Marriage of the Moon

The moon got engaged to the rain

Oh no, I am by no means insane

In the brightness of the night

Pure and lovely light



Cool, serene, nature display

Almost took my breath away

On this night all nature will sing

As the precious moon now wears her ring

Fix it Daddy!

Ever so often when a toy gets broken I would hear the voice of my two year old son shouting out,
“Fix it daddy! Daddy fix it”
Somehow I think he believes that daddy is able to fix everything.
I have had to tell him that daddy isn’t superman and even superman needs a little help every now and again.
He is however convinced that daddy is able to fix if not all, most things.
Seeing me conduct repairs on a few of his broken toys has led him to the conclusion that daddy can fix it.

We have troubles and problems that sometimes seem to overwhelm us.
They grow much bigger than we can even think or imagine.
Sometimes the issues we face at school, at home, church or work seem to flood us out and cause us to want to give up.
Then there comes a gentle voice asking us, “Why don’t you ask daddy to fix it?”

The bible says, “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.”

Let daddy fix it.

My son soon learn that I wasn’t about to fix all his problems especially the ones he could have prevented.
So right now he has a few broken toys at home that I have no intention of repairing.
He must realise that while he has his father’s covering he must not deliberately destroy what has been given to him.

We are no different when dealing with our heavenly father; we sometimes intentionally create problems, and whenever they become too much for us we throw our hands in the air in utter frustration.
God wants to give you life, but if you intentionally take your own life, you have made matters worse.

Surely God can fix all of our problems, but there are no doubt some that we can fix or prevent on our own. Walk in wisdom and raise the standard of your life, be determined that you were made for better. Make a promise to live beyond your current struggles, pray and ask God to help you to walk in dominion.
