Judge Not

I don't remember when I wrote this but enjoy it.


who are you to judge
who are you to say
who are you  to tell them
that they can’t come this way
They may look very different
they may not seem ideal
As if God was choosing people
based on outward appeal
They may be tall and skinny
have gold teeth, dreads, and earrings
Thank the lord that Jesus
doesn’t focus on those things
They may be pierced all over
have tatooes like a poster
Just be thankful that heaven
seems to take a look much closer
Remember what you looked like
When the lord brought you this way
you wouldn’t have picked you would you
wouldn’t have given yourself the time of day
But God sent you somebody
Someone willing and determined
To be used by Jesus Christ
Ready to be his humble servant
They didn’t seem concerned
with how you treated your earthly vessel
They wanted to get much deeper
and with your spirit wrestle
They looked at you with the love of God
Shining in their eyes
almost as if they seemed to hear
your soul’s desperate cries
You remember that day dont you
I can tell by the tears in your eyes
Tears of thankfulness
That they didn’t just pass you by
So how come every time that you’re out and about
And you feel the need to witness
You single out and pass the ones
who look like they could never be this?
Next time remember where you came from
and that God’s the one who chooses
You just tell them about His love
and ignore all the differences

In The Beginning

This is the first poem I'd ever written. My pastor had just given a lesson on the subject creation and I felt inspired to write this. It was my first taste of poetry and I've been hooked ever since! I believe my talent has grown much since this poem but I wouldn't want to forget where I began..... In the Beginning by Kesheena LeVasseur 02/14/09 In the beginning When God created His Son He said “ Let's make a world” Let it revolve around the Son So in the beginning A world was made The word of God tells us It took Him six days In the beginning God made Adam and Eve Out of the dust of the earth And into them life He breathed In the beginning God created a tree, Outside of the garden, Of which he told them not to eat In the beginning A choice Adam made To disobey God And go his own way And in the beginning Out of Eden they were sent And because of their sin Back to the dust they went Even now today ...

The Team Member

Another rookie.... The Team Member By Kesheena Levasseur 4/1/09 there was a little boy on a team one day He couldn't catch, he couldn't throw but on the team he wanted to stay He wasn't there to watch or play he just helped the team in his own little way The day he was chosen they didn't want him to stay He was too slow and they told him so He was a failure at their sport, the team would never win But to the championship they were on their way Because of the boy they chose that day When the trophy they got They didn't mention his name Though he'd contributed a lot to the game He'd carried the water and chased stray balls And when the boys fell, an encouragement he'd called But when he was questioned very happy he seemed for he was content just to be a part of the team Here in the Body you may not receive The attention you want but don't be deceived Hold your peace, stay in your place Everyone here is needed God sees you...

No Light

Just a quick thought with a rhyme. Yes I know it has a Dr. Suess flow to it. HAHA. You might have to read it twice to comprehend it. I wrote it and I still have to read it through twice. Well enjoy!! What if there was no light? There’d be no wrong then, right? And if there’s no wrong then there’s no right. And where there’s no right there can’t be light. And without the light we have no sight. The whole world is dark as night. So if there’s no me and there’s no you doing what God has called us to do. Then there’s no light, no wrong, no right. In essence there is no fight. So be the light you’re called to be. The kind that helps the blind to see. 8/16/14
