Mom killed my tomorrow
Dear educationists & parents, kindly permit me to share this thought-provoking confession of a student. It has one or two lessons in career guidance and parental influence. 👇🏽 They call it spiritual, They call it ethical. They call it universal, They call it motherly. They call it usual, They call it mutual. Shut your eyes,… Read more

Live In The Now
Look not back on yesterday or what you have left behind. For only today is yours to claim, and this moment only is your time. Fret not on what has been or on what has passed you by. Yesterday is far behind you. You can’t change it if you try. New opportunities await you. They… Read more

Small Beginnings
The Maker looked lovingly at the seeds in His hand Each barely an eighth an inch long, And smiled and nodded approvingly As the other trees broke out in song, The little seeds little knew at that time The great lesson that God was showing, Or the noble cause for which they were made And… Read more

Reasons And Rhymes: Truly
Don’t look at the short length of this post, but the message sent. Do I truly think that I can fool The almighty, omniscient God, Who knows what’s in my heart and soul And sees through my flimsy facade? Do I truly think the fig leaves I sew Stitched together by threads of my pride,… Read more

Washed
By the precious blood of Jesus, Like a lamb without blemish or spot, He redeemed us from our sinful ways, That the world and our selfishness taught. Though our sins be as scarlet and crimson, By His blood we are washed white as wool, His presence to cleanse and to heal us, His peace to… Read more

Heaven’s High King
His eyes are like brightest starlight Piercing yet gentle and clear, Though the heavens cannot contain Him To the humble He gladly draws near, Heaven’s High King stepped down from His throne To show us the Father’s great love, To save us from sin and the mess we made And to raise us to heaven… Read more

The Trade
He stepped off of His throne, So glorious above, For no other reason, But to shine forth His love. The angels in awe, Bending knee at the sight, Of the King of Creation, Robed in radiant light. But the splendor displayed, On His heavenly throne, Was eclipsed by the sight, Of humility shown. He walked… Read more

Not In Vain
What I once thought an exhausting wrestling match I now see as God’s loving embrace, I once thought it was I holding on for dear life I now see I am held by God’s grace. For so many years I’ve cried torrents of tears And thought they were poured out in vain, But God stored… Read more

True Health And Wealth
Some invest in stocks and bonds Others stockpile real estate, Some tie their fortunes to this fleeting world Along with their lives and fate. Some squirrel and horde earthly wealth Clinging to it with all their might, Some can’t get it off their troubled minds And worry about it all through the night. Some scheme,… Read more

A Whisper Or A Shout
Before I spoke my Savior heard My earnest and heartfelt plea, Jesus save me I’m drowning in sin! And that cry changed my life’s destiny. Men argue and debate mankind’s state and fate Who and what we should trust and believe, But this I know in my heart and soul It’s Christ’s grace we all… Read more

New Life- New Songs
By the foolishness of my own hands I’ve burned many my share of bridges, I’ve scaled treacherous mountain peaks Then fallen down hard from their ridges. I’ve soared on wings of eagles And trod where angels don’t dare, I’ve experienced joy inexpressible And sunk deep in the pit of despair. I’ve ran with man’s greatest… Read more
