Another Moment Of Truth

 

We all need help, 

that's nothing new.

The real question is, 

who will help you?

You could find an answer,

 by reading a self-help book.

You can ask someone,

 to show you where to look.

You keep yourself busy,

and hope it will go away.

While others will say, 

read your horoscope today.

You could say some chants,

 and think it will disappear.

You look into astrology, 

and think the answer is there.

You could certainly pretend,

 everything is okay.

You can ignore warnings,

 no matter what they say.

There's only one answer,

 in this moment of truth.

His name is JESUS,

 who can help you.

SOMEONE SPECIAL

 

The day we first met, 

I knew she was the one.

The very moment,

 our friendship had begun.

There was no looking back,

 to our lonely days.

We had something special,

 I'll remember always.

With countless visits,

 and calls on the phone.

Even a cozy dinner,

 when we were at home.

So many great memories,

that were made.

Especially the times,

when we always prayed.

When I look back,

in a moment like this.

Those times with her,

I surely do miss.

All those years,

with my best friend.

I know someday,

I'll see her again.

 

Two Lonely People

 

We were two good people living in a fairy tale.

We enjoyed each other's company and our love set sail.

We were two lonely people headed down the wrong way.

But we found each other and enjoyed this very day.

We were two nice people who deserved better than this.

Not the pain and agony, it's something we won't miss.

We were two friendly people that loved one another.

Her own family deserted her but we still had each other.

We were two hurting people in an unexpected journey.

We encountered hatred in front of bad company.

We were two loving people that are back on trail.

We encountered ridicule but our love did prevail.

CJ

 

My heart aches every time I see.

The empty chair near the TV.

This sweet lady suddenly passed away.

Part of me died and I'm left astray.

I miss CJ, she was my best friend.

We had great times till the end.

I know God will call me home too.

Till we meet again, I LOVE YOU!

CJ's NEW HOME

 

She's no longer lives with us,

she's with God in heaven.

She's no longer excluded, 

but welcomed in God's family.

She's no longer in agony, 

but enjoys the peace for eternity.

She's no longer in torment, 

but is happy in God's dwelling place.

She's no longer disabled, 

but healed from head to toe.

She's no longer stressed, 

she lives in perfect harmony.

She's no longer lonely, 

but in the presence of God.

She's no longer in pain,

since God called her home.

EVERYBODY

 

I am nobody who wants to be somebody

to help anybody so everybody will join

to help the next nobody.

Then nobody joins somebody who invites

anybody and they all become everybody

to work together and help nobody.

In the end there is always somebody

who is friends with anybody and they

belong to a group called everybody.

And nobody is never excluded.

Journey to Remember

 

We started on a journey, directed by God himself.

Who took us on a path, we couldn't do ourselves.

It brought us joy and abundance of love.

Together with lots of care, thanks to God above.

We continued our journey with some bumpy roads.

Still guided by God that led us to a crossroad.

Unfortunately pain and agony came along our ride.

God was not a spectator, he still did provide.

Our journey continued with moments hard to explain.

With more afflictions, but God's presence still remain.

He never left us, though sometimes we felt alone.

He was still present, we were not on our own.

Our journey was not forever, it had an end.

But thanks to God, we were best friends.

I still think of her, she's etched in my heart.

Those memories I hold, it will never part.

 

DEAR CJ

 

We had something special, 

that even the angels knew.

They always looked down, 

and saw me with you.

Praying together was great, 

and give thanks to God too.

Every time I came home, 

I couldn't wait to see you.

You set up my own bed, 

and made me feel at home.

You always welcomed me, 

when I saw you in your room.

Six years doesn't seem long, 

but the memories sure do.

All the laughter's and the chats, 

and cooking we did too.

Bless your heart you said, 

and even I love you dear.

Those words are special, 

they're music to my ears.

Despite all the pain, 

you had to go through.

You found a way, 

to always help me too.

With God as my witness, 

I promise to do.

I will help someone else, 

in honor of you.

And someday soon, 

I will see you again.

When heaven gates open, 

and God invites me in.

IT'S ABOUT TIME

 

I rounded them up, hatred, greedy,

jealously, revenge and fear.

Bring also prejudice, resentment,

selfish, malice and bitterness here.

SHOW THEM ALL THE DOOR!

I don't need them anymore.

              CHOOSE ONLY ONE!

              DISCARD THE REST.

I CLEANED OUT MY HEAD.

SO MUCH GARBAGE I HAD.

THAT WAS A LOAD I GOT RID OF.

I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER!

IT'S EASY TO SMILE.

DOWN MEMORY LANE

 

I call out her name, 

when I walk inside the door.

I never hear her voice, 

she's not there it anymore.

I take another walk, 

down memory lane.

She may be gone, 

but those times remain.

All the joys and laughter 

and sometimes tears.

We had the best times, 

for all those years.

Every moment we shared, 

it's memories we made.

I still recall those times, 

they will never fade.

I have all the photos, 

it's still in a frame.

I look at each one, 

but it's not the same.

They are my keepsake, 

I think about her every day.

It's hard to move on, 

when I still miss her today.

MY DEAR FRIEND

 

I heard her voice yesterday on a recording again.

The sweet voice that came from my dear friend.

I stare at her photo and wonder why did it end?

I could only imagine what might have been.

My tears are words my heart can't express.

She was tormented and suffered in duress.

A sweet caring person with a big heart.

She had a pain that tore her apart.

I'm filled with anguish that I can't rid of.

My life is shattered I lost the one I loved.

My dear friend is gone after all those years.

I'm left with a photo and a pool of tears.

 

SERVE THE LORD

 

What am I going to do, 

where do I go?

When will you answer me,

 I want to know.

I want to do your will,

 and do it your way.

I'm waiting patiently,

 and hope it's today.

I don't want to be a spectator,

 not even a doormat.

I'm looking for a purpose,

 and not only that.

I want to serve you,

 and help others too.

Obey your commands,

 and live my life for you.

I deny myself,

 and take up the cross.

Whatever I gained,

I now consider loss.

I'll give you my best, 

in everything I do.

I promise to be faithful,

 and always honor you.
