Seeded Within

Who can understand,
The grim darkness,
Within the heart of man?
For there is,
Beyond the range
Of conscience;
And the rage
Of consciousness;
A wild and bitter root,
Seeded, within us all:
Cleanse Thou me, Oh Lord,
From this secret gloom.

Amen.

No Possession

I can have,
No possession;
Amongst those,
Who have only
Possessions;
The pleasant places
Of my heart,
Seek only my Lord:
The portion of all
My inheritance;
And the fullness,
Of my cup.

The Hearts Desire

As sunlight flows
Into the waiting eye;
And the breath of life
Fills the expanding lung;
So to .......
Does the fulness of God
Fill the longing soul:
As we allow,
The delight of God
To rise in our spirits;
All lesser lights
Pale before Him,
And cease to be:
For God, Himself,
Is the hearts desire,
Of all who love Him.

Still With Thee

 Morning by morning,

Comes the sunrise;
With Thy tender glories,
In its warm rosy light,
And the blushing heavens:
As heavy eyes open,
To behold Thy face
In all righteousness;
My whole heart sings:
For when I awake,
I am still with Thee !

A Rapt Serenata

Deep seated,
Essential prayer,
Is an all embracing
Burning extasy,
Of the whole life;
In the expression,
Of living praise,
Becoming manifest:
As a rapt serenata,
Eagerly bursting forth,
Through an adoring heart.

On The Road with Cunneda: Vol. 1

I have just uploaded a new podcast, and this is something new for me. I was captivated by Govinda's Drive Time Podcasts; so, as I spend 8 - 10 hours a day on the road, it seemed a natural extension. However, as I have never before given a message 'off the cuff' so to speak, it is something completely new for me; and I will have to grow into it.





You can hear it at:

As this is something totally different; I would ask for a moment of feedback so that I can make any needed adjustments, or additions, or whatevers.

Thank you so much.

One For Our Side !

The Columbus Iditarod !

One August Night

Collapsed in the heart,
Of a leaden despair;
I sobbed aloud,
Unto Might unseen;
To Glory scarcely known:
Yet which I now knew,
Was the God of my life.

Doest Thou open
Thine eyes,
On such a one as me?
And bringest me in,
To a life with Thee?
Would Thou give peace;
To one clothed in ash?

Like a beggar,
Escaping from the Dogs
Of the street;
Did I fling open the door,
Without looking back;
To seek the presence,
Of the Living One.

RENEWAL - from Zeph Daniel's Blog

BLOG: RENEWAL

March 12th, 2011 — zephdaniel Getting closer to the actual state of renewal.... time to shed the old, welcome the new.  Never felt that as strongly as I do now... it is happening to those who allow this change to come into their lives -- we must be like a reed in the wind, not necessarily a "tough" brittle oak (as lovely as oaks are, their branches do not bend, they break).
The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY is said to be a double edged sword.  When we are not separated from Him, life is ... well, alive.  When we experience separation--and being of a religious spirit can cause that ironically--we are no longer "I AM" but Thou Art (Everything) and I Am Nothing.  I am worthless but God is great.  Now what is wrong with this picture?
I am worthless, a miserable sinner, a repetitive sinner, feeling lousy about myself in every way, but at least I'm saved.
Don't laugh.  This is how most ministers teach today.  This is the Christian Ethos.  The ultimate paradigm.  I am worthless; He (somewhere out there) is Great.
Right on the face of it I can tell you this is a lie and the whole purpose of this general teaching of that has been labeled as Christianity (when it indeed is a business) is to control others for the purpose of gain (while successful ministries make a show of charity to hide this fact).
It certainly has nothing to do with the spiritual sojourn.  It has nothing to do with Christ.  How can a person be saved if he doesn't exist as God made him to exist?
We are told that God made us "fearfully and wonderfully" (Psalm 139:14)-- then we are told that we are fallen and wicked (good example is Revelation 2:5)
Can someone please decipher this for me?
No one has to my satisfaction.
So I will.
We are fearfully and wonderfully made (i.e. there is no actual Fall, unless God is referring to Adam and Eve, genetically superior in every way before the "change")... my take is that we are FEARFULLY and WONDERFULLY made, meaning fiercely made, right now, this moment!  A fact to be celebrated.  Look at all God's creatures, they are all fearfully and wonderfully made, as is All Creation.
When we look at the sun, moon, or the heavens, or forests and great rivers and oceans, do we see a mistake?
God forbid!
So the assertion that we are garbage is false.  The assertion that we are a horrific failure (and thus cannot help ourselves, and thus can't help but continue sinning and harming ourselves and others) ends up being a big excuse for Church to allay the guilt of chronic sinners, and thus condone sinning all the more (as guilt is where they derive much of their power, always have).   Or, the Congregation (any congregation) are so weak that the demons override their will at every turn... thus, the self-importance of ministry, delivering souls FOREVER, even after deliverance has taken place, ad nauseum--so in other words the work of Jesus-God on the cross is moot.  Of no effect.  Canceled.  This my friends is the crux of the satanic, to enslave by giving permission to sin.  It is a sickness that ends in death and ultimately what the book of Revelation calls The Second Death.  Spiritual death then is the true state of Hell.
We are told to be perfect as our Father in Heaven is perfect, and that the Blood of Christ delivers us from all sin.  That is certainly good news!  Why is it that there is a huge BUT.... when Christian ministers preach?
Again, you can't have it both ways... you are garbage, He is great, and you are perfect as He is perfect... (Matthew 5:48)
There is such a thing as renewal and regeneration, there is such a thing as spiritual rehabilitation.
There is such a thing as walking in the Light as He is the Light, and as John 1 claims about Jesus, He is the true light that (gives life) to humanity.  If God is our light, then we are the Temple of the New Jerusalem.. we have the right to choose evil or good, God or Satan, to glorify man or God... all these choices we can make because we are fearfully and wonderfully made.
So something is very wrong in the schizophrenic Body of So-Called Christ, because I assert right now that CHRIST-GOD IS MISUNDERSTOOD.
Mistranslated, miscomprehended, mistaken and mistaught, if I may mangle the language abit.
I have taught on this for many years now--and no one but no one in the mind control church system comprehends it, but true Church does, and embraces it, because these have all had the exact same thoughts, and just needed to read it or hear it in context to get the scam that organized religion has to offer.  I.e. you are garbage you need us to deliver you CONSTANTLY, and thus you are our slave.
I must separate from the church people at this point, as I see no connection to God save for God using them in some way for His Master Plan.
Luke 17:20  And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
Luke 17:21  Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
If Jesus set you free you are free indeed.  No need to jump through that hoop over and over thus insulting God for the rest of your life, right?
Shalom

