Upgrade Of Love

He almost had me right in the palm Of his hand

But in those last seconds of surrender I turned away from him

Something just didn’t sit right with me about him

He was like that 

He could seduce me without touching

One darkly look filled with so much sugar 

That I would become diabetic and dependent upon him

I never really liked playing games

But somehow I became a main character In this farce that he liked to call a relationship

I knew he could not fulfill me

That he was not the one to complete me

But the view from his eyes was the only thing That I wanted to see 

He misled me without even trying

He enticed me into dying 

And as I bled out my God-given light

He wrecked havoc in my life with tremendous might 

No midnight dances were reserved anymore for me 

My enslavement had begun so he left me with a dark destiny

He gave not a word of farewell or a sweet whisper goodnight 

I was lost in confusion and in mistrust of the light 

But from that very same light That I was told to run away from 

I heard a warm voice beckon to me,

I can save your life...Come, child, come!

And as I walked away from my first love 

And the memories of the great friends we had been 

I rejoiced in the presence of my new love, Jesus 

While leaving the embrace of my former partner, Sin...

Breaking Heart

My heart has been handled

By so many dirty hands

That even I don’t want to touch it

My faith in love has been tested

And I have never been introduced

To the teacher

But I know I want to fire them

For giving a pop quiz

When I couldn’t even understand

The study materials

So weary of falling prey

To the heart hunters out there

But I try so hard to pray

For disguise and protection

Without deluding myself and losing myself

Along the way

Sometimes I wish I could mail my heart away

To a far off place somewhere

To keep it from ever breaking again

Crowned Ones

A Crown symbolizes kingship, rulership, Royalty....

to rule over something or someone;

to Crown means to offer, to lift up....

Adam and Eve were offered a crown 

but through a simple conversation, simple disobedience

their crown was stripped away and mankind's destiny

was changed forever...

No longer exalted Stewards or Kings of the earth,

we became disconnected, cut off from God's presence,

no longer sharing in HIS Divinity,

our life spans were shortened 

until Jesus came and reminded us 

that we were created in God's image 

and that means we were created to Rule...

and we became the Crowned Ones

Many stumbling around under the weight

of depression and despair

but that's the crown

that they choose to wear

Disconnected, torn apart

from the Godhead three,

Lies and Deception blinding them,

Denying them the right to Eternity

HE was the Only One

who could take the Sting of Death

and the Grip of Sin,

face them down,

humiliatingly suffer and rise again

HE is worthy to wear the Crown of Heaven and Earth

In the end season, wintertime

the media crowns a heavyweight man

in a red and white suit with glory,

but we who know the world's True Story

know that Only One qualifies to wear the Crown...

HE wasn't given a physical symbol of power

while HE trod this dusty rock we call Earth

for those who recognized HIS Divinity,

they also could see HIS royalty

through the layers of flesh HE chose to wear...

HIS royal procession into the city was witnessed

by people of a common nature

and not the elite of high society...

Our humble Ruler riding on a common donkey

instead of a wealthy carriage fit for a king...

HE is nothing like any king before

or ever will be

HE doesn't need to come all Loud and Grand

with Pomp and Ceremony

or with extensive media coverage and radio time slots

this king moves quietly yet powerfully

in the hearts of those who allow HIM in...

HIS policies are implemented throughout the world

through HIS chosen people:

those who Crown HIM with devotion,

with praise, with obedience, with worship,

with honour and glory, with trust, with faith,

those who Crown HIM with Love...
