“He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.” ~ Colossians 1:17

 

Precious are the moments

I share with You,

Savoring Your every word,

Delighting in all You do.

 

Timeless are the treasures

You share with me,

Refreshing my soul,

Whispering of eternity.

 

Luminous is the light

On my path You shine,

Paving every step

With Your love divine.

 

Radiant are the riches

Upon me You shower,

Reminding me always

Of grace and power.

 

Sweet are the skies

That You paint above

With clouds dancing freely

In timeless love.

 

Yes, precious and timeless,

Luminous and sweet,

Are the blessings I find

As I kneel at Your feet.

 

For everything is Yours,

All is under Your reign,

So in Your presence

All good things I gain.

 

The loveliest gift

Is the life You give,

You poured of Yourself

That I would live.

 

So I sing of treasures

You share with me,

I praise Your Name

For all eternity.

 

Yes, Jesus, I rejoice

In all I have in You;

You are my inspiration,

The joy in all I do!

Open Your Eyes Christian Poem

“Ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.” ~ Job 12:7-10

 

Look at the birds,

What do you see?

Do you appreciate a dance

Orchestrated by Me?

 

Listen closely to the sea,

What do you hear?

Do you sense My symphony

Splashing ever clear?

 

Breathe deep in the garden,

What do you smell?

Do you taste Heaven

More than words tell?

 

Embrace the sunshine,

What do you feel?

Do you experience love

Ever perfect, ever real?

 

Yes, look and listen closely,

Breathe, feel and taste,

Let no precious moment

Ever go to waste.

 

For all around you,

In each and every thing,

Are wondrous windows

To my endless blessing.

 

I love you immeasurably,

So My gifts abound;

Open your eyes to miracles

Unfolding all around.

 

Listen closely to the sea,

Be still to hear

My sweet eternal symphony

Splashing ever clear.

 

And as the birds dance,

Delight in what you see,

For these gifts, My child,

Open your eyes to Me.

“We love because he first loved us.” ~ 1 John 4:19

 

Smiling so wide,

Singing so free,

Delighting so deep

In Your love for me,

 

Dancing for joy,

Clapping with praise,

Marveling Your grace

Abounding always,

 

Sharing with love,

Speaking of You,

In all I do.

Why this sweet delight

Filling my heart

Through day and night?

 

Because You, my Jesus,

Love me so;

Everywhere I look

Your love does show.

 

In the birds flying,

In the waves crashing,

In the rainbow stretching,

In the stream splashing,

 

Yes, everything ‘round

Shows me Your love

Flowing forever

From Heaven above.

 

So I dance for joy,

I clap with praise,

I marvel Your grace

Now and always.

“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.” ~ Psalm 139:14

 

A treasure you are,

Yea, a treasure you are to me,

Open your eyes, My child,

I will let you see:

 

More valuable to Me

Than all stars in the sky,

Lovelier to Me

Than mountains stretching high;

 

More beautiful to Me

Than flowers of the fields;

More radiant to Me

Than light the sun yields.

 

Yes, a treasure you are,

This, child, please know;

I will wrap you in My care

Every step you may go.

 

Do not worry,

Do not let your eyes tear,

Embrace My love,

Do not ever fear.

 

For if you are to Me

Worth many a sparrow,

Will I not provide for you

On My straight and narrow?

 

As You are more valuable

Than all stars in the sky,

Lovelier to Me

Than mountains stretching high;

 

Yea, a treasure you are,

A treasure you are to me;

Look in My eyes, child,

There My love you will see!

Poem: Autumn Glory

Poem: Autumn Glory

Christian Poem Autumn Glory

“He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding…” ~ Daniel 2:21

 

Chills on my skin,

I feel an Autumn breeze,

Red, gold and orange

Glow upon the trees.

 

The air is crisp,

Refreshing to breathe in,

Excitement stirs in my heart

As starts a new season.

 

Lord Jesus, I marvel

The rhythm You create,

Surely but a glimpse

Behind Heaven’s gate.

 

With perfection and beauty

The seasons do dance;

Each one has its glory,

Each one its chance.

 

So amidst these changes,

As trees are cloaked in glory,

I remember all is Yours,

Your unfolding story.

 

The refreshing air,

The trees of red and gold,

Sing a song of Your love,

Extending from days of old.

 

The cool Autumn air

I delight to breathe in;

Excitement stirs in my heart

As starts a new season.

 

Yes, my Lord Jesus,

As I feel an Autumn breeze,

The glory of Your presence

Brings me to my knees!

Autumn glory displays God’s artistic love! How do you celebrate the seasonal changes and – most of all – the Savior who creates them?

“Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble.” ~ 1 Peter 3:8

 

Come now, my friend,

Listen with me:

Do you hear that song

In the sway of the tree?

 

Do you feel that joy

In the bird’s sweet song?

Do you see eternity

In fields wide and long?

 

Do you taste Heaven

In warming sun rays? 

Do you feel excitement

On unfolding pathways?

 

Come now with me,

These blessings let us savor;

They are priceless gifts,

Signs of God’s favor.

 

 

Let us sing to Him

A song heartfelt and sweet,

For His love is in all

Whom we see and meet.

 

 

Let us dance with delight

In fields wide and long;

Let us harmonize happily

With the bird’s song.

 

 

Yes, come now, my friend,

Celebrate with me:

Forever we are Jesus’,

Yes, for all eternity!

