Numerous thoughts all to what intent
Looking for that which can truly satisfy my hearts’ content
Seeing there is so much left undone
All seems so enormous, how do I start this one? Continue reading

THE STRENGHT OF MY HEART
I moaned in a rejected hour of lurch,
Bitterly feeling the ray of my burden scorch.
I mopped standing in a boat of affliction,
Driven by a sale of storm into the land of confusion. Continue reading
FOOLISH TRUTH
Probably would start like a joke so funny
And you might have taken it for granted ignorantly
But when you’re faced with the truth and its reality
It makes nothing of the facts and notions of what life is
It betrays the knowledge learnt and gathered over the years
You may run from it, blot it out or try to ignore it
Yet it seems so real, too serious, sometimes even life threatening
It challenges the very depths of our understanding
And though facing it poses too much to handle
It always remains what it is, the truth.
Yes the truth we must face and acknowledge we must its reality
Be it now in this present world or in eternity
It holds the answers to our puzzles and questions that we seek
And no matter how cliché, petty, foolish, unwise, uneducated even unrealistic
You can be certain that it stands sure as the truth.
1st Corinthians 1:25-27
John 3:16 – “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life.”
This is one truth we run away from although it does hold the answers we truly seek. The devil’s greatest trick is to make man live in a fool’s paradise called a normal life but no matter how foolish it sounds the +truth is here for all to see. JESUS SAVES
BELIEVE
Seeing, they say, is believing…
So, what about knowing?
What about discerning?
If life is all about sight,
The blind will not smile,
and their feelings won’t ignite. And believe they never right
Believing is more than the eyes..
It is much deeper within. Continue reading
MY COMPLETENESS

I searched myself ..

A comfort zone,
A fearless confidence,
An unending love.. Continue reading
CHANGING TIMES
As I look down memory lane I remember
Like a little shrub at the dawn of sprouting
My admission, left me shouting
Alas there was yet another route to explore
Just behind the great gate of learning before me Continue reading
I’VE KNOWN SIN
Don’t stare at me like that…
Lest the creator lose his wages…
and I become a mirror of my past.
Cast your eyes sternly,
Place your gaze appropriately,
Do I really look like a saint?
Well, I am one today.
But, once I was lost, Continue reading
THANK YOU
I have known the Father’s love for me
God has been good to me
He’s been good.
Through it all, He has been there for me
God loves me
I didnt earn it
I didnt bribe Him for it
He just loves me.
Years roll by,
Situations come up
Giants threaten me…
But, He has always fought for me…
I do get scared at times,
But, He has always comforted me…
Securing family and friends for me…
Providing for me,
Protecting me,
Building me…
Doing it all for me.
If all I can say is ‘Thank you JESUS!’
If all I can say is;’Thank you Lord, God Almighty!’
Then, I better say it well…
Cos’ my God has truly been good to me.
