Love Like Jesus

When Jesus was on earth as a man, He didn't stay away from those that needed Him most. He wasn't hiding in a building full of like-minded people; No, he was out in the streets, loving people wherever they stood, whether they be standing in the deepest "you know what" or not, He stood with them, accepting them for who they were, He didn't ask them to do what was right before He'd love them. He'd Love them so that they'd want to do what was right. I try my best to live that same way. You cant force discernment onto someone, they have to develop that within themselves with Gods' help. Denying them your love and presence simply because they aren't where you stand is wrong. No matter the circumstance. If only the world, Especially Christians, could follow in the footsteps of Christ and apply what they read in His word and sow only Love into peoples lives, the world would be a much more cohesive and beautiful place. One should never make someone feel less than or inferior to because they live differently. We are each at a different section of our journey with God. Whether you're at the starting point or have already reached the destination, you are one. One body of Christ, one family, and the Love shared between you should reflect that. 

Wind Song

The sound.... so sweet and clear
I hear melodic hymns
through the chaotic winds
that blow around me....
You are near.

Where I Am....

You love me, not at my best
Unlike all the rest 
You don't try and change me 
But rather gently shape me 
into the woman I was intended to be 
You come and meet me where I am
You don't ask me to climb mountains to be aloud in Your presence 
Whether in paradise or the slums 
You come to sit with me 
My personality isn't Yours but you don't mind
You find only the good in me 
and remind me of the things 
that are wonderful about who I am 
You're only interested in 
the characteristics that were handpicked by You 
before I even came to earth 
During my original birth 
You're only concern is bringing those to light 
Rather than my wrongs
You focus solely on what I do right 
That means so much to me 
that You can see past 
that which I lack 
And not attack me for being imperfect 
That You can see down deep.... 
way beneath the surface 
Into the little girl that's 
still developing 
who's still enveloped in 
all the madness of life 
who's yet to decide 
which path to take 
The careless heart that still makes mistakes 
but is trying her best 
And Yet, you Love me no less.....
Words cannot express my gratitude. 

Rest

My soul will rest in Your embrace
It is Your grace that carries me when I feel displaced
When I feel this place has gotten to be too much
It's Your touch upon my heart
Your presence, that is at the start of every smile on my face
You replace my pain with Joy
Anoint my head with oil
and I thank You for
all that You do
Your word is true
Everyone and everything around me may change....
but Your Word, Your Spirit, Your Love remains the same....
Forever and ever.

Light of The Stars

It's never fully dark
Even during the blackest night,
you still have the light of the stars....
Most of which are dead or dying
Remnants of their luminescence is flying
through space and time
But from this place, I find
I cannot tell which are perished or alive
They shine just the same to me....

Never Forget The Truth

Never Forget....
The day We let the planes hit
and kill our own citizens
Over some dividends
The governments' means to an end
To start a war the intent to find "weapons of mass destruction?"
or was it Oil production....?
Deception of the mind at its finest
A reflection of a time when the blindness of the public
was at its highest
They say ignorance is bliss
But I don't buy it.....
Freedom for the wise whose eyes stay open
Never Forget.....
Okay, I wont then.

Well

I don't write for you
I don't write for me
I write for Thee
The One who supplies these
words that seep from my veins
Spilling out of me
Like the blood of He
who knew no sin
Escaping from within my lungs
Like a once trapped breath
Like the only breath He had left
to say
"Forgive them...."
I've been given the gift of expression
And there's no way I'm going to let it
Die out
No. I wont let my Well dry out....

Thankful for Your gifts Lord. 

I promise not to hide them anymore. 

Your words are of no use trapped inside me. 

He who is set free is free indeed 

and I am free when I release what you've bestowed to me.

Genesis (With Me)

I've been known to stare at the moon
And gaze at the stars
Even before I knew You
I marveled at all You are
The tapestry that is our universe
Formed by Your words....
The vocalization of a single verse....
"Let There Be!"
And meticulously you positioned each piece
Breathed life into every being
I'm seeing all that are take place before my eyes
I'm mesmerized and humbled by
the fact that the same God whose behind
All of this magnificence
would even care to give
my life that same attention....
But here You are
with me as I gaze at the stars
and stare at the moon
Thank You.....

Marathon

Patience. 

That is my test. 

I'm being shaped for the best 

of my days... 

Wait, I say; on the Lord 

Endure. 

It's almost your time. 

Tracking....

Distraction is the enemy
Draining my sea of wisdom
My light is trapped like a Prism
Somewhere in between the sun and the clouds
All this dust surrounds me
and it drowns my vision
I rush to catch the beat
but I'm still searching for the rhythm....

Sunset

The glow of the Sun as she dips her rays into the horizon...

She seems to shine at her brightest just before night;

I find that quite reminiscent of Life - Brianna Colleen Carey © 

When you dont give ignorance or negativity the attention they seek, you starve them; thereby eradicating it from existence. Shine a light on ONLY the Light, and eventually that's all you'll see. We know that our world is shaped by what we see;
See Love, and Love will be present. See Hope, Hope will be present. See Kindness, Kindness will be present. Where you choose to shine the Light is what will be illuminated. Choose wisely." - Brianna Colleen Carey ©
