124 Days - 142 Poems - 19 Posts (Poem 58)

Dear Readers,

Today's Poem is inspired by something that has been puzzling me for a while. The more it puzzles me, the more my eyes open, and the more I am aware of how unaware we are of it.  Maybe I mentioned this before but my favorite verse in the
Scriptures is Luke 2:19 "As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart". Every January 1st, I eagerly look forward to hear these words repeated in the Gospel.

Why am I mentioning it? I had often seen pondering as reflecting, digesting situations like Queen Esther before speaking up. I often believe that there is power in a woman and a man who seek to understand before reacting. We may not always be successful, but it is worth the try.

Nowadays, the more I have become allergic to gossiping, the more my eyes open. The more they open the more I am allergic to gossiping, and the more I have come to comprehend another angle of Luke 2:19, and why there is so much about the tongue in the Old Testament - we must strive to not have a loose tongue - whether men and/or women.

It is incredible how much is done with the tongue - I have always believed that it is the one member of the body who commits crimes for which it never goes to jail.

The tongue is powerful - use it to bless yourself and others. Stay away from wishing yourself ill or to be more direct from cursing yourself and/or others.


I am still recovering from this weekend's retreat but will surely post the poem picked this week by a Blessed soul.

Countdown: 124 Days - 142 Poems - (18 Weeks / 19 posts).

Poem 23 - No end for the greatest ( Weekly Post #2)

No end for the greatest

Like a radio turned on, 1Corinthians 13:8a repeats

As if I had never ever heard it read it or recited it

Like a radio who’s remote is broken, I am convicted

Of a new understanding of Biblical Love True Love

Like a radio compelling you to call in, I am inspired

To pen, to inscribe for us the hidden knowledge of

Love never comes to an end

Is this true? What Love? How?

In a century where more marriages

Rooted in Christ are falling apart

Love, are you really for ever?

Then who are you that we may

Discover embrace you anew

I ponder from the depths of me

Like a radio repeating what was spread, I am playing

here the words of the apostle Paul and loudly reflecting

Love never comes to an end

If Love never comes to an end

No wonder Love must struggle to establish

then Love is more than emotional sparkles

If Love never comes to an end

Aren’t Love and the weather twins

The weather never comes to an end

If Love never comes to an end

In Love then, there is no cul-de-sac

But surely Love has seasons

And St Paul wrote ‘Love never comes to an end’

Then indeed Love never comes to an end

For Love is the greatest

If Love never comes to an end

Truly Love is a divine a person

Love is the Heavenly Father

If Love never comes to an end

Then Love is truth and isn’t Truth a person

Then Love is a person, Jesus Christ

If Love never comes to an end

Then Love is and will always be eternal for

Love proceeds from the Father Eternal and the Son

And St Paul preached ‘Love never comes to an end’

Then Divine Love is the core of a Covenant Marriage

For Love is the greatest

If Love never comes to an end

Though Day and Night may shift

For Love will dwell here forever

And St Paul said: ‘Love never comes to an end’

Indeed Love never comes to an end.
