*THREE GIFTS FROM GOD*

      I was seventeen years old when my girlfriend at the time told me that I was going to be a dad. With those words my life changed I took a step back and looked at my life and quickly realized that I was in no place to be a parent heck I was barely living myself heck I am a kid. Caught up in my own activities with friends and school no money, no job I felt like a fish caught and thrown up on the shore trying to make my way back into the water just flopping around not knowing what was about to happen. I had no one to turn to for advice I was alone little did I know that I wasn't alone at all GOD had my hand leading me into the paths of righteousness it was just my decisions that needed to be changed.
       I told my sister first and she was very supportive telling me congratulations and that she couldn't wait to be an aunt. My best friend Marty was second to know he was also supportive and excited for me. Every one I told was happy for me even my Grandpa who I thought would have grilled me for being to young but he was proud that he was going to be a Great Grandpa. Telling my dad was the hardest so hard in fact that I didn't tell him for six months in the pregnancy. It was that feeling of rejection and disappointment that was hanging over me because I knew that he didn't wanting me following in his footsteps having a kid at a young kid at a young age. When I told him he said just that I was to young but he was still there to support me.
       I started working at Hershey Foods that summer making money when and where I could I was serious about being a dad and wanted to support my son. My grandpa passed away two months before Brandon was born it was a very tuff time for my family and I. He is and was the rock of our family Robert Schlosser you are missed by all who had the privilage of knowing you. When Brandon was born I became a very happy dad and still am to this day.
       Well alot has happened these past seven years I have had my ups and my downs becoming a man of GOD and a stronger father along life's journey. I have been blessed over and over again to many times for me to sit here and write at this moment. I now am happily married with a seven year old son and a three year old step daughter. I came home from work 4/20/2011 a Wednesday and was meet at the door by my beautiful wife Tara she had the biggest smile on her face and a glow around her that I could clearly see. "We are pregnant"! I felt Love instantly flow through my soul I am so excited about being a father of a new baby. Whether it is a boy or a girl I am very thankful that GOD has planned this to be in my life once again with a woman who I am truly in Love with.
       
        Three gifts from GOD I am very blessed to have
         GOD seen it fit for me to be a dad
        I know that I am not perfect but everyday strive to be
         GOD has rebuilt this broken man
         a broken vessel from a dying land
       To bless him with kids to teach the Truth of who GOD is
         This is a day to remember a day when GOD looked down on me
        To bless his servant with a child from above
           Thanks be to GOD who shows us all True LOVE.... DRE


                      

*Strength To Carry My Cross*

  LORD im hurtin deep inside the only place where you can see. I feel like im torn down agian with the chains of sin and misery. How can this be when I am clean? Mean and heart full of hate, rage from times of past O GOD how long will this pain last? I search all around and see whats going wrong why am I tripping every time I begin to walk on.

"NO" Wheres my Cross at? I look at my shoulders and it is'nt thier "NO" Wheres my Cross at? I cant find it anywhere. Wheres my cross at? Cant belive ive been going on. Wheres my cross at? Im hurt and all alone. LORD where has it gone?

GOD I am falling down on my knees cryin out "please" save me from this nightmare the one I can hardly bear. Frightful images fill my mind and hate fills my heart O GOD I am cold in the dead of day staring up at your brightest star going blind by its rays without my Cross O GOD I have lost my way. This world is dying from all the sin that has infected it no place for us to live thats why we lie dying face upon the ground returning to the dust from where we first was found. Unworthy are we all but by GOD's  LOVE we have been saved, the Blood of the Lamb JESUS CHRIST GOD in the Flesh is more than enough to fill this emptiness.

"NO" Wheres my Cross at? I look at my shoulders and it is'nt thier "NO" Wheres my Cross at? I cant find it anywhere. Wheres my cross at? Cant belive ive been going on. Wheres my cross at? Im hurt and all alone. LORD where has it gone?

On my knees crawling I see my cross high upon a ridge to far for me to reach because im weighed down by vast emptiness. I am hurting more than I ever have this pain to hard to bear O GOD im living in a nightmare. I give it all to you JESUS all of this pain all of this want all of this no and all of this yes, save me O LORD from this vast emptiness.

Then I hear a voice sweet as could be calling out to me, LORD im not worthy to bear that cross anymore, LORD im not worthy just let me be, LORD im not worthy I am way to far from thee. I am fallen and have lost my way cant you see this blood on me?

Suddenly my voice began to fade as his LIGHT came over me now im overwhelmed by his rays and quickly begin to see. Now I got my Cross back and its hanging over me as my SAVIOR says follow me....

Thank you JESUS for always bein thier to shower this man of dust with LOVE that is overwhelming. Thank you GOD for all that you do not just for my family but for all. Wake up o world, wake up from your daydream and GOD will save you as he always saves me.... GLORY be to JESUS CHRIST my GOD forever and always.....LOVE ya....DRE

Beaten but not Broken (SOLDIERS of CHRIST)

Ephesians6: ¹⁰Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.¹¹Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.¹²For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.¹³Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.¹⁴Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;¹⁵And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;¹⁶Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.¹⁷And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:¹⁸Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

The Battle is raging forth day by day just because we dont witness this kind of evil in America. Brothers and sisters of Christ are being killed because they wont deny our GOD. PRAY for them those who are on the front lines faceing this kind of attack while we are in the back living as nothing is even happening. I am tired of seeing high and mighty Christians who are affriad to get thier hands a little dirty with the affairs of back yard evangelizing. Look this world acts like its dead already to affraid to face the truth                                     

 JOHN 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

Go on live in your own little bubble where everything is just fine their is no persucution and you do what you want when you want to do it. Be of the world enjoy this time that you have now to fullfil the pleasures and needs that plague your mind.

