Cry Out


Everything will pass and fade away like the wind. Whom shall I cry out to? Whom shall I fall to my knees for? My heart longs for my precious king, the Lord God Almighty! Crying out seems weak, but when all is stripped away, or when blessed with more than I could imagine, will both draw me to my knees to cry out to you, God? Strip away the pride. strip away the lust. strip away the guilt, shame, bitterness, sins, and the anger; strip it all away. Rid me of my filthiness, purge me with hyssop and wash me clean. For I am but one person, but you still call me by name. Who shall I cry out to? I shall and will cry out to the Lord God. Cry out to El Shaddai. Cry out to Elohim. Cry out to Yeshua. Cry out to Yahweh. Cry out to Jesus. Cry out to my heavenly Father. You are my one thing, so to you I will cry out for my heart belongs to you. Forever and always Jesus! Amen!

Just tryna' write poetry that always glorifies God and who He is, what he has done for me, and what He can and will do for you! If God can transform my life, I know without a doubt he can transform yours too! You are NEVER too far gone, or broken for God! Come to Jesus just as you are and give your life to him and watch the change happen when you turn to Jesus and live for Him!! Being a Christian is never easy, just as life isn't easy, but our only hope is in Jesus Christ the one and only!!
