If you pray just for stuff
Your praying is not enough
If you pray only to complain
Your praying is not from a heart of thanksgiving
Pray when times are good
And whilst they get tough
Pray earnestly for the ambitious,
The beggar, the thief, the ole cruff
Pray to say thanks
Pray to deposit in your prayer bank
Pray when it’s hard to do
Pray, it will bring you through
Pray when you are confuse
Pray when you have nothing to lose
Pray when you are at a lost for words
Groanings will be heard
Pray without the wickedness in your heart
That is always the best place to start
Pray without ceasing, pray without end
Bless your enemies, need no reminder to pray for your friend
Watch and pray
Lest you fall into temptation and go astray

Go! Joshua Go!
Be your own cheerleader
One evening our thirty month old son was riding his red tricycle in our living room.
Up and down the room he went, knocking over just about any small item in his way.
He caught my attention as he was pedaling with such great force and determination and you would almost believe he was a contender in a race.
Soon his enthusiasm soared and he began shouting with excitement, “Go Joshua Go!”
Recognizing that he had won the attention of everyone in the house he shouted even more, “Go Joshua Go!”
Soon his excitement was felt and shared by all. This small act of enthusiasm and passion in motion was able to light up the entire room.
The bible tells us in 1 Samuel 30:6 “And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”
Shortly after King David encouraged himself, he got up and went to battle and had one of the greatest victories for the army of Israel.
Be your own cheerleader
There will be times when you must tap into the strength that God has already given you; the strength that lies within and is quickened whenever it is tested.
Be your own cheerleader as you face life’s challenges.
This is by no means underestimating the power of working together or fellowshipping among the brethren. It speaks to a time when you must become so excited and determined to move forward you will be able to affect and lift the spirits of those who too may be burdened down or greatly distressed.
Be your own cheerleader as you go about your way, you are bound to find new strength and drive to go forward.

Happiness v Joy
Happiness is me going after my dreams, my fantasies and wishes and usually leaves me with guilt or regrets.
Joy is me going after God’s dreams, his plan and purpose for my life and usually leaves me with a song in my heart even if I am in prison

I'm going to make it
I'm going to make it
It’s going to work out
Though the path I’m on seems so difficult lonely and long
I'm going to make it.
The thing I'm so worried about, in the end may never even count, its going to work out.
I am feeling down but God will lift me up,
My soul gets confused at times but its going to work out
Difficult - perhaps
But not impossible
Uncertain – at times
But faith needs just a mustard seed to work
Even when I feel like a stranger
I must find that place where I belong
It’s going to work out, I know it will
It’s going to work out
Though the path I’m on seems so difficult lonely and long
I'm going to make it.

I like to say ‘Hi!’
I like to say ‘Hi’...
Don’t ask me why...
I was taught to be polite...
Read in the bible that I am light...
You may never know...
Just how far a simple ‘Hi’ will go...
What remarkable power in a ‘Hi’...
Cause someone to smile, another to sigh...
Just like the cockatoo...
I like to say ‘Hi’ to you...
So before I bid you bye...
Here is a BIG Hi!!!!!...
(Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you) – Ephesians 4:32 NAS

Heal my heart
Every encounter I have had in the past left me with emotional scars, emotional glories or indifference. But most often I am left with a story.
These encounters then cause me to build a wall, high and wide or sometimes they just break down my wall.
It is certain that I will always take decisions based on my experiences. Oftentimes these decisions are not healthy for my future; Decisions that cause me to lose self confidence and torment my heart with fear, shyness, guilt and more.
You too have emotional encounters every single day of your life; Encounters that leave you with baggage or strip you of your joy. You then take decisions going forward which may be wrong as these only block you from being the best you that you can be.
These are decisions which sometimes cause you to lower your expectations and standards. Your heart believes the lie that you must settle for that which the word of God strictly forbids.
You start living the lie, the Deceiver then make it seems like this was just what you needed all this time, but you know within your heart your solution presents more questions than answers and brings you more trouble than ease. His prescription leaves you with too many side effects and ungodly actions and reactions.
Now you are at the place that I have been before. The place where you now realise you must stop and take stock of your life. You look at where you are now and where you want to be. You are determined to stop wasting time, stop distracting yourself and quit the idle jesting.
Then you do what I call an emotional inventory, so you look at all the bad experiences that you have had and the way they make you feel and live today. You also look at the decisions you have made from those encounters you’ve had and compare it to what the word of God says about you. Determined to move forward your soul is now ready to cry out, “Oh Lord, heal my heart”.
It is too dangerous to attempt to move forward without being healed; then again sometimes what you really need to be healed is a simple decision to move forward.