Their is only one way to salvation and thats through the BLOOD of CHRIST which he has shed for you at CALVARY.  John 3:5-8 ⁵Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.⁶That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.⁷Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.⁸The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Please GOD be with my brothers and sisters who are being killed for your names sake. Be with them O GOD cover them with your Wings protect them as they stand in the front of the battle lines agianst satan. Father I pray for them for they truly Glorify you, give them strength thank you JESUS, thank you for being with those who Love and serve you faithfully.

(LOST on This ROAD That Leads TO HELL)

 The following lyrics come from Gorilla Zoe feat. LiL Wayne the song is called LOST before i was saved this used to be one of my favorite songs and for many reasons but the main reason was that the lyrics described me down to the T. Without even knowing it I was on the road to Hell until the Grace of GOD saved me from this path, this labyrinth, this maze. Their is no one that cannot be saved no matter what cituation you face GOD is always in front of you showing you the way so that you do not have to be lost, dont be lead by the blind into Hell.. Im Praying for Gorilla Zoe, LiL Wayne and all who are Lost, Love you all may the LORD JESUS CHRIST OUR GOD deliver you from the hand of the evil one...The words underlined and in blue are my own they represent a christian who is no longer lost but

has been found and saved by the BLOOD of CHRIST...

Walking around looking for a way, but no one tells me which way to go. I'm caught up in a world, a Labyrinth, a maze. Where yes ma'am, could easily be no, I ask them no questions, they give me no answers.Following the wise, but they're walking in pampers. Give me a cigarette, smoking my cancer,
drink the pain away but I still have no answer.
I'm lost on a road,don't know which way to go. I'm losing my mind, losing control, of the wheel, and I'm swerving on and off the road.

Running to the Alter looking for place because its to crowded, Pastor pointing to a place for me to go. Im caught up in The WORD, The WAY, The TRUTH, The LIFE. Where "yes" are cries out to GOD, I ask millions of questions, He leads me to Billions of answers. Following the path of righteousnes for his names sake. Saved me from cigarettes, and chewing wich cause cancer, I Drink the pain away with his Blood during commuion. I'm found walking on his road which will lead me home.

 I'm lost on a road,but survival is a must. Don't know who I can trust,I'm living in a rush, don't understand the fuss,My brains about to bust.I think I'm losing it,I might be losing it,I just might lose-Am I losing my mind?I'm so confused, I don't know what to do, I need a clue before I run out of time.Am I losing it?
Am I losing it?I think I'm losing,I'm losing my mind. Am I losing it?Am I losing it?I think I'm losing,
I'm losing my mind

I am found like Paul on Damascus road, living for CHRIST is a must. JESUS the "I AM" that I Trust, I'm living each day like its my last, growing ever closer to GOD, My hearts about to bust filled with so much LOVE. Just keep praying, just keep on praying, GOD is clearing out my mind. No longer confused, I now know what to do, GOD called me out of the darkness before I ran out of Time. I have JESUS, I have JESUS and im overwhelmed all the time no longer do I live in my mind.

(Lil Wayne)
I..I..I Imma need counseling, I lost my mind and still haven't found it. I used to be so well rounded, but now, I tiptoe on hell's boundaries.F.Baby AKA Crazy, Trapped in a maze therefore I am amazing.
Glock be the doc, I'm just a patient, And even with navigation,I'm lost on a... road...road..road..road.
road.road.road.And I...I...I don't know what's wrong with me, but imma keep that styrofoam with me,
keep that styrofoame, styrophome, styrophome.I'm lost on a road,And I don't know what's wrong with me.Gorilla Zoe is on this song with me, He must be gone with me.

GODS Light is my Guide, going to church to refresh my mind so Glad he Found me. Im not perfect but now my Life is in his hands my GOD who is. I used tiptoe on hell's boundaries im so thankful that I was saved by the BLOOD of CHRIST. Released from those chains, A path of righteousness before my feet. GOD has provided me a job to put food on the table for my family to eat. It doesnt take a navigation system to raise your hands to JESUS and call upon his name GO on ask for forgiveness least you be ashamed. I know whats wrong with ya' You've placed GOD in the back and have taken up all the Glory be glad you aint living in a shack. Go on keep that glock handy but its not going to save you from satans hell far worse place than any worldly jail.

Chorus:  I think I'm losing it, I might be losing it, I just might lose- Am I losing my mind? And I'm so confused, I don't know what to do, And I need a clue, before I run out of time. Am I losing it?Am I losing it? I think I'm losing, I'm losing my mind- Am I losing it? Am I losing it? I think I'm losing, I'm losing my mind

(Gorilla Zoe)
I'm making this money, Just to go spend it. Living the good life, Hope nobody ends it.But who are you kidding? And who are you lying to? You know if they want you, best believe they gon' find you.
I'm lost on a road, And there's no one to talk to.There's no where to run to. I'm going in circles,Talking to myself, Got me blazing this purple.

Money is nothing it comes and goes I personally want something that lasts forever even after life on this world is over and that is the gift of eternal life that is only given to us by GOD. I am now living the good life and would never want it any other way. The truth is that we are always being attacked by evil weither you are saved or not but we who are saved stand in Victory as the battle wages forth. Drugs are only temporary replacements of what you really earn for and that is The HOLY GHOST that only JESUS can fill you with. This world is dying at a rapid pace you have the decision to make weither you are going to follow JESUS or be left out on the road all alone losing your mind and souls if you dont have CHRIST you are lost. Come to him, reach out to him, cry unto him redemption is one direction and thats up!  

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. KJV.
