My Guardian Angel (s)

Guardian Angel was written by my mom when she was a young girl. She recited it into her 90’s.

Guardian Angel

When I was just a little child

And had so many fears

My mother used to say to me 

Don’t cry just dry your tears

You have a guardian angel

Jesus gave to you at birth

And he is with you always

On your journey here on earth

To say I didn’t want one

Would have been a great mistake

But I only wanted one 

If he had skin on his face 

And so, as I went on in life

Through hardships and through strife 

I found my angels out there 

To help me on with life

I know they come from heaven

By what they say and do 

And God has loved me always

Because he sent me you 

(and you) (and you).

Happy Birthday, Mom. Missing you today but in joy that you are with Dad. All is Calm, All is Bright...

The Sage & The Seer

The Word of the Lord came to me asking, What do you see? – Jeremiah 1:13

Take heed what you hear, And to you who hear, more will be given. Mark 4:24-25

Listen! What Do You See?

New vision is coming to those who see
Sagacity for those who hear

The Sage & the Seer train in the secret place
In His protective shadow they prepare on their knees
In the light they hear, in the dark they see
they ready for tomorrow's war

Double agents who see and hear
Double anointed, they are the veiled ones
The new messengers,
who both see and hear God's whisper

The boardroom will be the war room
Advisors will call on the Sage & the Seer
who know the Master Architect's blueprint
for kingdom strategy

The next battle is near
A new evil underfoot
that require the wisdom of the Sage & the Seer
who follow the orders of their Commander-in-Chief

“Ears that hear and eyes that see— the LORD has made them both.” – Proverbs 20:12-1

“But as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.” – Joshua 5
