I love to write. Here is one I would like to share with you.
G*d's plan always succeeds in the end By GL
A very elderly couple died in a tragic car accident recently but their story tells us about G*ds great plan of salvation and of G*ds plan for traditional marriage and His plans never fail. G*d said that when we marry we become, in spirit, one person. He also said what He joins together let no man tear apart. Marriage between a man and a woman was designed by G*d, initiated by God and is blessed by G*d.
The elderly couple had driven up to visit his older brother for his brothers 91st birthday party.They had just arrived and went straight over to see his brother and I am told that their visit was wonderful.After visiting they decided to go back to their motel for rest. It was getting dark and they took a very dangerous intersection home, it was notorious for accidents because it is two one way highway roads divided by a median of grass and between the two one way highways are two seperate stop signs and is not well lit and if you did not know the area you most likely would not be looking for a divided highway with two seperate stop signs.
It was dark when they left, and they were probably tired from their trip and he did not see the first stop sign and drove straight across one of the two lane one way highways and was struck immediately on his side of the car by a huge semi-truck. A devastating accident for sure.
After the accident the husband was life-flighted to a nearby city, Lubbock Texas, and the wife was taken to a local hospital where she underwent tests and examinations and was on observation only and would be released the next day. He was in critical condition and while in ICU at approximately 1 am the next morning he was pronounced brain dead.
Miles away back in the local town the nurse said that the mans wife sat up in bed at approximately 1 am and appeared to speak to someone in her room and said, "OK" and then she laid back down and died. There was no one standing in her room according to the nurse on duty.
There are those today that will attempt to delude this most sacred of ceremonies called, Holy Matrimony, but no matter what is done to destroy it the very institution G*d has set up will not be destroyed. Satan may try imitations, he may try to undermine the significance of marriage although Satan may try he always fails in the end. Our G*d reigns and no matter how much we go through in life G*ds plan of salvation,through Jesus Christ, just as His plan of marriage, will not fail us in the end! When we accept Jesus into our hearts and lives we are one in spirit with G*d.
Life nor death can seperate us from His love thanks to His glorious plan of salvation through His only son Jesus Christ!
The events of the accident were told to me by my boss, the nephew of the couple who died.Precious in the sight of God is the death of a saint.

My debut as a lubber poet, at this thread:
Written 3-18-09 //as// for post on Faith Forums
My Federal bedtime poem prayer (Not a happy prayer):
I lay my freedoms down to sleep, I pray you Lord my freedoms keep.
They'll all be gone before we wake. America has made a grave mistake.
Protect us from our stupidity; come resuscitate your family tree.
The bad guys think that they have won, but you O-Lord have just begun.
I raise my eyes up to the skies; seek only you, you tell no lies.
When Jesus rules, lies will cease to fool, led by God's own precious Jewel.
AMEN.
Sleep well, all those who feel they are owed something as entitlement, for the entitlements of this country is about to bury her.//as//
In Messiah, His Shalom, and forgiveness. Arley
Very nice poem Navy Blue, very deep and uplifting at the same time.
Here a dilly I made up for you. This is a progressive poem so feel free to add to it and leave room for others to add to it too.
This is the day we have waited for
The lines have been drawn and well take no more
Our weapons are powerful and spiritual, a sword
We come before our enemies in the name of our Lord
With God on our side and His Holy Spirit we are a woven cord
The day and hour has been declared and well not stop until all is restored
Ok a little cheesy I admit it but no less the battle cry
Once I hoped and I prayed that there would be a day That all my pain and my doubt, would simply turn about Then I saw my Creator come to me He gave me life, restored my mind, took the devils from my soul He took my sin upon the cross, to me there could not be a doubt That I will worship this man named Jesus Halejuyah, Holy is this man; Hallejuyah Holy is this man He is the man, who can, make your life complete He is the son of God , sent from Heaven above He took my sin's upon the cross, to me there could not be a doubt That I will worship this man named Jesus `He is G-d in this man named Jesus [This was part of a song I wrote, and sang in church worship years ago] .I used to sing worship in church, and on Christian radio,but I felt the air time took to many funds from the people,;and the pastor became without reproach, as myself a board member, and would not call on us for decisions. So I left the church, and stopped singing publically. Jesus made me withdraw myself,and I realized I almost didn't make the decision to object!;{ It became an obsession] It is easy to be sidetracked when you believe you are singing, and preaching to men for G-d, and it feels good! Now;instead, I sing, and pray to God for men! Jesus brought me to the realization, that it's not about me , it's about Him; The heart of worship!
Hope7, Shalom.
Let me see if I can contribute to your beginning:
This is the day we have waited for

Our weapons are powerful and spiritual, a sword
We come before our enemies in the name of our Lord
With God on our side and His Holy Spirit we are a woven cord
The day and hour has been declared and well not stop until all is restored
The plowshares all have been designed,
soon, all-out war we put behind.
The swords into the smelters go,
Heated red and starts to flow.
The molds will shape the tools we need,
thus crops we can the masses feed.
Oh Lord, we praise you corporately,
but each voice hear you singularly.
We send a penny valued love to you,
you send back tons of love so true.
Brothers, sisters all are we,
we have a giant family tree.
If only all would join the crowd,
our corporate voice would then be loud.
Hallelujah, Hallelu,
this is sung from us to you.
Hallelujah, Hallelu,
You Love us and we___ love____ you.
Hmmmm, my rhythm is a bit different than yours, but me-thinks we have a good start.
N E X T, out there. Come one, come all, join the song to God. We do not have to be perfect, as He hears the beauty of our hearts.
In Messiah, His Shalom, and melody. Arley

Let us see with open eyes the work that must be done al' round
and not forget to look beyond the here and now
When asked of God what we did to help those crying out for help
will we say we did not see them as in the field we plough
Shall we regret we did not stand but with a hoe in hand
when God has given us tools unlike any mortal man
Pray, we must and do and do some more we must not holdback
for when we stand before His thrown to answer him we will not lack
Unless we are still in the field with the dirt and the ground
doing work that will not last while the pearls lay still unfound
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTINUE THIS LITTLE DILLY. TO GOD BE THE GLORY.
I do agree with you that peace is best and I dont mean to sound rigid or uncompromising but in this case action is required. I also see that we are already at war whether or not it has been declared and we have many casualties. I see it as this , our way is the way of peace, until we have no choice but to help those who are perishing by the powers of darkness. It is not a war of might or brawn but as the word says....NOT BY POWER OR MIGHT BUT BY MY SPIRIT SAYS THE LORD......and that is how we must put on the full armor of God and do our jobs, not just in sewing peace, but in fighting the good fight against dark principalities and darkness and in that we are also sewing peace, are we not?
BROKEN GUITAR STRINGS
Now, Jesus came from afar,
To play lead guirtar.
Came to teach us a new song,
To undo the wrong.
To protect us through this strife,
And give us a new life.
Can we be playing this song,
Doing good when you've been wronged?
Giving your life for a friend,
Who'ld get you in the end?
Now I'm tired of living,
Too afraid to die.
So it's hard to play rythm,
What's feeling inside.
No one wants to play rhythm guitar for
Jesus.
It is not because they have lost the art.
No one wants to play rhythm guitar for
Jesus,
On the broken guitar strings of their heart.
Raymond
Lord I need your love
You can start a plant,
but you sure can't grow it.
You can say you truly love,
and then not show it.
It's ok to be angry,
My Lord at times was too.
Yet love's the real reason
He gave his life for you.
