Sometimes I ponder,
At other times I wonder,
Over the depth of this love,
A love I'm sure can only be from above,
A love that loved a mess like me,
A love that loved a wretch like me,
A love that loved me for me,
And set my soul free,
It's a love so deep, a love so true,
A love it is that goes beyond man's limitation,
Cuts across the boundaries of race and ethnic restrictions,
A love that loves you regardless of your dirty pasts,
A love that can heal you regarldess of your painful pasts,
A love that is unending, unconditional, and uncompromising,
A love so true and deep, it doesn't stop calling,
On you to come to it and embrace it,
So please run to this love, so you don't regret it,
It's arms are ever open to receive you,
Just the way you are and transform you,
It's a love so deep, a love so true,
I'm not talking Eros love,
Neither do I speak of Filial love,
I'm talking of Agape love,
A sacrificial kind of love,
A love ready to give it all up for your soul,
A love that cares for your soul,
And it's not jugmental of you,
Just come to it just as you are, yes even you,
It's the love of JESUS CHRIST.
A love that suffered that you will not,
Took the pains of your sin and my sins, so we will not,
He died that you may live,
Resurrected that you will be justified, and live,
A life of righteousness, holiness and purity,
Not a life of sadness, hurt, bitterness and depravity,
Please run to this love so deep, and so true,
The love of JESUS CHRIST.
He is waiting. The choice is yours.
Peace.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE
It's a journey bound for a destination,
It's like a project with a mission;
The life we live is a jounrey,
And sometimes it tastes so inspid, with no honey,
We set goals for ourselves, but fail to accomplish them,
Sometimes we are discouraged by these failures,
So we resign to fate, and give in to mere leisures,
I know the feeling,
I've been there before, so I can relate with your pains and feelings,
But in the midst of the struggle,
The fact that it seems with the break of dawn, our struggles double,
I've come to understand that victory is not for those who give up after the first try,
It's not also for those who give up after a thousand trys,
It's for those who keep their eyes on the prize,
And keep pressing on no matter the hurdles,
It's for those who keep their eyes on the prize,
And keep pushing no matter their troubles,
I don't know what you are struggling with,
Or what you are faced with,
May be you are tired of trying,
You are fed up and you just want to stop trying,
I urge you to pick yourself up,
And look to the top,
Refocus your eyes on the prize,
And try again, no matter the pain,
Of failures and disappointments,
Keep your eyes on the prize,
'Cause it is the continuous striking of the rock,
That collapses the entire rock,
It is the continuous dropping of the little drops,
That makes a mighty ocean,
So don't give up!
Keep your eyes on the prize!
'Cause you will get there if you hold on!
Peace.

IF TODAY...
I remember the famous quote, "Live each day as if it is your last,"
Don't be held down by the failures of your past,
Do today that which you would have done tomorrow,
Make each moment count, always look towards tomorrow,
With hope, positivity, and optimism,
Never give room for pessimism,
If something is worth doing, it is worth doing well,
If it is not worth doing, it is not worth doing at all,
We all want to live forever,
But no one ever lives forever,
So live each day as if it was your last,
Ever though about it?
If today was your last day,
What would you do?
Would you give more?
Be more kind to your next door neighbor?
Appreciate your spouse more?
And pay more attention to the kids?
If today was your last day,
How would you live it,
Let's learn to live life right and well, so we don't regret it,
If today was your last day,
Are you sure of where you are headed after death?
And what happens to you when you lose your breath?
Really, what are the things that are important to you,
If you had one last thing to do,
What would it be?
Think about it.
For you have only one life to live, so live it to the glory of God,
For truth is amidst the debate, controversy and unbelief of non-believers,
We all would stand before God and be judged by Jesus Christ.
So what is your life worth, if you don't live for Christ?
Think about it.
Don't be held down by the failures of your past,
Do today that which you would have done tomorrow,
Make each moment count, always look towards tomorrow,
With hope, positivity, and optimism,
Never give room for pessimism,
If something is worth doing, it is worth doing well,
If it is not worth doing, it is not worth doing at all,
We all want to live forever,
But no one ever lives forever,
So live each day as if it was your last,
Ever though about it?
If today was your last day,
What would you do?
Would you give more?
Be more kind to your next door neighbor?
Appreciate your spouse more?
And pay more attention to the kids?
If today was your last day,
How would you live it,
Let's learn to live life right and well, so we don't regret it,
If today was your last day,
Are you sure of where you are headed after death?
And what happens to you when you lose your breath?
Really, what are the things that are important to you,

