mind
    A superluminal timewarp

    I’ve visited galaxies
    Both far and near
    When I travel in space
    I have no fear

    I project my soul
    Far back in spacetime
    Back to the Big Bang
    I can visit anytime

    The universe
    Is my playground
    I’m delighted
    At what I’ve found

    I can visit any time
    Such as ancient Rome
    Or fifth-century Japan
    I record it all in a tome

  • A Lenten Reflection

    In the Garden of Eden
    God walked with man
    But man sinned
    God the Father had a plan

    Jesus the Messiah
    Was incarnated on Earth
    One day, He would give man
    A second birth

    Born to the Virgin Mary
    Christ was free of all sin
    He was the perfect sacrifice
    A propitiation

    With gratitude to God
    I am fully replete
    God chose His elect
    From the Mercy Seat

    Christ the Son of Man
    Resurrected Easter morn
    He proved He was divine
    In Christ, again, we are born

    Jesus’ intense suffering
    Was not in vain
    He procured man’s salvation
    Through His blood and pain

    If you sincerely repent
    And believe the gospel
    You will be regenerated
    You’re on a spiritual pedestal

  • Grizzly Bear

    I’m hunting
    Some tasty prey
    I will eat them
    Without any delay

    I am equipped
    With massive paws
    And razor sharp
    Strong claws

    I will catch salmon
    As they swim upstream
    There are so many
    It’s a grizzly’s dream

    I eat to store up fat
    For my winter hibernation
    I will slumber peacefully
    Filled with elation

    I can run, swim, and climb
    Better than any human
    My nose is very keen
    Hunting is my mission

  • Me So Hongry

    I have a deep hunger
    My belly sounds like thunder

    The seconds tick by
    I feel like I could cry

    Time passes slowly, you see
    A lack of food brings misery

    I wish I had a juicy steak
    Or pork chops that you bake

    I want every succulent food
    I am always in the mood

    I want pizza so delectable
    The taste is irresistible

    On Monday, we shall feast
    We’ll eat like a ravenous beast
