That Butterfly Life

I’ll Fly Away

This miserable world,
Where loved ones lie.

Where the innocent suffers,
And the good ones die.

Where hunger hurts,
And the body aches.

Where sadness prevails,
And fear takes control.

We crawl through this plane,
Like a worm on a leaf.

Consuming more and more,
And wasting away.

Till we sleep in darkness,
A worthless death.

To awake one-day, 
Changed to new life.

Free to fly and float,
From beauty to beauty

On wings of love
With God in the wind.

Consuming blessings,
In eternal bliss.

Our former selves,
Never missed.

Not As The World Gives

God Doesn’t Do Like The World Does. Jesus said. “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”—John 14:27  (John 14:1-31–in context) When God calls us, and we turn to Him, confessing Jesus…

Does God Feel Distant?

He is with you. Believe it. There are times in our lives when we feel that God has abandoned us. It seems that He doesn’t hear and we don’t feel His presence or see His movements in our lives. I have experienced the same. God has opened my eyes to the reality of it, and…
