I have a great calling!
And to whom much is given, much is certainly required. You see, I have fared that ministry is a lifestyle that goes beyond commonality. My lot has been cast by God. It has fallen on perfect sides. I get what I am suppose to everyday, because He is just in all His ways. It is very fortunate to be in the will of God. the perfect will of the Almighty. I go through cycles daily. I am limited but am connected to resourceful Master. So why do I fret? many troubles and  challenges come my way; "to the one who overcomes." it says. That's the song they sang. "happy is the man," he wrote by wisdom. Then with his next breath he cried out in agony. all go through cycles, daily. We're not "all" so different. I'm just acknowledging that I need help, encouragement, guidance, wisdom, strength, discipline and much  much more. Sometimes I think ans say, "When will my blessing come?" Well, I woke up, I know and I am known by Him. Then I was reminded by a mom, the very words of scripture tattooed on my chest, Proverbs 30:7-9(look it up)...
My lot has been cast by God. It has fallen on perfect sides.
Pray for me.

Summers Sixth

None are so worthy of such a great testimony
All bear the same
Thou a different examples and measures of grace
The same truth remains
CHRIST Saved Me

Summers Fifth

Yesterdays Trials
I wanna be, filled up until I'm overflowing
But as a kid I almost drowned a few times
When God pours, sometimes I spill on purpose

I want to be strengthened
But I seen a tension cord snap once
So when God stretches me I ease up a bit

I want to be taught
But people who think  they're smart are often stupid
So at times I choose to get distracted

I wanna persevere no quitting
But once I seen a person pass out
So I take breaks to balance me out

I want, but don't get
And I know so I'm saddened
Remembered the book of James
The LORD said, "Stop , just let it happen"

Summers fourth poem

What a day I say

Look at what i gave up

The real deal shows true colors; no rainbow

Pulled my hat down, don't look me in the eyes

I want to cry but it's not worth tears

I quit smoking cuz it's not worth years

I quit sexxin cuz I learned hard lessons that it's not worth attachments

Stopped holding grudges cuz I want to have peace

hate telling lies, I just want to be me

Chose faith I needed to be saved

Follow Christ because I need to know the way

Either all the prayers are not heard or I'm just doing wrong

Selling books is so hard it's got me writing new songs

And poems
