Lord, use me
to accomplish your purpose,
and make a sower out of me...
to multiply these scattered seeds;
miracles come in many forms:
in blessings of prosperity!
What I gave was all I had,
and what I will receive
will be more
than abundance!
Defying danger and changelling death,
I walked straight into the wilderness,
but nothing scared me in my pursue;
afraid of turning the pages of the Bible
and not feeling sympathy for myself,
I ventured all and got lost...
my innocence turned into lust,
which gave me pleasure without any rule!
Lord, use me
to drive many away from foolishness,
and as You forgave me of my impurities...
they will see Your mercy
as clear as morning;
and reject sin as a hateful thing!
Lord, use me
to declare the freedom that came with change,
and anyone can be part of it...regardless of age;
Lord, use me and let me love in humility!
May 11 Praises to God Bible Meditations Based on 2Chronicles 5-8
Key Verse – 2Chronicles 5:13 It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD.

It was a special party of a rich personality
All big and known names with there
I too was invited because I knew a family member
Not used to attending big parties, I observed others
All ladies dressed in best attire flaunting their beauty
Males trying to impress females
All trying to demonstrate they are the best
Each boasting about how great he is
About costly purchases made, his achievements
I wondered what are these people trying to achieve
Boosting their egos
Trying to be number one
What will they get by doing that?
Real beauty lies within
Real achievement is not in spending on self
but in helping the needy
Isn't humility the greatest of all virtues?
A world of lies
A life of pretence on borrowed money
So much just to impress others
Is it not stupidity?
Or
May be I am different.

In bitter winter He came
For sweet warmth us to bring
Into the night he was born
For our souls to illumine
In a manger he was placed
For humility us to teach
Into poverty He was set
For the wealth of heavens with us to share
The hatred of the King Herod He confronted
For love in our hearts to instill
In a warring land He marched
For peace on earth to establish
And
He, willingly, Himself sacrificed
For salvation to humanity to grant
For that
Let us all, my friends, sing alleluia
For
Alone in life we walk no more!

“You must love your neighbor as yourself.”
Matthew wrote those words in the Bible to tell
the world how God expects everyone to be.
No mask worn by a viper can conceal a snake
from the eyes of God, for he sees everything.
Don't accuse me of preaching damnation in fire,
because I don't believe in the flames of a hell.
Jesus was a preacher and I'm proud to walk in his way,
witnessing to those interested and filled with desire
to learn his Father's message and what he had to say.
Humans dare not judge each other. It's not their right.
Only God can read the hearts of men and he alone
is the rightful judge of those who do good and bad.
Those who think they are clever, pretending to be good
may be wolves dressed as sheep, hiding in plain sight.
They smile, pat you on the back, seemingly humble,
then bite your hand and lick the flesh from your bone.
The Apostles argued among themselves, they grumbled
which of them would be greater in wielding his power.
Jesus was saddened by their attitude but gently he spoke,
"This is not the way among you; but whoever wants
to become great among you must be your minister,
and whoever wants to be first must be your slave.” *
Contentiousness and egotism are enemies of humility
so look deep within and seek a spiritual brotherhood
with those crossing your path. We all have the ability
to walk in truth and light, making all things right.
*Matthew 20: 26-27
We as sinners, want to impress–
how weak would we appear to admit we regress.
So we remain hidden behind a happy face;
Stoic in appearance–weakness never showing a trace.
Feeling alone, we are fearful and weak–
hiding the true face, never admitting defeat.
But the Lord knows our battle with that old nature,
the ways we puff up to look big in stature.
If we could fully realize the liberty found only in Him,
and possess the freedom that Christ did win;
Our knees would crumble, to the ground we would fall,
and the Spirit of grace will lift us to Whom we are called.
Remember this and our face will shine;
that God looks on His and says, “you are Mine!”
With our childlike voices, lets admit our need,
knowing it is only in Jesus, one is truly freed.
in illuminated sky glitter sparkling stars,
my precious star dazzles blissfully in my heart.
from the splendid day my special girl came to me,
everything around felt magically soothing.
monotonous life turned supremely glorious,
her graceful spirit transformed my prosaic life .
brought inimitable joy, boundless happiness,
she carried heavenly bliss and endless kindness.
gazing at exceptionally courageous face,
my sorrows, my sufferings, instantly forget.
with a compassionate soul, the angel of light,
unfailingly caring, lively, cheerfully bright.
talent and humility - blended in one soul,
rare to find, healing agony her unique goal.
stands comforting and vigilant by the bedside,
of the sick, of the frail, the ailing - day and night.
makes me the proudest, exultant mother on earth,
truly blessed, having unparalleled gem like her.

Stewards washed the feet of their masters to make them relaxed.
Master, dignity-filled, bestow blessings on these small ones.
Did Jesus, as a master, make his disciples feel taxed?
His love for them made them feel like they were truly his sons.
Who is great? Who is small? This concept went with the world's ways.
Should such feelings overtake the minds of intimate friends?
He taught them, like a child, to blaze with a glaze of pure rays.
Did they, as grown-ups, easily give up their earthly trends?
Truths go off-head when ego fills the physique and psyche.
He who humbled himself wished to teach them humility.
This deed indeed is a deed of ending a power hike.
Is there any virtue yet greater than integrity?
Each one carried out this teaching of their master ever
Each yearned for more degrading death for him than the other.
In this generation, we live among
standards have fallen so very far
our grandparents would be so shocked
if living now where all would be a star
Humility among the majority not be seen
most think themselves so much better
they're no. 1 at least within their own eyes
considering that they're no man's debtor
Now the fashion is in wearing jeans
not to be whole but always be torn
filled with holes the more the better
is this a world we want our kids be born
But this world has become fully foreign
to what scriptures call right and wrong
for to them right is wrong, wrong is right
O for the old days to truthfully belong
So hideous to see these torn jeans,
not at all smart just an awful sight
what are this generation trying to prove?
so anti-God showing them people of night!
Fig Leaf
“While the fig leaf traditionally covers naked shame
The fig leaf also makes a healing tea of restoration” Quote by poet.
Ducking beneath a quilt woven of the fig leaf
To sip upon a homemade brew of fig leaf tea
That soothes the inflammation
Of my humiliation to enhance
The concentrated healing of my intentions
For my unmasked vulnerability –
The exposed private parts of my simpering heart
To apply an antibiotic poultice
That eliminates toxic gaffs of conscience -
Slips of the lazy tongue,
Thoughtless raging fevers of impropriety –
To strengthen bones of humility
This poor man’s olive branch
That unclogs charity’s lifeblood
Increases flow with overflow
In warm generosity
Eliminating tactless bacteria
Reducing the temperature of shame
To recline again in sweet gardens
Of compatibility at the twilight.
