Wherever You Are


At this very moment 
wherever you are
maybe in an uncomely place
where smiles and laughters
are mere dreams...
where tears and misery are realities...
where every drop of rain
barren souls quenching...
where every setting and rising of the sun
a wish for true morrows 
for each one...

Breathe...I say...
Just let your heart beat...
and feel the wind brushing in your skin
Just let the sunshine 
meet you in every mornings
and let the dark night bring you 
in slumber and sleep...
Though in tears allow no fear 
to break your heart apart...
Believe in your worth 
Believe in God's divine providence
Believe in His amazing grace...

Poverty


Poverty 
doesn't mean 
having nothing
Abundance
doesn't mean 
having everything

Needy is the one 
that possesses 
all that he can have 
yet the heart remains empty

Happy is the man
having a handful in his hand
yet grateful with all that he has
with all that he can...

Remain in Him





When your pocket is empty 
and your table so barely 
do not dismay
God has never failed 
to feed the birds of the air...
God will never fail 
to send His angels 
to provide for thee...
But take heed of this...
Be near God so He be near...
He knocks on your door 
to sup with you
if you let Him in...
Stay close to Him
Let your hearts remain in Him
and He will stay close 
and will remain in you...
Fiery arrows in life may hit you hard
But in the middle of the storms 
God will hold you up 
till your morning comes...
