So here I rest in isolation from everything I’ve known
A wanderer in quest of a place
that I called home
Time spent in search of higher ground
Reality haunts my dwelling
Leaving more mountains that I must climb
A thousand miles vanished
Renders only a consciousness
Of what I left behind…
The last day of the year
The last hour is here
What will come is to come
I’m tired of all this reality
I would run again but
I have run out of road
I must embrace and believe that
Everything
Is
Exactly
The
Way
It’s
Supposed
To
Be
A
New
Year
A
Rude
Awakening
For
Some
May
Be
A
Promise
To
Others
Prophecy
2015
Rejoice, for He that is within thee, is greater than he that is in the world.

Once upon a time, a mother made her son a wristband. On it was written: WWJD? This, of course stood for: “What Would Jesus Do?” She instructed her son to look at the wristband before making decisions on how to live his Christian life.
A week later she was shocked to see that her son had become friends with prostitutes, was hanging out with ‘sinners’ — even buying people another round of beers!
Worse still, he had walked into their church the previous Sunday and tore down the book store, overturned the tables and threw the cash register through the window, he then made a whip and chased the pastor out of the building, declaring he was turning God’s house into a den of thieves.
Most shocking was what happened when his mother went to picket the local abortion clinic. To her embarrassment, her son was also there, but he was standing with the women who just had an abortion, and yelled at the protesters: “You who are without sin, throw the first stone!”
The mother was very distressed, but fortunately she found a solution to this terrible problem. She made another wristband, this time it read: WWAPD? This, she explained to her son, stood for: “What Would A Pharisee Do?” She took the old WWJD? wristband and burned it.
Since her son has been wearing the new wristband, looking at it to help him make his decisions, he has become a dedicated tither, a public prayer warrior, an active condemner of ‘sinners,’ judges with wrath, and has a great reputation as a godly young man amongst other religious people.
Needless to say, the mother is very happy now. She only wishes Jesus would take notice and follow her son’s good example.
