There is grace for every broken dream
Onward walk to continue being
Onward unseen until mended reality seeing
Onward forward steps keep repeating
Onward go on for you’re worth your heart beating
Onward becoming who you’re meant to be rather than retreating or worse yet leaving
Onward knowing HE lives at the right hand of GOD with scars for you interceding
Onward heeding HIS voice of encouraging to continue enduring and persevering even if for now it’s just breathing
On HIM always lean…
~
Press on rather than regress despite feeling depressed
Pass the test to go on beyond the trials and tribulations that oppress
Continue with faith in the SON for making progress
Continue to hope in HIM to find rest
Continue in HIS love which is greatest and will work out what is best
Choose life and blessing over death and cursing that HE died to give you as your inspiring and motivating quest
Draw near to HIM and HE will draw nearer sincerest as you pour out your heart to HIM in confidence rather than those feelings just suppress
Reassess life as a maturing process, mess of sin with guilt and shame confess to find forgiveness, and then will profess HIS evidence realized further along life’s journey of HIS faithfulness
Focus is more when there is less…
~
Less to not weigh you down in fear replaced by HIS love held dear
Less worry in your heart found in HIM who makes it disappear
Less weary chasing after empty success that falls aground like tears
Less willful of your own plans that fail here
Less want of the world’s lust wandering into sin that causes pain and torment so severe
Less wasting away in your illness with HIS acceptance of all that you are by caring for yourself to improve mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health adhere
Less wavering in unbelief by simply believing HE will turn your life around with HIS patience and gentleness steer
Less wondering about what ifs of the past that HE uses in your future to help others made more clear
Less while HE becomes more to you during your extended years
~
More faith in HIS truth so you’re no longer unruly that will no longer duly offend
More hope and trust in HIS ways you can truly depend on now that you’re newly opened
More love in HIS life abiding to be a light shining in darkness to give freely and often
More mercy from HIS healing throne of Heaven that is new every morning sent
More compassion from HIS heart to listen to others vent -even from suicide may prevent
More grace from HIS hand to lead and guide you along righteous paths that will leave no regret in retrospect
More of HIS Spirit welcoming within who will comfort you with HIS Presence, counsel you with HIS wisdom, and care for your well-being with moans expressed according to GOD’s will for your life when words of prayer fail to connect
More delighting in HIM to be given the desires of your heart meant to mend your dreams again made relevant where nightmares can’t circumvent
More freedom will come after suffering through a set timeframe where to live is Christ and to die is gain that is effective when wait on GOD’s timing and not your own as you wait to resurrect into HIS arms as Heaven’s resident
~
Wait on HIM for new strength returning to soar above the storms on eagle’s wings freeing
Wait on HIM for renewing your mind with truth until having soundness of peace releasing
Wait on HIM for reviving your heart recreating within purity and right desires brought back into the land of the living reconvening
Wait on HIM for rescue unto redemption forthcoming that will restore your soul and implore within you vision, purpose, and meaning that’s increasing
Wait on HIM for refilling your cup to overflowing until refreshing your spirit into HIS will agreeing and being a doer of HIS Word unleashing
Wait on HIM watching as HE wins every battle in your war raging against the enemy who attempts at deceiving
Wait on HIM to direct your steps through open doors revealing
Wait on HIM for HIS promises open handed toward until receiving
Wait on HIM for complete healing that makes you whole whether here on earth or there in Heaven as the great reward for continually believing

YOU were there when I fell in the deepest pit of utter black darkness wraith of hope depressed
YOU were there when I laid down and could barely sit up to muster any faith to cope in my mess
YOU were there when I was a shell of emptiness with shallow breath as evidence not sure whether I’d ever have steps to be deft again or mend even from your nurturing obligations
YOU were there when I was in hell of loneliness like a death sentence, but you never left as I wept and hardly slept in weakness rend often to descend furthering complications
YOU were there in my broken brokenness lost in strife
YOU were there to awaken awareness into new life
YOU were there to believe for me when I couldn’t just be
YOU were there to perceive YOU’d free when I wouldn’t trust Thee
YOU were there when I couldn’t do anything
YOU were there to pull me through everything
YOU were there to encourage and rebuke readily
YOU were there to give reassurance resolute steadily
YOU were there until we were a growing family
YOU were there to fulfill that we were overflowing avidly
YOU were there when I was lost, then amazed by YOU found with YOUR grace, mercy, and compassion all around no longer the same without any shame
I am here because YOU counted the cost, and raised me up off the ground with purpose, vision, and a future with passion to abound now stronger for YOUR Name renown to proclaim

