MY BIRTHDAY PRAYERS
Father God Almighty
It's a new era for me
Thanks for all you do
Bless this era
So I don't repeat lessons
Let my problems be lessened.
Make a way
Where there seems to be none
For that's what you're known for
That's why I'm steadily relying on you
I need your reply
A speedy answer.
Do it your way
Before I try my way
So

(A Haiku Trilogy)
The moon said, “bye sun”;
laid him in his horizon
to wake tomorrow:-
Perpendicular,
I rose between sky and ground;
rooted in sunshine:-
Today has been great,
tomorrow promises more:
yesterday, survived:-

Wanted them

Being
Being more open to others’ ideas
Being helpful when I encounter the helpless
Being loving when I see those that seem unlovable
Being slow to anger when I feel I’m being attacked
Being understanding when others make mistakes
Being non-judgmental when people are different from me
Being thankful for all that comes into my life

He brought me to my knees
He brought me to my knees so I could see His face.
As I fell on my knees, I got a view of His grace, and I knew I was in a good place.
He called me by name and I responded with joy. It was then that my pain and hurt disappeared because I realised He

The Newness of Now
Now is not categorized as such because it rose out of the sordid ashes of a yester-moment
Now is not classified as fresh because it arose pristine and bleached from yester-hour’s horror
The uniqueness of now is assigned according to a mind vision that gives permission to peer with a microscopic lens
Along with the realization that there

Unphased
I am one who carries love
who also carries grief
I hold life’s many phases
like the moon engulfed in shadow
this weight has pulled me inwards
to discover hidden craters
that may become rich seams
how far till I reach darkness
the tides rule pain and pleasure
our wealth of brilliant dreams
and loss of all we cherish
as we fall to earth again
the sky

And may encouraging light

Who Is Like You Oh Lord In All The Earth
Who is like You, O Lord, in all the earth?
He who breathes galaxies as easily as men exhale,
He who paints the sky with colors no eye has named
And yet stoops low to cradle the sparrow in His hand.
Who is like the One who carved mountains with a whisper,
Yet stitched lilies with more care than kings
