I do have some struggles in my life and I've learned to place my complete trust in God on that matters. Thank God, when I trust Christ, I'm just useless clumps of clay that the Lord is trying to shape into a masterpiece for Himself. No matter how far I backslide, He will never throw me aside, every time I "blow it", He starts over and begins shaping me again. I'm awe-struck that my Savior is patient with me as He molds and shapes my life and He never gives up on me. The Lord says in Jeremiah 18:6: "O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel". Because I love Jesus Christ with all my heart, I intend to live a life that's pleasing to Him. I love writing short poems and it is therapeutic for me. I just let go of my feelings and put them onto paper, like feelings of sadness and happiness, even love and fantasy. I'm providing two of my poems that I would like to share with you.
A Tour In Hell
by Linda
I'm lying on a chaise longue
Beside the swimmimg pool
With a Holy Bible in my hands
But I toss it onto the ground
Cause there's no such things as God or Hell
I close my eyes to take a wink
And I'm taken to another dimension
I'm in the wings of a gigantic angel
Who is flying high in the heavens
As I look down to see what's below
I see a huge numbers of charred souls
Flopping and bobbing in an ocean of lava
They are gnashing their teeth in writhing pain
And I cover my ears against their deafening screams
The cloud is raining fire at them
And the air is filled with stifling odor of sulfur
An angel of God looks at me with tears in his eyes
And says "This is your final destination"
I scream as he drops me down below
And I'm flopping in an ocean of lava
I see a demon in black robe flying towards me
And says "Welcome home, my child"
"Why am I here?" I ask the demon
"Because you reject the blood of Jesus" he says
Then he cackles as he flies away
I scream and my eyes open again
I'm flopping in the swimming pool
So I swim back to the deck
And my heart rate quickens with fear
I fall down to my knees and weep
I lift up my eyes towards the clear sky
And I give my heart to Jesus
My heart is blanketed with pure joy
As the peace of God engulfs me

The Two Doors
by Linda
I was driving behind the wheel
And my friend was on the passenger side
We were going to visit a church
But it just went by so quick
That we did not know what happened
Cause we were in a different place
And we did not know where we were
We saw two doors in this vacant room
The white door was on the right
And the black door was on the left
We did not know what lied beyond the doors
Then an angel of God with four wings
Materialized in front of our eyes
With a big white book in his hands
He asked for my friend's name
With a puzzled look on her face she gave him her name
As the angel opened the book to search for her name
He gave her a sad look when her name was not found
Then the black door was being opened
Cause a heavy wafts of black smoke
And the heat was too great we backed away
Then we saw a demon with a vicious look on his face
Came out and grabbed my friend's arm
And dragged her to the black door as she screamed
I was running after her trying to rescue her
But an angel of God grabbed my arm
And said "She lacks the blood of Jesus"
And then he asked for my name
With tears in my eyes I gave him my name
As the angel opened the book to search for my name
He smiled when my name was found
Then the white door was being opened
And I could hear the beautiful music
And I caught a glimpse of a golden city
Then I saw Jesus in blazing white robe
Came out and said "Come on in, my child"
And I entered the eternal presence of my Lord

Are you saved? If you die tonight without Jesus Christ, what lies beyond the black door would be your final destination, because God doesn't allow sins into the white door unless you accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. That's the reason why He came to earth to die on the cross for you and me to pay the price of our sins, but if you reject Him, then you would be sent to the black door which leads to Hell. It's not where Jesus wants you and me to be. Salvation is so simple, all you have to do is just ask Jesus. He is only a prayer away!!