What to think for starters
Live life like martyrs
At first it may seem harder
So let GOD part the water farther
Walk on across fears border
Until you reach HIM as the rewarder
Then offer self daily
Faith driven embracing
Hope given for lives raising
Give love unfailing
Begin the trail blazing
Find HIS grace amazing
Discover purpose to die for
With service apply toward
Eyes with vision more
Mind with wisdom implore
Heart with mission adore
Soul with decisions restore
Spirit with precision soar
Each day mercy is new
So a start over is true
Every storm pass through
More thankful for skies blue
Look to realize how you grew
Love one another as HIS disciple prove
May die many deaths
Take in and out plenty breaths
Forgiven East to West
Looking Heavenward is best
Choose purity to be blessed
Faith filled to pass each test
Come to HIM in need of rest
Rely on HIM when stressed
Failures when fallen confessed
Cleansed from all unrighteousness
Become more when become less
Into the Great Commission invest
Join the few to welcome in the harvest

I have recently launched K.O.R.E. online ministry as GOD has called me to be a pastor. I’m following the LORD trusting HIM to work in and through my life to bring GOD the FATHER glory, honor, and praise in JESUS’ name… I plan to write messages weekly and post mostly on Saturdays. I have written 2 messages one from last week and one for this week. My hope and prayer is that you will be inspired to grow in faith, hope, and love in your walk with Christ… I especially want to reach out to those who don’t have a church home. K.O.R.E. exists for those who are dealing with depression, experiencing mental illness, having suicidal thoughts, have attempted suicide in the past, dealing with oppression, feeling like an outcast, facing health challenges, and/or just feeling overwhelmed in life… If anyone needs prayer, support, and encouragement feel free to reach out to me anytime… I will personally respond to you in a timely manner… Come by and visit the website and give me some feedback, leave a prayer request, or express your interest to get involved: K.O.R.E.
Soldier On

Stranded on an island a lost man
Reprimanded for depression -why banned?
Openhanded to bystanders disband
Empty handed as one meanders then to remand
Withstand the pressure of hurricane force in sinking sand
Unplanned shock in full measure restrained remorse can’t understand
Branded with mental illness desiring only help and support in demand
Broken down and fallen apart
Fallen ground and broken heart
Sullen around look to restart
Fullness in HIM will impart
Newness of life again jumpstart
Openness to love won’t depart
Stillness set apart for HIS will a work of art
Found what I was looking for
Only in HIM the way to restore
All that was lost and taken before
Given back more and more still implore
Persevere to live on for Whom will reward
Run this race face forward press on toward
Heaven’s gaze trace and erase sins failure in war
Poor in spirit chase embrace from HIM once more
A soldier stronger no longer distracted
Beholder of HIS strength await contracted
Bolster in faith, hope, and love to be refracted
Mold occur within by the Potter for HIS use to serve impacted
A shoulder to cry on with mercy and compassion protracted
Exposure of years of pain make me who I am into faith and grace extracted
Closure given about my past with composure for the future with HIM attracted
Disclosure driven in the mission to encourage others to fight on whenever contacted
2 Timothy 2:3-4
Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him.

However bright
What’s brilliance beyond sun to earth so bright
Reflect HIS love walking in the Light
Get to know to do GOD’s will
However difficult
What’s the cost and then count it all joy to takes steps difficult
Overcome fears more than a conqueror to carry out HIS perfect will
Wait on HIM for renewed strength
However long
What’s the difference it will make, to walk the extra mile, to help others along the way all life long
Depend on HIM in trust and humility to provide all that is needed found in HIS strength
Long for HIS appearing
However busy
What’s the focus need to be as a priority that is worthy to keep us busy
Delight oneself in HIM above it all ready with faith to show at HIS great appearing
Live pure to be secure
However tempting
What’s the purpose other than to order one’s steps aright to set face like flint forward on the straight and narrow right on past tempting
Seek Heaven’s wisdom to find pure motives being pure lived out continually until one day see GOD and be found in HIM secure

