We believers rejoice when
We hear that the Lord
Jesus Christ is coming. The
Rapture of the Church will
Be sudden, like a blink of an
Eye and unannounced. The
Dead and those of us who
Are still living will be caught
Up in the air, the clouds, to
Be with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Then we’re taken to heaven to
Live with HIm forever. This
Glorious event could happen
At any moment, for we are
Now living in the end times.
Looking for that blessed hope–
Come, Lord Jesus Christ, come!
How about you and I go
Traveling the world on
A luxury ocean liner? What
A good way to relax and
see the sites. Stopping off
At different ports would
Be quite an experience.
Every cat needs attention
Even though they act
Standoffish. They will
Sit and stare at you for
Minutes at a time and
When you reach down
To pet them they swat
At you. But when they
Want something they’ll
Rub against your leg
And purr.
The archer stands at the edge
Of the forest looking out over
The field. The wind is blowing,
The birds are taking off from
The fields. A deer stands within
Range. But it’s not game he’s
Looking for, he’s looking for
His lost love.
The poet is lost, he wanders
All over town, even going
Out to the countryside. He
Is sure he has left something
Somewhere but forgot
Where. What the poet is
Looking for is the perfect
Word to finish his poem.
If you buy something valuable,
Like integrity, don’t sell it.
We’ll walk through the market,
Squeezing the melons, looking
For truth.
I have prayed some
Of my most heart
Felt prayers while
Driving on mountain
Roads looking down
Two or three hundred
Feet off the almost
Non-existent shoulder.
A sparrow falls
Through
Dawn-air-rain-
Looking hard,
Searching for
A perch.
Monday finally has arrived.
The wicked weekend has
Finally gone away and we
Can consider ourselves
Liberated. It’s going to be
A great week. No looking
At the calendar!
Once I had an opportunity
To ride in a Black Hawk
Helicopter for about two
Hours. I was strapped in
A seat next to an open
Door. The view was really
Spectacular. We were
Looking for equipment
Lost in trees by the troops.
I could have done this all
Day!
