Father And Son

Oh Daddy dearest;

You are so loving, you are so understanding.

Cuz, me your child, a young man;

Must be so tiring, and so demanding.

I come to You saying;

I really need that, and I really want this.

Like You are a personal genie;

Who is there, just to grant my every wish.

So Discipline me oh Father;

Teach me Your holy and blameless ways.

Guide me oh Father;

 So I may walk in Your light in all my days.

Make me an example;

Let your kingdom be glorified through me,

So that my peers may see;

That there is nothing better than, giving their lives to Thee.

Floetry: MALAWI

Floetry: MALAWI: "Malawi; the place to beMalawi; the place for meThe land of my birthWhere I took my first breathOpened my eyes for the first timeWas greeted ..."

A little dedication to the LORD

Inspired by Psalms 108:1-5 N.I.V

My heart is steadfast, O God;

I will sing and make music with all my soul.

With the last breath in my lungs, the final beat of my heart;

I shall give you my all.

Awake, harp and lyre!

I will awaken the dawn

As the sun is arising, above the horizon;

I shall greet it with a song.

I will praise you, O LORD, among the nations;

I will sing of you among the peoples.

For the LORD so dear, in my heart so near;

Has no rival has no equal.

For great is your love, higher than the Heavens;

Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

Your mercy and grace are truly blessings;

They give me the freedom of an eagle, to soar up high.

Be exalted, O God, above the Heavens;

For you hold sole control over all creation.

And let your glory be over all the earth;

Letting those who dearly and sincerely love you be blessed.

a ShOuT oUt tO ThE LoRd

Our Father in Heaven, You are holy

I sing your praise and proclaim your glory

I stand on the highest mountain, on its tallest peak

So that as I shout and as I scream!

My voice travels throughout the land across the sea

And the world hears of my Lord, my Majesty

The Ruler of the Universe, the King of kings

Creator of mankind maker of all things

Allow your power to come down and dwell within me

So I may do your good works for all eternity

In your name proclaiming love and peace

Showing kindness and mercy to those in need

Yours shall be the glory for all those good deeds

For all honour belongs to you only indeed

I shall be your loyal servant for life

I say this in the name of your son Jesus Christ.

Amen

LoVe

A poem inspired by 1 Corinthians verses 4-5

LOVE IS PATIENT,

For it is worth all the waiting

LOVE IS KIND,

For it never has evil in mind.

IT DOES NOT BOAST,

For self is never the one admired most.

IT IS NOT PROUD,

For it is humble and is never loud.

IT IS NOT RUDE,

For it is respectful and only speaks words that are good.

IT IS NOT SELF-SEEKING,

For it prays and hopes for alls’ well-being.

IT IS NOT EASLY ANGERED

For it is tolerant and well mannered.

IT KEEPS NO RECORD OF WRONGS,

For it forgives forgets and grows strong.

MALAWI

Malawi; the place to be

Malawi; the place for me

The land of my birth

Where I took my first breath

Opened my eyes for the first time

Was greeted with such a marvellous sight

Warm welcoming smiles of friendly, kind, humble people

Who were happy and content though they lived simple?

Whose traditions, culture, values

 Cuisine, beer and partying cannot be equalled.

We have so many talents, resources and skills,

So much potential to stack up those so elusive dollar bills,

We are the future; our own destiny is in our own hands,

Impossible is nothing yes we can.
