The King With The Glass Crown

The King With The Glass Crown

When I said yes

You opened my court’s doors with Your presence

Light flooded and

Drove out darkness

 

I proceeded to bow before You

I implored You to sit upon my throne

You declined and required me to sit in my usual place

An Advisor You said, no more

 

Situations of the day bring issues in my courtroom

I listen and bend my ear to Your wisdom when I lack

 

I know from whence I came

How my dominion suffered

How this ruler was powerless

In keeping even his own castle

 

That all changed when You came in

Not by storm or by threat

I simply lifted the latch

To hear the Voice on the other side

 

So grateful I am to have You here

Counsel You give to every decision

But what is best

You are close

When George Comes to Visit

  When George Comes to Visit      With the Fender stretched across my lap, and the strings where I want them in an open chord lay, I get a reconfiguring of George Thorogood off my right ear amp.   He visits me in my living room as I wake up in the day.   Coffee, meds, and a bit of legal ‘crank’ that the doc has prescribed to awaken my sluggish head.      Praise God the women aren’t around.   Nearing 12 noon and she makes the run down near Mo Valley to get the order.   Little one is working her waitress job and I get the house all to myself with dog on the futon who doesn’t complain of my fingered whine.      George and his Destroyers sounded great in the back of my pea-green Olds.   K-Mart 6X9’s punched a hole in my back dash with a little 40Watt Panasonic EQ to give the boost.   Me and your mom used to cruise for hours around that sleepy town sitting close and just enjoying each other.      Time well spent.   Not in naughtiness, just two friends, hand-in-hand listening to tune

The Operands

  The Operands John 1:14  “ And the Word was made flesh , and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. ” Isaiah 7:14  “ Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. ” Matthew 1:23  “ Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us . ” John 20:17  “ Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not ; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. ” Revelation 1: 12  “ And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; 13  And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man , clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. 1

Brother! You're A Nut!

  Brother!   You’re A Nut! Luke 4      Who waltzes into their hometown, grabs a scroll, flips out a little passage then sits down?   All their eyes were fixed upon you.   “My Thelma, with what gracious words He has blessed us today!”   Yah, yah no women in the synagogue.   But still, all the town’s men were there hanging on Your every word.   Then the jabber –      “Prophet?   Ah’ just fulfilled one and let me lay another on you.   Doc I ain’t but you’re gonna say something is wrong with Me.   Up comes Capernaum.   See what We do there!   Oh, by the way, My kind aren’t liked in their hometown.   Take twin hitters, Elijah and Elisha, God played a bit of favorites when He outsourced them.   No squat gonna happen here in Angryville.”      This was before Your armed men of twelve.   You were flying solo and stood up to the Third Reich.   No backup.   Just a brow of a hill and a long drop.   Lighting the match in the powder room.   You came to seek and save the lost, but first You h