Be an Instrument God can use
What would you do if you had a piano for seventy years that was never played?
How would you feel if you were made gold but was treated like feather and you lived like a rat?
What if at the end of it all you were told that you were a predestined winner, who has never won?
Imagined God having loads of unclaimed blessings in heaven with your name on it, for which you never asked, you never tried, always thinking you are too afraid, too shy.
Do you realise what gets used stays longer and its years are extended?
Consider a shoe, a car or an article of clothing, how they last when used.
Be an instrument God can use, this is one time you really don’t mind being used, after all He created you, and He knows best, that which suits you.
I did this all for God’s Glory in 2010:
I created:
950 Thoughts
230 Poems
115 Songs and Other Music Pieces
145 Blogs
79 Other Creative Writings
Certainly there is something God can use you to do, something ordinary, something supernatural, something new, it’s entirely up to you.
Ask Him today, to use you in a powerful way and then get ready for it.

Music Mouse Trap
She was only lying to herself. She now pays the bitter price. She had no idea she would have been captured like a mouse with a trap that was so nicely decorated with cheese.
Those of us who continue to believe that music is music and it is nothing more than a form of art and entertainment, better know that something dangerous is looming on the horizon.
If you are one of those Christians who believe it is perfectly ok to listen to just about any type of music whether on your own ipod, computer, phone or those of your unsaved friends, then you better know that you are walking in the devil’s forte.
Over the last 36 months I have made several presentations on the impact of music on human behaviour, highlighting how the music affects the way we think, act and who we ultimately become. I have used several scripture references to show that once our desires are not in line with what God desires for us we are most likely treading down the wrong road. I have also pointed out the importance of making good daily choices.
The world is already trapped, no question about that, as the head of the world’s music is one who was once the best in heaven. He now stands as a great musician, composer, arranger etc. He waits like a bear in the woods wanting to get the heads of especially those who are in music in the Kingdom of God, so watch out. His name is Lucifer, a deceiver. He has so much experience deceiving people I sometimes wonder why we think we can single handedly out wit him.
Sad to say, too many have already been caught by his ‘mouse trap’. I like to call it ‘MUSE – SICK’, amuse them while making them spiritually, emotionally and physically sick. You are likely to pay attention to whatever entertains you and whatever entertains you and get your attention find it easier to make its way into your heart and into your soul; Without you even knowing it or being aware of it sometimes you find yourself in a mouse trap and in need of rescue. I pray your eyes will be open and you will discern the enemy’s cunning devices. Otherwise, self deception will lead you into self destruction.

Just for Married Folks and Prospectives
Some of us married folks are really going to burn in hell if we do not change our ways. We murmur and complain and become ever so bitter towards each other as if God doesn’t and has never done anything right in our lives.
We are sulky and angry at almost everything, we become like the Children of Israel who God delivered from a bad place with a great promise of better but because of their disobedient and evil heart they never made it save two persons. In retrospect some of us are coming from a bad place and our marriage and family relationship may not be the ideal and quite a distant from the paradise some of us seek but it is still worth giving thanks for.
I have found that some singles do find themselves in a similar position as well and are also in need of healing lest they perish. If our souls are with our real lover, Jesus Christ the groom, then we will find so much more to be thankful for and so fewer opportunities to bicker.
The bride must become spotless to meet her groom and while you are busy counting others’ spots, be careful those spots aren’t transferred to you. Change your ways, time is running out.

