It’s Been a Long Time
Since the dawn of time,
the masters have reigned.
Men of might, and reknown.
Men of money, power and demons.
Humanity has been enslaved,
since the days of Adam.
The Workers in every land,
around this fallen world live,
by the sweat of their brow.
But, along came the rulers, the kings,
the conquerors, bosses and priests,
with soldiers afraid and well paid,
to take control of the working man.
With money, force, debt, threats
fear, division, diversion, and every trick,
they used to control the slaves.
Even today.
Rules, unwritten,
about how we should behave.
All the “Yes, Massah! Don’t Beat Me Massah!”
became “Yes, sir, please don’t fire me sir.”
The laws change,
and the lovers of money change with it.
Dragging freedom down.
“There is nothing new,
under the sun”
Nothing has changed,
The Bosses still rule.
The King of Babel,
is still on his throne.
It will change,
when they crumble to dust.
And weep,
when their money,
and souls are lost.

On Father’s Day
Father’s are under attack It’s Fathers Day and probably the sermons you will hear today, and the things posted on social media, will be attacks on Father’s. Little jabs talking about how they need to do better, and are the leaders of the household or some other form of guilt and shame. And we wonder…
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…
