Rise From The Ashes

One step at a time I take towards the light.
I hear a voice calling out for salvation and rest.
It is a soothing voice that speaks with divine truth.
I cannot turn away from it anymore.
It is a familiar voice I once heard over and over again.
I had often strayed away from it for far too long. 
I start to take another step closer to that voice of truth.
No more turning back, so here I go.
As I wearily walk to that miraculous glow. 
Pieces of me that have weighed me down now fall to the floor.
My heart is bruised and scarred by the relentless abuse of this world.
I come empty handed with nothing to offer but my battered heart.
As I relinquish my heart to the one that calls, I feel a sense of 
renewal and restoration.
He calmly whispers to me I am redeemed and my soul is saved. 
My immeasurable debt has been paid and by his wounds I am healed.
My Lord and Savior has done something no other has done for me. 
He paid the price and brought me from death to life. 
So now I sing his praise and will worship him til my last breath.
I now soar with the wings of eagles and rise from the ashes. 

Inspirational Bible Quotes:


2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV:

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.


Isaiah 40:31 ESV:

But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.


Psalm 51:12

Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit

When He Returns

What a glorious but frightful day it will be For some, they will shout for joy while others for mercy they will plea.  For the goats will be met with His wrathful judgment you will see, but the sheep, eternal rest will be what they receive.  At last we will all see Him clearly with our very eyes The One who is faithful in steadfast love; He has heard His peoples’ cries.  Money, power, fame or Christ, upon which will you rely? To Him you are either friend or stranger, today you must decide! A lowly and meek child was He when He first arrived But a mighty and victorious King He’ll return, with nowhere to hide.  All of those who have mocked His holy name It is them in which He will put to shame.  To none will be a second chance on that day Accept Jesus now for thee, my friend, oh how I pray! Hear Him now for salvation does call So that when He returns you will not fall.  Inspirational Scripture:  John 3:16-17 ESV "For God so loved the world, that he gave ...

The Heavy Hand That Frees

How marvelous and instructive is your Hand, Lord. It’s the same gentle Hand that puts my heart at ease and its the same mighty Hand that rebukes me. O’ where would I be without your Heavy Hand, Father. A lost and miserable man would I be; wandering through  the desert with no hope in sight seeking for water and not finding it.  O’ how strong is your conviction when your Heavy Hand is upon me; such a heavy, intense weight is placed on my soul.  How my flesh wants to ignore, defy, and flee it, but Your  Holy Spirit whispers to me that I be still and come back to You. Yes, Your Heavy Hand shows me the wicked error of my ways.  Your Heavy Hand reveals how my sins try to disconnect me from You. But your Heavy Hand won’t let me go because I am your's, Lord.  Just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights, so it is  when Your Hand is over me. Thank you, Abba! You rebuke those that you love; ones that You call Your children. Father, Your Hand helps m...

Taiwan Collage (1)

Hey there folks. I've taken a break on the poems for a while; however, I will try to get back into them soon. In the meantime, I've decided to post up some pictures. Along with writing spiritual poetry, I enjoy taking pictures of God's glorious work in nature, architect, food, etc. I did mention that I will be doing more with my blog page so this is one way I will expand on it. I will try to keep my blog post up to date. My wife takes care of the videos, so if you want to check out our adventures, please visit her Youtube channel: Ebony Navarrete . I hope you all enjoy the pictures that I post up on this page. God Bless.
