What is life

 What is life
Or the meaning of it all!
I eat and I pray
Today I see the sky
And tomorrow I will see it again.
One of my friends rejoice
For tomorrow he marries
Whilst another 
Is in deep mourning. 
O Sun you burning flame of gas
Is Jupiter the works of your hand?
French fries are better with salt
Open to hear the song bird sing 
A dirge or a bliss but will I be in tune?
Love is kind, when it ends
Death kisses the hand of him 
Whom fate has destined to fall by the flame
Or natural, of which old age has claimed.
What is life and what are we living for?
Collectively it does not exist 
Because individually we must close our eyes.
Fools, there is a God whom we have all ignored
And smitten us with his gentle bow
For we fail to bow the knee.
I know if this is all I know,
Jesus is King and to this King I sow
All of my threads, weaved in sin I wish I did not know
But the drink takes me to places 
That makes me not sow.

I will Ascend

 Humility smiles as Diligence seeks
For the poor to please
Another soul to release
From burden that we must all bear
But not in equal weights!
Are God's blessings blind like Justice?
Why they and not me?
The world spins
But we are not the sun!
Blessed peace
I abandoned by my careless ways,
And I fail because I bow to sin's desires,
Even Rome, fell!
The devil fell,
Christ descended
But only He ascended
And mankind will once again ascend,
I rejoice to when 
Jacob's ladder I will Ascend.

Many begin to love God

 Many begin to love God
But fail to finish.
The lust of the world takes them
And like Demas, they are gone.
It begins slowly,
A little here and there.
Diligence slowly gives way,
Discipline to prayer goes away. 
Many begin to love God
But very few finish.
But those whom God has eternally Loved
Will never lose His Eternal Love.

Night of Sorrow

 Night of sorrow
Came on the wings of an Eagle's flight.
To the mountain of doom
We all marched to bow to death
But not to fear.

Help me, O Lord.

 The grace of God of God is deep and wide. We must cling to it for it is our only hope in Christ Jesus. Some have fallen so deep because they failed in their obedience, but yet will not deny the faith and some have maintained their faith and denied the world. We must pray for each other and bring back those brothers who are dejected because of their unrighteousness. It is a good thing that that they feel the pain of their cowardice and should have known better that God's kindness should always lead to repentance. Yet they struggle with this and often kiss the feet of the world. We ought to pity them but Christ has not forsaken them because they are his. And for us who are strong, we should not forsake them too but admonish them as much as we can and leave them into the strong hands of Christ. If you are a brother in this state, who kisses the world yet hates it, forsake the world now and be in full surrender to Christ Jesus. O, forgive us for our evil ways for i have misjudged the power of sin. No matter the years, it can still rise with his full force falling the greatest of saints. O, I remember David and Peter! Even after their great repentance, they still fell. O, Help us all. Help me to help me and to help my brothers and sisters in the faith.

A flower fell

 A flower fell
In A well,
The slave
Drew it unknowingly
And ended in the Maid's bath. 
Heavenly scent
She was lost 
In the thought of a prince
Who never came,
Ended in a convent
Sweet Mary was 
Always full of grace.

Joys of confession

 Dear Lord, 

My Sins are plentiful. I have drunk deep in the world and followed every course of debauchery. But your ways remain deep in me. I remember Jerusalem and your temple, I long to return, but my sins keep me chained to the world. O, free me, dear Lord. Set me free that I may rejoice in the ways of salvation again. I have made many mistakes and kissed many forbiden fruits, O, Help me for I long to kiss heaven and rest in the bossom of my Saviour.
