The Key

Holy Friday is the Hallowed Day God molded the Key to setting man free.
On the Cross, by the shedding of His Blood, God pardons you and me.

That was the moment Love came down, touching the earth. God sending his Royal Crown.
A humble Man died on the Cross with all of Heaven looking down. The King Of Kings adorn that Crown.

Humanity was blinded by sin to what they had done.
They had no earthly clue that Truth had won.

Love conquered sin that very day when Jesus, God's son, began to pray.
Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do. I will light their way. 

God gave man the greatest gift of all. 
His Only Son, Jesus, who died for all. 

The unexplainable good that came out of the bad that hallowed day
Is the gift of Eternal Life from God
to all who believe and pray.

Dust to Dust

Dust clouds and flying rock particles during detonator blast on the construction site in the middle east
From dust, I was made to dust. I will return
The chances are great I will end up in an urn

It costs too much to have a big old funeral 
With a large casket spray of beautiful
Petunias

Nobody wants to spend my money on me
Wanting to transfer it into their Bank account you see

Well if the truth is told it's only gold
It matters nothing to me after I'm cold

I didn't bring anything into this world with me
I will take nothing with me when I'm set free

Between the lines

Sometimes the things that speak the loudest are not in the written word. 
The thunderous voice comes from between the lines of what is not heard. 

The silence of being close to a friend in need
Brings  the Heart of God His love to bleed bleed

Caring and sharing that’s the most important 
Lifting their feelings so their burdens will be shortened

It’s not what you can do or anything you can say
It’s your presence that lifts their troubles away

Sacrifice

What is the meaning of this word Sacrifice 
It means giving up something I have worked for all your life

If it were easy to give up, it would be no Sacrifive
Sacrifice brings great Hope and Love to my life

With great Hope and Love the work of the Holy Spirit can begin
The start of my path with Jesus forever being one with Him

Be the change you wish to see

Be the change you wish to be
Be the change for others to see

Changing from bad to good
Will strengthen our brotherood

Without change, you will never be what you want to be
Without change, no one will ever see

Praying to God will change you from the inside out
The change will create a smile for others to see, no doubt

Cassandra Gilbert   

              â€śCassie”

I know a young Ladie named Cassie.
She is a real Blessing for all to see.

She Loves Gymnastics and performs very well.
Her meets are almost perfect. I do tell.

Her persistence in practice shows in the light
astounding the judges with all of her might.

The calmness and poise she possesses
comes from the inner strength that she caresses.

What lies ahead, we are not to know.
The Olympic Team may be in the show.