Make me faithful within
A heart pure and open
Not turn left or right into sin
Walking forward even if broken
Grace filled spaces taken
Straight and narrow not forsaken
Mercy and compassion awaken
Encouragement gladly given
All sin can be forgiven
Cast to the bottom of deepest ocean
As far as east to west forgotten
YOU gave all for many ransom
To be in that number not random
Drawn by HIS Spirit to the Son tandem
Find faith, hope, and love start to fathom
Into Living Water spring forth in rhythm
Overflowing cup no longer hidden
No longer run to what is forbidden
Run to seek the prize on mission
Now that I am set free from prison
All because HE died, buried, risen
HE is worth it to accept HIM
Now is the day of salvation’s decision
Words of life -time to listen
Better than into a well wishin’
There is faith to perceive new vision
There is hope to believe anew driven
There is love to conceive and newly breathe in
There is grace to receive for victorious livin’
There is mercy to leave guilt and shame ridden
There is compassion to grieve until you mend reopen
Know HE loves you when HE chooses to discipline again and again
Know HIS anger lasts only a moment, but HIS favor lasts a lifetime your heart to win
Weeping may last for the night, but joy comes with the morning when the sun will glisten

To whom sadness casts you downward spiral; flood sows in tears when
Hold your breath so as not to drown in sudden death
HE keeps all your tears in a bottle kept in Heaven
To whom madness lasts, bruise inward exile, blood flows in fears often
Catch your breath to turn from suicidal death
HE frees you from fears with HIS perfect love made alive again
To whom badness blasts, lose backward in denial, judge woes in jeers descend
Take a breath before heading down that wrong path that leads to death
HE sees you and clears the past jeers east to west so all you are is forgiven
To whom callous lash out, choose outward hostile grudge, pose a threat it appears
Lose your breath for vengeance refrain from causing misled death
HE can appease your inner turmoil of anger and bitterness when HE appears to be the One to defend bringing peace within
To whom gladness basks in the Good News, forward vital nudge, grows when drawn near to HIM open
Refresh new breath by the Spirit that brings new life beyond all death
HE brings a future and a hope with purpose and vision with a mission to be love now driven

Who To Turn To
Pour Out Your Heart to GOD
Pouring out your heart to GOD is the single most beneficial thing you can do in your life. He listens and understands. JESUS, when HE came to earth as one of us (human too), experienced every type of temptation, stress, emotions, and thoughts yet was without sin. After HE died on the cross to satisfy GOD’s wrath, overcome death, deal with our enemies including satan, and to deal with and forgive our sin, HE became our High Priest who understands our weaknesses, daily bears our burdens, and prays for us. HE knows and understands us more than anyone else can.
Pouring out your heart to GOD = extreme closeness to the heart of GOD
David, a shepherd boy, who later became the king of GOD’s people is known as a man after GOD’s own heart. Do you know why he was a man after GOD’s own heart. David turned to GOD whenever he was dealing with life’s ups and downs and poured out his heart to HIM. He wasn’t perfect and sinned in terrible ways. So why then was he still a man after GOD’s own heart. He made many mistakes, yet he turned to GOD quickly and asked for forgiveness and desired the relationship to be restored. When good happened in his life, he turned to GOD and gave HIM thanks. David is the author of many of the Psalms in the Bible. If you want examples of pouring out your heart to GOD, you can read through the Psalms which are heartfelt pouring out of emotions and thoughts that were burdensome to bear and deeply troubling to heartfelt pouring out of emotions and thoughts expressing gratitude.
I highly recommend getting a spiral notebook or other journal and begin the process of pouring out your heart of all its emotions and thoughts, hopes and dreams, failures and successes, and deepest needs expressed to GOD and you will be radically changed for the better by doing so… Share your thoughts with HIM, cast your cares and anxieties onto HIM from your heart, bare your soul to HIM, and send up flares from your spirit unto HIM… As you do so over time, things will begin to transform within you through development of your seeking relationship with your Creator who knows all things, knows you, knows what you need and yet wants you to just talk to HIM…
Pouring out your heart to GOD is a way of delighting in HIM… There is a wonderful promise to receive when we do this…
Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
Psalm 62:5-8
5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;
my hope comes from him.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor depend on God[a];
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people;
pour out your hearts to him,
for God is our refuge.
Suicidal Thoughts Not a Sin

Mine or yours having fierce suicidal thoughts are not a sin in its reoccurring more than meditation
Mine or yours having fierce suicidal thoughts are a battle we can win enduring the onslaught and persevering until disaster passes without retaliation
My frontline reality is fighting beyond suicidal ideation into dreams desires for realization
My focus centrality is encouraging all to make it out within HIS remediation
My frame of reference is faith, hope, and love to abound from the Creator to HIS creation
My family I live for so I continue to press on with determination
My faith is that I don’t live for myself alone, but unto HIM in adoration
My freedom is to live pure to be secure in God the FATHER’s hands for the SON’s traits rebuilding within this clay as HIS formation
I know some will overcome every moment into freedom in the future with just being blood bought
I know some will succumb to its’ warring thoughts, yet with faith as small as a mustard seed will put trust in HIM continually knowing its not for nought
I know some will be numb from the scarring its wrought, yet rise above into new life after whats fraught
I know some will come to know JESUS once sparring alone to discover who helps in the battles fought
I know some will become found to enter in HIM after the jarring being stuck as HE lifts up with compassion from the pit caught
I know some will be from outer darkness until starring with HIM from mercy inward being taught
I know some will fall seven times and rise again 8, since each turn for help is hope and strength in HIM having sought
I know some will face their giants with grace until each one is slain to stand above the onslaught

