Dear Lord…
…we don’t talk often and I guess that’s down to me
I struggle to converse with those I cannot clearly see
I understand that you’re the one on whom I should depend
And though I ask a favour now… I’m asking for a friend
The special lady in my life, who I think of as ‘wife’
Is soon to trust her eyesight to a fellow with a knife
A simple op will let her kiss her cataract goodbye
An easy thing to say about another person’s eye
Have I hid behind her vision that is blurred and grey
I’ve never had to think about it much before today
But when we met her eyes were clear and I was rather fit
But now her vision is impaired and I have changed… A BIT…
So please, when all is done allow my girl to clearly see…
Perhaps a slightly rosey tint whene’er she looks at me
Amen
To The Lady I Will Be
You're going to look at me and think
"What in the world were you thinking"
But best believe at the time it seemed right
Loving so hard and holding on tight
You're going to look back and wonder
"Why didn't you do this instead"
But trust me, the repercussions would've been outstanding
You know, for being a clown at every instance
You're going to be high valued damaged good
Pretty ironic, isn't it?
That's because you will always contradict yourself
Always wanting what's best for them, never for you
Yet cry and hopelessly yearn for the favour to be returned
You're going to be an artist
Not of pen and paper
But of flesh and bones
And your wrists will be your gallery
You're going to be so broken, future self
I'll not sugar-coat and sweeten the lemon
But you're also going to be loving
Broadcasting the pure heart you tried to hide from what you thought was venom
You're going to find someone you won't hurt
Someone who will know you for every piece
You're going to be loved a million times
For that's the number of all your cries
You're going to fall in love one last time
And you will feel alive for being in the lime
From each of your broken pieces
True happiness will overflow with peace
Dear future self, our past and present were disasters of nature
Or probably of our own doings
We do reap what we sow, after all..
But then again, we own no field and have no show
There was a man named Noah
Who the Lord found favour
He told Noah to build an ark
Many said he had gone crazy
He spends all day at this park
Living out their days being lazy
God said bring your family in
There are few of you who hate sin
Two of each living animals shall come
For they do not like what this has become
The rain came for forty days
Noah was glad that he would pray
For he knew these guest had over welcomed their stay
For his ark was the only thing to remain
After the water flooded to remove the stains
To start over with a new beginning
That Jesus might come for soul winning
We thank our God* as we praise Him for our redemption
Surely worshipping Him, blissfully jubilant…
Indeed, we gather as a church in joyful celebration
To magnify Him for His wondrous works, greatly triumphant.
We thank our God as His power we seek
Surely doing our best and utmost by His grace…
Indeed, we trust His strength each day of the week
To press toward the mark victoriously in our Christian race.
We thank our God as we ask for His wisdom
Surely fulfilling His will while in His Word immersing…
Indeed, we follow Him through His granted divine freedom
To help advance His kingdom against worldliness that’s perilously enticing.
We thank our God as we beg for His presence
Surely walking with Him amidst righteousness’ fervour…
Indeed, we draw nigh to His altar only by faith’s license
To please Him, exalting His name according to His truth’s favour.
We thank our God as we believe that He can meet our need
Surely praying with diligence of sincere earnestness…
Indeed, we cling to Him; His commands we heed
To continue as good stewards in His faithfulness.
We thank our God as we beg for revival constantly
Surely submitting to His leadership, wondrously loving…
Indeed, we yield to His control obediently
To experience His miracles while humbly serving.
We thank our God as we give Him all the glory
Surely acknowledging His mighty empowerment…
Indeed, we set our hearts for this 41st anniversary
To honour Him in our Gospel-sharing involvement.
*1Chronicles 29:13 Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

DIVINE OVERFLOW
Divine favor flows over me, an endless stream,
Find me awash in sea of blessings like a dream,
A golden tide I can't possibly contain in a hurry.
From above, a cascade of answered prayers' all around me.
Each morning breaks with divine light strong enough,
Pure, radiant grace descends, filling my life.
I hear the gentle guidance of angels away from evil,
As they steer me along paths of marvel.
My cup runneth over above new levels.
Love is reflected endlessly in the heavens.
Every deed is a gift, melody becomes my norm,
A part of a choir in which my spirit finds its home.
This year, the heavens divinity draw near.
Their message as clear as crystal, resounds here.
"Child of promise, live in peace, for my blessings will multiply for you."
No word I could hear that can ever sound so true.
May the rivers of fortune run free in this 2026 race,
Enveloped in love, touched by an everlasting grace.
May joy, mercies, and favour know no bounds,
As rain of blessings & affluence gently sounds.
With open doors and hearts that soar,
Grace shall guide us evermore.

