Premium Member Sigh Story of Mine

God with His grace reigns in my sigh* story
allowing relief-breath of victory
that grants pardon goodness from confessed sins
midst overwhelming guilt-filled misery.

In my anxieties causing grievous pain
sigh of complaints can’t deny my soul strain
acknowledged with own human nature flaws
needing the Lord’s comfort toward peace gain.

Impatient yearnings trigger panic sighs
making my blood pressure notably rise
as emotions swell against fear attack
hence, the Saviour I call for wise advice.

For stable health that sighs well-being, blest
my body enjoys Christ’s strengthening zest
inhaling and exhaling properly
exercising upon stamina-test.

Achievements expel sighs of fulfillments
my faith aspires in reaching-out moments
serving the Master by His love and might
conscious of limitations’ impairments.

Bondings with special child release sigh bliss
while witnessing his milestones I can’t miss
marked by self-control, combatting seizures
surely the Father above does notice.

Sighs of sweet trust conclude my everyday 
fellowshipping with best Friend all the way
expressing gratitude, worship, and praise
for answered prayers --- whether yea or nay.

*Lamentations 1:11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become vile.

Premium Member Combatting Spiritual Decay

With selfishness that had rotted my soul
Along foul stench of decay-causing pride
Succumbing to shame midst grievous defeat
For Christ’s blessed pardon, I humbly cried.

Midst unconfessed iniquities, heart fails
As vows toward holy striving lose might
Cognizant of transgressions’ stinking molds
I seek the Saviour’s light to do what’s right.

Admitting my own human nature flaws
Exposing debilities and defects
I beseech God for sanctifying grace
To be cleansed from every sin that infects.

Grateful to the Lord’s preserving* mercy
My spirit persists to fight decay signs
Anchored by His ever-enduring strength
In exuding sweet smell by truth guidelines.
 
*2Timothy 4:18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Premium Member I Yearn To Live For God

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20 of the King James Bible

Ascending upward faith-performance gain

Behooved to stand against falsity stain

Circumspect while walking midst harsh terrain

Delighting in Christ’s blessings of grace reign

Enabled for service midst labour’s pain

Fervent, combatting grievous boredom bane

Guided by God’s wisdom while goals do attain

Hoisted for life-building upon truth’s cane

I yearn to stay in the Lord’s domain

Joyously sharing love He does sustain.

Premium Member The Daily Pandemic Planner

Everything seems to be calm 
After evacuating hearing about the Covid 19 bomb 
Does that mean a time for a break? 
Or reality no money to make 
Is this a paid vacation tranquil tease? 
Or getting away, doing as one please 
Phone is not off the hook 
Settling down in the sand reading a good book 
Waiting for a call 
Cannot spend time down at the mall 
Finding out important obligations are really small 
Since staying healthy and inside the law 
No worries or fears 
Just mental combatting the corona spear 
That rolled through the winter 
Like a chef planning dinner 
One by one they dropped 
European life just stopped 
Cancelling annual events on the board 
Using its invisible slashing sword 
On its east to west deadly diseased diabolical tour 
Is everything all right?
Simple lives trapped waiting for a guiding light 
To deal with a pandemic fight 
There are things that are wrong 
When writing lyrics for a peaceful song 
That could look nice on the charts 
During early play starts 
Then the charity case is a top 100 hit 
While high profile individuals need some sort of a kit 
How does one get sick? 
During this global trick 
Not wearing a mask? 
Doing daily tasks? 
Try to plan for tomorrow 
Staying positive, no sorrow 
Are they ever going to remove the chains? 
Applied due to the psychotic flu strain
When a contagious culprit took away everyone’s social game 
As the day comes to close 
What does the news media know? 
Two major things going on 
Both featuring Commander and Chief Don 
Prescription Care address 
To fix this health care mess 
Go back under the bed sheets 
Wait for the early morning sun looking so sweet

Premium Member Remedy Against Sin

God has provided a remedy
so sin can be defeated
His divine word he has given
that true godlike behaviour is created

Our role is to store this word
deep into our God shaped hearts
so it's there for us to call up
when satin fires his evil darts

God wants us not to sin
especially against His character
so His word we've been given
to live the truth so not be an actor

Jesus is our perfect example
on combatting satin with scripture
refusing his temptation to sin
making sure our hearts are pure

Go on and sin not
believing only on God
daily reading holy writ
so to heavens award

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY BATTLE CONQUEROR

I then fix my sight to Your inheritance along heavenly entrance
In carrying-out Your commandment, subdued of my arrogance.

