Jesus

Let me tell you about my Savior, He ain't no fraud.
He is perfect, believe me He isn't flawed.
People call him cheap, like a hack or a game mod.
In reality He's worth more then your tv, computer or iPod.
He never got a cheer, shout, or even an applaud.
Instead, He was crucified after being whipped and clawed.
My Savior, he is the one true Son of God.

Fight Back

What seems to be of value
It has no worth to me
All the things of this earth
They will pass beneath my feet

Sometimes these things hurt
They stick into your heart
Remember all the armor
Hold your faith from the start

It will always protect you
From the coming worldly attack
Don't cower away from them
Stand up and fight back

Charge in with great strength
As you hold onto The Word
You will always win your battle
Holding onto God's personal Sword

This is a little advice
I give to my friends
But the one needing it most
Its me in the end

Random Inspiration!! :)

Listen to my voice!
Yes, listen intently,
For my passion grows deep,
And I love you immensely,

Read my Word
Oh, lowly child of mine
Prepare your heart,
To meet the great divine!

There is a day
That only I see
Soon I will take you
To be with me

Believe on my Son
For he is the only way
Have faith in Him
and Mine, you will stay

Temptation

Clear my mind
Please oh Lord
Show me peace
Open that door

My head runs
I cannot think
Driving me crazy
On the brink

He slips in
That little devil
Showing me temptation
"Become a rebel"

Surrender to you
Giving it away
Can't stand alone
"Help", I pray

I strive daily
With these fears
I might fail
Bringing about tears

Then I remember
He who lives
I stop worrying
Because Jesus forgives

A Gift

She gave me one
Oh this is true
The best thing
Wasn't even new

Its not deserved
But was much needed
I'll use it standing
And even seated

Can you guess
Take a whirl
What's so special
Given from a girl

I'll keep it forever
Not just a while
All from her
I have a smile

Away

I can't stand this
I just want it to be over
Get me out of here
Just get me closer

Sitting so far
Across the earth
All I can think
What you're worth

Fly me back
To where I belong
By your side
Is where I'm strong

Lord my God
You have a plan
Until you reveal
Upright, I will stand

Jenny Swanson

Nothing like a big sis
Inviting me to your shack
Keeping your eye on me
Watching my back

I want to say thanks
How to do it?
So I will write something
Maybe it will fit

All the times you scream
When I poke your sides
Sitting on your couch
Until the sun dies

Those were good times
They are what I know
As I leave this place
Onward I will go

But you will be remembered
As another great sister
And if you ever need something
Just ask this mister

Jen Sutherland

I will miss you
More than you know
You've been a sister
In times so slow

I wish I could stay
Around you forever
Our random talks
Hanging out together

It's hard to describe
But you're part of me
I will always love you
Just like my family

I will miss you, Jen
That's all I can say
I will see you again
Can't wait for that day

A poem for two of my cousins for their baby showers

Today we all celebrate
Two great bundles of joy
They will come very quickly
For this is their ploy

They are like ninja's
coming for an attack
Start to prepare
And always watch your back

They strike very quickly
With a weapon so strong
You think you're safe
You are so wrong

Here come the rascals
With a punch, kick, and shove
But in the end
They attack you with Love

Thank you Lord

Its natural for times to get rough
We all deal with difficult stuff
But Jesus is always with us
Through the easy and the tough

Just don't get yourself down
When the right answer isn't found
Keep looking for our God
He is close and always around

Pushing through all the trials
He protects from all my rivals
With His love and saving grace
I keep running all the miles

Nothings impossible with my Lord
His love and blood was so poured
With a weapon I fight the enemy
I hold it high, the Spirit's Sword

A Passion

A love for all
The passion grows deep
Into their hearts
You do so Leap
Something I admire
A sense of care
For everyone around
Everything you share
I want to tell
of things I love
A great attitude
Grace like a dove
A sense of pride
For values kept
An urge to conquer
Challenges you except
This is just few
Of those you hold
Things of love
Never bought never sold

Sunshine in Midst of Darkness

You have brightened my day
The clouds are pushed away
Sunny skies block out gray
All because what you say

Long has my heart been dim
The chance of love seemed slim
Then I gave my faith to Him
And you showed up on a whim

I don't know who is right
But for her honor I will fight
Today you have shown me light
Thank you for making life bright

Just came to me...

Lights, camera, action!
Things of this world
Such a distraction
Looking on things above
My life is like a fraction
Split between Him
And this sinful faction
The world doesn't listen
To them its all fiction
But I know better
I follow the restriction
He said to obey
With clear distinction
The Bible in my hand
It's the ultimate prescription
For such a sickness
A huge infection
He is my shield
My ultimate protection
From a dark world
Showing the deception
He is my light
Helping with my perception
I am heaven bound
In the ultimate section
A place of Love
And amazing affection
Thank you Lord!

My Dream!

People seem to think
That I'm not very sleek
But I have a dream


Not to look low
But to be her hero
And lift my self esteem


She is so amazing
And yet so straining
In all of her gleam


Its her lack of focus
Does she even notice
My heart tears by the seam


And yet I have joy
For this is my ploy
Cause she is my dream!!

A Man Among Boys

A pack of wolves approach. Circling their prey, waiting for a perfect opprotunity. He stands his ground. Striking with great speed and intense anger, the wolves leave their mark. Chewing, tearing, ripping. He smiles for he knows that they can hurt his body but will never break his spirit...
