Peace I give you...


Peace I  leave you
My Peace I give you

A Peace forever absolute
Held in the Virgin's arms
Queen of Peace pray for us

Peace spells around little me
Witness of its fitted depths
Peace has won me over

Peace my sweet breakfast
Peace my glamorous red carpet
Peace spells around little me

Peace spells around little me
Peace indescribable ritual of mercy
Peace sculpted in Gregorian chants

Peace divinely fleshed of Isaiah's mouth
Peace Yahweh gives of Chapter 66:12

Look I am going to send peace flowing 
over her like a river, and like a stream 
in spate the glory of the nations.


Peace I  leave you
My Peace I give you...

Poem 82: Shine You (Weekly Post #9)


Daughter Shine You
Consecrated to Mary
I sleep me in peace
 
Daughter Shine You
Belonging all to Mary
I walk confident
 
Daughter Shine You
Entrusted all to Mary
I stand me trusting

102 Days -115 Poems - 15 Posts (Poem 85)

Dear Readers,

today's poem is about what God destines us for at times.

How do we where to go? How do we know what to do?

Today around discussions with my aunties, we were reflecting

on destiny, and how do we walk in God's will for us if we don't

keep reminding ourselves again and again that God is God.

What is destiny? Does it not link with the confidence of Jesus words 'Be not Afraid'

Then, we realise that there is a reason why it is written 365 times in the Scriptures.

104 Days - 117 Poems - 15 posts (Poems 82, 83)

Dear Readers,

the poems 82 and 83 are about children. It sprang from a discussion
about how parents can successfully raise children with God's help.
It sprang from how both sons and daughters are to be taught to honour
themselves and the opposite gender.

These are simple Haikus

118 Days -133 Poems - 18 Posts (Poems 63, 64, 65, 66, 67)

Dear Readers,

it's been 2 days and my pen agreed to fly its way on paper and inscribe the deepest thoughts of my heart.
Inspiration ranged from the Gospel of Luke 12: 13-21 with Jesus warning about accumulating material
wealth and not sharing; Poems 63 and 64. 

Then I open myself to pen about the joy that has been flowing from my heart. - The gift of Joy!!! Simply priceless... (Poem 65)

Poem 66 was about the beauty of thinking yet the dangers of allowing our reasoning to mislead us and lead us astray. This resulted from a friendly conversation a sister in Christ and I exchanged, and listening to her again made me realize how little we challenge our thoughts when it comes to reconciling the teachings of Christianity and science. Though I suggested to her to read the book "Faith & Reason" by Dr. Scott Hahn, Icould not resist writing
a Haiku about it...

Poem 67- the poem written today was inspired by the stories of amazing women of faith God has put on my path; I look at them, their faith, how they instill patience, perseverence, prayer and total surrender to God's Will in my Life and I feel enriched by them. I am grateful to God for them.

121Days - 139 Poems - 18 Posts (Poem 61)

My dear Readers,

today I wish to thank all those of you who are taking the time to stop by and read.I see that I am blessed to have readers from many places as the map displays all the different countries following.

Today, so much happened. I am not sure where to start, so I will simply focus on the moment that inspired one of the poems - A thorough discussion on the Sacrament of Reconciliation at a gathering sparked the poem of tonight. Let us live convicted! Let us walk the path of Holiness... We are called to be Saints, and the path of sanctity is one of love that requires work: patience, mortification, and trust in God; Let us be aware of things that cause us to compromise God's Love in our life through venial sins that accumulate and become habits. Because God wishes to heal us, renew us and strengthen us, we must not like what has caused us to fall said the speaker. We find ourselves repeating the same sins again and again, because we forget to resolve ourselves to not commit those again. We forget that Jesus resurrected. We forget to hope. In fulfilling our penances, we do our best to not let our weaknesses take over, we surrender to God. Let us be strong, and know the sacrament of Reconciliation washes us and cleanses us.I was really inspired tonight.

Yet dear Readers, there will be lots of writing happening this weekend, and I am excitingly looking forward to it.
Do any of these writings inspire you? Do you agree with some? disagree with others ? Do they inspire to stand and do something you are called to as well? Do share your thoughts I hope :-)

Dear Readers, I am going joyfully to rest...

In planning for tomorrow, it is also great to be thankful for what we have today.
