The Face


Thankfully, the face does the heart belie.

It leaves us not judging, if we tend toward wise.

The softness of beauty often hides a greedy stare.

And battle scars hide a heart full of care.

It’s Jesus or Bust


“Trust us”, they say.

“We know what’s best for you”.

Just when and how have you proven that’s true?

“Eat what is right and obey all our laws.

Long life will be yours if you’ll just join our cause”.

I will keep to the Lord.  Thanks very much.

What’s “best” in your head is headed to dust.

The body is fine and it gets the job done.

But God and the flesh can never be one.

Words

Too many words does not a message endear.

Shortness of letters will bring the eye near.

Write them with sugar and the ants have their fill.

Speak of what’s holy and you coat them with dill.

He


Before he sinned, He saw the truth.

As he prayed, He watched in silence.

God gave way to sins of youth.

Then came morning and found him silent.

What could possibly be spoken?

Over time a tear develops.

God stood near, that tear a token.

The Lord’s his God because He cares.

Not just for the sake of religion.

The Living God lives within.

That’s why the man is called a Christian.
