Martin's Story
Living in Bella Vista, Arkansas
Married Sharon A. Stohr, who graduated from El Cajon High School, Class of 1962, on 2/28/1970.
We both retired in the year 2000, Sharon from K-6 Sub-Teacher, St. Charles, Missouri School System, and I from the National Weather Service. Active Duty U. S. Army 1963 - 1965.
I wrote this for and to my wife, Sharon.
To you from me,
If God should take Home,
You or me,
One before the other,
Wait patiently knowing there the other will be.
Knowing the heart of the other,
Will feel the time between is more than an eternity,
For neither knows His plans for the other.
But His love built between over the years of life together.
Knows the other will always be there for the other,
And between now and then until we see each other again
I'll be loving you,
Love,
Me.

I wrote this, because it is what I belive!
God Made Himself Evident
God made Himself evident,
Within us, by giving all Free Will.
By this, He created all humanity as moral beings,
Because, without personal freedom,
Without free will, no free choice, without freedom,
There is no such thing as either human moral action
Or moral responsibility.
One also cannot have a meaningful love for life today,
Or Hope for tomorrow,
By Faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ, to lead the way,
Because, everything would be predetermined,
Therefore, nothing would matter.
When we believe all humans are free, meaningful, significant,
And moral beings,
Because, all of these are incompatible with a chance origin,
Then we will believe that a purposeful God created them that way.
How you view the origin of humanity
Will control how you view the nature of humans.
Our own actions show that at some deep level,
We know a personal God created all humans as moral beings,
By giving all Free Will,
From Adam's creation to the very last human birth,
The moment time will be no more at His command,
God has made Himself evident within us.
Lord , touch my heart and purify my thoughts with Your Light,

Almost Persuaded, Nonbeliever, or Atheist,
One in the same,
For they are the lost on Judgment Day,
Only on earth they are found,
They live and work in every walk of life the world around.
They believe not in or of God,
For they hear His Word and follow not.
They live for today in the world of self,
And they care not for what awaits
On Judgment Day for the ones
Who mock and hear Him not,
For by His Word they will know
The Great I Am, and Jesus Christ, His Son,
The one who paid the price of all sins for all upon The Cross,
And the completion of those Words they mock and hear not,
For on Judgment Day, every head will bow, every knee will kneel,
And every tongue will confess
"That Jesus Christ is Lord and Praise His Holy Name,"
For it is written in the Words they mock and hear not,
And by these Words they will know
And He will know them not.
Not one almost persuaded, nonbeliever, or atheist,
Will ever be found in the world below,
Forever in Hell, one moment late now lives no disbelief.
Even Satan and the fallen angels know and believe
The God and the Words they mock,
For Satan makes battle and wars against
With followers who are known only as the lost,
On earth they can only be found,
For in Hell all believe and not one Word is ever mocked,
They know now, for all cry out the loneliness, within their heart,
One moment late, because of disbelief or hate!
I pray, you take that moment now to kneel before The Lord,
Who gave all, for the sins of all, in love upon Calvary'Âs Cross,
When His shed blood cleansed away and covered the sins of all,
Forgiven, Forgotten, Forever by God'Âs Loving Grace,
And change your heart within to believe, receive, and accept Him.
Leave the sins of the past at the Cross to walk in His Light,
For free will was given, and one choice to forever make,
To believe or not!
What lies beyond life's bounds is for eternity, my friend,
I pray that you're not one moment late on Judgment Day!
Lord, make me whole in You and a reflection of Your Love to the Lost,
