My dear fellow poets,
I humbly solicit your prayers. Since being on the internet, which has been since April of 1999, I have devoted my entire life to ministering to the needs of others. This I have done JOYFULLY and WILLINGLY because I have a genuine love for the people of God, and I desire to share with them poetically and through the Word of God, all that the Father has so graciously poured into my heart. Let me tell you, since the Lord called me into ministry back in 1986, my life has been an uphill journey in which I've had to walk through fire and swim in mighty deep waters. But in spite of all of that, throughout all of my testings and trials, God has surely kept me and He has always proven Himself to be FAITHFUL in my life.
I sit here now and post this topic because *I* need *YOU*. I know that the prayers of the righteous availeth much, and I've survived in this army of the Lord this long because I know when I need help, and I'm not too proud to ask for it. Don't get me wrong, I ain't about to lay down my sword and give up the fight, Ohhhhh NO! The Holy Ghost is still yet standing up in me big time, but I just need yall to help me understand. 
For the past two months I have dedicated and sacrificed a big part of my life for a very dear special friend of mine. I've known him for 11 years, but we really became good friends about 2 years ago. As of late, I have really been a source of support and strength for him while he's had to deal with some very serious, serious, issues in his life. I've given him the Word of God, offered up my prayers and tears to God on his behalf, and have been there when so-called friends and family were no where to be found. I dare not list individually everything that I have done, especially in the past two weeks. Trust me, I ain't seeking no vain glory....I'm just a servant of the Most High God. What I can't understand saints is, and I'm praying that somebody, (especially you men), can help me to understand this......
How can a person do so much, in love, for an individual, only to have that other individual turn their back on you. (whether it be for a day, a week, a month, or however long). 
Again, don't get me wrong. I've been slapped in my face many, many times spiritually before because of the stand that I take for God, and maybe God is trying to tell me something (Smile). If that be the case, my fellow poets, will you prayerfully seek His Face on my behalf and allow HIM to speak to your hearts concerning this situation. Personally, I'm standing on His Promise, but I am curious as to what He will say to you. Don't worry about hurting my feelings saints....I'ze be a big girl, and I can take the bitter with the sweet.
I love yall....you know I do and I thank God daily for all of the anointed poets that He has so graciously sent into this forum.
Peace & Blessings,
Margie

It takes but just a moment to hear what He will say . . .
So take the time to listen!
Psalms 25:14 - The secret of the Lord is with them that fear Him; And He will shew them His covenant.
Psalms 34:8-9 - O taste and see that the Lord is good: Blessed is the man that trusteth in Him.

What is it really to understand?
I will receive the best if I continue to hold on to God's unchanging hand.
What if he leaves or what if he stays?
Will I be able to live and function day to day.
Time is God's, so is everything under the sun
the longer I worry-i realize it' s no fun
What shall i do is my question for today?
Leave it all to God, watch as well as pray.
Let your mind rest, I give thee peace
All things that you wait on the Lord for-
is truly a treat, treat, treat.
Wheter this means to draw back, give out, chill out, or take the passengers seat
When you let go and let God, you can't be beat, beat, beat

My Dear Sister Margie, where do you stand in the eyes of God
Is His words planted within your heart
Do your Faith rise above your needs
In the Lord do you truly believe
Do you take the time to give Him praise
Have you made your peace with the Lord in these Last Days
Is your loyalty beyond reproach, to temptations do you say no
The cleansing of your soul has it begun
Are you still walking the path of the Son
Is your love for the Lord standing on solid ground
Do you believe that Jesus Christ wears the only crown
Is the Holy Spirit your true paradise,do you understand the meaning behind the sacrifice
Ask yourself are you truly committed to God
Are you thankful for just the little things, holding your ground when things seen to hard
If the answers to these question are (YES) THEN SMILE
There's many more roads you will travel, the Lord will always be with you, He hears your cries
Backs will turn and lies will be told, my dear sister know one has to tell you, your Faith is more powerful than gold
In these Last Days people are changing, and I know you are well aware
God sees your works, He knows how much you care
So fear not my Dear Sister raise your hands to the Father, there no need to worry or even cry
You're a big girl now, so let disappointments pass you by
You're on a mission stay on the path, your rewards will be great, soon the Father will show you a love you've never had
May the Lord hold you tight never letting you go