Par se Que

Blessed be the Lord;
Who has not given us,
As a prey to their teeth:
Par ce que; we know Him,
Whom we have trusted;
Whom we have made,
Our refuge; our life;
And our only Habitation:
In His day of battle;
He is both Glory and Draw,
Of all our strength,
And in His favor,
Shall our horn be exalted !


As it says in His Word:
"Because he hath set his love upon Me,
Therefore will I deliver him:
I will set him on high,
Because he hath known My Name.
He shall call upon Me,
And I will answer him:
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him, and honor him,
With long life will I satisfy him,
And show him My salvation."


Praise His Mighty Name!

Amen.

The Times

The times pass over us:
A succession of epochs;
Never to return.
Thus, God's moments
Come upon us;
Each with its own
Special mission,
And grace to suckle;
Oh, that we had
Eyes to see;
And hands to grasp.

Beyond All Praise

Something beyond all praise,
Has been proclaimed!
"He hath taken away
The first;
That He may establish
The second":
The surrendered blood,
Of goats and bulls,
Renounced its essence;
When the Blood
Of the Lamb was shed;
The Living Sanctuary,
Of the Eternal One
Has come nigh unto man:
Now, has the Eternal Law
Been ingraved forever,
In the readied heart
Of the believer's soul.

excerpted from: Eternity In The Heart

Man lives and dies in a world of savagery, death, decay, and change; yet God has placed eternity in his heart. Consequently, between him and his dwelling place; between him and his occupation; between him and all creation; there lies this great gulf of disproportion.

He is subject to all the vicissitudes of life on earth, yet he bears within himself a repressed, but immortal consciousness that he belongs to another whole order of things; which knows no change, no death, no decay. He possesses stifled and misinterpreted longings and memories after unchangeable being; the eternal glory of God; and insoluable peace: however starved; they remain still.

Thus endowed, and placed within the contexture of life; the perplexities and darkness of human society, and the variableness of the earthly condition: the soul of the natural man is full of the blank misgivings of a creature moving about in worlds neither recognized, nor realised - like a deer in the headlights.

It is only as we peer into this eternity; seeking Him who resides there, that we can even begin to understand man's nature, and his position; and Almighty God's immutable solution.

A W Tozer: from The Self-Sufficiency of God

Teach us, O God, that nothing is necessary to Thee. Were anything necessary to Thee that thing would be the measure of Thine imperfection: and how could we worship one who is imperfect? If nothing is necessary to Thee, then no one is necessary, and if no one, then not we. Thou dost seek us though Thou does not need us. We seek Thee because we need Thee, for in Thee we live and move and have our being. Amen

Heavy

At the draw,
Of a coarse grained,
And spotted day;
As I fall heavily,
Before the table
Of the Lord;
Sighing keenly,
For the lost flower
Of blamelessness;
And quivering,
At an impure lip.
'Oh Lord', I moaned;
'At times, Thy purity
Flees from me;
Like a fleeting vision
Of the night;
Create in me,
A new heart;
Renew Thy spirit
Within me;
And restore unto me,
The joy of my
Salvation.'

Flower of the Field

Truth shall spring,
Out of the earth;
And all righteousness
Shall look down,
From the heavens:
The Lord shall give,
That which is good;
Even the Lilly
Of the Valley,
That blooms only
In annihalated hearts,
Culled, in the labor
Of His fields.
