O MY GOD ~ I'm crying out for help
This is not a pious exclamation
I mean it ~ I'm really DESPARATE
Please hear me ~ I'm going down the DRAIN !
Please don't just let Me float downstream
With the rebellious & indifferent
Please GOD snatch Me out of the current
Set My feet safely on your Blessed Shore !
WOW My GOD that was close one ~ Thank you
For stopping Me going with the Worldly flow
You've set my feet on solid ground
You are my Rock and my Salvation !
GOD is the Hope & Salvation
Of ALL who TRUST IN HIM ~ AMEN
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

I need God to answer my prayer and just show me that he is my friend.
Thanks for your COMMENT IAN ~ and never lose FAITH ! GOD is always there and always and is always a FRIEND to those that seek HIM ~ AMEN Pray Morning Noon & Night share all your Joy & Pain with GOD and He WILL direct you Paths ~ Praying for you BRIAN (UK)
Brian, while I am not what you would call a religious person, I do believe in the power of prayers, since prayers are a form of belief. If you believe it, it will happen! Like Jesus said: Ask and you shall be given!
Thanks FRED for a frank answer ! The last thing GOD want is RELIGIOSITY He just wants Ordinary People like you and to know He is IN CONTROL and on our side. Anyone & Everyone can PRAY ~ anywhere ~ anytime ! Prayer always lifts my Spirit and lessens my Burdens ~ Yours BRIAN
Crikey Brian. I may be wrong but the woo-hoo seems to have hit the ceiling. And then come back down again.
All well over there?
Well FRANK there is a lot going on Nationally & Internationally ~ BUT ~ GOD is still in CHARGE and through Prayer we can hook into His Power & Love & Peace ~ stop worrying and "Count our Blessings" and start Praising ~ AMEN ~ BRIAN
Good write Brian prayers can be so very powerful.
Thanks ANDY ~ Your Presence ~ Prayer ~ Poetry is a great Blessing to us ALL on MPS ~AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN
Prayer has an invincible power and thanks for sharing this with us today Brian.
Thanks FAY for your positive comment ! We do need (from time to time) to be reminded of both the opportunity for PRAYER and the power of PRAYER ~ AMEN ~ Yours as ever BRIAN
Are sure god is a man? Really sure?
Thanks for the Q DA ! Well we know for sure that Jesus of Nazareth (AD 0 ~ 33) was a MAN ! Th Holy Spirit is of course Gender Neutral. JUDAISM is a Patriarchal Society so culturally JEHOVAH was always described as MASCULINE and this of course is carried over into the New Testament and Christianity. There is of course the VIRGIN MARY (without a doubt a Woman !) who ~ while not a member of the Trinity ~ is a very powerful Female in the Christian Church ! Angels likewise are gender~free. So in essence GOD is both Father & Mother but personally I prefer to call Him Father ~ OK BRIAN
Theologists now accept jesus was not from nazareth because nazareth did not exist until 300 years after the 'crucifixion'. Jesus was a Nazarean - a sect which were known for their resistence to the occupying Roman army - a sect similar to the IRA or ISIS. Theologists now also accept that the word 'virgin' when assosciated with Mary is a mistranslation. The actual translation means 'woman of marriageable quality'.
~ OK dusk.
My pages of Bible maps show Nazareth at the time of Jesus' earthly life, so.......? The family had to move there, when they came out of Egypt (end of Matthew Chapter 2).
Perhaps you didnt understand the phrase "Theologists now accept". Theologists are not brainwashed members of the public, their job is to study and understand the subject and the FACTS therein, acknowledging the errors of the past.

Thanks DA ~ There has been a lot of "I" dotting and "T" crossing wrt Judaism & Christianity and there will be a lot more in the future ~ but we have TESTIMONIES ! The BIBLE is still the World's best seller an it has been translated into over 2000 different languages ! It claims to be the Word of GOD and in the evidence of millions of transformed lives it proves to be ! The teaching of the Bible that the physical universe was created by GOD (We put that first in Genesis 1) is more valid than Evolution ~ which is still a THEORY ! As a CHRISTIAN ~ I fully accept ~ BY FAITH ~ that the 66 Books of the BIBLE is the ONLY inspired Word of God ~ available to Man ! Accepting and understanding the Bible ~ for me ~ makes everything PAST ~ PRESENT ~ FUTURE fall into place ~ AMEN ~ BRIAN
Well there are none so blind as those who will not see.
A fine write Brian. I'm somewhat old-fashioned, though know others even more old-fashioned than me. I can't seem to get on with too-modern Bible versions, e.g. The Message.
This is great though, as 'modern' or trendy' language.
is it 'Desperate'? There is 'Disparate' which is something else! 'Desparate' seems non-existent.
Also *Gets out pen and paper for discussion on: God gives us what we need, but not always what we want. Discuss!*
Thanks STEVE ~ I agree ~ The GOOD BOOK says "My GOD shall supply all your NEED" ~ not GREED. BUT would MOI ask GOD for anything I didn't really NEED ? Brian
It seems your prayer answered. Since God is busy with you, so I shall wait a bit.
Ooh there's no need to wait! His 'phone line' is always opened and never engaged! Only he could take more than one 'phone call' at a time! heehee.
Thank you. I hope I did not dial the wrong number.
As someone put in another poem - the number is: Jeremiah 33 v.3.....try that!
Thanks. got it. Is this the only number?
I don't know any more like that - all the threes! Ahh there's one with sevens - Matthew 7 v.7.
Awesome prayer/poem! Pray is so powerful! All around the world people need prayer and we need to pray for others, which I know you do! Heavenly hugs, Christina
Thanks CHRIS ~ I knew this Poem would bring JOY to your loving Heart # AMEN. YES thee are so many factors needing Prayer that w have to take PAUL's advice and "Pray without Ceasing" ~ Hugs of Heaven back to You ~ BRIAN The Intercessor !
Powerful piece. I felt like you exposed yourself spiritually in this piece. I hope your prayers are answered