HELP ME UNDERSTAND
Father God, In your precious son's holy name,
give me the words too say,
comfort this precious one in need this day.
Help me understand, why it is I feel this way...
although you've saved me and I'm free from sin
still I have needs,
I've done so much for others, yet they turn me away
I feel as though I'm on a deserted Isle,
they treat me as a castaway!
Help me understand, I've often prayed for others
many times because I care
I've been down on calloused knees
asking you too intercede.
cried rivers of tears by day
into the wee hours of the night.
and seems I've beat the air.
Lord I feel hurt, used & abused
Still no one there too return the favor....
when I need help, they treat me as a pauper!
Where art thou faithful few?
when my emotions is as a raging storm, and feeling blue
They cast me aside as yesterday's toilet paper
Help Me too Understand, Oh Lord!
I've put on the whole armour from head too toe,
when the enemy attack -- you have my back
but, its not my battle, I'll have to except that fact!
Lord, I'm standing here in a daze...
I'm in pain, in need of love & care
Lord heal my broken heart
remove the fatal dart
Lord your the potter I'm the clay
Answer my prayer -- I'll obey whatever you say!
Your my master --- I'm mere man
you formed and fashioned me with your own hands
I'll obey your command!
Please, lord, comfort and deliver me!
Your my ever present help in time of trouble
wipe the tears from my eyes, upon you I put my trust,
and not toward another human being.
I'll lean not too my own understanding,,,,
upon you I live and move and have my being...
forgive me, for thinking that a man can help me,,,,
when it is you that made me,,,you know me, keep me safe
from the enemies devices!...
Your Holy Spirits' wisdom and knowlege remind....
isnt it true what your word says?
the strong shall bear the infirmities of the weak,,,
what matters the quicksand deep?
you've never allowed me too take another
step further than I should --
Even now oh God,
I know your working it out for my good....
Lenora Love Whiteside
MY DARLING CHILD, MY FRIEND
My darling child, My friend!
wipe away your tears
set aside all your fears
and lend a listening ear-
You feel as though man has done you wrong
and turned you away?
seems you've beg for piece of bread
they'd shown kindness to dogs & Kitten strays
you may say, but lord for them I've prayed
remember these are the last days
Man is but a mere wicked weed
ere too sin continually --
When they petition me on bended knee
they pollute the air when they sneeze
look beyond the cloud too gaze to seek my face
If mere man can't hardly measure up
for they're are always at fault
tell me? why do you think they'd treat you differently?
Come let me show you in the word, what friends & foes
have done too me!!
In the garden of gethsemane
I cried tears and begged my servants to stay awake
they fell asleep wouldnt watch with me too pray
be mindful and careful, man is not the blame
we all have a cross to bare
you been called too do the same,
I was weak in the knees on my way too calvary
could hardly stand
they compelled another man...
too help carry the the heavy load tow
where were my friends?
that sat at the last supper with me?
was for them that I laid down my life
they forsook me, I died alone
friends & loved ones couldn't be found
My friends Kissed and betrayed me
others denied and lied on me
some wagged their heads and were ashamed of me
some simply said nothing and dipped and doubted me
There were no phones back in those days,
I called too the father up above,
I sent a fervent prayer through the air
I loved & forgave my friends anyway
and expect you to do the same-
mothers against daughters
fathers against sons
friends and loved ones battle in court
Folks shall die, by the hand of
those that sucked at their mothers' bosom
Folks shall die, by the hand of
those that came from their fathers' loins
Remember, I've said in my word that these things
would be....
In this world they'd oppress and persecute thee
all these things must surely come too past,
before I show my face again,
But hold out my friend too the end--
How do know that you're identified with Christ?
cuz you have love for souls,
regardless of disappointments,
that man may put you through,
know of a surety that
your of the chosen few
Keep peace with all men --
continue too pray and warn them of there sin
your doing a great job-
don't worry about the mob
stop weeping and crying
and don't you dare sob-
I'm coming back again!
prepare ye the way of the lord,
the kingdom of God is near
come let us all bow done before him
for he is the lord of host
the enemy is an accuser of the brethren
yet he's a defeated foe
all your battles i shall defend
too the one i love the most
he'll try too wage war against you --
toward you he'll attack the most
but lift up your head oh ye gates
be ye lifted up the ever lasting door
for the king of glory shall come in.
Lora Love Whiteside

You Are A Masterpiece
Sometimes it's hard to understand
Why things happen as they do
When we know we're walking with the Lord
And doing all that He's asked us to do
But the painter knows the picture
And what it will look like in the end
As He blends different brushes and colors
And they are shaped by the Master's hand
Rest assured whatever He draws from you
Blending and altering all you will become
As He creates us to look more like Jesus
On God's canvas of blessings from the Son
In the end you will be a masterpiece
Like no other ever seen
As myriads of strokes and alterations
Create a living mural of those redeemed
A picture painted from each ones life story
Uniquely shaped from those reborn
Forming a painted picture to God's glory
Of those who belong to the Lord

You could not have come at a better time with this
I'm in the same situation, and it's far from bliss
Extending your time, your prayers, your money, your heart
Only to have someone tear it apart
But if you can remember your true purpose in life
Why you do what you do, why Daddy allows the strife
What you've extended to this man, was not for him
It was so He could know the love of Christ within
What you've done was to the glory of God
So, you keep pressin' past the pain, even though it's hard
I'm a living witness to how slighted you must feel
And I don't always walk it gracefully, I must reveal
But I keep it before Him and trust Him for healing
And try not to allow myself to get caught up in my feelings
You're an amazing paradigm of the grace of our Lord
You don't know the value of the ministry opportunities you afford
You give so many a place to rest in a poetically peaceful fashion
And you look for nothing in return except that we pass the blessing on
So, I stand in the gap for you and thank you, once again
For taking my mind off my woes and helping me tap in
To the abundance of love that our Father freely gives
To help us help others and teach them how to live
I believe God for the deliverance of your friend from selfish ways
And for rich reward for you in the spirit for the rest of your days.

From the very first time you visited this forum years ago, and have become a part of this family here....you have *always*, and I mean *always* been able to touch my heart in a very special way.
