REMEMBERING CHARLIE KIRK

So sorry Charlie, that your gone, my heart tells me you are even stronger now, like the force of light you are shining bright in our heart and mind.
That you are now part of the bigger force of God, that moves all around like the sun and moon. 
That your life was so well done, that God chose you to come home, he put his arms around you and said Well done Charlie. 
Your life was so amazing, you inspired so many for God, you gave love and kindness to all. 
We love and miss you so much, we are praying for all your loved ones. 
I am remembering Jesus’s life and how short it was, yet today we remember him so well, like Jesus we will never forget you, we will honor all of your life’s works. 
Many hated Jesus and killed him, but he lives on, making a path for all of us to follow home. Charlie you did the same, you light a path that is so bright all the world can see the light. 
Death is not the end, as Jesus told us, it is only the beginning of our true life. Charlie you light a path for all the world, and today and forever we will hold all your words close to our heart.
Lifting Prayers to God, today and always.

Line of inquiry: 
"conjoined with the whole
we play our life role
exuding a scent
granting love consent"

Hope in us glows
triumphant as our faith grows 
spreading peace of blissful blessing-flows
along God's grace* to defy doubts and subdue woes.

Love from us does shine
radiating nature of the divine
as we strive to stay inside compassion's line
marked by kindness, freed from jurisdiction of "only mine."

Joy midst us is surely contagious
as we treat all the Lord's creation as indeed precious
forgiving and caring for one another, prayerfully conscious 
always wishing the best for each other to become victorious.

* 2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.

A Father's prayer for his son

My son lies teetering 
On the edge of the abyss
And tears rivulet.

God, I beg you, please. 
End this suffering, I beg,
I die as he breathes.

I love him, dammit,
But if he suffers for me, 
I'm a poor father.

So decide. Heal him
Or quiet his pain. Mercy,
I beg of you, God.

Was not once enough?
I yield. Take my dreams, my love,
But please, spare my son. 

Your house is great, God.
Let him know true love, mercy, 
Kindness. Take him home. 

Else heal him, Father, 
He is too weak, as am I,
He should not suffer. 

Not like this limbo, 
Do not purgate him alive
But heal, or relieve.

Take my every tear 
as payment. Soften your heart.
Miracle child mine.

PRAYER FOR PEACE

Dear God,
Let me be an instrument of thy PEACE:
Where there is sadness; let me sow joy,
Where there is doubt; let me sow faith,
Where there is injury; let me sow pardon,
Where there is darkness; let me sow light,
Where there is despair; let me sow hope,
Where there is pain; let me sow comfort,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love, 
Where there is ignorance, let me sow knowledge
Where there is jealousy, let me sow kindness,
Where there is greed, let me sow humbleness
Let the fruit of the spirit fill my soul so that it may be BEAUTIFUL!
Love Always,
Jenny

When Truth Turns to Shadows

When truth is reversed into lies,
a silent cry takes its place.
And when this happens,
prayer becomes the only weapon
against the cruelty of the world.

A cry the world refuses to hear.
A pain that goes unnoticed.
A silent cry in a solitary room—
and yet, a flicker of hope,
a thought still blooming
beyond the ache.

Trust becomes a fragile thread—
easily frayed once you step away.
Laughter echoes in your absence,
not always in kindness.
Advice arrives,
dressed in concern,
but its weight presses you further down.

Encouragement stays silent,
while sympathy hides behind walls.
Words come sharp,
not to lift, but to slice.
They speak as if they know your path,
yet never ask where your feet have been.

The smile once shared
to lift others from despair—
gone in a breath,
vanished in the hush
of midnight blues.
In a moment, everything changed.

Now, with only the weight of sorrow to carry,
I hold on to the one thing that remains:
prayer—
the shield against the shadows,
the strength to block the evil
that prowls unseen.


The Author of Every Page

Do to others as you seek,
Let kindness shine, make prayers unique.
Even when they mock and scorn,
Still bless them from dusk to dawn.

For God, in love so deep and true,
Held us close when we withdrew.
The Word made flesh drew near to stay,
Though we had wandered far away.

Upon that Cross, in the darkest night,
He interceded for us at Mercy’s seat.
The One who sent the floods before,
Now guides us through the Shepherd’s door.

He who gives good gifts with grace,
Says, ‘I won’t forget your face.’
Though kith and kin may turn aside,
Your name is in His palm inscribed.

The Author of our every page,
Writes ‘Redeemed’ through each new stage.
Once lost, now found - His Blood restores,
A life of victory forevermore!

Premium MemberMy Humble Prayer

Stranded midway, my path is
strewn with thistles and thorns.
When turbulence rocks my life,
I lift my eyes Heavenwards,
and beseech- ‘Lord, piolet me’!

