Christianity Poems
Slayers!!
by Joycelyn Eshun
Myths and speculations of beauty today
Church girls and boys considered out of date
If I am average looking then I fit the description of 'church girl'.
Clothed in rags then my place is the temple.
But unlike our slay queens we slay with purpose
We break down territories and command strongholds.
We present this world a new definition of slayers
Beauty with prayer
Fashion with purpose
We leaving our marks everywhere we go

Jesus Is
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
A light in the dark ages,
Foremost in history's pages;
Ruler of all human hearts,
A subject of all the arts!
Source of all Christmas magic--
Victor over death so tragic!
Doorway to the life eternal,
An everlasting flame internal!

If God
is good,
half the Bible

Debt
by bella harrison
Roll a dice
We're here to win, we pay the price
Carefully sculpted, only
for paradise, our sharp edges diffuse, we bruise,
we lose
Ordained with fire, we chase, we choose
Gently stroking our hair, seduced by avarice
She untangles our bows and tightens our knots - she's confused

Discipleship
by Joycelyn Eshun
Christianity is now considered as a race,
Members all struggling to the finish line without helping their own.
With the passing of time and changing of tides,
Our churches now filled with the notion of 'each one for himself, God for us all'.
But we all a role we must play,
From the pastor to the little child
In the building of the Kingdom of God.
We all might not raise the dead, heal the sick or part the sea,

Psalm 23
by Joseph Ogbonna
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Even when in a famished state I hunt,
In pastures green and lush with abundance,
He renews my spry and exuberance.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
In gardens of drought He will fortune plant.
He leads to quiet pools of fresh water
from which I draw strength and endless laughter.

Loving Hearts Show Kindness
by Evelyn Judy Buehler
Kindness is a thing that gives love its wings. Often it comes
from people you know and love, but sometimes it comes from a
stranger most unexpectedly, surprising the recipient, and even
the giver as well, for how we react to crisis, only time can
tell. A split second act of courage has saved many a life, at
the rescuer's own peril. Loving hearts are caring, feeding the
hungry and caring for the sick. Loving hearts are champions
of humanity, always striving for the best in humankind. The
teachings of Jesus and kindness are in perfect harmony, like
the moon is in harmony with the night.

Oh God
by Joseph Ogbonna
God almighty of generations all,
who did witness great empires rise and fall.
We gladly wait for thy eternal reign,
when saints martyred will beam with smiles unfeigned.
God immortal of centuries ageless,
whose dexterity carved our global ball.
When will thy saints the new earth inherit?
where conduct is guided by thy spirit.
