Best The Ability To Poems
Meribah means” quarreling”
Messah “testing”
Istraelites grumbled a lot
It was about the lack of water
Moses responded by scolding them for testing Eternal God
It only incited the people more
Threatened to kill him
Moses petitioned to Eternal God
Who supplies the water they need
When we complain about our less-than-satisfactory situations
Moses is not around to intercede
A bit of complaining maybe helpful; a lot is harmful
Get complains out by writing in journal
Grumbling to myself when I walk
This keeps me from continuing my inner griping endlessly
To prolong it would definitely harden my heart
When I stop complaining
Open up to the quiet presence of the Holy one
I don’t always receive water like the Istraelites
But I do obtain the ability to let go and live more peacefully
Hold your breath
Not a touch of death
Go above the atmosphere…
Embrace the rainclouds that sponge in fear
Tell them that there’s a hopeful Utopia that lies ahead
Wipe away their tears of dread
Put all of your doubts to bed
Walk into the orchards of thousands of trees
Scan the rocky paths gingerly…
We’re grazing about like buzzing bees
Unveil the beautiful scene to everyone cheerfully
We can pass as psychopaths….sorry that I said that weirdly
Outlandish owls flutter about
In the current of the aqua-blue sky…we’re soaring so high, making me almost wanna cry! Never wave goodbye to surreal moments like these!
They’re all going the same route
I can’t help, but ask myself why…why we don’t have the ability to fly like bountiful, pleased bees! God will hear our pleas and guide us with gentle breeze!
Reach to the baby blue sky in childlike innocence
Don’t be fenced in by sad reminiscence…
It will soon turn to the process of evanescence
Someday, we all must turn to repentance…
I’m sorry – I’m trying to help you in this circumstance
He’ll help us out in advance and enhance our joyous appeal – we’re dancing merrily in harmony…in unity, we twinkle with elegance like stars, brightening with brilliance!
Drifting, white clouds pass us by,
Blending and floating in the sundrenched sky
Leave the past behind us – there’s a bright future
With many bright opportunities…that will nurture
Broken-hearted souls like ours…
God has incredible, genius powers
Rely on Him and He’ll take us beyond the distance and fulfill our heart’s desires
He’ll put out the hindrance…the quarrels that spread like wildfires
Know that God is far greater than men
He bestows us with miracles and gives us hope in mind again and again
So, when in doubt, look up to Him
And our hearts will flourish with far-fetched faith and He suits our fancy; our hearts are pumping with plenty of passionate pleasure – our lights will not dim!
Instead, He'll fill our cups to the rim
If I were you, I would thank Him!
Thank you, Lord, for giving me the ability to fly!
I'm crawling out of my shell; I'm bold as a lion, not shy like a sheep, grazing for who knows how long - I get on my knees and sigh...
Fine. I'll repent of my sins that I've committed in the past - it's the truth I cannot cover or deny!
As the sunlight captures the green leaves,
It lights up everything to be seen
When you wonder how everything is going to be…
When those dark clouds of thoughts come rolling in…
When it seems like nothing will ever be alright…
Remember, the sun always returns to light your way
Remember, dark clouds do not always stay!
Sometimes it is possible to be stuck quite a while
But, everyone has the ability inside to shine
To give, to create, to be grateful and to live!
In turn this will shine upon everything around them
So, let yourself shine; Release all that you’ve been given!

Today I’m thankful for my ability to read…and write…
with the hope that in my life…these two keep reuniting…
That I have been able to write something worth reading…
or to have done something worth writing
And my thanks to Benjamin Franklin whose writings I have read…
And to his particular quote…that put this thought inside my head.
Today I’m thankful for the ability to be thankful
and the way thankfulness breeds thankfulness more and more…
because the more you practice being thankful….
you find
the more you have to be thankful for.
Have the ability to express yourself
So others can learn
Give them an opportunity
To gain knowledge in order to earn
The world is an open book
When a person can process information
One shall continue to edify themselves
And receive a valuable education
Today I’m grateful for my ability to read
It has allowed me to discover truths
to think for myself
and for my imagination to be freed…
And though I don’t always agree with ever word
and may or may not choose to heed them….
I rejoice I have been blessed
with the ability to read them.
Today I’m thankful for our ability to wonder…
and to find wonder in the world:
For instance…I wonder how this works:
When I’m feeling low…
when it’s wonder in my life I lack…
all I have to do is look around…
and I find little bits of wonder looking back.
We have the ability to forgive—
Like wind that moves through trembling leaves,
It asks no permission,
It seeks no reply,
It simply flows, unseen.
Forgiveness is a hush in the heart,
A candle in the night—
Flickering, but alive.
It softens sharp voices,
And turns hard faces into water.
It is the hand that lifts the stone,
Then lets it go.
It is the quiet sun that breaks the storm,
It is the flower that still grows
In broken ground.
We have the ability to forgive—
A gift as deep as love itself.
Today I’m thankful for the ability to dance
and for having read the words of people like Vicki Baum…a gifted Austrian writer
Who through her writing helped to make our world a little brighter
Like the day in her life when she penned this little gem
There are shortcuts to happiness she wrote
and dancing is one of them
I am grateful for the ability to learn about others…
in a world filled with my sisters and brothers….
Because when I learn about another person…
who they are, how they live…where the dwell
It’s amazing but at the same time
I learn more about myself as well
Today I’m thankful for the ability to fall in love..
for this simple reason why…
The moment we fall in love…
Is the moment…our heart learns it can fly.
What are goofy things
Being awkward,
telling dumb jokes and stories,
or wearing crazy clothes
are all great ways to be goofy.
Why are my stories so bad
I never thought them goofy
The lady say's I'm a jerk.
I never thought I was being useless
She said I had a silly grin.
I thought I was smiling.
I admit to loving you
You are ashamed of me
aren't you?
A goofy smile is sweet
unless you don't wanna be sweet.
Why am I sweet anyway
or are you just mean and sour
and repel great looking men
Huh? Come on tell me.
Please tell me why you know
so much?
Tell me why you're so special.
I'm proud and debineer
cool and sophisticated
I got that rizz about me
I got that rizz about me
i really;really do
an alarming rhizz go tell your friends
tell them I'm that great and entertaining
Goofy, nah I'm Rizomatic
This word was created today
the word was brand new.
Everyone has the ability to do well
Just enhance your mind
Keep those books open
And you will do just fine
Continue on with your studies
Learn as much as you can
As you turn those pages
Feeding your brain some more should be the plan
Today I’m thankful for the ability to give…knowing giving can be fun…
as I now give the rest of this blessing to Emily Dickinson:
Who wrote:
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again
I shall not live in vain.
