MASTER

Selah, I need a Cup of Tea;
will you pull up a chair with me?
I love it when you stop bye,
I hope you enjoy this; something I call

MASTER

Cain didn't take God's advice.
God wanted him to do what was right.
He told Cain what his problem was,
and then God gave Cain the solution.

Cain wanted retribution for Abel's proper solution
Today he would be admitted to a medical institution

Was it the lies, selfishness and envy, knocking?
The good news is that Cain was the second hater,

Now I will swap and be the translator; The Lord said
"Sin is crouching at your door."

Do you need a little more?
Think of a lion stalking its prey.
We know Cain didn't pray.

The Lord said; "It desires to have you."

Are you being used as prey today?
Or are you preying after something or some-one today?
I know --- I know, not you because all my friends pray.

So here is your solution: Own your sin and make it your slave,
You know like when you buy a pet, you are its owner?

Don't let that sin tell you what to do, tell it who's boss
Open your mouth, use your lips and make those jaw bones work

God said to Cain "But you must Master it."

God was just being Cain's Pastor not his drill master.
We all know who Cain went after, today will you let
God be your Pastor and Master that Sin that's preying on you? Selah!

Love You All

MY GEMS ARE WITH ME

Sometimes things seem off balance. To the Mothers & Fathers out there who laid their babies to rest. Never believing you would see that type of pain in your life time.

Time has passed and now folks come to you with their problems and they call it pain (Just ask someone living with chronic pain).

• They say: I am upset because I've picked up five pounds and I think someone is messing around.

• They say: Why were they promoted and not me and why is she leading the song?
By-the- way my car just broke down.

• They say: Mother my husband is late and its half past 8; do you think he is messing around?

• They say: You know the plane is late, they had me standing at the gate.
What is mom doing when she is late?

• They say: You know she bumped me in line, why are my bills always late?

• They say: I hate my job and JC got a bad report card (Why will they not listen?).

• They say: Why won’t everybody just do what I ask them to do?
No one liked the dinner I made.

Then it happens. The table turned --- someone said "it's been over a year are you guys ok?"

Who is this and why did they ask?

I feel like I want to get in the kitchen and go on a long walk or take an airplane ride, for no reason at all.

I ask each day. How can I add some happiness to this day?

You know its half past 8 --- baby are you OK?

When love made me (like Mattel makes baby dolls).

Children it's not complicated, you are a walking manifestation of my love.

Your framework is love.
Your inner and outer shell is love.

So when the day brings you pain and your tears bring you rain, my love will be your sunshade and our love will push through the pain and you and I will dance.

Go deeper, a little deeper can you now see that Mother and Father pain?

Tell them my Gems are with me...Selah!

I love you all
