Ranging

Oh
Heavenly Lord!
You
are the Father of Life!
Who
loved me before I was alive?
Who
was the one who loved my life,
Even
before I was in my mother's womb?
Lord,
how your heart have so much room!
You
know I was going to sin.
And
was going to commit transgression,
Yet
you still loved me.
God,
how much you have mercy,
To
allow us to come into this world,
When
we didn't deserve to live in this world.
We
would have never existed.
But
God still insisted,
Since
his love was that of a Father,
Who
still loved his sons and daughter,
And
wanted them to be born,
Despite
the fact that if they were born,
They
would one day rebel against him.
Know
any lover more loving than Him?

Lord,
I worship you!
Regenerate
me anew!
Lord,
you are mighty,
You
are the one who strengthen me!
I
give my LIFE to you, Lord,
For
a peaceful accord.
I
thank you for my LIFE!
Without
you, I'll be so deprived.
How
can I ever survive?
They
say I don't need you,
They
say I'm weak because of you.
Lord,
how strong are they really?
Show
them the truth gently!
Lord,
I worship you effusively,
Thank
you for strengthening me!
Lord,
I thank you effusively.

It's
nothing to brag about,
But
something to be humble about.
The
gift Jesus had given me,
The
gift of writing poetry.
I
thank you for this LIFE.
Lord,
what a blessed LIFE!
This
poetic ability,
I
know it isn't from me!
It
was given by your grace,
You
were the one who had it in place.
God,
I thank you...
Let
me forever praise you!
Thank
you for this Poetic eminency.
How
I praise happily!

Oh
Lord, I feel so alive!
Do
people know how much I am alive?
Lord,
I could jump up and own,
And
shout above any sound,
As
people watch me all around,
Watching
me talk about the Jesus' Crown,
The
Crown of Eternal Life.
"Jesus,
I thank you for the crown of life!"
And
People would think I am nuts,
Since
I actually got the guts,
To
really say I have a life,
In
the one who gave me life,
The
one who's there in my strife,
The
one who stop the suicidal knife,
When
I'm down in my life,
And
have nothing else in life.
By
the way, when you fall,
Who
are you going to call?

I
found a source of skittles with life some time recently,
And
you won't believe where I stumble upon it lately.
It
wasn't hidden in some Irish Country side,
Or
under a secret pirate's gold treasure hide.
It
wasn't hidden deep within the Mayan jungles,
Or
some candy store that sold some candy skittles.
Rather,
I found the skittles with life in the heart of believers.

It's
the Thanksgiving Weekend.
What
was it all about again?
Was
it not for Thanksgiving,
To
stop for a day to be reflecting,
Of
the things you appreciate?
Oh
stop for a moment and wait!
What
am I thankful for?
Let
me tell you once more:
I'm
thankful for my youth,
To
test the limit of my youth.
I
thank God for this,
Along
with the true joy and bliss.
I
thank God for my salvation,
From
a path of Damnation,
and
the countless blessing,
That
He has gracefully given,
To
a nobody like me.
I
praise Him truly!
I
am thankful to still be in school,
Almost
becoming a dropout fool.
I
love God for each and every day,
And
grateful that I am allowed to pray.
I
thank God for the peace I have in Him!
And
how things don't look quite so dim,
When
you are focused on Him.

Man,
I'm high on Jesus!
Do
you know who is Jesus?
For
life, He's the guy you need to know,
Not
those fake TV show,
Of
guys preaching for money,
Designer
Clothes and new Mercedes.
They
could shout "Wealth!"
And
"God heal all your health!"
Pull
off a couple of false healing,
To
catch a couple more following.
But
then that's it!
Just
another sensational bit,
Crammed
in another half hour show.
Don't
you think that's so shallow?
If
you really want your LIFE transform,
Why
won't you really conform,
To
the one and only Jesus Christ?

Does
any one still remember April 20th, 1999?
Does
anyone recall the cry of Columbine?
Columbine,
Columbine, Columbine,
Wasn't
there a flower called Columbine?
Wasn't
Columbine a flower of life?
Yet
that day it took 13 life...
And
now those souls are gone,
Lord,
help those who remain continue on.
The
tragedy of death, the smell of horror.
The
agonized wounded, the groups of coroner.
Lord,
please don't forget Columbine!
Father,
I pray you still work in hearts and mind!
The
Columbine of death, life and tears,
Don't
let people forget with the passing of years.
God,
didn't you say there was eternal life?
Didn't
you say there was something more than this life?
Lord
God, let Columbine remind people about the next life,
And
the choices they have to make now in this life...
Columbine...

