Lonely Night!


Tonight, I'm all alone,
Loneliness, who have not known?
Even a heart that is hard as stone,
Would melt, and cry in a groan,
If one stays in this building as I, alone!

I should not put on all the light,
For I wouldn’t be able to pay the bill,
Though darkest it looks to me this night!
Hmm! To spend the time of loneliness is a skill!

I can’t afford to call up friends,
For morrow's Sermon needs attention.
As if everything’s alright I pretend,
Though I yearn a soothing conversation!

Back to my table, I must, to study,
Or get my knees to the floor to pray,
Before all my emotions get muddy,
Maybe that’s how one drives emotion away!

not To Teach a Lesson


The father did not 'teach
the prodigal son a lesson,'
Neither God sent Christ
to 'teach us a lesson,'
Nor am I here to
'teach anyone a lesson.'

How Often


How often do I strive
to act like a vibranium pot,
when actually we're just clay pots
with heavenly treasure!

 How often do I strive
to receive the gift,
when actually the gift
is the prerogative of God the giver!

Ministry of Gospel is a mercy of God;
and so prudent wife comes from the Lord!

Mercy and this gift are for people undeserving, unqualified;
but to live worthy of them, and never to get disqualified!
And when all is said and done, you'll look back and
affirm, “that's the best thing it can ever happen!”

Pondering Over A Sermon

Last night I listened to Costi Hinn,
The strange nephew of Benny Hinn.
Benny Hinn, a filthy rich heretic,
Costi Hinn moved away, not a lunatic.
Surely, the riches of Christ unfurled
Surpass the pleasures of the world!

 Oh, what a great sermon!
Oh, what a conviction!
Preaching with authority
From the word of God accurately;
Faithfulness of an under-shepherd,
Not worldly-success must be our effort!

50 years of Macarthur shield
Resonating never to yield
To the call of worldly pleasure,
For indeed we have a greater treasure
Of God to dispense relentlessly,
That’s the real pleasure endlessly.

Attitude of a shepherd in the morn
Could be a horn or a thorn,
Rewards or Judgment from the Lord.
Distraction and laziness we can’t afford!
Shouldn’t the first hour of the day
We delight to devote our time to pray?

Indeed, Twitter, WhatsApp, news,
On the phone, we are to refuse.
The true condition of the flock
Only known when to God we talk.
May the Lord in the morn be our priority!
Would that be your unwavering integrity?
