That's My King!

Image
By Dr. S.M. Lockridge The Bible says my King is a seven-way king....He's the King of the Jews; that's a racial king....He's the King of Israel; that's a national King....He's the King of Righteousness....He's the King of the Ages.....He's the King of Heaven....He's the King of Glory....He's the King of kings, and He's the Lord of lords. That's my King. Well....I wonder, do you know Him?.... David said, "The Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows His handiwork. My King is a sovereign King. No means of measure can define His limitless love. No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supply. No barrier can hinder Him from pouring out His blessings. He's enduringly strong....He's entirely sincere....He's eternally steadfast....He's immortally graceful....He's imperially powerful....He's impartially merciful....... Do you know Him? He's the greatest phenomenon

Lyrical Conversations

Category: Life I was listening the radio today which I rarely do, and I heard a song that completely spoke to me on so many levels. It of course got my brain spinning and I began to wonder why it is that songwriters/singers/rappers/poets seem to say the exact thing we want to say? because they go through the same things we do that’s why! I went home and went through the songs on my laptop and found 5 songs that would make great conversations concerning 5 situations currently going on in life right now. Lyrical Conversation 1: The Prayer Closet - Never Would Have Made It by Marvin Sapp (me as I worship with the Father) Never would have made it, never could have made it, without you I would have lost it all, but now I see how you were there for me And I can say Never would have made it, Never could have made it, Without you I would have lost it all, But I now how I see how you were there for me and I can say I’m stronger, I’m wiser, I’m better, much better, When I look back over all yo

*U See, I was looking for a love to call mine But instead I found you [4x] And it was just a true waste of my time In love if we mess up (so) But how come with you Sometimes I flip and ask myself why It had to be you [4x] But then I get a grip It was all a lie And love was so precious Until I met you [chorus] I don't know why I saw a prize In you, you Everynight I close my eyes Oh, it's alright I lose my sight of you Someone is bound to come along In due time And do better than you [4x] And I wont be left alone He'll love me for life And sure wont be callous and Selfish like you How the strength in me has grown And I realize I don't need you [4x] Disrespect you've shown You can run and hide But all of what happened Will come back to you [chorus] Oh, moving on (yeah) Making a new start (yeah) I'm making I will live my life And surely it won't be with you [chorus] I don't know why Not so sad about you no more *I'M DONE I’m done...loving Ooh done...yeah

I am the Gem that the Jeweler Refused...

As I write this, my heart is breaking. I can feel the quakes ripple inside my chest as my mind continues to recall our past. Our past...that's a funny statement when I think about it. We really didn't have much of a past, but what we did have has left a scar on my heart. I am bleeding sorrow from the pit of my soul! I just want to scream!! I can hardly breathe!!! What could have me this un-nerved, I am losing a man that I never had...that's what. When I first heard that he was leaving, it didn't really sink in. I guess because I thought he wouldn't really leave. Then I some how put the whole thing out of my mind, and begun the draining efforts in which to get him back. Did I really even want him back or was it all just so he wouldn't want to leave? Then I would have more time to convince him that I am the one he should be with. It has been several years that I have known this man, and in that time I have had my heart broken so many times, and most of that was my

Superman's disguise is Clark Kent

Image
I was watching one of my favorite movies ( Kill Bill ) and Bill said something very interesting. He said "Superman's disguise was Clark Kent..." Now when you think about it, he was right. Superman is the only superhero that was born with his special powers and everyone else was either bitten, blasted by some ray or simply has his weapons made in a secret lab. This made me think. Do we wear disguises that hide who we really are? I called one of my girlfriends today to tell her about this guy that I met while in rehearsal for Jesus of Nazareth(passion play 2008) . The guy in question (who's name is being withheld) is unlike any other guy I would normally find attractive. Now he is very good looking, but he is a little weird somehow. He is one of those tall light skinned brothers that lately are not my cup of tea, but there is something about him. When he enters the room I lose my breath. When he speaks I hang on his every word. I want to know what he's thinking
