THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
THE NEW TESTAMENT
ROMANS 6:23
For the wages of sin is death;
but the gift of God is eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord
THE NEW TESTAMENT
REVELATION 22 :13-14
I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end,
the first and the last.
Blessed are they
that do his commandments,
that they may have right to the tree of life,
and may enter in through
the gates into the city.

In Every Beginning
In every beginning,
A life is born, a life to suffer, A life to enjoy and a life to sacrifice.
In every beginning,
A new born cries, a miracle! A Creation of
The Supreme Rule.
In every beginning,
A cry of new life summons and beckons...
Every breath of sigh, every bit of hope and,
Every breath of gladness.
A cry of new life!
The beginning of a miracle, a miracle for living!
A Reason To Live and A Reason To Exist.
A reason to ponder, a reason to prepare because,
In Every Beginning there is An End...
An end the humans bemoan and wish not forfeit!
In every beginning,
Darkness envelopes and beckons as:
The Earthly Threshold closes Its Gates.
In Every Beginning A New Kingdom Awaits...
" Thy kingdom come and Thy will be done."
In every beginning,
Every single soul awaits...
A Paradise to enjoy with
Life Everlasting!

The Great I Am, our present tense God,
active, caring, loving, welcoming, calling each one.
From all eternity through the present into all eternity
The Light shines.
The glory, radiance, power, healing, love, forgiveness surround us in the now.
Christ has come. His Spirit is present.
Yes, Christ will come again.

A SHORT JOURNEY
CHRIST
Came to dwell on earth one day,
Although HE did'nt come to stay.
HE spent only thirty - three years,
Walking this earth,
' A vale of tears.'
His heart cried out for you and me,
For HE was GOD in human form, you see.
HE even knew us before we were born,
Yet day after day, HE endured great scorn.
Men turned away and denied Him as LORD,
'Tho HE offered salvation they could not afford.
HE gave Himself freely...HE paid The Price,
On a cruel cross - our sacrifice.
HE is on The Right Hand of GOD, His FATHER, above,
Waiting for you to accept His great love.
Heaven will rejoice when you, " Yes."
Transformed completely, your life HE will bless.

HOPE
I will follow,
YOU...
Upon The Great Task of Life.
Across the oceans of blue to,
The rivers of bitter hue.
I will follow,
YOU...
wherever,
YOU,
May go, because I know,
I will hear:
The flutes whistle with
the strum of guitars.
Heralding,
The Birth of A New Life.
A life that is filled with,
" YOU."

HUMANITY
is a garden of life;
of all, for all, from all-
given by the blessings from
G O D,
where culture, tradition and history
of each country reside in the hearts of the people.
It is for every generation
to cherish and to learn from.
It is for every generation
to teach, to help mould
in the minds of the youth, the youth who are the
future pillars and builders of a country.
The youth whose lives we need to protect
from the oppression of many tyrants.
Every moulding place
has to start at home with faith in
G O D.

As Dawn Brushes Darkness Away
Ever so gently Dawn comes to greet Darkness,
touching, teasing, caressing,
blushing with delicate shades of color.
Then with rushing speed, she brushes him away.
Dawn secretively allows form and shape to be seen.
Bold silhouettes stand tall. Others float upon the sea.
Ocean waves applaud the action.
Glorious sun prepares to rise above it all.
Bright rays burst through openings in the clouds,
dance in streams above the horizon,
reflect upon waves moving toward shore.
A new day breaks upon the scene.
Victorious light has ushered in the morn.
Hush and color of newness afford breath taking drama
Quiet calm and beauty bring confidence and joy.
Reality of the creative, redemptive God, offers peace.
