The Clay

CATEGORY

Good morning Jesus, I am sitting deep in thought, I so often wonder what it is I am doing, I get up with you on my heart and lay down with you on my heart, but so many days I lack direction when that is all I want.

Lord I don’t need any more than you provide for me even thought I might desire way more than I have. I don’t have anything to complain about, I want to know what it is you desire from me, So many wait for the tragedy to seek your face, when seeking your face prevents the tragedy, I have a testimony, I wake up to one every time you allow me another sunrise. When I open my eyes and peer into a ceiling, walk to a refrigerator filled to the brim with food, flush my toilet and get in my car and drive off to a job. When I can call and hear my children’s voice, that alone is a reason to rejoice, to have bother parents know you are real and to have my siblings to grow up with still, I am blessed, I am blessed in the fact that I can see hear taste feel and understand your presence.

My nightmares are not even a selection to forget because they brought me closer to you. Not a story I would forgo, I need every moment, because you walked with me through in spite of them all and refused to let go.

Jesus I can’t say thank you enough, the battle with you made the war seem oh so tough, only for those walking without you would deem it as rough, these that failed to understand that you are the God of More than enough. Healing when killing and stealing knock at the door, I can be brave in the journey because you are the God of more. I want to be what it is your purpose proclaims. Your spirit co-mingled with my soul is what my heart craves, to walk with you in your glory where I lift up your name, Please Jesus hear my cries, hear my travail. Help me to be helpful, I have no desire to fail. I need more than the more of you, I need the Father and Holy Spirit too. I need the unity for the unity in me, I need to be saturated by your blood to be free, I need a vision, some words, any part of your heart, I want to be your greatest work of Art, please make me over, one stroke at a time, I am willing to be whatever you need Lord, I submit to your design…..

Make me Over, said the Clay to the Potter

The Culture of a Black man

I send this to every culture. One race is defined by many cultures, governed by one God. Because many can not comprend that to raise the Sun takes effort. It takes fortitude to manage the intent of Royalty as we that parent them must stay engaged. It takes a purely unclogged mind to attempt the journey that is their struggle every day. Yet when we shadow thier world with blatant not trues we fail to prepare them to move safely in this world where fear is wore as a medallion to those who fail to understand a male that is born black ?? is running a different type of race. To simplify the purpose of his existence is to push them out into this prevalence unpredictable to what is possible where the bar is set so statuesque that the ceiling that is glass is an illusion where eyes closed while opened convince them that they are okay. Potential is invisible, as unthought when the advantage is all but hidden because the try was just too hard. We don't raise them Kings as ...

New Mercy every morning

Vision. What is it you see within you. lets begin again. If mercy is new every morning so are you. Why hit rock bottom when a reset is all one needs. Living clean and sober is a choice so we dont catch repeat. Its hard living life feeling incomplete. Its Like waking up to the same old song. Feeding demons because that one time we got it wrong. If God says we'll be okay. Its just a matter of changing direction to find an alternative way. So take the skills that make you great as your gift make room so the bible says and just make it through to another day and in the adversity you'll learn to pray. Mercy is new every morning it comes as the day is dawning. A clean slate where one can try again. Just make it through the night my friend. You can make it. You got this. Message me, we can talk about it...

WAKE ME UP! Please

I feel so alone laying next to you. Waking up to another nightmare where promises weigh me down like a boulder on my neck, it has me praying for the silence that is a companion to death. Words can not describe the dread that sits at my feet, the emptiness that represents my thoughts and drain my energy. Swollen eyes slightly ajar decorate my face which is without Emotion as time has removed the color for remorse to take its place. The disguise I wear takes every bit of me, itâ€™s distorted what remains and blinded me too a fantasy. It is remiss to compare a fairytale to a nightmare as they both are thought imagined yet they both will have us scared. Both have a hero both a villain too, both youâ€™ll awaken yet more often itâ€™s starts a dream till itâ€™s the nightmare that reign true.Â Wake me up! Please, wake me upâ€¦ Â

31

Someone to aspire too.. on a scale of 1 to 10. I say 31, because proverbs 31 for females give us a place to begin. She is too the imagination the description of every woman from within. She is mother and wife, sister and friend, she is the essence of femininity her titles have no end. If it can be achieved she'll strive for the win, her goals are accomplishments that make those idle moments feel like sin. She is a greeter, that only retreats as a design, She will change her lane to complete the desires of her mine. She is a master that is making the rules. By extension of her values her virtue a tool. Trend setting her image as we do as she would as the example of femininity is her primary mood. A goal is a thought that we desire a dream yet she is more than the moment, she is the extreme. If a man finds her, the world she will lay at his feet and until you realize you are her, you're far from complete. It's not a goal, it's a mind set. When we set our minds to get it, the word goa...