When tempests toss my vessel,
l pray- ‘Hold my hand’.
When heartaches leave deep scars,
wish, you come with solace,
showing an exuberance of kindness.

Help me face each day,
endowing me with your grace.
Lord, fill me with love,
to share it with others.
This is all I implore.

I live, daily

“ Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
   will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” Psalm 91:1,NIV
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I Trust Him, He will lead my way
I Love Him, He will not fail
I Know Him, He will keep me safe
I Praise Him, I feel peace within

In weakness, I ask for strength
In despair, I ask for hope
In pain, I ask for relief
In fear, I ask for His presence

I focus on Him, when in doubt
I wait on Him, for guidance
I surrender wishes to His will
I have faith on Him, I believe

Through His kindness, I see
Through His grace, I breathe
Through His glory, I feel
In His holy shadow, I live

Premium MemberAnswered Prayer

Pain pierces the heart and injures the soul.
Bleeding and crying, we long to be whole.

Life's selfish acts injure all who are near.
Reaching out for help, but we retract in fear.

We cannot accept kindness as we live in pain.
On beautiful sunny days, we only feel the rain.

Sorrows on sorrows, we only exist on this day.
Faith and hope fade into the dark until we pray.

Slow drifting sands shift through our souls.
In awe, the sands swirl, making a visage whole.

Stars ushered in a being so wonderful and pure.
As his touch melts our woes with love as a cure.

On the Eve of the New Year, our brother mends at night.
Our hope and joy are restored, giving us a future so bright. 

We rise in this New Year as our wounds are healed.
Finally, the visage of our brother has been revealed.

The Prayer of the Outsider

The Prayer of the Outsider

(A little old lady whispers all alone in the cold. Looking up at the rain filled sky.)

Dear God 
You brought me to life from nothing

To try to do something

To share kindness 
Compassion and a light for those in the dark

To follow 

Then to return home with stories
When my bell you ring 

To hear me stand and sing aloud 

In the Holy Circle 

About all the things I did when I was once alive 

In the living gardens of mankind

So keep giving me strength to keep doing so
As I go

Amen

Foundation of the piece.

In a new society slowly receding away from praying, do those who still pray, only come from the expected backgrounds?

Example. 
The more mature generation.

I am thankful for your care

I am thankful for your care oh my God,
The way you keep and guard me I applaud,
You guided me whichever path I trod,
Your goodness in my life is never flawed.

Through rain and shine you provide all my needs,
In all I do, your boundless mercy leads,
You shower blessings on my work and deeds.
In my heart your love grows like planted seeds.

Thank you God for giving my mind this peace 
In my life your kindness shall never cease.
Your showers of blessings daily increase,
From my mouth, your praise will never decrease.

Remember Me

O Lord, I cry to You, from the depths of my soul,
Remember me, dear Jesus, as the good thief made whole.
He sought Your mercy, on the cross, in his final hour,
And You, O Lord, granted him paradise, in Your loving power.

The other thief, with a heart full of pride,
Scoffed at Your power, and Your love, and he died.
His cry, a challenge, to Your authority and might,
But You, O Lord, remained silent, in the face of his plight.

Teach me, O Lord, to pray, with a humble heart,
To seek Your mercy, and Your love, from the very start.
May my cry, be like the good thief's plea,
And may I, like him, experience Your loving kindness, and be set free.

For You, O Lord, are a God, of mercy and love,
Slow to anger, and abounding in kindness, from above.
You hear the prayers, of the humble and the broken,
And You, O Lord, lift them up, and their hearts are unspoken.

So I will pray, O Lord, with a heart that's true,
And seek Your mercy, and Your love, anew.
May my prayer, be like incense, that rises high,
And may You, O Lord, hear my cry, and pass me by.

Kindness Costs Nothing
Miracle Man

I’ve Found It’s true, 
“The best things in life are free”
Not free stuff, but a prayer, a smile, a hug, 
or perhaps a kind word directed my way.
An offer of help when I’m facing difficulty,
whether needed/wanted or not.
For after all, the thought also counts,
and shows me that others care.
Start today with a smile,
and be kind to others.

A Prayer For Ernesto And Gladys Roman

O Lord of mercy, hear my call
For Ernesto and Gladys, who give their all.
In Christ’s own footsteps, may they tread,
With hearts of kindness, hands outspread.

Grant them compassion, deep and true,
To lift each spirit, to heal, renew.
May empathy bloom like a flower rare,
In their open hearts, a gentle prayer.

Bless their giving, pure and bright,
Their love of family, steadfast light.
Let generosity’s hand extend,
To those in need, a constant friend.

O Lord, enfold them in Your grace,
With peace that none can displace.
In Christ's name, may they always be
Guided by love’s eternity.

Amen.