Lord God, You are my battle Conqueror, 
training my will by Your sin-slaying might
Thank You for building me up against pride’s downfall and blight
I then find my strength in Your blood-redeeming power for victorious flight
In calming myself to prevail over guilt’s fright and frustration’s height. 

Lord God, You are my battle Conqueror, 
terrifying my enemies greatly
Thank You for bracing me up to march on righteously
I then follow Your leading perseveringly
In coming nigh to Your throne so I can share Your peace bravely.

In committing my life to Your blessed joyfulness.

teaching my spirit to trust Your wisdom
Thank You for boosting me against vain quest for earthly stardom
I then fall into Your forgiveness, humbled in seeking first Your kingdom
In calling upon You while discovering Your bliss-filled freedom. 

Lord God, You are my battle Conqueror, 
trying my conviction against materialistic prosperity
Thank You for burdening me with prayer quests to seeking You with sincerity
I then fence my mind around Your truth’s security
In combatting oppressive discontentment midst grievous futility. 

Lord God, You are my battle Conqueror, 
triumphing toward my divine cheerful excitement
Thank You for blessing me in my stewardship’s engagement
I then feast in Your presence with Your grace-endowment
In cleaving to You always by Your Word’s assuring bestowment.

Premium Member Lord, Enable My Spirit

Around Your love’s secured embrace
I snuggle warmly against unbelief’s stress
Finding refuge in You amidst life’s race…
Lord, enable* my spirit to praise You…even I’m in distress.

Seeking for Your full forgiveness
I confess to You my transgressions and iniquities
Knowing that You alone can pardon my sinfulness…
Lord, enable my spirit to thank You…cleansed from guilt’s infirmities.

Combatting adversaries’ accusations
I need Your powerful might
Overcoming guilt-oppressions…
Lord, enable my spirit to cling to You…with Your favour’s delight.

Premium Member Chapel Campus Closure

I do not know where to start  

How my world fell apart  

Mimicking a dependent broken heart  

Smashed all-in pieces  

Everything ceases 

Time to phone  

Home  

Admit, ‘I am alone’  

A chapel bathes in sunlight  

Making the future bright 

Back to school I went  

Where four years I spent  

Getting fed  

Knowledge planted straight to my head  

Not remembering anything the professor said 

Reflecting upon the campus mall  

Quietly embracing spiritual magic, that is all  

Proper decision made the call  

Getting into a debatable mind-bending brawl  

Dismantling my internal adversity wall 

Shedding recent tears  

Remembering it was here 

Received much cheer  

Credit achievements earned  

Needing updated lessons to learn 

Professional experience standing firm  

Going from one term  

To another  

Many classes covered 

Maturing more  

Browsing the academic store  

Opening a personal door  

Benefitting just me  

Document office hanging for many to see  

Unlocking the respect key  

Allowing it to reveal  

Combatting treacherous honest deals  

Innocent trusting community asking, ‘is it real?’  

Time to make a move  

And prove  

Projecting a skillful tone 

Lacking stereotypical moan   

Since it was classroom trained and honed  

Playing a game 

Strengthening my claim  

Did I win? 

Was there a sin?  

I do not know 

But I can go  

Without a scare  

To a campus chapel right there  

Telling me I am living a life that is fair  

Emotional jigsaw puzzle put together    

Ready for sunshine weather 

Feeling better  

After getting my supportive grade letter
