We Were The Reason

As little children, we would dream of Christmas morn
And all the gifts and toys we knew we'd find
But we never realised a baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives

We were the reason that He gave his life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live


We were the reason that He gave his life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live


This is my gift to them,He said.The reason to live.I traded my dignity and body for their salvation.This is My gift to every person on this earth immaterial of time and place.All that was done was in the name of My and My Father's love.A royal priesthood,a holy nation.A life of victory led by the fruits of the Spirit.Love,joy,peace,patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness,gentleness and self-control.

I did not give you any sweets

I made you do assement books repeatly

I was harsh to you

I never praised you once

I gave you challenges that you thought you couldn't do

But,my child

You did them all

My child

I love you

My love for you was silent

Unfathomable

Complex

You never understood why I refused to cocoon and cuddle you

I set you questions that you couldnt answer

Because I didnt want you to be proud

I don't want your talent to become your poison

I gave you challenges that seem unattainable to you

Because I refused to believe that you were dumb

My child,

I loved you not for the drawings you gave me

But for who you are

Beneath your michief

Is a heart of purity

When I saw how the world threatened to corrupt you

or take away your innocence

I cried out

in anger and indignition

My reprimandation was harsh

I didnt want to see you walk the path of darkness

My child

the greatest gift I can give you

is the reason to live

I lashed out at you

when you felt dejection from you results

or when you called yourself stupid

If you surrender at this juncture in life

Then I ask

Is this your miracle?

Is this the product of your spirit soul and heart?

I didnt encourage you

Because I wanted you to find the strength and courage inside you

I see it in you

But you don't

because you are blinded by your misery

Children,

Our friends and family will help us through a crisis

But the first step

is ours to take

my child

we choose

if we want to live or die

And

my dear children

it is never easy to choose

This is my gift to you

Strength that will waver but never falter

Courage that will not fight but defend

Stand at the crossroads

Seek out the ancient paths

And,you will find rest for your souls

Eyes that are never seeing

Ears that are never hearing

One holy voice


in ur anger,do not sin......seek to forgive n to be forgiven....

buwee....

dui bu qi......

Empty sea shells

Packets of green tea

Empty bottles of birdnest

A green handphone pouch

26 alphabets

infinite combinations

each with connotations to speak of

Crucify my love


If my love is blind
Crucify my love
If it sets me free
Never know Never trust
That love should see a color
Crucify my love
If it should be that way

Swing the heartache
Feel it inside out
When the wind cries
I’ll say good-by
Tried to learn tried to find
To reach out for eternity
Where’s the answer
Is this forever

Like a river flowing to the sea
You’ll be miles away and I will know
I know I can deal with the pain
No reason to cry

Til the loneliness shadows the sky
I’ll be sailing down and I will know
I know I can clear clouds away
Oh is it a crime to love

Tears fighting against the rain

Drop by drop

Converging on her face

Where were her eyes?

How could she see the world through such an obscurtion?

Glancing up,

She croaked

God,take my tears away

My child,

You never surrendered your feelings completely to Me

You were blinded by your desires

I granted you wisdom

Yet,

You could not fathom between a shield and sword.

A heart of passion

A heart of joy

A heart of good cheer

A character of Barnabas

An emotion of thasnkgiving

A mind of determination

I will sing a song of praise to God Almighty

Someone asked me once,what do I see in front of me?I said,I see a stack of bricks,a bag of cement and a jar of water.

Keeping her eyes on asphalt ground

She pondered

about what she wanted to do

She took one brick

placed it close to her feet

A handful of cement was stirred with water

Like Kaya and bread

She layered the mixture on the brick

Block by Block

She placed them side by side

over and under each other


Watch the bricks as they grow,but keep your eyes on their growth and not their finale.

Flipping open an ancient scroll

my eyes travel down each line

transpassing the contents

For my heart knows

the depth and the truth of it all

time does not wash everything away

time does not allow us to harbour

or ignore

the crater of this earth

What is the author to do?

Reviewing it brings thou non comfort

thou shall bow to Holy will of God