Open the door

Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Just open the door. God came to be the more. He is the God that fully restores. So you wonder what it is to have a friend, a true friendship begins in him, he himself is the door that God subscribed to end man's war. the war we fight of not flesh and blood but spirits that came to conquer love. love is he that sent his son to sacrifice the only begotten one. the one that stayed upon the cross to close the gap in creating a direct path to the father by his son and the holy spirit embraced it all, he came to be a help so God's children had assistance should they fall. Gods knows mistakes will be made an expect us to request forgiveness when we mishave. he knows we will fall down at times but to stay there is not the choice to be made at anytime. We grow in what we do not know but it is to open the door where we begin ...

What to pray

We need Jesus as he is the door. Yet God the holy spirit and he are one connect forever like the sea hitting the sand when meeting the shore. I am sure that I thank daily Jesus for his sacrifice but I thank God for everything else in my life. I thank him for allowing Jesus to step into man's war. I thank him for his example, I thank him for being the door. but then I walk in to the presence of God and I thank him Yahweh for giving Jesus that job. I thank God for being the light, for the very clarity he brings, I thank and praise him, our father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name. This is the old testament and nothing has changed. There was God prior to Jesus being claimed. The holy spirit I mention to but God he gives the utterance so we know what to do. I ask him to give me the heart and mind to pray. I also ask him to give me the right words to say. I ask him for guidance as well as for grace, and when confused I pray the Lord's Prayer as I am always seeking his face.

I am staying

If I could but read your mind. What would it cost me to slow down time to relive a moment of kindness, to know what makes you smile. What color would we paint the rainbow if God allowed us to peek at the past. Would we take for granted what we already have. If I could run along side the words of history before they were born would I appreciate the presence of once empty arms. What would I change to forgo my fame which is an illusion created by the completely insane. What rules would I break for choices of my own where colors are for crayons and cculture negates words. Thinking this way isn't the same when considering we call his name. Nevertheless never taking anything back because looking back with no possibility of you is a reality that takes the breath of me. I can't breath. Exhale breath. So I stay where I am at

Please to meet you

If you ever get the opportunity to meet me it's not by chance. It means God's got something extraordinary for you. I am the match to ignite your flame. We are about to take this flicker and set the world on fire, we are together about to bring about the apocalypse. I can attest to the change, when you touch a miracle you become a miracle. Are you ready that's the question. It comes with much responsibility, are you ready to burn the state of this world down. God is coming soon and nothing is a coincidence it's just time to learn to stand our ground. Please to meet

Question, How did God bless you today

He did way more for me than one, wo how can I count the ways. He woke me up, he allowed me to stand, I took a step and then another. I felt him take my hand. I found clothes in my closet and they where clean. I had water to wash my body, found toothpaste to brush my teeth, put up my hair, stepped out my door in my health, well God's health with his help. I know you feel just what I mean. Had breakfast, got in a car, purchased coffee at a store, walked into a job, watched, laughed enjoyed my coworkers, heared a conference, held a conversation, called my children, played on my phone, prayed for you, opened a once closed door. Sang a song, wrote words on my own, refusing to take the little things for granted, I responded to this comment creating a poem. I had dinner, set in the jacuzzi, realizing many didn't wake up, and more woke to life forever changed because they went to bed heathly it seemed yet they opened thier eyes to darkness never knowing love. Never to taste again full of ...

Commitment

Commitment: Can I get you to make me a promise? Can I get you to see passed the undertaking of my hearts desires?

I promise you love and devotion, which by today’s society is far from the norm. In becoming attentive to the needs of others, one can cause self-harm.

My loyalty is more than the trust that I extent to the dedication called us.

Faithfulness is the underdog of fidelity when adherence is no longer a must.

My resolve said you are worth the time sacrificed, but do I take what is given at the cost of a life.

We were supposed to walk as one, an allegiance standing its ground, refusing to retreat.

However the bond that brought us back to heel was a facility to the pain, which was real.

Your pledge an oath told to the old that promised fairytales to the very young, was the contract that promised mystic retreats had me rethinking the pact that you had made with me.

So many decisi...
