OF DIVINE GUIDANCE AND VICTORY
Let’s be as Noah,
Arking liberation waves
To shores of justice:
Let’s be in self-forgiveness;
Divine wisdom guiding us:-
It's not a Stockholm:-
Rather, it’s America’s
Oppressor Syndrome!
Such unique shared infection:
Victims equally psychosed:-
Self-liberation,
Begins with divine wisdom;
Ask, and it’s given:
When we make human mistakes,
She will guide their corrections:-
Always be aware,
Liberation can’t be bought;
It’s fought for and won:-
Let’s get to needed fighting:
Victory awaiting us:-
G-od
L-ord
A-lmighty
D-irects
Y-our
S-uccess

Monocrostic (Birthday of Gladys G. Dela Cruz)
In stillness, I call for Heaven’s light,
Through shadowed paths, I seek a gentle guide,
A whisper in the dark of night,
To lead me where the faith and hope reside.
I long for grace, a beacon in the storm,
A promise of calm in the swirling sea,
In every trial, I yearn to transform,
To find in Your presence a way to be free.
With every breath, I search for the divine,
A touch of love that heals and makes me whole,
In each quiet moment, Your voice I pine,
To fill my heart and soothe my weary soul.
O Lord, Your light, I humbly seek, so bright,
To walk beside me and guide me through the night.
Claiming God’s favor everyday
My soul does seek heavenly light
Guidance while I fervently pray
Persisting to do what is right.
With approval of divine ray
My faith soars toward venture flight
Vanquishing temptation’s prey
Triumphant upon humbling plight.
Sometimes I am in disarray
Caused by sin along guilt-filled blight
My heart that falters with dismay
Seeks the Saviour for helping might.
When trials show that I’m just clay
My human nature can’t hide fright
I cling to Christ Who is the way
Safeguarding me well day and night.
Choosing that in God’s plan, I stay
My fervent vows declare and cite
Trust* in the Almighty today
And forever with blest delight.
Optimizing chances with grace
I serve the Lord upon truth’s brace.
*Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
