A Song for the Sorrowful:
“In Due Season” Does it seem like the end ? Everything has been lost ? The hour`s too late ? Your counting the cost... You waited and hoped that Jesus would come but your dream is now dead and your heart`s feeling numb... Yet, this is your hour ! So, stand and don`t cower ! For there`s more than one bud that gives birth to more than one flower ! And remember His words to Martha and Mary who watched Lazarus die while Jesus did tarry: Yea, He stood and He wept as His tender heart it did grieve but He firmly affirmed, “If you`ll only believe !” Indeed, this is the time for our Hero to enter to arise and take charge; to assume front and center. So, although the hour has past and your forlorn and downcast believe and receive for the Good Lord`s good will will at last come to pass. A.B.Adams September 6, 2024 Friday
A Muse for the Mournful:
“Feathery Friends”
Feathery friends
are good for the heart
as our Creator depicts them
His fine work of art.
When slowly they move
across the blue tinted sky,
I pause and take notice
as they capture my eye.
And so as I watch
my heart doth feel peace;
from the business of life
I find some release.
For the Heaven`s cry out
through day and through night
of the Glory of God,
the Father of Lights.
So, though you feel rushed
and when you walk you look down
look up at the Heavens
for His love doth abound.
Yea, the stars in their place
speak of Abraham`s sons
and daughter`s by faith
of which you are one.
Again of those clouds
which slowly do pass
they speak of God`s timing
which to us is not fast.
Indeed, what the Good Lord has promised
is well on its way,
in His perfect timing
as we trust and obey.
So don`t lose your hope
or give in to despair,
take note of the clouds
way up there in the air !

Pauper`s Pictorial Pick Part :
A Showa era Ojisan is holding the hands of a young boy and girl while all three look in the direction of a diamond Mt. Fuji. The heart shaped sun emblazoned with a cross may be seen as setting as an ominous black cloud approaches, signaling the potential climax of the heartfelt cries of Christians throughout the centuries. However, what may seem to be a sunset, may very well be, a SONrise indeed ! This may apply to any people of any nation !
“Juxtaposition” At some time in my life, I admit, I`ve heard about Him through mass media, church, family, acquaintance or friend. The words that they`d speak like love, mercy and grace were truly attractive but you see, I had to save face... What would my family think if I was really to try and seek this God-man, named Jesus, who for sinners, did die. And of my community and culture, I must conform. I can`t stand out or be different I must maintain the norm. Yet, all of my own effort to get and to be pales in comparison to His love on Calvary`s tree. Yes, there`s just something about Him that draws and attracts if I could only step forward and never, ever look back. A.B.Adams May 16, 2021 Sunday
His Offer Still Stands…
A very warm and hearty welcome from PSP & IUA !
Whether you mistakenly landed here, or found this site, perhaps, after hearing of it `through the grapevine,` I truly hope and pray that your time spent here is well met.
That is, I truly hope and pray that you may find some small thing to help you get up, get back, carry on or just finish strong…
After all, `The Way` of the first century is still the only Way, today.
Sincerely Yours,
A.B.Adams
