Premium Member A Dedicated Verse For Silpika Kalita- May the Grace of Lord Fall To All

May the grace of Lord fall to all!

Rain down on me Father;
Shine on me O God;
Let you reign, let it rain waters down upon me from heaven
May the light shown, shine;
Shine on my heart of hearts O’ God
May we redeem ourselves?
Beyond heavens gates;
And for all eternity;
May we reign freed;
Free from sin, repentance;
May the grace
May the grace of the Lord;
May the grace of God;
May the grace of Lord fall to all!

Be strong, bold, beautiful and loud;
I’ll be His child, Holy Hallelujah
Ever
Ever
Evermore
May the grace
May the grace of the Lord 
Be evermore, forever more beautiful
May the grace of Lord fall to all!

Premium Member Five New Year Resolutions

“When centred presence, by employing free will, grants love consent
Resolutions we make, as prayers to the universe, reflect pure intent”  
~ Quote by poet
_______________________________________________________

Being not a doer but a mere resonator, may this mind-body vessel be blessed by cognition spherical, suffused with blissful rapture, enhancing soul stature, nearer to the domain of God’s healing omnipresent light, pulsating within feeble form, through each day and night, with the voids propelling both polarities of sentience, illumined by God’s radiance and reflected by us in playful childlike innocence 

We do nothing yet all the doings are done, thus may we in time stretched stillness, be with the That oneness one, moment by moment, all moments entwined, playing out our earth life role with zest and zeal as assigned, with nary a care, always self-aware, as a humble divine conduit, unwaveringly resolute, with each point of life’s Ferris wheel having equal appeal 

Boundaries blur as in-form nodes stir and as of God’s will, all voids within fill and yet there remains ego residue, whose feral cravings from time to time renew, which our burning yearning, for with God’s light melding, spawns a seeking that ceasing to weigh and size, we completely vaporise, to the music of the spheres jive, here and now, vibrantly aglow and alive

Whilst all analysis is paralysis and musings of lower mind by divine assistance we leave behind, imbibing direct knowing by touch, by simply resonating with universal mind, free from ego bind, may the wisdom of the seers be ingrained and assimilated without fears, recognising by direct sight, the noumena birthing phenomena, in incessant motion, in a continuum of time and space dissolved meditation 

Each soul journey unique and whilst God’s love employs no force, our heart as yet seeks that free will be illumined to always embark upon the right course, obviating need for repentance and remorse, as layer by layer, truth we discover, with the false falling away, upon which standing erect, we cease to sway, from vagaries of life immune, in joy singing and dancing to the divine sublime love tune

Premium Member Accept Our Thanksgiving

Accept our thanksgiving, our God
for Your gift of eternal life’s fullness.
In Your salvation plan
You included us by Your loving kindness.
You paid for our iniquities 
against hell-condemnation’s awfulness
When You adopted us 
as Your children of righteousness.
Now, we can enjoy assurance of heaven 
with Your peace-joyfulness.

Hear our gratefulness to You, our God
for Your grace of marvelous greatness.
In Your redemption act
You ransomed us from evil’s captivity and hell’s fierceness.
Your sacrifice indeed turned us new creations 
to become revived with spiritual zealousness
When You forgave us
in our repentance from sinful callousness.
Now, we can walk with faith
experiencing Your compassion’s steadfastness.  

*Psalm 100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

Premium Member Transformation

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend - 
Martin Luther King Jr.

In your eyes I see you burn inside in the fire of anger,
the tongue spitting out the dirt of the vitriolic mind, 
the sense of sanity turning into soaring ashes of rage,
shrouded in smoke you lose the threads of reason.

I don’t run away from you, seeking a safe seclusion,
nor do I retaliate igniting another flame to sear,
for fire can’t extinguish nor can it contain any fire.
I embrace you with my soul, you can’t incinerate.

I emanate from my heart the fervent fountain of love,
drenching you with the cool shower of compassion.
From the edge of mental wreck you emerge composed,
rise from the debris of repentance, wisely transformed.

Premium Member Strive For Peace and Holiness -Hebrews 12: 14-17

Make every effort to be at peace
not just with a few but everyone
holiness also is a definite must have
for without it, God's blocked out undone

God promises to provide His grace
but one needs to obtain it to not fail
kill off all bitter roots at the stem
for many fail being defiled to be in jail

One doesn't want to be like Esau
or be found sexually immorally sinful
this is falling into Satan's clutches
better live close to God be found faithful

Esau was found out selling His birthright
after a while God's blessing he did seek
but he was rejected no matter his tears
repentance had left him his future bleak

Learn these important lessons really well
peace and holiness you can't do without
for it's your passport to the eternal home
this Jesus said is what it's all about

(Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.  See to it that no one fails to obtain the grace of God; that no “root of bitterness” springs up and causes trouble, and by it many become defiled;  that no one is sexually immoral or unholy like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal.  For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears.)

