Seasons of My Life

By Ricky Clemons

My poetry is all about my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who I love to give all the glory and praise to each and every day. These inspiring poems encourage me to hold onto Jesus in these tough times that we are living in.

I hope and pray that my poems will lift you up in the Lord to help you to keep your eyes on Him who can relate to whatever you and I go through in this life. My poetry is meant to help you see that I need Jesus just like you.

There is so much beautiful poetry in the bible that King David wrote to encourage us to put our hope in God, who loves poetry.

When God created heaven and earth, it sounds like poetry in the book of Genesis.

I hope that the wisdom and knowledge that I have to share with you will bless you to hold onto Jesus Christ, who is the light of the world. You can discern my poems to be true or false, if you study the scriptures.The Lord has blessed me to publish this book and I will never claim to know all things. What I do know is what I believe and what I go through in my life. I can only hope that you can relate to me in my poetry about the Lord.My talent in writing is down-to-earth and simple enough for a child to understand. God’s Word has many down-to-earth scriptures that are easy to understand and live by.I hope that you will find in my book things that will help you to have a closer walk with the Lord. My poems are based on my experiences and I hope you can relate to them, which will help me to know that I am not alone in my search to find my Lord, Jesus Christ, who is all about saving souls.I love to exhort the Lord’s holy name in poetry because Jesus Christ is worthy to sit on the throne of my soul every day and every night.

The Glory and Praise

Many people will get out of debt and will give money the glory and praise while they live.

Jesus blessed them to work and get out of debt that is running to and fro throughout the land

Many people will give medicine the glory and praise after they get well, when Jesus spared their life to make a way for them to take the medicine and stay well day after day.

Many people will give man the glory and praise for saving their life, when it was Jesus Christ our Lord who gave them life, health and the strength to save lives.

So many people are going to the grave being lost in their sins for not giving Jesus Christ the glory and praise during their lives.

Many people are living well with money and health and won’t give Jesus any glory and praise.

Jesus gives breath to all to live above the deep pits of death

All the glory and praise belongs to Jesus, who will never do us wrong.

I Am Here

I am here in my moment in time that the Lord gives to me to search and find Him with all my heart.

I am here in the land of the living in the new year that the Lord has given to me according to his will.

I am here, existing above the grave because Jesus gave me a chance to be saved in him, who knows better than anyone else why I am here.

I am here to love and obey Jesus, whose all seeing eyes will watch over my soul on my good days and bad days.

I am here because of Jesus Christ, who I can always pray to and get a peace of mind

To know why I am here, existing from birth to this day that will go away

Why I am here to be destined to be saved or lost, that is my free will choice that Jesus gave to me.

I am still here to choose to worship Jesus and keep his ten golden rules, making my destiny sure for heaven.

I am here to do God’s will and not my own will that has no power to make me be here.

Life comes from Jesus, who paid my price to save me from my sins.

Like a Dream

The hard times that we’ve been through are like a dream that passes through the night and fades away so as it seems in the early morning sunlight.

Jesus Christ can lead our dreams into his resting place where life is more abundant.

What we go through is like a dream that Jesus can pass away in the night.

Hours of our trials can cause you and me to spiritually sleepwalk away from Jesus, who will forever be our Lord and Savior.

The Lord rules over dreams to set us free from nightmares that can kill us dead if we don’t trust Jesus and obey Him.

He will lead us and guide us through all the things that we go through.

Life will only be like a dream that will come and go away from you and me, thanks to Jesus who won’t let the dreams hang around us and get us down, especially not on His holy ground.

All I Have to Do

All I have to do is sit back and see your power, O Lord, working its way through every second, minute, and hour of the day and night.

All I have to do is to sit back and see your power, O Lord, moving through people’s lives being attacked by things that will fail them

Your power, O Lord, is sure protection for all who will do Your holy will day after day.

All I have to do is to sit back and see Your power, Lord Jesus, setting the captives free.

To love and obey you with a whole heart, all I have to do is sit back and see your power, O Lord, that will chew up and spit out selfishness.

Your righteousness does no one wrong under the sky and beyond the sky.

All I have to do is see your power, O Lord, doing what I can’t do and preparing me to be saved before I die.

Your power will raise me from the dead to get my reward.

All I have to do is see your power, O Lord, bringing the church to one accord.

The Truth Can Hurt Sometimes

The truth can hurt sometimes, but a lie can always hurt us and can blind our eyes to not see the truth that is Jesus.

Jesus will never hurt our hearts with His holy word that you and I can always trust to set us free from lies that can always hurt us.

The truth can hurt if we are living our lives in sin that Jesus paid for on the cross with the price that we cannot pay for our sins.

Our sins are telling lies to us each and every day.

Even a fool wouldn’t doubt the truth will set him free.

Jesus never told lies to anyone when he lived on earth and died to save souls from being lost in the devil’s lies.

The truth can hurt us and set us free from lies that can come into the church.

We Can’t Point Our Finger

We can’t point our finger at people’s open sins that we see day after say.

We may have some secret sins, so we should not point our finger at other people’s open sins.

Sin is sin to Jesus, who once lived without sin in this world.

Only He is worthy to point His finger at our sins, no matter who we are or where we live.

That doesn’t matter to Jesus, who sees every open and secret sin each and everyday upon the land of the living.

We are not worthy to point our finger at people sins.

A sinner can repent and get full of the power of the Holy Spirit and love Jesus and keep his commandments of love.

You and I have sins, whether they’re open or secret.

The devil, who has no power over our free will, wants us to point at one another.

Only Jesus can cleanse our sins non-stop.

God is Not a Man

God is not a man.

God’s Son became a sinless man, to redeem man back to God so that man can be saved and go to heaven to be with God forever and ever.

Adam did depart from God, who is not a man.

Many people will look at a man like he’s a god living in this world.

Sin could not enter into the sinless man, Jesus Christ, who came to this world to represent God for man to know that God loves man.

Man is not God.

God is so holy, perfect, righteous, forgiving and omnipotent above man.

Man is not God.

God is love and all-powerful and without sin.

Man is not love when God is love giving love to man.

No man, woman, boy or girl is God.

Man is meant to worship God.

Can Get All Things Done

Money can get a lot of things done.

The Lord can get all things done that money can’t do upon the land.

Education can get a lot of things done.

The Lord can get all things done that education can’t do in this world.

Skills can get a lot of things done.

The Lord can get all things done that skills can’t do from sun up to sun down.

Helping hands can get a lot of things done.

The Lord can get all things done and not leave anything out of his blessings.

The Lord helps the helping hands to help others move on in life and greatly step out to do much better in life.

Love can get a lot of things done.

The Lord is love from heaven above and gets all things done for us.

We can never get enough of what Jesus can do for us, he will never run out of good things to get all good things done.

I Know That I Can

I know that I can easily fall into the devil’s temptation on any day.

I know that I am not better than anyone who can easily fall into the devil’s temptations.

Jesus Christ, our Lord, overcame all of the devil’s temptations with power and glory given to him.

He helps me not to fall into the devil’s temptations that are around twenty-four hours around the clock.

I need Jesus to give me the strength to not think impure thoughts that will surely do my mind so wrong each and every day.

The devil will try to cause me to sin against Jesus, who says, If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

The devil also knows but cannot keep me from Jesus, who gave me a cross to carry in the price he