A brand new day awaits you…
A brand new day awaits you…
They call it tomorrow…
A brand new day awaits you…
Free of worry, trials and sorrow…
A brand new day awaits you…
You can sing sweet melody like the sparrow…
A brand new day awaits you…
After all this, a new season must begin…
A brand new day awaits you…
This fight, this struggle, you will win
They call it tomorrow…

Emotional tangle
Emotional tangle
It can be too much to handle
Emotional confusion
Unclear motivation
Confronting, understanding
My emotional complication
Rescue me from this situation
Mental frustration
I react off the cuff
As though the earlier problems were not enough
In an unstructured discourse
I felt like I was force, now deep remorse
So I speak my mind
Though mean and unkind
Now I am twice disturbed
Thrice perturbed
“Good Heavens!” My anger tree must curb
It’s happening!
“No, its not”
It’s happening!
“No, its not”
All in one body
All in one head
Come alive
Then drop dead
What do I want?
“I want that which I don’t want”
So I let go of that which I want to hold
Cuddling with warm embrace
While saying, “Stay outta my face!”
What do I want?
Oh God I need your help
My emotional drama
Each separated by a comma
In a minute I love what I hate
Then excited over what soon bore me, sealing my fate
Émouvoir
French emotion
Move, strong devotion
Drive, elation
All in one body
All in one head
Come alive
Then drop dead
Later I’ll be ecstatic
Electric, a fanatic
Bombarded by fear
Having no care
Doubt and uncertain
Then suddenly all is clear
Oh, what is this my Dear?
All in one body
All in one head
Come alive
Then drop dead
Emotional tangle
It can be too much to handle
No. 1 reason I do what I do
Led by the emotions rather than the heart
Oh it’s tearing me a part
Emotion needs no reason
At times may use a season
Then another moment, high treason
All in one body
All in one head
Come alive
Then drop dead
Emotional tangle
It can be too much to handle
(Those who struggle with the emotional highs and lows, learn the importance of replacing that part of you with faith, faith in a God who is far more powerful than your emotional experiences)

I Survived Home
A new day breaks
Greeted by aged old heart aches
A place call home for loving hearts
A master piece work of art
The irony of this symphony
My place of safety
Love sanctuary
Has become my Calvary
To help me the evil dispel
Is now my living hell

Be Obedient
Why do you ask questions when you don’t want answers?
Why do you want me to speak when you are not listening?
And why do you ask me to lead when you want to follow the path of your own?
Why do you hear my words, and then disobey?
You asked me to order your steps but yet you keep running away from me
You believe I always watch over you, surely I always do, even though I don’t like all the things you do.
You said I should hold your hands and lead you into the unknown
But you only want to go the way you know
You just don’t understand, for you, I have the perfect plan
There are doors that have failed to open because you are not walking with me…And those doors already open will only take you down a path further and further away from me
You said I should control your lips but you keep on speaking and singing lewd language
You Gossip, you carry tale and oh God knows what else…that’s right I do know what else…
You said I should keep your mind pure yet you keep harbouring unwholesome thoughts and imaginations
My words are true…
My mercies each day are new…
If you really want to worship me…be obedient
Why do you want me to speak when you are not listening?

The Burden of a Girl's Heart - Prayer
Oh God,
You are God of all creation, human and wisdom.
You reign supreme.
Oh God, you know the cries of my heart
Some things I just don’t understand.
Why a mother hates her child,
Or a child hates his/her mother
I don’t quite know why mom and dad just doesn’t seem to get along
Nor do I understand why it seems as though dad hates his child
And why the child hates dad
How can a place of love and protection
Be packed with so much hatred, bitterness and danger?
God, Almighty!
Where have we gone wrong?
The devil is certainly having a field day in our family
We have a spare room around the back, I am sure that is where he sleeps at nights.
Sisters and brothers hating each other so much they try to kill each other
And sometimes they do succeed.
God, in all this madness
Fill my heart with gladness
Hear the cries of your children,
The cries of children being hurt and cursed,
The sadness and pain of children being battered and abused
A land in ruins, a family in turmoil
“The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish pulls it down with her hands” (Proverbs 14:1)
“A wise man builds his house upon a rock…” Matt. 7:24
Why a teen, a child like me should carry such a burden?
So God, I write you this prayer from eyes swollen with tears
I write you with a heart so filled with anguish and hate, for my parents taught me well
Sometimes God, Dad, I wonder what was it like when my parents were children
Did their parents hate them too?
God for four years now I tried killing myself, I have now concluded that even death hates me
So now I want to live and find true love in the world,
I believe I was made for better.
Help me to show that with you in my life, a mess can become a message
Help me God to find better, help me to endure, help me to find joy, in Jesus name.
Amen

