  • I will not forget

    I will not forget

    I know. I’ve known what it is to believe. I’ve known what it is to host Your presence I’ve known what it is to sing Your songs I’ve know what it is to be lost in You. What a privilege! I’ve known what it is to be free. I’ve known what it is to be…

  • Too Deep

    This vault is too deep, too old. I used to think it’s better forgotten. Somehow it has managed to hold me down  To give it to You, I’ll have to remember it And honestly I’ll rather not. It’s so easy to hide & eventually forget  It’s easier to numb the pain & move on. It…

  • Still

    Still

    In the midst of chaos  I’ll choose to stay in Your presence  And when I’m having good run I’ll anchor my trust in You. When life gets too busy May I never be too busy for You. When my soul is being attacked with distractions  Let my heart find rest in You. When I feel…

  • Emotional Baggage

    Emotional Baggage

    It’s a lot of load  When I try to unpack, It’s overwhelming  So I let my thoughts slack.  I have to be true to myself I don’t know as much as I do know. When you’re moving in circles  There’s really no end. I speak in parables  And write with riddles  To soften the emotional…

  • WTT?

    WTT?

    The biggest lie will be to say I understand. My biggest act has been to believe  My strongest character has been to hold unto faith. I show up in delusion. I’ve come back in my confusion. With teary eyes For the visions you gave that are now blurry. For the words you’ve said that’s been…

  • Gratitude

    Gratitude

    I’m overwhelmed with gratitude  First to God and for his everlasting love  I’m grateful for his unending mercies  I’m grateful for the gift of living for Him I’ve had questions  Fears & Tears  Answered & Unanswered prayers  In all of it He’s still God! I’m grateful for my Family For my Parents love and affection …

  • Running on Empty

    Running on Empty

    Lord, I’ve been running on empty  But you’ve filled me up again  Right before I fail, you’ve kept me. My daily to do’s Kept me from doing your will, But I’m only here because you’ve kept me. I’ve been running on empty. In vain I tried to fill up myself  I know better, but even…

  • Left

    Left

    Lord there’s still some me left. Is it a mistake if I keep doing it all the time? All these pressure push me to the crime  Don’t give up on me yet. Lord there’s still some me left  I hear my pride everytime I talk  I see the errors in my walk  I should’ve followed…

  • Everyday

    How can I live for You? How can I be like You daily? What does it mean to You? How can I be Christ like everyday? I have my moments  Sometimes I’m pumped and energized, My flesh is starved While my spirit is active.  On those days I pray with a revelation. I speak wisdom…
