Tears From My Soul

Tears fall, my heart ablaze,
The war rages on, day after day.
As humanity turns on itself,
The light is fading in our souls

The devil laughs, his grip grows tight,
Rejoicing in mankind’s fall.
Compassion dim and frail,
Where kindness seems to fail.

How has man allowed darkness to reign?
Why do we heed its call?
Each choice, each right, an excuse to be cruel,
Hearts are growing cold, forsaking the rule.

I weep, my heart cries out in pain,
For mankind to let the light shine in,
To open doors for heaven’s reign,
And let true peace begin.

Stop the darkness in your heart,
Be still and end the killings,
Let love and mercy lead the way,
And step into the light.

Peace In My Heart

I sought for peace in restless days,
In shadows thick with fear,
And silence held me tight,
But now I’ve found this sacred gift.

In the stillness of my soul,
A mantle of unshakable calm,
Through storms, it holds me true,
An anchor in life’s tempest waves.

This peace that passes human thought,
A gift from heaven’s hand,
In gentle, quiet flowing,
In God’s sweet grace, I stand.

John 14:27 – Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

Knocking and Waiting

When you knock on a door, you must wait for someone to open it and let you inside. This simple concept carries profound meaning when applied to our spiritual lives as reflected in Psalm 27:14, which tells us, “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.” Life often throws arrows of disappointment, tribulations, and sorrow our way. These events are inevitable for both believers and unbelievers. When one of these arrows hits us, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed and lost. But during these times of trial, remember to knock and wait on God’s door.

Keep knocking, God knows.
Keep waiting, patience will see you through.
Keep praising, let your heart sing.

Keep hailing, he hears,
Yahweh sees and knows it all,
In his set time, He’ll answer your call.

Why I Smile

A smile is a candle burning so bright and comes naturally to me, healing my soul. I extend it to others because it promises comfort and completes a moment. Smile often and watch how it positively alters fate around you, among your friends and loved ones. Your smile reveals a light for all to see, and embrace a heavenly gift to let your heart shine.

I smile for Jesus, my true light,
In His love, I find pure delight.
Through every trial, He stands by me,
His sacrifice set me free.

I cast my fears upon him.
For Jesus, my Savior,
My soul’s delight.
I smile for Him, for I am set free.

Small Gifts Leading to Greater Rewards

Life has moments where we overlook the seemingly small and insignificant things that come our way. When God gives us something small, He builds our faith, patience, and stewardship, preparing us for the beauties of life. So please stay faithful, and be anxious for nothing.

It may appear challenging and insignificant but understand that He values our efforts to utilize and cultivate what He has given, regardless of its size. By faithfully managing the small things, we create an opportunity for God to bless us with greater blessings and responsibilities.

With small gifts, the character grows,
Preparing me for blessings that overflow.
An invitation to grow and soar,
To embrace with diligence.

A journey of a thousand miles,
a single step begins,
In the smallest seeds,
the bigger harvest spins.

I am trusting in God’s timing.
For in these beginnings,
His best plans unfold,
Leading to blessings a thousandfold.