Just make it real
Beyond what conceals feel
Just take pain -shield
Beyond kill, destroy, steal
Just send to heal
Beyond the brokenness surreal
Just carry on forever
Beyond the daily weather
Just speak truth center
Beyond hearing lies sever
Just listen -compassion’s endeavor
Beyond where understandings never
Just realize you matter
Beyond where emotions scatter
Just dream Jacob’s ladder
Beyond earth’s atmosphere flatter
Just await rescues answer
Beyond what caused shatter
Just choose to stay
Beyond the hurt betray
Just live each day
Beyond one more today
Just outlast sun’s rays
Beyond horizons leveled ways
Just climb mountain peaks
Beyond valleys low steep
Just swim above ocean’s sleep
Beyond mistakes sinking deep
Just soar updrafts keep
Beyond storm clouds leap
Just be to do
Beyond with love prove
Just see vision anew
Beyond if darkness grew
Just accept yourself overdue
Beyond guilts shame unglue
Just as you are
Beyond your reflections star
Just outlive fear spar
Beyond what’s near and far

Beyond a miracles birth
Just trust hope girth
Beyond the miracles rebirth

Just beyond fear go outpour into others implore
Just beyond freedom overflow encore overcoming what once was before

A world turn to ice
Rotation seems to stop -test
The roll of the dice
Grow up to release stress
Resistance to change
Succumb to nevertheless
Desire to be someone
Lost in the night from days depressed
Fade with disappearance of the sun
Where becomes the focus more or less
Inward view at darkness strange
Hell on earth felt with mental illness
Battle is in my mind
Life or death hangs in the balance hard pressed
Can’t help but look for a sign
Negative thoughts overtake intense
Fear and doubt narrows outlooks range
Future dread, past enchains, present in suspense
Let go self care
Minimalizing nourishment starving inside as my guest
Brain eating itself deceiving now aware
Cold heart mourn trespassed east to west
Soul torn in unrest
Frozen spirit forlorn tests distressed
Mind stuck on warning/warning/warning/warn?!. digress
Perfect storm enters inside to derange
Panic stricken hidden within head’s walls torments
Suicide has access
How come I acquiesce
Open the door, crossed the line oppressed
Suicidal hours pass suppress
Relentless until possess -success?!.
Drown out voices in excess
No such attempt a success…
Come up for air with will still to live reassess
Arise soaken wet convalesce
Hitch a ride back to civilization egress
At a loss that death somehow did outguess finality this time, how to process?
Did I go too far with the way I transgress?
Parents sullen expression hopeless -turn their back and walk away
My only hope is Heaven above to hear my cries to HIM confess
Scared the enemy stalks in this darkness; hearing breaths closing in for attack as I pray
In time JESUS answers to rescue, restore, redeem to repossess
Relationship with the LORD reestablished over the years with interchange
Taken back into the sheepfold to learn trust has been an ongoing process
All HE did for me I can’t express fully in my writings or with my spoken words, but I try
Yet, JESUS, is HIS precious name I will forever profess
Since HE has heard my wavering cries, I will walk with HIM no longer to deny for faith, hope, and love now unto others apply…
Frozen ice melts with the SON press on Heavenward progress
Saves lives, softens hearts, sanctifies minds, sets spirits free in wondrous and beautiful exchange
Casts out fear with perfect love HE has won to bless…

