Jehovah Jireh

Jehovah jireh, God will provide
Words so easily spoken until faith is tried
Who doesn’t believe that Elohim, King of kings
Is able to do great and powerful things?

When a river flows in the desert
Ten thousand sing His praises
Yet the sound of their voices change
When again the drought again rages

El Shaddai has left us!
He’s a God of sudden whims!
They shout, Curse God and die!
Just as Job’s wife once counseled him.

Shall we accept good from God and not trouble?
The simple question Job asked
Your reaction is foolish, woman
Through calamity can you not stand fast?

The Lord giveth and He taketh away;
May the name of the Lord be praised.
Naked I will leave this earth some day
For it was naked that I came

All that we have and treasure
Was not acquired by our strength alone
Even the children of our wombs
Were given to us on loan

All that we have belongs to Him
To do with as He see fit
Rest assured it is not some whim
But a plan we can be part of if we’ll simply submit

Pardoned

Pardoned, forgiven, exonerated From our sinful nature liberated All guilt, all blame, and shame Were absolved when Jesus came He came to save yet was rejected Tried and tested, yet finished perfected Sentenced to die like a common criminal A thief on each side with Him in the middle He carried the cross on that long walk The crowd stood by simply to mock With every drive of the stakes in His hands He redeemed the lives of sinful man All around the people jeered They pierced His side with a spear A crown of thorns upon His head He bore the shame for us instead Only when darkness covered the skies Did they truly come to realize The extent of the damage done When they crucified the Chosen One 7/13/14

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

The Meaning in the Name

You're probably wondering why I chose the name Talent Unburied . I believe that God has given me the talent of poetry.  It dawned on me recently that by not sharing the fruit of my gift I am burying it in the ground so to speak. Like the story in the bible of the mean given talents to invest, I was to you this talent for the glory of my king. So I created this blog so I can share with you the words I am inspired to write. I dont want to bury my talent and have the master displeased with me. So please read, enjoy, and be sure to comment!
