“Follow The Light“

You go ahead of me, leading the way

I follow the light as the night turns into day

My foundation is solid not sand

The storm is strong but my house will stand

To live is simple in this I abide

The road is narrow, which very few find

Ask, seek, knock, the door is opened

never locked

Clean up my stains before I complain on your spots

No worrying about necessities, faith and trust is key

Love my neighbor as myself

Put you before anything else

If they ask me to go a mile with them, you say go with them two

If my heart is pure I know I’ll see you

You go ahead of me, leading the way

I follow the light as the night turns into day

This is for a poem a day, day number 3… and this is simply and Ode to the light I follow, some things I try to put into practice that Jesus taught in the sermon on the mount, probably the greatest sermon of all time. Hope you enjoy!

“Anymore room”

I wrote this for the poem a day challenge for April, today we were supposed to write about space, so here it is! The idea behind this poem is having the space to grow, and knowing that it’s ok to outgrow the current space that we’re in… growth is a part of life and if we’re not growing, we may technically be living, but are we really alive? Even though we may feel stuck at a certain place in our existence, it’s important to know that we all have room (or space) to grow, and grow and grow some more. Hope you enjoy!

Concentrate. Meditate. Elevate.

Focus on what you want, close your eyes and picture it, hold that image in your mind and feel what it would feel like to have that experience, repeat this practice as often as you possibly can and if you trust and believe in the process and have a little patience, you will begin to see your thoughts become things, your dreams made into reality. Concentrate. Meditate. Elevate… pass it on 😉

Disappointment can really do a number on you… I’ve come to realize that over time all of the disappointment I’ve faced has lowered my expectations. I don’t expect much from anyone, and maybe that attitude has rolled over into my relationship with myself and God… maybe I’ve gotten so used to disappointment that I don’t even think of contentment as an option… maybe I’m just afraid to raise my expectations out of fear that I’ll just be disappointed again… but what kind of life is that to live? I don’t want to live life expecting disappointment, so I know I need to put my trust in something bigger than me… as I prayed last night, I feel like God told me that it was ok to trust Him, so I’m gonna try it out.

Arrange your words carefully…

I would consider myself a person who is very encouraging, someone who can find the good in almost everything… so to my surprise I recently found out from my husband that sometimes, I’m not as careful with my words as I could be or as careful with my words as I thought I was. This is something that I am now aware that I need to work on, I never want to be the thief of joy. There are many levels to this concept, sometimes you may have to be the bearer of bad news… but when I can help it, I want to make sure that my words are helpful and not harmful.