His soul search for home…
A man wanting to give love and care…
Not quite the story we often hear…
His heart desires to be home…
Instead it seldom wanders but never roams…
A soul caught within a love-net…
Leaves the faint discouraged and perplexed…
A man, no boy…
Must he treat love like a toy?...
He won’t even bet on it…
A chance too great to take…
A man wanting a girl…
Someone he can call his precious pearl…
A man wanting a wife…
With whom he can joyfully share his life…
A man wanting a son…
A lad to perpetuate his legacy…
A bitter taste in the heart…
Hunts for the sugar sweet love of his heart…
As the lungs need air…
He wants his love to be near, be there…
A man longing for a touch…
English, Spanish, French or Dutch…
A man wanting to give love and care…
Not quite the story we often hear…
If while giving…
He too starts receiving…
A soul searching for home…
Ends the seeking, the hunting when it finds Home!

Ends the seeking, the hunting when it finds Home!

Caged No More…
Caged no more
Free to fly
Free to soar
~~
A bit taken aback
You standing still
Carrying the past in your pack
~~
Confinement your testament
You ask oh why
A mind in predicament
~~
Hands and feet no longer bound
Yet you standing still
Thralldom compound
~~
Stop this human greed
Hoarding the basics
While another dies from need
~~
Caged no more
Free to fly
Free to soar
~~
A bit taken aback
You standing still
Carrying the past in your pack
~~
The Slave encaged by the Master
But still keep his will
The Superior enslaved by greed, a sheer disaster
~~
Caged no more
Both must be free
Free forever, free forevermore

Knock…knock…Your success is at the door
Knock…knock…who’s there? ... Your success...
If you were told that your success is just outside your door, what would you do?...
Knock…knock…and the knocking continues…you need to make the next move...
The next move to get just what you have always wanted...
You have been praying for your breakthrough for a long time now...
Finally, your answer is just outside the door...
Perhaps too you are thinking, “Yeah right!”...
“If only life was that simple…”
But let us suppose again that life was always simple...
And our faith is what determines how simple or complex life becomes
“Really now?...”
Sure…it is as simple as opening the door and allowing success to come inside...
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” – St. Matthew 7:7 – “Join the 7:7 Prayer”...
There are some considerations too…Time is essential as success will only wait on your response for a specific time…the offer wont last forever…It will soon move to the next available door, obedient heart or determined bidder....
If you were told that there is just one small problem that is standing between you and success…would you be willing to make that change?...
Would you know what is standing in your way?...
Your ‘door’ may be a bad habit...
Or it may be your intemperance, impatience, your slothfulness or foolish pride...
It may be that you just didn’t ask....
Whatever it is, how prepared are you to open that final door and allow success to walk right in?
Join the 7:7 prayers…let’s make success walk right through your door.

The Best Two-Word Conversation I Know...
Thank You…
Sharing these two words with you, there isn’t much else to say or do…
Thank You…
For all you have given, done and continue to do...
Thank you…
For staying the course...
Thank you…
You stuck to the task...
Thank you…
Now we have fond memories, forever they’ll last...
Thank you…
The best two-word conversation I know...
Thank you…
Even the smallest act of kindness or caring gesture will ignite a heart and cause it forever to glow

He's living a lie
He calls himself a saint...
Poisoned by his own lust he grows faint...
He makes the altar a place of shame...
Partaking in the name without playing the game...
His gift and status, a young girl's deception...
Uncovered by her conception...
This 'priest' with a soul of charm...
Yet another prey he hunts then harm...
When the prophet rebukes...
Forsake the stubbornness of age and the folly of youth...
The fragrance of deception...
Can you tell by mere smell...
cloak-and-dagger, guileful pursuit...
He wears a lie in his profession...
That keeps him at peace without confession...
Not one with The Creator...
Rather the Deceiver...
