Thanks to Jimmy Lee [ETA] and his wife Judy for this, the third religious poem she wrote. An appropriate time truly as Good Friday is approaching... 

The B.A.R.T.E.R. For My Life

I Believe that this universe is not random

That there is a creator of heaven and earth

The God who created man with free will and freedom

And had their names written in His book of life at birth.

I Acknowledge this world is full of sin and hell-bent

Injustice and evil will tempt all to pay the price

I'm amazed God so loved the world He sent

His son to save all with his supreme sacrifice.

I Receive Jesus who died at the cross for my sin

So I will not perish but have everlasting life

It's simple as that, I can't earn it.. can't win

It's by grace through faith in Christ, not strife.

From wretched sinner I'm released to Transform

My soul tie to Hades Jesus has unknotted

He stands with me to face hardships in any storm

My name from the book of life will never be blotted.

I have life in the Spirit with good news to Evangelise

To tell everyone to think and consider eventually

To say there is no hell is one of the biggest lies

For surely as you're born you'd die to go to your destiny.

Maybe it's sooner than we think the end of time coming

Look around this wretched world and corrupted society

The imminent Rapture caught up with Jesus is my longing

To live in heaven with my creator for all of eternity.

There you have it above put in a  nutshell

This is the B.A.R.T.E.R. of life for you and me

Not just in body but for your soul to be well

I pray you will know The Truth that will set you free.

Many thanks to Judy, whose deep sense of thought, sincerity and love surface in this poem... I am touched by her sensitivity.

As We Grow Older

[Judy Chong-Lee]

As we grow older and nearer the end of our journey on earth

We must consider the possibility of an existence after death

What waits for us on the other side, do we have another birth

Just as we wake up from sleep will we be revived with new breath.

If there is not a place to go where we must give an account totally

Of our thoughts and deeds, everything committed in our life

Why do humans have conscience and a code for morality

To refrain from evil, injustice, violence and all kinds of strife.

Man tries to find a way to live justifying his every end

It's easy to self deceive and cross that blur thin line

The poor and weak we cannot see or we just pretend

Greed and corruption make every good man turn blind.

Who can be mighty enough to take charge of this entire universe

Other than the one who created it from alpha to omega and eternity

Why deny that God exists, that He designed and made us

And His son died on the cross to redeem our divine destiny.

After all that is said and done get ready and prepare

Forget our pride and humble ourselves to the power above

No one will escape judgement if a holy God is to be fair

Lay ourselves at the mercy of Father God who is Love.

All it takes is our acceptance of a free salvation

We can't do enough good to be sinless and not condemned

At the cross of Calvary sin's atonement had completion

The only sacrifice required by God was Jesus the Lamb.

We only need to believe in Jesus alone, and NOT  Jesus plus..

Heaven awaits all who acknowledge Him, only He can save

It's our faith in Christ, by God's grace, need no other fuss

We are heading for heaven not fearing death and the grave.

As forgiven people, born again into the family of God

Our sinful past obliterated the devil cannot take us to hell

Sin no longer our master, freed by our Saviour and Lord

We have faith hope and love, and such good news to tell.

God bless us! 

I think of it everyday. Comment anyone?

When I suggested that she let me publish her lively verses, Mrs. Chong-Lee responded positively. So to all our young once and young ones, please read the very down to earth but soul-stirring lines...

Thank you Judy.

Sharing with my close ones this poem I penned in May 2020 during the lock down. For the inspiration of fellow seniors 🙂.

Getting Old

Age they say is just a number

But the higher I go I seem dumber.

I've never been as old as I am now

To the march of time I must bow.

Simple chores no longer automatic

Auto-pilot programs gone erratic.

Things often get lost or go missing

Tasks to do need constant reminding.

Add on to these my new miseries

The sad pain of physical disabilities.

From birth to death we face life stages

Same for everyone through the ages.

With all our experience and wisdom

Age constraints restrict our freedom.

Since the past is already long gone

Please don't let it keep us forlorn.

The present is really a great gift

To live with joy as we daily drift.

The future is undecided for all

Just be very careful not to fall.

We're here on a wondrous journey

Aspiring to reach our divine destiny.

If there's still a dream or ambition

Go for it... too old for any inhibition.

For many they say life begins at 40

At 70 we could be young (once) as 30.

So cast away the cares every onus

To live these golden years is a bonus.

I want to live well laugh and love much

So my dear friends please stay in touch.