Premium Member Confronting Shadows



in the spring, when petals praise
within the song of grace who’ll amaze
beneath the silence of a gentle bud
there is a power, power in the blood

in the summer, when stories reveal
hope so sacred, sacred enough to heal
beyond the sun grows a life of wonder
singing exultation in the raging thunder

in the autumn, when leaves begin to weep
there is a promise of the light we can keep
between the glow of a morning mist
and the music that flows through our midst

in the winter, when all the bitter closes in
remember the music of a silence who’ll begin
telling the story of peace that never ends
promising the night to reveal the soul’s friend

in the seasons, when the song is composed
there is a serenity that is often exposed
inside the soul who hears the gentle voice
of One who saves by offering a choice

in the love that comes from knowing
real life is found in the blood that’s flowing
from a tree on calvary, where love lay bare
offering each of us the chance to say one prayer

a prayer of repentance, a prayer of hope
a prayer of love that means we can cope
a prayer that never fades beyond the heart
a prayer the remembers He gave us a new start

beneath the shadows that fell from that tree
there is a promise for you and me,
as we confront the sin that tries to defeat
we’re offered a love that will surely complete

beneath the shadows that we confront
we never need worry as we hunt
for the purpose He’s given our souls
as we’re reminded He always consoles

never look back, after taking His hand
He is the answer to the promised land
when you seek the love hidden in shadows
you’re met with the One who died and arose

never stop seeking the grace, hope and love
His is a music that keeps playing up above
as you sing this song and realize what’s worthwhile
you’ll know you’ve met the light no shadow can defile

An Evening Prayer of Repentance

Getting off the bus along Hillside Avenue,
I heard a loud commotion coming from a speaker;
and getting closer, I saw the face of a sweaty preacher... 
calling all souls to Jesus and make them new.



I looked and paused and saw this preacher with sweat on his face...
as he was telling the crowd a true story of The Godfather's son, who was
in the dark about his father's activities, and when he was finally told,
he didn't care if he died;  and to the authorities he went to report his dad.    



What a righteous young man he must have been, and how noble
it was to reveal that well-kept secret which would have cost his precious life,
giving up a chance at being powerful and not dedicating himself to a lifetime of crime; 
I can visualize him bowing his head down, and pray to stop the vicious cycle.



I sat next to an elderly lady whose who's veiled head shone through a gentle light,
" Sing along with me, and your lost soul will be reedemed by the blood of Jesus!" 
I shared her song book and began singing an evening prayer of repentance,
as the preacher cried out, " Raise your hand, and I will pray for you tonight!"



How many folks, like me, wanted to see that preacher proclaim the Lord's message;
and how lucky I was to have encountered a stranger who sounded like Jesus,
to add another sheep to his herd as he prayed for the sins of the repentant ones!
How glorious it was to hear him glorify Christ and His father with his voice of grace!

The Spring of 2020

The wind blows in the deserted streets,
and a sad song whistled lightly
filled with terror, the joy on earth retreats,
shocked by this great tragedy.

It's a dark and ugly Spring,
All the flowers forgot to bloom,
I cannot hear the robin sing,
Everything smells of stale perfume.

Death walks slowly through the hospitals
and the doomed are taking hold of her hand,
It makes me feel so powerless, so little
Please forgive us, Father, heal the land.

The children stay at home (there is no school)
not understanding why they cannot see their grandparents,
We all wear masks, and we follow the new rule
when walk outside running some errands.

Today, millions and millions of people,
raise their weeping eyes to the sky again,
looking for answers, looking for a reason,
Praying for blessings, for forgiveness's rain.

Under the masks, we hide our old-fashioned smile,
as our hugs slowly, slowly fade,
We hope that heaven and earth can reconcile,
We put our lives on the scale to trade.

Let the rainbow appear once more,
Receive our prayer and repentance
Get rid of the terrible storm, show us the shore,
Forgive us what is left of our sentence.

I can see through the leaves how a new petal is born,
Through the flowering trees, the birds sing a song,
I dream of the blessed, glorious morn',
I know, He's at the door, He's coming it won't be long!

Premium Member Living With Christ

This is another brand new year
to show what I am to everyone
within lives truly God's eternal son
He took all my sins so salvation's done

To show Jesus in all my life
this is what brings glory to Him
making sure He touches every corner
filled with His holy spirit to the brim

Being in constant repentance
dealing with sin small and great
killing it off no matter the price
show that each sin I absolutely hate

Be in constant communion
with the living God in daily prayer
open His eternal word for my food
it's as important as breathing air

So I would pray to my saviour
to help me live for Him each day
that this year my witness would speak
so all see Jesus in me never to stray
