To all of you poets
down South and up North
West and to the East
whoever you are
whatever your beliefs
I wish you much joy
happiness and peace
for on this one night
at least think no more
of spite, anger and war
sickness, sorrow or grief
for wherever you are
may kindness be the star
that lights all of our ways.
Peace to you, holy poets.
Even though I  have failed you much in my life.
Even though at times, I been faithless to you.
Even though I fail, to obey your Holy word.
Even though I continue to struggle with sin.
Even though , life hurts every single day.
Even though, I at times looked like a hypocrite.
Even though I act like a pharisee at times.
Still your Love covers and wash me clean.
Still your Holy word works on and within me.
With the aid of your Holy Spirit cleansing me.
Faith through the eyes of a child.
Walking the Faith out through obedience.
Yes we do from time to time miss the mark.
But when we sin or fail God, we get back up.
The only one whom was perfect was Jesus.
So there are believers in both parties here.
The only one whom truly knows the heart.
Is the only one quantified to judge any one.
So we fellowship, and allow God to work it out.
If there is a problem, the Christ shall reveal it.
Through the Holy Spirit that dwells within us.
Love one another with Christ Perfect Love.
Though life is hard at best here.
Even the simplest of things seems impossible.
But this life is temporary world compare to the next one.
Just keep trusting , and persevering here till the next.
Because the closest we draw upon his strength here.
The easier this life shall become for us, his people.
The better we can use to reveal him to others here.

I enjoy the hot tub
After my treadmill.
Whilst sitting,
Throne-like,
One notices the thousands of bubbles,
Swirling, twirling, spinning, colliding,
Spreading out like spiralling gallaxies.
Naturally, I play with them,
Briefly, temporarily
Re-direct their path;
But it's pointless.
I recall my dark hour;
When God removed his hand.

Some say the glass is half full
Some say the glass in half empty
They all focus on the job of the glass
No matter the contents
The glass is there
In sadness or happiness
Toiling with duty and abuse
Next time you see a glass
Wrap your hand around it
In comfort
For there is nothing in this whole universe
That is not joined and one
Feeling both pain and love
Remember these simple words
Then you shall carry humility like a medicine gun
Curing all that ails mankind
As one, the universe is never blind
Do not be the fool, instead be kind
Some look in the mirror and do not see the beauty inside of them that stares back, I wish I could cure their blindness for they have pure and good hearts, even I have none at all.

our fathers son who art in heaven
came down to take the blame.
Man had sinned against our God
and lay dishonor to His name.

We push away and go astray
from the will of Jesus Christ.
We don't believe so then we're deceived
and lay open to evil ways.

His sons and daughters denied Him
to justify earthly greed
He was criticized and crucified
and left on the cross to bleed.

Look inside for His eternal guide
to His love and faithful hand.
He gave his life our Jesus Christ
so we would understand.

To give yourself completely
is not an easy thing.
But until you do, he'll walk with you
and knock again and again.

He'll never give up
it's not his way
there's nothing He can't do.
So give yourself all to Him
and you'll have His power too.
