Passage Through Fall

As I sit by the big tree
orange seas of leaves beneath my feet
seeking a friend or maybe a light
will you make it to morning, or fall to your hearts delight?
as the sunshine comes through
a whole series of thoughts unto you
now you are free
as it hits your eyes
as you begin to realise
our passage in time
is but a string in a line

Forgive

because there will be little time to forgive after death

you will be too late to embrace or accept the moment

a lifetime is a moment

would you forgive out of love

do you want to know me

or would you let something as fake as fear stop you being with me

I did what I needed to do

there is always room in my life, for you.

Sin – Is It Real?

I don’t believe you need to have a religion or faith to understand what sin is. Sin is engrained in society so that the majority of people have heard of it. It is a term which means ‘an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law.’ I suppose believing in the divine might mean you also believe in sin. There are those who believe in one or the other, but not both. But you cannot believe in God without believing in sin, and you cannot believe in sin without believing in God.

Despite lots of people arguing that God does not exist, let’s ignore that for now and look at what the sins are:

Happy Easter!

Blessed are they that mourn, they they shall be comforted. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are they which are hungry and thirsty for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. It is written again, thou shall not tempt the Lord Thy God.

Jesus Christ.

The day has arrived. Jesus Christ walks among us once again. After the power of God illuminated his tomb, and shone a light on his soul, he was risen. No longer bound by earthly limitations, but free in his spirit body once again.


EASTER - 1st POEM

Easy is the man gliding around the maze

shuttering earthly bound gifts to the crown

mesmerising and depleted

yet seeking the heart goldmine

Go read and review my books for Easter, yes?

Easter! A Time of Hope

A time for hope and joy, Easter. The time of Jesus Christ’s resurrection from the after. After returning, was spotted with holes in his hands and feet, wandering around. Sounds insignificant.

Looking at this a little more we can see that he returned with the help of God, who resurrected him. His enemies, afraid. His friends, astounded and happy. Still to this day we need a reason to believe. He walked among the human race once more. His form had changed, as it had done previously. It is not to suggest he was a shapeshifter, although it is likely that he was, due to his spiritual nature, he could take human form like angels.

Easter, a time for chocolate and over indulgence. The modern world, inverting everything like usual, has to turn it on its head and sin. Gluttony and lies plague Easter. We get irrelevant images of bunnies, instead of attending church in humble honour of His sacrifice for our sins. I watched an Easter service last year online, delivered by a reverend I knew at the time. I must say it sticks in my mind because it was brilliant. Very imaginative and detailed as it chronicled Jesus from crucifixion to resurrection.

The resurrection shows us that God, is more powerful than anything in the universe, for He can literally raise the dead. It proves that love, is stronger than hate and fear. It shows a fathers love for his son, saved him. Jesus was the strongest man on earth at one point, taking the unthinkable burden of sacrificing himself for the sins of humanity, knowing the weight of what he was doing.

For over two thousand years, since his death, the human race has sinned in various forms. War, suffering, anger, hate, gluttony, cheating, free reign on porn and sex, magic and bitch craft, murder, scheming, secret vows, political satire bullshit, animal slaughter, disgracing God and Jesus’ names. The list goes on.

What have we become if not immoral inherent? Are we really capable of ascension, forgiveness and true unconditional love?
