The Prodigal Return

 Would you accept me again?
Would you look past my filthy appearance and still call me your friend?
I admit I got beside myself. I thought I knew.
I thought I knew the way and a better path to You.

I instead missed my step. I misjudge my righteousness
I thought it was what held Your love and blessings over me, 
When it was indeed Your graciousness.
Out here, I am a different kind of broken, unable to be pieced again.
Out here my home, my gold interior room resembles a pigpen.

Lord, I want to return, to come back, what will it be?
I left on the false belief that I can be independent, but I need You to father me.
I have tasted and seen both You and the pretense of the world out there.
I have concluded that I'll rather be with You and work for an heir. 

So, will you accept me back? What do you say?
For Your acceptance I'll change my direction, I'll change my way
And although You will give it to me regardless, I still try to earn
You have already accepted me, Your love greets me halfway in my return.

Build Your Faith

  1 Kings 17:16 "For the jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry, in keeping with the word of the Lord spoken by Elijah" Hebrews 11:1 "For faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen" The verse taken from the book of 1 Kings is from the story of the lady who catered to Elijah during his time in her town.  Apparently, the lady was set to make her final meal for her and her son and then proceed to die from starvation. However, when Elijah came to her, he asked that she provide him food. She told him her plan, but Elijah still insist that she make him food and even told her that it won't be her last.  The verse tells us that the food never ran out.  She obeyed Elijah in providing a meal for him, regardless of her not seeing a way.  Although she had already come to her own conclusion, she still trusted in God that his conclusion was better and in return, she saw the hand of God move in her life. She beheld a...

Change The Environment!

  So my husband and I were having a bit of a mosquito problem. I found numerous bumps on my legs, but it puzzled me because I rarely go outside.  Thanks to COVID.  These mosquitos were living in our house. They were surviving in our house.  Now, if you know mosquitos, they require a certain kind of environment to thrive.  They would need a bushy area, preferably with puddles or swamps. So, it puzzled me how they were surviving here in my house where none of those things were. My husband later told me to take out the dishwater before bed. That if they needed water to live, then remove what is helping them.  Change the environment.  I have read that in order to get rid of something, you must change the environment or the atmosphere that it is comfortable in.  Eventually, it will have to move because it will not find a resting place there anymore.  Matthew 12:43-46 speaks on the impure spirit who abided in a person. It stated that when the perso...

Lay Low Soar High

  I know.   I know.  It's been a long time and so many things have happened that I need to share with you.   There's really no excuse for my absence other than life really taking drastic changes and me trying to maneuver in it. (I'll write a post about that later)  I want to know how everyone's has been? What's up? (Drop the comments below)  However,  I am writing today about a word that I recieved and got the pressing matter to  share.   He said its for someone, "Just because you are laying low in your life right now, does not mean He has count you out"  God said, "So often people associate the posture of laying low with negativity, but that is the enemy's thought seed planting and never His intentions".  When we worship, we get low in spirit and physical, so why would that posture that God loves be wrong.  God said, "I have placed you in that position because when I elevate you, it will be only I that gets the ...
