infirmity, embraced

Infirmity 4-16-14 The theme here and now Is the law restated Happy to be today by the world hated In that soon it will be time To surrender and to yield Standing on the corner of Market and Garfield If indeed there is such a place yet to go I rejoice in mine infirmity Under God's grace Where Jesus answers, yeah, I will By the farther side of Jordan He taught them much I wait for my optimum view To once more face west I rejoice in my infirmity In that I am put to the test.... On Mark 9:49, 50 4-16-14 For everyone shall be salted with fire Shaking through and opportune Is he whom doth preach to the choir Have salt within yourselves To earn your hire For the happiness of your heart He wrote you this precept I pray for those Whom wish to attend the job fair Where I sit at my table and read the sign And they twain become as one flesh For every one shall be salted with fire Baptized in one's refinement Suffer children to come to me For such is the greatest in the kingdom Forbid them not For everyone shall be salted.... Pillar Of Salt (Lo, We Have Followed You) 4-16-14 Why call me good There is no one good but God I have high hopes to understand this precept And to claim my seat upon an east table Plowing on into chapter ten So that I might take up tablet and pen To practice my passion of my profession I rejoice in mine infirmity It is easier for a camel To go through the eye of a needle Than a rich man to enter the kingdom Turning back to become a pillar of salt As he that humbles oneself Yeah, God doth exalt Reading these verses backwards In skimming the river That rages north Lo, we have left all And have followed thee..... Believe And Receive 4-16-14 Yet to believe that I will receive And therefore be given my petition Forgive if ye have aught against any Accept with importunity and repetition What would ye that I should do for you By faith I begin again Where I left off last year Go thy way Thy faith hath made you whole Be of good comfort It shall be given unto thee For whom it is prepared And from this point on I write what is on my heart To but engrave by way of an old and new writing In a new tablet Fair enough, so let it be I am what I am In his majesty.... Turning The Page 4-16-14 Strawing branches in the way As one to declare to be doing okay Casting garments upon the colt For something to say Because the Lord had need of him Hosanna, blessed is he that comes in his name Coming to Bethany and Bethphage Being one to find the strength To turn again the page Speaking on this side of the Jordan Letting the bird out of his cage Calling into remembrance The fig tree yet to bring forth fruit Strawing branches in the way Blessed be the kingdom Hosanna in the highest I am what I am today In Jesus..... Forgiveness, The Key 4-16-14 Yet in my Edrei and Ashteroth I find my way in the steam of minestrone broth Spelling out my latest rhymes to express how I am wroth Killing Sihon and Og For the cause of fulfillment Where forgiveness is the key to one's healing Not according to what one might be feeling On this side of Jordan These merchants are yet dealing In the land of Moab Where I stare at my ceiling You have dwelt in this mountain long enough Turn ye northward And your legs will receive strength To go on foot Forgiveness is the key to every door.... On Deuteronomy 1:8 4-16-14 To Jacob, to Israel and to Abraham This land has been promised Go and claim it And join me to an Easter ham Halleluliah, I can smell it Under the shades of trees Of which even a child can spell it Firs, oaks and elms Oars, rudders and helms Making our way back upstream Last night I had another disturbing dream Getting back up into my Mount Seir Being one to go there and face my giants And face my fear A mean idea to call my own For those that have ears Let them hear.... Pearl Of Great Price 4-16-14 Pearls of wisdom Doth fall from my lips In what I am yet to speak of And the honey drips Washed in the blood and sweat Of he that goes on day trips Showing not partiality Hearing the small as well as the great Being not afraid of the presence of man In one's resentment, bitterness and folly of such hate Digging my place for a winefat that God did create The stone which the builders rejected Hath become the head of the corner As therefore we will be as those that wait Given the patience in asking for this consolation..... Penny 4-16-14 So there is Lincoln on the penny Mentioned in the King James translation In allusion to our Caesar And they marveled at him Plowing onward according to my high tower Being as one to yield to my higher power As Jesus sits right beside me As a watchful eye Do ye not therefore err in asking why And as touching the deaf I play my classic archives To discern the contrast Of truth and of lie Therefore ye do greatly err Bringing you closer to a God That cares for you today..... Departing Thence From Horeb 4-16-14 Yet to believe it So that I can receive it Departing thence from Horeb To go into the wonderful and terrible wilderness So I can love my God with all mine understanding O, Lord all I ask is that I will make it through Coming soon again to the mountain of the Amorites So that I might reach out to you Ye therefore do greatly err As sure as my cat lies beside me and does purr She has been a great companion Yet to believe it So that I can receive it As one to love my God with all my strength It is a good land As which God is giving us Stated in the present tense Now is the time for the kingdom As today we can truly be....