What would it be?
Think about it.
For you have only one life to live, so live it to the glory of God,
For truth is amidst the debate, controversy and unbelief of non-believers,
We all would stand before God and be judged by Jesus Christ.
So what is your life worth, if you don't live for Christ?
Think about it.

BECAUSE HE SAYS SO
Sometimes in life we are discouraged,
Sometimes on this journey of life, we feel disparaged,
Either by the pains in our past,
Or by the guilt in our hearts, heavy on our chest,
For these reasons we refuse to go up,
For these reasons we fail to rise to the top,
But I've got a word for everyone out there,
Who feels the troubles of life have left them bare,
For everyone who still battles with the pains of their past,
And everyone who still carries guilt on their chest,
Regardless of your situation,
Inspite of your disposition,
You can still be what God has created you to be,
Beacause by the blood, you have been set free,
And because He (God) says so,
Yes, you may not have come from the best family,
But rejoice because you now have an even better family-Jesus family,
And you are joint heirs with the lily of the valley,
Child of the most high,
So you must rise to the top and go high,
Why? Because God says so,
Forget the mistakes of your past days,
Accept God's forgiveness, trust in the rock of ages,
For your feet He is about to raise, and place on better stages,
So quit living in self-pity or low self-esteem.
For by Jesus, you are highly esteemed,
And no matter what society, people or even the devil says,
Ignore it, and look up to the hills,
For He would keep you from bruising your heels,
Because He says so,
You will laugh again,
Smile again,
Celebrate again,
Preach again,
Win souls again,
Live even more righteously again,
For God has wiped away all your pains,
Daily loaded you with benefits, and great gains,
And you are headed for a great future,
By the words of the scripture,
Because I am that I am says so.
Peace.

"THERE IS NO GOD!"
For so many years, decades gone,
For centuries to come, and generations unborn,
There has always been and will continue to be,
The question, "Is there really a God?"
As I meditate on this question,
And consider man's position,
On this matter, I can't help but ask,
Why would anyone say, "There is no God!"?
For I have considered the various unreliable theories,
Of science, and the various mysteries,
Which it tries to unravel,
And the many secrets it tries to reveal,
But yet has failed time and time again,
And yet they fail to acknowledge the God,
Who existed even before the world began,
How can man in his fallibility and gullibility,\
Postulate a theory that disproves the existence of a higher being; it is insanity,
For even the mysteries of science to Jehovah God are simple,
Being only a glimpse of His immeasurable might,
And yet someone says, "There is no God!"
A man said to me, "show me an evidence that there is God",
I said to him, "I know I haven't seen God, no one has seen God,
But here is an eveidence that there is a God,
The existence of our world,
The creature called man,
Alongside the many wonders of Jehovah's hands,
And yet someone says, "There is no God!"
I pray to Him everyday,
He speaks to me through His spirit everyday,
I see His works in the lives of men,
How He heals, saves, forgives and restores men,
And yet someone would say, "There is no God!"
Truly speaking, it takes a fool to say, "there is no God!",
For even science knows there is only so much it can do,
Somethings science in all of its discoveries, can still not explain,
In all of its breathroughs, some events science has failed to obtain,
That just proves man's limitations,
And the unreliability of his postulations,
Yet someone would still say, "There is no God!",
Remember the guy that said, "not even God can sink this!"?
Remember what happened to that which he spoke about?
Remember the other man that thought he could exalt himslef above Jehovah,
Not long after he lived like an animal, he learnt to worship Jehovah forever,
So don't be deceived,
Do not let this thought be conceived,
Within you, that there is no God.
Somethings we may not be able to explain,
Somethings we wonder why they happen,
But no matter what it is, it doesn't change the fact,
That there is God who rules and reigns over the affairs of men.
Peace.
