Love again ~Inspirational Poem~ Do you need to heal?



For all those who have been hurt and didn’t think they could love again;
you can. With God all things are possible.

There are times when God will put someone in our life that has a heart after him; however, because of deep rooted wounds from our past we don’t see that person. In some cases those wounds are so deep we don’t even know they are there. It takes a really special person to persevere with someone who is in that place of emotional and deep rooted anxiety. This poem was put on my heart for all of those women and men who have been hurt and didn’t think they would ever be able to love again. God doesn’t want us to be in that place. He called us for a much deeper purpose than to live in the past of yesterday’s wounds and disappointments. Rise up. It’s time to be healed, delivered and set free.


The method is simple; Seek God, Be Real, Be Healed; Receive your deliverance, Let Go, Let God. Forgive and live.

Love is a gift from God; whether the next relationship works out or not, don’t ever cease to be the person God called you to be because of deep rooted emotional hurt. Let it Go, Let God and keep moving.


Although, this poem was written from a woman’s perspective, it is also for men as well. It is from a Christian woman’s heart to a man of God that she beat up with hurtful words of misunderstanding, hurt and pain that she didn’t even realize were there. After all was said and done, the woman was able to heal because she allowed God to show her what was going on inside of her; by being honest with God, she was able to be honest with the man as well.


 Have any of you ever been there or still there? You don’t have to be; it’s a new day. Read Psalm 139: 1-14 – O Lord, thous has searched me and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down and art acquainted with all my ways.




Love Again.


I don’t always say things the right way,
Today is a new day,
I didn’t know from the start
That one day you would have my heart
I can honestly say
I wouldn’t have it any other way
There are times when I rant and rave
From the debt of my inner emotions; I don’t behave
The way a person in love should
It doesn’t mean that I would
Ever want to be without you
I know that my love for your is true; without you I’m blue.
I wasn’t sure at first how to deal with what I was feeling
I am still healing
From the hurt, the pain, the rejection, the disappointment
I wanted to believe that you were the real thing
Yet inside, I thought what if He too turns out to be a ding a ling
Than what,
Praise God that He is above all of that
I know how to pray
To listen to what God would Say,
God said I needed to heal, to listen, and to understand
That you are only a man
A man with a servant’s heart
A heart to do the right thing
You are no ding a ling
Life is full of challenges, heartbreaks and disappointments
God doesn’t give plans with dents
His plan is concise and to the point
He doesn’t miss a beat in His Joints
Nothing happens by chance
Can I have this dance?
I don’t want to loose you because of foolish words
I choose to put the pain of yesterday behind to face today with you on the wings of a beautiful bird,
Like an eagle that soars high
At times He must go low to seek out His prey
Yet He soars again higher than ever before out of the grey
I write all of this to say that I want to soar higher than an eagle with you
This isn’t a game
I pray you still feel the same.
You don’t speak in tongues
But you sure know how to sing and write a praise Song
That’s good enough for me
You are saved, sanctified and set Free
Jesus loves you with a passion
Thank God I’m not a kardashian
You are a Christian striving for God’s heart
I knew that from the start
I said I didn’t want to marry you
That wasn’t true
Once again I lashed out from the pain and hurt
Than I felt like dirt
Today is a new day
I don’t want to go on this way,
I don’t know if you feel the same
This isn’t a game,
I still love you
I pray you still love me too.
I love you with all my heart.

When Resolutions fail.

Happy New Year everyone!

Many of us make New Year resolutions that we fail to keep. I have learn to just say God draw me nearer to you and show me your will. I know with God that all things are possible. By allowing God's will to be done in our lives, we will find good success.

Joshua 1:8 This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

I pray many blessing for the year 2012 for all of us. May our ways be pleasing unto the Lord. Much love in Jesus name.

Who is Real

As I return from my recent trip to Louisiana to put my mother to rest, I found myself reflecting on many things.  My mother was a woman full of beauty.  She walked in the fruits of the spirit which are love, joy, peace, goodness, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, longsuffering and self-control.  I wasn’t raised by my mother but I saw her fruits and came to know her as a woman of integrity, honor and wisdom.  I saw her fruits from afar.  She was the real deal.  She didn’t pretend or lie.  Her yea was yea and her ne was ne.  A person knew whom they were dealing with.  What you saw is what you got. 

As time as elapsed, things have changed.  It’s so hard now a day’s to know who is real or what is real.  Jeremiah 7:10 reads “ The heart of man is desperately wicked and who can know it except for God.”  I find this to be true.  Praise God that everything Hidden will be revealed.  God sees everything.  He knows our true fruits.  A person is defined by their fruits.  They can say many things, but in the end it’s action that portrays their fruit.
 
I pray that we will seek the fruits of the spirit and let God be the head of our lives.  As we learn to surrender our will daily to the almighty God, the fruits of the spirit will become evident in our lives.  When we walk in the fruits of the spirit, no lie or tongue raised against us will prevail.  Let our light so shine, so that the whole world may see and be drawn to our heavenly father which is heaven. 

