Cup of Coffee

My thoughts turn to you my friend
You who greet me every morning
You who gives me a reason to be

All my thoughts are one, to find you
So I search for you low and high
Finally joy fills my heart, you are there
My friend, my companion, my hope you are

I grew with you and you greet me back
You have always been there for me
I have known you from the beginning
And I know together for the rest of my life we will be

Flowers in the Road

Flowers that bloom, your beauty you share
Peace, tranquility and joy to all you give
Strong you are, never you give up
 
When I’m feeling down and my mood is sour
You appear before me, smile at me you do
My tears are consoled by you, my heart with joy
 
You whisper in my ear, tell me to be strong
Never give up, keep moving you say
Even if the road is hard,  even if tears come
 
Your words give me strength and I prepare to move
I stand up and glance at your beauty once more
Once again I move, in mind mind you’ll be forever more

Drops of Rain

As the drops of rain fall
The peace inside of me grows
Calmness fills my heart
Happiness is known
 
Drops of rain that fall
Wash away my sadness as you go
Fill me with a sense of worth
Make happiness be known
 
Rain that brings life to the world
Wash me and make me anew
Fill me with a sense of joy
Come and let happiness be known

Coffee, My friend

As the morning arrives
I look for you, my friend 
The one who gives me peace
The one who makes me be

Without you I am nothing
Without out you my mood is wrong
Without you people avoid me
Without out you I am not whole

Coffee, my friend you are
My one and best support
The one who gives me strength
The one who makes me whole

God’s Love

Lord in my darkest time you are my flickering light
Lord in my despairing moments you are my hope
When my knees are weary and weak you send your angles to lift me up
In times of despondent and loneliness you send your Holy Spirit to give me life once more.
When I run out of ideas, you send many
When I complain of overwhelming problems you pointed me to your cross
When the battle is hard and knowing I am lost, you send your soldiers to fight with me
When laughter seems far off
You shine your face upon me
When I feel I am unloved you reminded me that your love is greater and unending
Reminding me always that your awesome love is shown as you die on the cross.
You save us and you want us to be victorious in our adversities.
There should NOT be complaining, but thankfulness of what wonderful Lord you are.

Moods


Mood is like a swing
It swings back and forth
It is like a see saw
It goes up and down
He who loses control of its fury, fails
He who controls its anger conquered the greatest foe within

 
We can choose to be sad or happy
We can choose to be kind or generous
We can choose to practice patience
We can choose to be pessimistic or optimistic
God gives us the free will to do things, but we are given guidelines to follow
It is up to us to decide which to follow

We may encounter hardships but going through it
Has its own prize only we keep doing what is right.
Never stop doing what is good but it starts in our mind
When we think of good consequently good deeds come into place.

The Valley

Life is like a valley
There is downhill and uphill
But amidst to it is a flat surface
Life never stays the same
But is goes with the fickle world

There may be a stormy weather
There may be inundated of flood
We may be dissuaded of the adversities
We may think that there is no more tomorrow
Our desperation is empowering us

Hold onto the truth
Hold onto the serenity of hope
Hold onto the bravery and courage
Hold onto the serenity of the beauty, it brings
Hold onto the prayers in our hearts

We can conquer the world
The rainbows are always be there
Look up there!
He will never leave us
The quest for our destiny will come on His ways.

Lending Hand

Be the first one to offer
This old lady that needs a seat
Be the first one to open the door
This old man that hobbling to get through the door
Be the first one to offer food
This little boy on the street that is starving
Be the first one to volunteer
This church that needs people to serve the community
Be the first one to give a smile
This melancholy woman
Be the first to encourage
This student that is desperate to succeed
Be the first to offer joy
This employee that is sad and troubled
Be the first one to speak kind words
This youth that needs lifting of spirit
Be the first one to reconcile
This misunderstandings and troubled siblings
Be the first to visit
This aged fellow that lives in a nursing home
The world needs you to be the first to offer joy, peace and love.

Light

When life has more troubles
When miseries are too many to bear
It seems, it is so much darkness
Remember this season is provisory
This hump might be vast
But be NOT despondent
Be NOT despair either
 
Let NOT your focus on these things
Let the mind be centered on God
Whose shining lights always flicker
Do NOT keep the journey alone
No ONE should stride and trod solo
 
God sends people to rescue
Be mindful of your surroundings
One might be just the angel
That the heavenly brings your way
 
Everything is changing and fleeting
Even the high tides and low tides in the oceans
So, seek ways of being joyful
Happiness is within your grasp
Look at the flowers in the garden
The beauty of the colors or the shapes, and aroma it brings
Appreciate them as this can be good for your soul
 
The grandeur of God’s creations is many
Therefore, our lives are more worth traversing of this momentary season of life.
