If These Walls Could Speak

If these walls could speak and the stories we could hear
If the pews recorded every time you weren't here
If the winds did carry the faintest whispers of your heart
If the night did echo with the fears tearing your faith apart
If in the roaring waves we heard your insecurity
If the thunder rolled out your doubts and questions of my ministry
If the fiery flames displayed your sins in their shadow
To this gospel would you hold or would you fly like a wayward arrow
Would you only stand strong in me
When the trees sang out your victories
If the clouds began pouring out disaster
Would you still be here long after
If the sound of the rain coming down with a splash
Resounded the times my will and yours clash
If the mountains boomed with the sound of your failure
Would you leave my way filled with anger
If the world was against you and the weather turned gray
Would you leave in search of sunshine or with my people would you stay
For of lukewarm saints I have no need
I only want those that will sow my seed
So if these walls could speak and my righteous thoughts they told
Would they list you among the ones that will come forth as pure gold
So what would these walls say if they could really shout
What kind of saint would be described if you they called out?



It's a very daunting thought to think what could happen if everything around us could speak. It would change our lives to know that at every moment something was recording out actions, words, even our very thoughts. How would we behave it that were possible. Yet, that is truly the case. God sees all those things and more. It's a thought we need to keep before us each day. We are the temple of God. We are His representation in the earth. If the things of this earth could speak, what would they say?

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
