The Great Guardian

-

There was once a time where death was nothing


Where fear and lies were the only lies


Where hope was never lost or fragile


Where hate was the only thing that dies


Those times are gone, the world was broken


By serpent's tongue and human folly


The gates to hell were swung wide open


Where hate became a ruthless bully


That moment when death entered in


To a realm designed to be divine


Our safety broke by dragon's sin


We wait for God's fulfilled design


In our wait, we anticipate


The death of death and the fate of hate


While we wait, we place our faith


In a strong guardian so great


His sword like flame


Cuts through our shame


And vanquishes the one to blame


His shield he wields


Makes our safety sealed


From foes around our battlefield


This guardian is who I trust


He guides me through both ash and dust


The great guardian


Has no near peer


He leaves my enemies in fear


He walks with me


He talks with me


He'll guide me 'till the final year.

No One is a Lost Cause

     There is not a single human being on the planet who is a lost cause. There is hope for anyone and everyone who still draws breath in this world. Even into eternity and the realm of God there is always hope and mercy to be found for those who lost so much and had such misfortune or detriment fall upon them in life. Jesus is the great rescuer of the lost. The great savior of sinners and broken people. The great returner of broken dreams.       To Jesus, there is no such thing as a lost cause, a hopeless case, or an impossible situation.  Even though people lose hope sometimes and sink into despair, eternity and the Kingdom of God is a place where hope never dies and the lost are found eternally, never to be lost again.  With God, all things are possible, and all those lost are findable.       Jesus specializes in the mending broken hearts and broken dreams, and eternity is a long time to have dreams fulfilled and rest i...

The Fortress of Neptune

-

Some people strive to turn their mind into a fortress—a Stoic "inner citadel," an impenetrable bastion of psychological and spiritual security that no danger or enemy can conquer or destroy. It’s a noble and intriguing endeavor, turning your mind into a fortress. But for myself? I would forgo the citadel and instead transform my mind into a bottomless ocean. An unfathomably deep ocean that I can retreat into, like a submarine capable of withstanding the abyssal depths. The further down you descend into this ocean, the more untouchable and unreachable you become to your enemies. It is the mental "Fortress of Neptune." Where a bottomless ocean of living water and living thoughts serves to be my impenetrable Fortress and infinite Bastion. If a bottomless ocean is my Fortress, what could destroy me? A bottomless ocean of thought and ideas. A bottomless ocean of psychological and spiritual security—indestructible and unconquerable. It’s hard to conquer an ocean and impos...

The Liberating Flood of God's Countless Words

-

"Verbum Liber" Words will Liberate.        In the beginning, humanity was imprisoned—not by chains, but by ideas. These ideas had taken root in the minds and hearts of people, twisting their perception of reality and binding them to illusions of fear, hatred, and ignorance. The world had grown dark, and though it was teeming with knowledge, people had become slaves to their own limited thinking. They were caught in endless cycles of conflict, driven by falsehoods and misguided beliefs that obscured the truth of existence. Amidst this darkness, God looked upon His creation with a heart full of compassion. He saw the bondage of the human mind, the way ideas had parasitically latched onto every thought, controlling and distorting the reality of those He loved so deeply. And so, He decided to act. He opened the storehouse of His infinite mind, where countless words swirled and danced, each one carrying within it an entire universe of meaning. These words were not just sy...
