INSPIRATION: ALMOST | POEM

One of the most dangerous terms in English diction
two words designed and strategically combined
to form the biggest oxymoron in the history of mankind
the term is ALL-MOST
See in this world it is perfectly ok to be almost. We have zombies on tv that are almost alive
In sports we get a ribbon if almost tryI have to admit that sometimes I am almost right
Because I Sometimes text people I'm here when I have almost arrived
See now a days, you can hookup with folks just to sleep around
and stop at your local clinic where you almost have a child. 
Your parents wouldn't send you to a school that's almost safe
and ladies, would yo.   She u really date a man who claims he's almost straight?
for this world its ok to be almost but that doesn't work for God.
You're either all in our all out, you can't be near and far
See you can't almost love God or almost be committed.
But almost is what we want if we would truthfully admit it.
Some folk are too ok with being almost successful,
Then we are surprised when people say you are only almost special.
For When you almost give 100 percent Or almost try your best
Don't be surprised when you apply and you never get to be next
If almost is one of Lucifer's many traits
then we are inadvertently good Satan impersonation
See, 'almost' is no stranger to Satan. Here's proof:
he only tells lies when they're almost the truth
But on the contrary, Christ did his job fully
He proved he was God when he died on the cross like it was his duty
and to pardon my iniquities that I committed rudely
he resurrected from the grave just to tell death to excuse me
but excuse me, this is your life and that's something I can't impose on
but your body is God's home which was loaned and was about to get foreclosed on
See, an almost Christian looks right but lives wrong
They are good at faking worship and love to sing songs like I surrender All. . .MOST
we live not righteous, but right-ish
So now all God sees is a pile of ISHmael's when he intended for Isaac's
So Let me break it down because you need to beware that your life could lack the very standards that need to be there
See almost might work for mild salsa, where you can be almost hot.
But what's the point of coming to church pretending you're something you are not.
Cuz on that final day of judgment while God's receiving his heir
will he say, Son, well done or medium rare!
This is the very thing about God that we all try to get around
but his standards are like between two mountains--no middle ground
So a halfway life is unprofitable to you
cuz after all the Sabbath schools, Bible studies, and prayer meetings
and everything that goes between, God will say I never knew you
But that's not even the worst part of living your life as neutral
it's not that you are arctic but it is your lukewarmness that is causing him to spew you
Now I don't say this put you down but I say this because I was held down
By the unforgiving gravity of my spiritual reality
I was a Christian, or at least I portrayed the fantasy
With a filthy personal life but with nice suits and a nice smile
I portrayed the life of Christian but I could only do it a while
So i lived my life as a Christian pretender
My message couldn't be received because I didn't represent the sender
Till that one day when I totally, absolutely and completely surrendered
I found God's word and devoured it like enchiladas soaked in mole
My friend, Just like you don't almost get wet when you go dance in the rain,
you don't almost go to hell when you almost get saved
Don't worry i'm almost done, but before i leave this stage
we have all worked in sin and death was minimum wage
but if it wasn't for Christ we would have almost got paid

 

 

Inspiration: Be Brave | Poem

Everyday so many people live lives they don’t want to live.
They do all of what they hate to do
And none of what they love to do
And the reason why is Because Everything they love and want is on the other side of their fears
We would rather live the comfortable life and stay in a small life
Then to face our fears and live in a great life
see we all have big dreams that we wish we could achieve
But You can’t fit a big dream into a small life
So we must be brave to live a great life
But Bravery isn’t an attitude or a feeling It’s a choice.
Because honestly We are all afraid of something
But Bravery isn’t the absence of fear, It’s the overcoming of that fear.
So we must Feel that fear and do it anyway
If we don’t, It won’t be because of our skills, or talents that we will be limit us
It will be our fears that will become our limits
So We must make the decision to Be brave
We must make the decision to bury our fears and take that leap into the life that was created for us
The decision saying that, I don’t want to live this way any more
For it is worth the sacrifice of leaving behind all of what is holding us back, so we can gain all of what will move us forward.
And when we take that leap, when we make that decision, even if we begin to fall, then our god will always catch us.
So today, You can either choose to be brave or choose to be afraid
Today we must Choose to be brave.

Inspiration: Shine Bright | Poem

Let us shine bright

When those dodgeballs of life come hurtling toward us
We must shine bright
When those dodgeballs of trials and tribulations come flying our way
We must shine bright
When those dodgeballs of loneliness, stress, and sicknesses come flying at our heads,
We must shine bright
When Those dodgeballs of bills, student loans, and credit card payments come flying at our pockets,
We must shine bright
When it is uncomfortable to stand for Christ
We must shine bright
See in those times when all of the dodgeballs in the world seem aimed at us and we just feel like we have no escape
That is when we want to turn our lights out and just to run away
However that is when we need to let our lights shine the brightest
We wonder why we go through dark times in life, dark times that seem to last forever
That is because the darkest nights, produce the brightest lights
And out of the worst situations come the greatest inspirations
God has perfect timing, never early, never light.
And His promises and blessings are always worth the wait.
A wise man once said, Don't light yourself on fire trying to brighten someone else's existence.
But I disagree
We need to be lit with a fire that never expires,
So that we can inspire the ones that are tired.
We need our lights to shine bright everywhere we go.
Giving hope to the people to illuminate the soul
But before we can give light to others to help them grow
We must have light ourselves in Christ so we can glow.
See Just like the moon cant shine without the suns light
We cannot shine without the son of God in our life
They say shine bright Like diamonds in the sky
But I'd rather shine bright like the son Jesus Christ
Because Jesus shines like a million suns ablaze
Wrapped in eternal light receiving the highest praise
He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end
And we won't need the sun no more because we will forever be with Him.
Jesus the First, the Last, The Bright, the Morning Star
Its only because of Him we can glow in the dark
But don't worry I'm almost done
But before I leave this stage
We have all walked in darkness
And sin has blinded our way
But because of Christ we can finally open the shades
