Dale Treadway

Dale Treadway
 
Mr Treadway a good man
A man to be missed
He had a plan
And he did exist
 
He left me one truth
I do not know if anyone knew
From my youth
Mr Treadways worldview
 
Working in my backyard
We talked of business
My businesses marred
And here came his wiseness
 
Mr Treadway asked me
Are you a believer in Christ
Yes I try to be
A good theist
 
He pushed me deeper
Is it the most important thing for you
Are you a Bible truth keeper
And Mr Treadway gave me a clue
 
A clue to life
A clue to worth
A clue to follow
A clue to pursue
 
He gave me examples
People who have strived
By attending Bible classes
And their lives revived
 
I did not repent that day
I did not turn to God
I did not sing hallelujah
I did not fall to my knees
 
But his words
Changed my path
In two years
Repent I did
His words spurred
Paved my way
Along with others conferred
The Gospel is not childs play
 
I found the Lord
I found a better journey
I found a Savior
I found everlasting peace
 
Thank you
For your sincere instruction
Definitely it is the glue
To my reproduction
 
Not perfect
Not the best
Not faultless
Not ideal
 
But a true believer
So so rigorous
With Holy Spirit fever
To be so so vigorous

Disguested

Idols of relaxation. Idols of relationships. Idols of fads. Idols of worship. Idols of ourselves.

What is wrong with us? Why do we self indulge? How can we not see our flaws.

There are too many gods in our world. We worship too many idols.

Not your flaws but my flaws. We need more self awareness and self analyzation.

The question is what is wrong with me? And how do I fix myself?

Fix myself to love. Fix myself to care for others. Fix myself to celebrate the good. Fix myself to worship and glorify the one true God.

The one true God is the only way to fix ourselves, our family, our friends, our neighbors, our city, our state, our country and our world. The one true God can fix anything and everything.

Start today:

1. Stop blaming others

2. Repent, turn from your self worship and sin

3. Search for the positive and use it to encourage

4. Do not give up. Good will overcome evil. Light will over power darkness

5. Be kind to others especially if you are stronger, wealthier, previledged, spoiled, successful, intelligent, gifted. Pull others up.

6. Celebrate the good positive things in life

7. Be thankful for the little good positive things in life

8. Thank God to be alive

Yorktown Girls – Buddies

Yorktown Girls

How we met
Who really knows
Henry I bet
Friendships arose
 
We traveled every weekend
To Yorktown park
Some girlfriends and boyfriends
The monument was our landmark
 
We met in the parking lot
And talked and drank
We never fought
Along the York riverbank
 
My senior year
Leslie Ann Lisa Della Sharon
Were in our sphere
On and off the telephone
 
We went to parties
We went snow sledding
We went to games
We went to movies
 
They were our Yorktown buddies
And they were adventurous and fun
We did do our High School studies
High School and College everyone
 
We moved on with life
We see each other on occasion
None made a Poquoson man’s wife
Never part of the equation
 
Never forget our escapades
Life so easy and carefree
Yesteryear never fades
I hope you all agree

God is Good

There’s no way to describe how great God is or how much God loves you. I’m sitting at the beach after finishing my mini-book that’s free right now on Amazon and my first book of poetry which is in pre-order on Amazon. I do not have the link to both of them right now but if you go search on Amazon Conrad Birmingham goes right to them. This book is a compilation of my poems for last 10 years s uphowing my life. I guess it’s really an autobiography, but I did not see it that way when I was writing the poems or the book.

I’ve learned a lot from these writing experiences. I’ve learned:

1. Slow down. Enjoy each day. Live this day to the fullest.

2. Everything should be about God. I know that’s hard. I know you can’t be perfect because of Adam and Eve. You need to try to do the best you can and repent of your sins when you can’t be what God wants you to be.

3. Give more than you take. I wish I gave more when I was younger than I took. All of my relationships would have been better and healthier. I know that’s comes through wisdom which comes from the fear of God. Praise the Lord

So in summary?

1. What can you do today right now to make your life better?

2. What can you do right now to give mercy to others and to make their lives better?

3. How can you honor God more right now today, right this second?