November 29 Faith in God Bible Meditations Based on 1Corinthians 1-4
Key Verse – 1Corinthians 1:9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
FAITH IN GOD WHO IS FAITHFUL
God Who is faithful secures us eternal life victoriously…
By faith, we yield ourselves to Him sincerely
Since He assures our salvation completely
While we thank and praise Him joyously.
God Who is faithful cheers us with glad encouragement…
By faith, we entrust ourselves to Him every moment
Since He upholds us for spiritual fulfillment
While we maximize our ministry involvement.
God Who is faithful leads us along His direction…
By faith, we submit ourselves to His instruction
Since He gears us along His compassion
While we help fulfill the Great Commission.
God Who is faithful props us through His power…
By faith, we surrender ourselves to Him as His Gospel sower
Since He protects us from the deceitful soul-slayer
While we stay in His perfect will with fervent prayer.
God Who is faithful enables us to be His true witness…
By faith, we lay ourselves to Him by His imputed righteousness
Since He cleanses us with His sanctifying holiness
While we confess our sins and claim His forgiveness.
God Who is faithful drives us to seek first His kingdom now…
By faith, we bring ourselves to Him to learn wisdom of Biblical know-how
Since He teaches us doctrines that Scriptures allow
While we serve Him, fulfilling our saintly vow.
God Who is faithful drives us along devotion’s fervour…
By faith, we offer ourselves to Him as sweet savour
Since He nourishes us with His grace-flavour
While we worship Him along His mercy’s favour.

The canasta
We played canasta, club 7 was missing lie on the floor,
but the rules where you couldn’t pick it up invented by lawmakers
who had decided that one part should lose the game of power?
Millions of people protested their concern was not hidden as the system
was rigged to favour one and the missing card became irrelevant
or buried in page number five as a joke.
The card was picked up anyway and used as proof of false performance
since the man who picked up the 7th card was profoundly
argumentative he was wrong until proven right, they continued playing
with a missing card ignoring the consequences.
The rule is quite clear you can´t play canasta with a missing card.
“I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye” (Psalm 32:8). Today, and when I am old, this precept assured to me by God remains steadfastly immutable. With my trust in Him, I am confident of a triumphant and blissful future. These include the wondrous enjoyment of everlasting life, the glorious worship of the Almighty Creator, the love-filled fellowship with the saints forever. Thus, when I am old, I see myself upheld by the might of my Saviour with my spiritual bio note shining with these divine attributes the Lord endowed me with: redeemed, ransomed, regenerated. Meanwhile, though my physical strength would diminish and natural beauty fade when I get old, my faith’s luster would become all the more radiant. Such truth prompts and prods me now through God’s power to pursue and persevere toward a vibrant and meaningful lifestyle that will never haunt me, and be my miserable regret when I am old.
Faith-anchored champion…
that is me when I am old
because of God’s might!
When I am old, empowered by God with His care, I stay cleaving to His grace, delighting in His mercy, and seeking for His favour. Though afflicted with infirmities and wearied by trials, I would constantly be grateful for His faithfulness, appreciative of His peace, and joyous for His answers to my prayers. Through my heavenly citizenship, I strive to become the cheerful pilgrim and obedient steward He wants me to be while leading others to His light, preaching His Gospel with compassion, and advancing His kingdom. With that, this is my plight, anchored upon Psalm 90:12, “Lord, please teach me to number my days, that I may apply my heart unto wisdom, as I work well to present myself unto You with praise, when I am old.”
God’s grace* when I’m old
works best for service-utmost…
wondrous gift to share!
*Psalm 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