Time is on our side
Some will say
But is it? Delay decay…
Time is in HIS hands
Yesterdays, todays, and tomorrows
This is for sure -I know Who helps us through our sorrows…
We aren’t promised tomorrow at any time
In fact
There’s no going back. Or can we? Pack? Step into a time machine hijack?
No, odds are stacked against us and left us out of whack -but we can take time to remember, reminisce, revisit again whereas only HE can turn back the hands of time to redeem…
Though older
There is youth regret with desire to start over
We can start over and with time become much wiser
There’s no getting younger age wise to retract
There is backtrack to ask for forgiveness white as snow to be exact
Time stands still
Love can do that; become young at heart to keep intact facing the facts head on -make a comeback
However brief and for however long is its lifelong impact…
There’s still time
For love to carry on
Choose to make a difference before its gone
Time is of the essence
Find love in HIS Presence
Be filled up with overflowing cup upon a mountain top experience
Time is a healer; heals all wounds
Come back down into the valley of the shadow
To help our fellow brother or sister below… Death may come fast, all of a sudden, and everybody know or occur solo so slow -either way let love show…
Time flies when you’re having fun
So time dies when you’re not -no, it’s for faith inside to grow… hope inside to know… love inside reaching out to bestow…
Faith, hope, and love remains as HE alone sustains wherever we are and wherever we go…
Time changes everything
We are changed, it’s true, as we walk along
Changed by the sadness and bitterness or changed to maturity ongoing with each new dawn…
Running out of time
Make moments count even so
An eternal fount awaits beyond the rainbow
At times, let go of time constraints
Enjoy the still and quiet silence or choose opposite of any violence toward others or yourself; begin a new endeavor
A goal may be to get through whatever the weather; give up never, yet ready for forever…
Time to come in
Come in from the cold -no longer alone; come bold to the throne of grace to obtain grace and mercy in times of need until found a home; come hold on until the disaster passes over -out of the war zone
Rest your weary soul in HIM; bought at a price not your own…
Time is now
Act in such a way to bring honor, glory, and praise to our Creator
Best to do so sooner, better late than never, or miss out all together later
Time to go
On a trip of adventure ready for departure
Make lasting memories to capture ever ready to really leave this earth with the rapture
It’s time
Time to know the Way, the Truth, and the Life
So that your time eternally is spent in Heaven beyond internal sin, death’s sentence, pain and sickness, screaming solo, and negative strife
This time…
I live not for myself alone
I’m here for who I love; making HIM known…
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
A Time for Everything
3 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
Up, Close, and Personal

Faith will find a way
Find a way to hold on
Walk In the race until agree to run
Tend to while fighting the good fight
Hope will find a way
Find a way to carry on
To taste and see what HE has won
Send igniting into the night within the Light
Love will find a way
Find a way to overcome
To embrace and receive the SON
When delighting desires become set aright
Grace will find a way
Find a way to soar above
Through every storm have sufficiency enough
Lend Mighty Right Hand uplift for HIS vision in sight
Mercy will find a way
Find a way through push and shove
Cover over, found beneath, until arise a diamond in the rough
Defend as High Priest if broken and contrite
Compassion will find a way
Find a way to lift others up
Fill to overflowing my empty cup
Again and again give what’s needed beyond the fright of any plight
Faith will find the truth
Find the truth that sets free
Set free in the SON indeed
Abide in HIM to grow
Hope will find the truth
Find the truth to hold and keep
Debts paid move forward always believe
Guide into the Light reflect to show
Love will find the truth
Find the truth to just be
Let it enter in daily to receive
Subside the fears, until cast aside, for love to forever know
Grace will find the truth
Find the truth to speak
Fret not to take a stand against the enemy
Decide to be in HIS will with seed for the sower to sow
Mercy will find the truth
Find the truth to grieve
Get back up no longer deceived
Hide under shelter of HIS wings until an arrow in HIS bow
Compassion will find the truth
Find the truth for others reach
Forget not where you came from with their pain conceive
Arrive on the scene to resuscitate no matter the injury or how far they’ve fallen below
Faith will find the life
Find the life few will find, even so, choose to breathe
Leapt to discover what only HE can do with me
Tried as gold refined by fire seven times aglow
Hope will find the life
Find the life with desires come to fruition when unto HIM heed
Secrets of HIS Heavenly wisdom enter in to succeed
Ride on the heights to newly dream to where HE leads go
Love will find the life
Find the life to do the same sincerely
Kept in HIS grips equipped meek and holy
Wide, long, high, and deep is this love of Christ that overflows
Grace will find the life
Extending to reach any in need with HIS wings beneath
Regrets left behind press on for Heavenward’s prize to seek
Died to sin made alive in Christ to walk the straight and narrow
Mercy will find the life
Find the life I don’t deserve because HE heard my pleas
Outlet for others to come to know HIM from their chains be released
Beside HIM open to be who I’m meant to be pure as white snow
Compassion will find the life
Find the life to become compassion perceived to those in need
Interprets what to pray and then stretch out hand for healing to relieve
Confide in HIM here and now into eternity ever ready to understand however many tomorrows bestow
