“Ceasing to sway, get out of your own way ~
That love and light bursts forth, like a sun ray”
~ quote, by poet
____________________________

Believing ourselves to be mind-body,
we pursue objects of our heart's desire,
more oft than not, employing thoughts shoddy,
immersed in delusion, until we tire,
whereupon we internalise focus,
shifting baton of awareness to heart,
divine entwined along the love locus,
deeming all souls as one, with none apart,
ascending thus, along octaves of love,
as bubbling joy becomes rapturous bliss,
enabled when head and heart, hand in glove,
feeling here now complete, nothing amiss.

We stoop to conquer, when we surrender,
as resounds within, soundless bliss thunder.

A Wish To Live

My nerve cells are ceasing my thoughts 
My breath is barricading my life
My limbs are trembling 
My heart is hovering in fear

Oh mommy!  I am being victimized by me. 

The earth is sinking under me 
The sky is falling over my head
The compressive strength of my bones is diminishing day by day
The muscularity of my body is dwindling night and day

Oh mommy! I am being killed by me. 

I am a coward lying lifeless among the lively fears
I am a yellow belly scared of the bright orange sun
I am a namby pamby soul shivering under the blanket of cold winter night
I am a fraidy cat snuggling in the sleeping bag of life 

Oh mommy! I am being slaughtered by me. 

Drag me away from this dangerous dragon
Get me out of these pinching hours of darkness 
Hold me tight and embrace me in your arms
Give me solace and help me revive my true being. 

I want to smile
I want to sing
I want to jump
I want to shout
I want to breathe 
I want to live
Oh mommy!  I want my life back.

IN AN OF A ONCE WILTED FLOWER BLOOMING AGAIN

Hey, paper flowers
Don’t grow
And love is not
A fun plaything:-
You tickled my heart,
And I giggled silly tears;
You then reeled me in
As I feasted on your sweet bait;
Then, you left, leaving me like
An old cemetery: full and lifeless:-
Now I ride a roller coaster of emotions
Up and down the tainted rails,
Life all so often travels:-
However, companions of pain and fear,
Are ceasing to be old road dogs,
Without whom I can’t survive;
And you will soon become
A faded keloid, my heart
Once tearfully bore:-
Now blooming
In the healing garden
Of passion, I fragrantly grow;
Waiting to be plucked and watered
In a vase of true and everlasting love:
May my given love, nourish your growth:-

Awesome with divine glow
yon magic wand in kaleidoscopic delight
hope smites woe…

radiates smile
midst prayer to God of faith’s sight
meanwhile…

brings gain
answer to plight
rain…

Awesome with divine glow
midst prayer to God* of faith’s sight
rain!

*"Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." 1Thessalonians 5:16-18

GYA -God your answers to prayers immediately yes in due time yes so you will learn from it yes no because your heart's not right no I've got a better plan God your answer to prayer should be a natural part of our thinking we are encouraged to pray without ceasing This means never being far from the attitude or action of taking of talking and listening to God we pray because we he is here he's there.

PTP -Prompts o Pray newness starts something new in me oh God needs because you're Jehovah jireh God who provides blessings burdens crisis worries sin you cure all of them

KOP -Keys of prayer persistently praying by asking seeking and knocking on the door of his heart keys and prayer praying and faith keys and prayer praying and secret keys and prayer,  praying and agreement with other believers key and prayer. Pray while fasting key in prayer praying from an obedient life key in prayer praying while abiding in Christ and his word praying while delighting in the Lord ~  Amen

And again amen

“Ever present in joy, ceasing to sway
Let the bliss throb vibrant, be our mainstay“

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If we react to an external circumstance 
What be the cause of inner stirring
Do we contract or is our soul singing
Breezing through in playful innocence 

However, more oft than not, reactions egoic
Orbiting narrow grooves meaningless
Thus constant vigil and mindfulness 
Essential for imbibing the bliss pulse ecstatic

Ultimately, to exit ego borne delusion
Our lower nature must vaporise
Then feeling divine magnetism within rise
Innate joyfulness becomes our orientation 

Flowing thus in an unending continuation

Premium Member I Heard Him Say

I have known him for only 3 years and 5 months,
But from his lips has flowed a lifetime of wisdom;
The kind of wisdom born out of many experiences.
In our world of super excellerated knowledge, the flow
Of wisdom and common sense seem to be ceasing.
Please allow me to speak of just a little of that wisdom.

I heard him say again and again, "Don't fool yourself".
In a troubled world of believers being decieved by
Unbelievers as well as other 'so-caled' believers',
There is no space or time to be fooled by onesself.

I heard him say on many occasions, "We're leaving here".
Whereas everyone realizes that none of us gets out of
This world alive or remain here forever, being reminded
Of such generates as energy that encourages being
Ready to meet God at the time of our demise.

I heard him say, "God has blessed me".  The emphasis
Was always on the word 'Me'.  Wornout shoes no longer
Adorn his feet, and over used clothing has no fitting
On his body. Poverty no longer knocks on his door.
Pride and selfishness are not friends of his because
He knows where he came from and who brought him
To where he now so gratefully reside.

Finally, I heard him say, "I'm tired". With those three
Words, he was not saying I'm quitting. There simply
Is no quit in him. I think that he was saying that there
Is a finish line for all of us, but to finish well,  we must
Learn to rest.

Premium Member Ennui To Bliss

Whenever we feel we are incomplete,
as in a contraction, a sense of lack,
fake smile on our face, heart sunk to our feet,
shrouded in gloom, as subtle fears attack,
how much we wish to get our laughter back!
Oh hermit! Simply look at source of thought,
rooted in attachments, ego begot,
bubbles of illusion, borne of desire,
mirrored by fears, spiralling narrow slots.
Feeding them not, consign thoughts to the pyre!

Abiding then, in thought rested silence,
we let go of all that binds and confines,
ceasing striving, reclaiming innocence,
gently, head and heart, with conscience align,
imbibing bliss, as the love throb assigns!
Oh hermit! Know no doing need be done.
Just let past conditioning be undone,
shifting thus from seizing to connecting,
free like the breeze, whilst basking in the sun,
blissful in the current scintillating!

Premium Member LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY LABOUR OF LOVE'S INSPECTOR

November 26 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on 1Thessalonians 1-3

Key Verse– 1Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father. 

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY LABOUR OF LOVE’S INSPECTOR			

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who checks my sincerity
Thank You that I can trust Your salvation’s certainty
For my assurance of eternal security
And joy in Your Word’s stability.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who is my perfect example
Thank You that I can depend on Your power since my faith You propel
For my strength in sharing Your Gospel
And deliverance from temptations’ ripple.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who reproves my vain motive
Thank You that I can entreat Your help when I become proudly reactive
For my meekness to please You against carnality that’s assertive
And humility to submit to Your directive.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who witnesses my behaviour
Thank You that I can lean on Your love’s transformation-endeavour
For my walk to be worthy in Your kingdom’s favour
And testimony that shows You’re my Lord and Saviour.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who forgives my doubtfulness
Thank You that I can ask for Your pardon to cleanse my confessed sinfulness
For my victory against unrighteousness
And peace while engaging in Your holiness.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who meets readily my need
Thank You that I can cling to Your grace with mercy indeed
For my contentment against covetousness and greed
And satisfaction despite distress of selfishness-breed.

Lord God, You are my labour of love’s Inspector Who fights my fear
Thank You that I can cleave to Your presence I hold so dear
For my comfort in my sorrowful tear
And delight in Your compassion, sweetly near.