Many blessings.

2011 Thanksgiving Prayer & Poem




There's more to thanksgiving than eating turkey and stuffing once a year.  Everyday we wake up is a day to be thankful.   Jesus washed the feet of His disciples prior to His crucifixion.  This was a sign of love and humility.  Jesus death brought life to all of us.  His blood was offered as atonement for our sins; by His blood our minds, bodies and souls are nourished.  His blood makes us whole for His glory.  In all things let us count it all joy rejoicing at the sacrificial offering that was given to us through the precious blood of Jesus Christ. 
Let everyday be a day of thanksgiving.
As we open up our hearts and minds today to the realization that Christ died for our sins, let us rejoice in the goodness of this day.  This is the day the Lord has made.  A day to be thankful for everything around us.  Let us examine ourselves as God examines us so that we can be all that we are called to be.  Let our light so shined that the whole world will see.  Let us be thankful for this day and all that may come.  We rejoice in the fact that we have been blessed with another day of mercy, grace, forgiveness, redemption, salvation, deliverance and love abides.  Let us walk in love this day.

Where is God? Dale Birdsong Anointed Gifts

I count it all joy to share the love of God with the world; however, I am learning that not everyone feels the same way I do about God.   The joy of the Lord is my strength.  I can honestly say that this is the truth.  I don't have any control over the emotions or feelings of other people; I have no desire to have control over them.  The circumstances and testimonies I share are my own.  My life hasn't been a bowl of cherries with whip cream on the top.  Through it all I still count it all joy to know that without God I would be dead.  God's grace and mercy is why I am able to write about His unconditional love not only for me but for all His creations. 


Have you ever felt that you were alone with no one to call on?  I was fortunate enough to be raised in a home that stood on the word of God.  I didn't always understand it, but I knew He was real.  It wasn't until later in my life that I began to really desire to know Him more.  I wanted to have a personal relationship with Him.  He was always there.  It was His voice that I heard when I was in trouble and needed help.  He would whisper to me what to do.  I would do it and things worked out.  The stories are too numerous to write in this blog, but I can honestly say once again like it states in Jeremiah 33:3 "Call upon me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things you do not know."
Over the years, I called on Him for many things; He was faithful to His word.  I didn't always get the answer I wanted but it was what I needed.  There were times when I didn't understand why I didn't get what I asked for.  I understand now.  I learned that God knows what is best for my life. 


Life is full of trials and tribulations;that's for sure.  God in His infinite wisdom was humble and allowed us to have free will.  He never forces Himself on anyone.  It is a choice.  He even gave the angels free will.  That is evident in Lucifer making a choice to seek His own glory rather than continue giving glory to God.  I choose to serve the Lord with all my heart, mine and soul.  It is truly the greatest choice I have ever made in my life.  I'm an imperfect human being that needs God; I need Him every second of the day.  I'm not afraid to share my love for Him, but more importantly His love for all of us. 


Attached to this short blog is one of many inspirational writings that were written to glorify God.  It is from my book From the Mountaintop Of God's Love Theses Verses Flow.  "Everywhere I look."


I pray that it will bless anyone that reads or shares it with a touch of our loving God.  He created heaven and earth.  He created us.  What choice are you making today?  Look around you.  God's beauty is everywhere.

How single mom of three kept her house out of foreclosure & received a reduced payment while unemployed

Learn how to keep your house out of foreclosure and get a reduce mortgage in recession.  Sound biblical principals that worked for this single laid off corporate mom.

How does this story begin?  Like any other person in America, I suppose.  I graduated from college many years ago, landed dream jobs, (ok just kidding).  They weren’t dream jobs, but they were good jobs with good pay and people that I loved working with.  Yes there was drama, fatigue, the normal stuff you go through on some jobs, but there was also freedom, honesty, favor and also a lot of spiritual war fare.  However, through it all God took care of me.

Twenty-five years later, I got the pink slip or so to say from Corporate America, but not from God.  My work for the Lord is evolving in ways I could have never imagined. I’m now a Reverend.  I’m happier than I have ever been pursuing my passion with the Lord at the helm of my ship. 

Are you unemployed now?  What are your ambitions?  How long have you been working?  Are you a recent college graduate?  Are you use to the six figure income and are now being offered commission jobs, or lower wages for your experience?  Does it seem as if the world has gone mad?  

Sometimes, I feel as if the world has gone mad.  I see so many lower paying jobs, yet for some reason the cost of living continues to rise.  Go figure.  What is this all about?   

What are you doing to keep your head above water or so to say in this day and age?

 Sign on to my website at www.anointedgifts.net and find out how this single mom of three tall giant sons kept her house out of foreclosure and received a reduced mortgage while unemployed.  Glory to God!
