It may not always seem natural,
to do things that are admiral.
But actions fall in place,
with help from God’s grace.

Silent Walk – (by Tom Balistreri)
As I trek,
along a path,
or on a sidewalk,
in cities of glass,
my voice is silent,
and yet I pray,
and thank you Lord,
for all Your ways.
What Profit A Man? – (by Tom Balistreri)
To gain the world,
but to lose one’s soul,
has no profit,
down in Sheol.
To possess earthly kingdoms,
moments in history,
then a life of regret,
for eternity.
The Solid Base – (by Tom Balistreri)
You are my Rock,
my solid base.
Bestowing love,
and abundant Grace.
I long to go,
to Your place,
and gaze upon,
Your Holy face.
We Make It Complicated – (by Tom Balistreri)
We make life so complicated,
by living life,
our own way.
It is all so much easier,
when we do
what God says.
In The Stillness – (by Tom Balistreri)
In the stillness,
in the silence,
in His rest,
when at peace.
You will hear,
God whisper,
the answers,
that you seek.
Back From The Precipice – (by Tom Balistreri)
We stand upon a precipice.
Gazing from a great height.
Yet we find our way from danger,
by walking in God’s light.
Artificial Ways – (by Tom Balistreri)
The world displays,
artificial ways,
and tries to persuade,
a life buried in haze.
But there is great disparity,
to reality in clarity,
and walking in the light,
when one lives in Christ.
What Profit A Man? – (by Tom Balistreri)

for eternity.
Not A Copycat – (By Tom Balistreri)
Jesus was not a copycat,
of philosophers before.
Others promised enlightenment,
as He, but so much more.
of philosophers before.
Others promised enlightenment,
as He, but so much more.
Some say His salvation,
in neither unique, or odd.
But He alone laid claim,
to be the Son of God.
