A shattered heart
Grace Found!
Long Shadows
Forgotten Prayers
Living Rock
~
Life is filled with
Long Shadows
Satan’s Whip
A stinging dirge of
Forgotten Prayers
Drives me to
My knees upon
The Living Rock
~
My knees
Which I have placed
Upon
The Living Rock
Life is lived to
Completeness under
The Long Shadow
Of the Cross
For the sins confessed
Are the only part of
Forgotten Prayers
~
Long Shadows
Forgotten Prayers
Living Rock
Grace Found

Yesterday was the five-year anniversary of Men of One Accord this year has been one of the hardest years for me to do any writing. My heart is so focused on getting an outreach started for children who have never heard about Jesus. I have also been very poor at keeping up with my WordPress family writings. You all are such great writers and I know I am missing so many blessings from all of you.
Now may the Lord Bless you as He turns His face upon you, Amen!
The Shepherd!
The soft whisper
Of the Shepherd
A warming tone
To the battered heart
His gentle touch
Upon the tear-stained cheek
His strong arms embrace
The broken one
As He carries
His child home.
This poem was inspired by a blogger, a prayer warrior, and a sister in Christ Jesus. https://betsyborchardt.wordpress.com/2016/09/14/love-is-faithful/
Please take a moment and read her loving words she penned to inspire my heart!
Jesus vs. Santa
Dr.Dobson, Said something like this, Children only know what we teach them. Here is what we should be teaching our children!
Teasure In Heaven!
Eighteen months ago I started a project wondering why God brought me here. The hours were long, the stress was high, the work load very heavy, and the co-workers hard tough men. Why would God send me to work here on this project and to the world I walked away from many years ago?
What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go in search of the one that went astray?
Matthew 18:12
At work many men came and many did not have what it took to perform this task yet early on I met this man who was in his early fifties and was somewhat new in his walk with Christ we became friends. Because of the nature of the work the names shall be changed for the good of all, so he shall be known as Chuck.
Chuck and I would have many great conversations about life with Christ. One day Chuck was telling me about his grandchildren and how they were being raised without any knowledge of God and how he did not know how to teach them about Jesus. I told I have a tool for you so I gave him a copy of “Donkey Tells” and said to do not worry the little story will walk them through the Good News of the Gospel and is told in a way they will understand and keep them captive. When you are alone with them read it to them and answer their questions as you go along. Pray for their hearts to be open to the Good News before you start and the Holy Spirit will do the rest.
Chuck took the little book and did as I as ask and he kept me informed too his progress. He was surprised by the story line and how his grandchildren wanted him to keep reading to them. It took time before he finely finished the and one morning he told “It worked I prayed with my grandsons and they now have Jesus in their hearts. The boy`s ages are from 7 to 10 years of age and they now are going to church with Chuck.
Three weeks ago on a Monday morning before work I got a text-message from Chuck, “Please pray for my seven-year old grandson he was hit by a car and I will not be in today.
The next Monday morning I met Chuck in the parking lot and he was barely holding himself together as he told me they took Steven off life support and he is gone. I began to weep with Chuck and prayed the Holy Spirit over us. Then these words came to me, “Steven is in heaven and you prayed with to have Jesus in his heart. He is in the arms of Jesus right now and He shall always be forever and ever, and you shall see him again soon. You did your job as his Grandfather and gave him Jesus.”
Chuck said, “No you gave him Jesus it was your words in “Donkey Tells” that showed him the way.”
I replied, “It was the Holy Spirit who gave me the story and many, many others along the way who helped me get the story published who gave your grand son Jesus. We all have an equal reward in the saving of this young soul. One thing when we get to heaven will you introduce me to Steven?”
Chuck came back with, “Steven is waiting for you to get to heaven he has a hug for you.”

Monday Quotes!
“The chief means of resisting manipulation is humility – knowing who we really are and facing it. You can only serve by love. You can only love by choice. True love cannot be the result of decree, force or manipulation. Jesus always kept his strength to make loving choices. He calls us to make loving choices necessary to be the servant of all.” “Humility permits me to own my feelings – and to admit them. Now I’m free to say, ‘I’m angry’. I’m free to admit what I am reacting to. I am free to ask if anger is what the person wanted to produce in me, and to ask for help in changing if my reaction is inappropriate.”
― Gayle D. Erwin, The Jesus Style
Father’s Day
This Is My Talent.
Abba our Father hear this day
the cries of the men who bare the
name of your Son.
We ourselves who have become fathers
are being beaten down,
the evil one, the world, and sin
are deceiving our children.
With drugs, sex and lies the evil
has undermined the authority
You our Lord has given unto us.
On our knees before the Throne
we come to besiege
all of hell
for the souls of our children.
Turn Your Face upon
us as fathers and raise us up
as a standard against
the evil that has entered our land.
Fill us with Your Holy Spirit
give us words of Heaven’s Wisdom,
Abba’s Holy Loving Words,
and the Power of the Great I AM,
as men and fathers
we stand in the gap
for our Families.
Amen.