Guest Post: The Trust Shelter

Poetic Guest Post by Pastor FS Bhatti

 

Pastor FS Bhatti of theTrust Shelter, based in Pakistan, has been working for Lord Jesus Christ for last twelve years on arranging free summer Bible Camps, seminars and conferences for spiritual development. The Trust Shelter blesses others spiritually, morally, and ethically in order to be confident in faith and in order to stand for the Lord’s second coming. Pastor Bhatti shares spiritual poetry in the guest post below. Pastor Bhatti also translates books from English to Urdu for easy understanding in Pakistan. Please visit the Trust Shelter for ministry and translation services at http://shelterorgpak.weebly.com/.

 

Poem “Deception” written  By Pastor FS Bhatti
Purpose of Delilah  Blinding but deceiving
Purpose of world  Greening garden but deceiving  
Purpose of Jacob Receiving but deceiving
Purpose of Jezebel   Believing but deceiving
Purpose of Robber on Cross  Believing but receiving
Purpose of Prince of peace Seeding but bleeding 

 

Critical Summary of Poem “Deception” 
•    It is famous story of Old Testament “Samson and Delilah” How she did come purposely to “Samson” to deceive and she blinded his eyes for anger of his mother and king.  •    The world shows green garden first of all but inwardly deceive.  •    Jacob, Brother of Esau, Isaac loved Esau but his mother loved Jacob, she prepared him to deceive his father and his brother Esau to get blessing of his father Isaac.   •    Jezebel spirit is in Revelation of St. John in New Testament, spiritual polluted women who believes but deceives like Ahab’s of old testament had same belief  •    Along with Jesus there was two more cross, on both were robbers and murderers, one of Robber accepted Jesus Christ as King by believing and receiving paradise by faith on cross at that moment.  •    Prince of peace, Lord of Lords and King of Kings is title of Lord Jesus Christ who came according to prophesies of prophets into this world for sinner and wrecked lives. In His holy love sow seeding righteousness in this world but he was crossed for not mixing up with world under their controls of that system. He did sow seeds of righteous, liberty, love, forgiveness. But he himself is blooded on cross without any sin and mistakes. 

 

 

Poem “Hope” is written By Pastor FS Bhatti 
In world of trouble where no hope In world of depression where no rope In world of blood shed where non stop In world of friendship where is loop In front of brutality  Where always loop, cop In world of hopelessness Where always stop     In world of Jesus Christ  Where always hope, rope

 

 

Critical Summary of Poem “Hope”  •    After sin of Eve, wife of Adam because of Satan, there was troubles every where. Adam had been separated from presence of God. Earth had been cursed because of their sin. Satan is trouble shooter in the garden through Adam and Eve until today. There had been no hope.  •    Without God, this world is place of demons every where, full of depression. Rope symbolize mediator who can help Adam again to come into presence of God.  •    Because of cursed earth of whole world, first murdered of Abel took place by Cain. God spoke with Cain from heaven; blood of your brother is calling ME from earth. Where is your brother what Cain said, I am not responsible of him. Then blood shed had been continual until today as non stop.  •    Friendship is precious gifts of God who had sincere heart for other friend like Jesus Christ who shed his holy blood for us, but it become loop with selfishness as written Micah 7: 5 •    In front of brutality in this world, no one can escape from loop and cop.  •    During 4000 years, God had been sending prophet in this world to warn and alert people from sinful world and destruction even in age of Noah whole world had been destroyed with hopelessness because of their sins. God always stopped on sin to bless the world.  •    In world of Jesus Christ, where is hope and rope. From First Adam, sin came into this world and separation of man and God but second Adam, Jesus Christ brought salvation and reconciliation man to God as mediator into this world, and we all find in Christ hope and rope in presence of Holy creator God. 

 

Poem “Find the Mind” is written by Pastor FS Bhatti
When multitudes of thought  come in mind
Root of causes which blinds the mind 
Spirit and Flesh are different  which rewinds opposite find 
Which rewinds mind patient of physiology blind?
Which rewinds mind nature of person find
Nature of person finds where regrets bind
Which remind thoughts? These rewinds opposite find
Sheep is lost in darkness but found in Savior’s find

 

  

 

 

Poem “Is evil, good” written

by Pastor FS Bhatti

 

King’s blood shed

then why evil is head

 

Health came on sick bed

Then why head is red

 

Sadness into happiness of bud

But why innocent’s blood shed

 

Dark of wickedness is like mud

Then why evil is head

 

Who make good as an evil?

Then why evil is head

 

 

Poem “Storm” written by Pastor F S Bhatti
Storm fear in the river hope  rear but in shiver faith  tear but  the leaver  mountain bear but in shiver woke up Dear but deliver  storm sear of unbeliever sever

 

 

Poem “Voice of voiceless” written  By Pastor FS Bhatti 
Christ is the voice of voiceless His blood is the price of priceless 

His word is the sight of sightless

Everlasting hope of hopeless Sound for soundless Ground for groundless 

Bound limit as limitless 

Lost but found from Mess  

 

Poem “Feeling” written By Pastor FS Bhatti
Feeding or feeling of what kind Seeding or weeding of what mind Wheeling or reeling but what rewind Heeding or reading but what bind Steeling but dealing of what blind weeping with deeding of what find Vicious has no peace of what wind

 

Poem “Grace” written  By Pastor FS Bhatti 
How beloved are to whom you trace But I am nothing without your grace Royal family of Christ is my trace  I will be base having your lace. Hope of eternal life is your grace  Life of the children is my base  But I am broken vessel of race

 

 

 

Poem “Fight” written  By Pastor FS Bhatti 
Life spent in fighting of faith  Life spent in biting of bait  Don’t know where fate is     

Pain in heart of eternal life  But fighting again fighting 

Biting again biting  Don’t know when without plight

But with faith in His might  on wrong path how i am right on right path

Jesus is in sight
