Joseph James Breunig 3rd Poems

Do you know what Christian Hope is?
Is it a proper, confident expectation
of future, good things, yet to come?
Are you fully grounded on the tenets
...

Can you look within your heart and see
the principles of The Word in operation?
Are you still joyful with your decision,
to accept Him and His gift of Salvation?
...

After I’ve accomplished
my duties of this day,
I still don’t deserve
Your goodness and sway
...

Traditions of men get in the way,
while creating an unholy mix-
the Human Condition fails us now,
as our eyes on ourselves are transfixed,
...

I want to journey to a place,
that’s unknown and unfamiliar;
He’ll stop the sense of déjà vu
and nothing can be familiar.
...

Within this circle of
the human condition,
selfish babies will cry
and most people will die…
...

O my Lord, help me move beyond
this downward expression of:
confused, constant complaining;
where’s the reflection of Love?
...

Your unfailing Love and new mercies,
greet me in subtle waves of unsung joy.
My weary and hurting soul now embraces
yet another opportunity to be with You;
...

It just can't be a coincidence,
that my origin is that of soil;
for it provides both fertility
and the strength for human toil.
...

O Lord, You've lovingly taught me
to call unto You, having promised
to reveal great, wondrous secrets.
Hidden within Thy Word are mysteries
...
