Seconds pass and moments go by,
Hunger passes and sleep comes to an end,
Happiness is fleeting and sadness abides only for awhile,
But you Lord are everlasting.
So with our transient presence here,
Father, grant us the grace to worship.
Like the stars across the heavens let our praises be-
In multitude and in beauty.
Amen.

In realms seen and unseen battles are undertaken.
In places dark and murky a light has shown.
Resolutions must be made in the plains of inconsistencies.

“Which do you believe, that the world is an infinitely long chain of coincidences or that there is an orchestrator? One is terrifying, the other incredible.” – Makafui.
Each Day, He is
It is the little things and the big things;
It is the sleepless nights and dreary days;
That shave and chafe the will;
Even as He mends and heals my ills.

Sometimes…
“Sometimes you just need to listen.
Yes, you, I know you think you listen really well,
But you do not listen nearly well enough.

Quiet down. Calm down. Be still.
Then you will hear, and know, and believe.
