      .About the Author

      For my Great Grandpa, George Albigence Pierce

      Who passed down his love of poetry

      And especially for my family,

      Who faithfully provide the rhyme and reason in my life.

      Who Is He?

      He is What He is

      There was no cause that brought Him into existence

      No event that foreshadowed His being

      No power that unstopped his ears or opened His eyes

      He has always been, all knowing, all seeing

      He is an ungoverned God

      Sadly for many, unknown

      He is powerful, sovereign, but chooses to love us

      Guiding us in Christ’s Spirit, to become full grown

      He is a faithful and unchanging God

      Our shepherd, our way, our gate

      Totally Holy and justified

      Trust Him now to lovingly secure your eternal fate.

      Everything Belongs to God

      It all belongs to God!

      How long I struggled with that in my heart

      My pride and self importance

      Refused to relinquish my part

      My accomplishments and possessions

      We’re only partly due to Him

      Some had come to me through my hard work

      Some were just coveted and bought on a whim

      How foolish was this perspective

      His ownership not to recognize

      The universe is His to rule

      From largest mountain to things infinitesimal in size

      And speaking of things of tiny size

      My understanding was just as