The
Lord knows fully well that I am meek.
How
can a scared little skinny boy not be weak?
But
to Him be the glory; He is the one who is strong.
I
gather strength from the God who is strong.
I
am a sissy, a loser and a sacredly cat,
Yes,
the Lord knows that all those are the fact.
I
am nothing more than a chicken.
God
saw my life broke down when I got kicked out.
God
knows what I am truly about.
Though
I can go through two boot camp,
He
show me that I still could be stamp,
And
reduce to a little whining crybaby.
But
to God be the glory.
During
that point in my life of misery,
God
was the one who single-handily,
Built
me up from scraps to forged me.
There
was no one else that had helped me.
My
salvation was His testimony.
My
character was made by His hand.
And
where others have had me banned,
He
alone had truly understand,
And
by His grace, He had made me a man.
God
is the one who made me,
And
to Him be the glory.
Though
I might still be a Chicken that's weak,
In
Christ, I'm a full-fledged Jesus Freak.

The
joy of life and being able to live.
Lord,
what a privilege!
But
Lord, a privilege is a privilege.
We
are never guaranteed another day.
Death
could come up to us any day.
Lord,
I thank you for life!
You
are the one who provided us life!
Father,
I pray that you have my life guided,
So
I won't have each day wasted.
Please,
Lord!

Stop
for a moment and examine your life!
People,
do you all live a sinless life?
Just
look at yourself!
If
you were to see yourself,
In
God's eyes, you are so bad!
You
definitely are a sinner gone mad!
You
say, "But I was good..."
Listen
folks, you're not good.
You
think, "I never raped anyone,
Or
murdered anyone with a gun."
But
surely you must have hated or lied,
Lusted,
or cursed with a boastful pride!
We
could very easily point fingers,
And
label other people as sinners.
But
where is your scarlet letter?
Hidden
on your chest is the scarlet letter.
But
Jesus died to take the scarlet letter,
So
he can be your personal Lord and Savior.
Do
you really want to keep the scarlet letter,
Which
brings wrath and righteous punishment?
Come
to Jesus and repent,
You
will find His arm waiting for you.

I
hate that myth that is going out there,
I
hate that message that "No One Care"
I
once believed in that message of being worthless,
I
lived it out when ever I go under stress,
And
that motivated me to dream of the Marine,
And
the illusions of heroic scene.
But
then I came to know Christ Jesus,
And
He transformed the life of a worthless,
Into
someone who has a new life,
Into
something of real life.

now you might have complain,
"Oh
Jim, you must be insane!
Life
is the poetry book's theme,
Why
did you write on a 'religious' theme?"
Let
me ask you: what makes it so 'religious'?
Is
it because I referred to God and Jesus?
Do
you even know what is a religion?
I've
studied so many cults and religion,
From
Astrology to Zoroastrian,
And
I can tell you that in Christ it isn't a religion.
When
you are in Christ, it's a personal relationship,
From
the hardest of hardship,
Through
the greatest times of joy
and happiness.
In
Christ, He is the source of comfort and peace.
If
I was religious and writing these poem today,
I
can tell you I won't be able to bust with life's ray.
I
would be bogged down with those dead eyes,
Trying
to be "religious" with no life nor surprise.
But
today I am in Christ Jesus,
And
I am so alive in Jesus!
How
can someone write twenty poems for this book,
And
be stuck in a deadly religiously repeating hook?
God
bless you friends, I am alive,
And
so I write these poems of how I became alive.

Everyone
who have ever breathed in this world,
Have
only one chance to leave a legacy in this world.
Yes,
only one chance out of all eternality,
To
make an impact to society.
As
for me I already know what I need to do.
I'm
going to tell the world that "Jesus loves You".

Two
days ago I met a fellow friend,
Who's
now at PCC with his other friend.
I
asked how's life and this is what he told me:
"Classes
are really boring,
Some
of the people are fat and balding.
There
were people just in their twenties,
Who
look like they were in their thirties.
There's
nothing much I really do,
I
don't even know my major yet too!
I
work at Del Taco at night,
So
I guess my life is all right.
I
sleep whenever I have free time,
Life
just seems pointless most of the time."
I
shook and got freaked.
I
thank God I have a purpose as a Jesus Freak,
Lord,
thanks for a purpose in my life.

If
you want to dedicate your life to Christ,
Here's
a prayer for life through Christ:
Dear
Lord,
Father
I come to you for forgiveness,
Please
save me by the blood of Jesus.
I
pray that with your strengths I'll repent,
For
you saved me from Eternal punishment.
Holy
Spirit, come into my heart,
Come
and clean this blacken heart.
Lord,
give me eternal life,
Forever,
please guide my life.
I
pray that you would disciple me,
And
by Your strengths forge me.
I
give my life to You,
In
Jesus name I pray,
Amen.
