I'm raised by God-fearing parents with loving nurture
along caring gesture midst their tribal culture
endowing me a blessed* stature…
Dearly loved by the Almighty and my family
my personality is grace-nourished with secured redemption blissfully
while Scriptures-upheld and faith-propelled steadfastly…
A forgiven sinner am I, privileged to be a volunteer Bible teacher
beloved sister of three siblings: now are two fathers, and a mother
cheerful care-giver, and a devoted life-builder…
My spirit rejoices in sharing the Gospel of the Saviour Christ
discipling students for character that is virtue-spiced
writing articles and poems, divinely-priced...
Offended am I with my own self-conceit’s engagement
murmuring due to discontentment
as well as hypocrisy-entanglement…
I fear displeasing my King Who deserves my best
wasting time through unwise multi-tasking zest
and becoming a stumbling block in the guise of being honest…
My heart prays to visit Israel in due time
reap spiritual fruits midst harvest chime
feast in ministry rewards of diligence-prime…
Currently, a sojourner am I in the country
of heroic pride according to history's victory
also known as “Pearl of the Orient Seas” around nature’s glory
A beloved** child of God I am, grateful to Him.
*"Blessed" is the meaning of my name.
**Romans 1:7 ... Beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
