A SISTER WITH A HEART OF GOLD!


 

A Sister With A Heart Of Gold!


Gold is mentioned eleven chapters earlier:and listed over a hundred times more: the first and last to be mentioned than Silver in the Holy Bible. Heaven has more use for Gold than Silver. Heaven is Golden!

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold: Like Gold, she'll never know her worth. Heaven's streets are paved with Gold and yet Gold has never been told. She'll never ever discover who she really is.

Gold was designed and made by God:first to last and to end last than all the other minerals: her worth is priceless and everlasting.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold: Like Gold, she'll never know her worth. Designed and made by God: first to last and to end last than all her siblings

Growing up as an orphan early in my life:losing my mother was the hardest blow any boy-child could ever bear.

I thought and felt hopelessly motherless, until my Sister with her heart of Gold stepped inside Mom's giant shoes. She excelled in every way and completely established her motherly role in my life.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold: Like Gold, she'll never know her worth. She'll never know how much she's worth to me, even though I've told her a million times: like Gold, she just don't care or mind.

Like Mother would have, my Sister provided me with everything I needed as much as she could afford. She begged and borrowed just to feed and cover my back. She's my ever-present Angel.

I only have sweet memories with my Sister, except for once in my life. I was offended when she got married and was never used as her confetti boy. I was enraged even more since the other boy was not even my brother.

I bolted out of her wedding without even eating this I recall, was the only sad moment ever with my Sister my life thru. Jealousy got the worst of me.

It was not her call to make, as decisions were forcefully taken on her behalf. Her malleable heart of God allowed her to stretch thin: long enough for me to catch up later as I come of age.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold: she gathers no dust and never gets corrodedby her ungrateful siblings even at worst of times: she continues in her golden strides.

At times, with tears in her eyes, she'd vow to never take care of her abusive brothers, ever in her life again: easier said than done.

I'd laugh and mock her to dream on: As this was God's mission for her life: to always give without receiving. Her heart of Gold would never allow her to muddy her soul and self-worth.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold: like Gold, she'll never know her worth. Like Gold in the Bible and in Heaven: she'll always be first and last in this heart of mine. She's my world.

She'll never know how much she's worth to me, even though I've told her a million times: like Gold, she just don't care or mind.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold, all others can only dream and wish for!

Like Fine Gold, she's pricelessand worth more than all the Silver in the world. Maureen is my Sister with a heart of Gold: like Gold, she'll never ever know her worth.

I have a Sister with a heart of Gold.

MY BABY.... SHE'S ALL I GOT!

Feelings, in whatever mood matter sometimes.. . If I must open the window of my heart and let you see the real backdrop behind this narrative... this is it. After being let down by my first daughter and after we've agreed for her to meet her little sister for the very first time... I was very distraught. She withdrew at the last minute. I went to bed with a very heavy heart. I believe the Spirit whispered inside my sad heart these sweet words in the dead of the night. I tossed and turned as I began to listen to my heart, comforting and propping and lifting me higher than I thought I could ever climb. Everything else is history after this amazing encounter of wrestling with these incredible words and lines in my heart. Waking up the following morning was nothing but a formality as I began to smooth all the way to my last verse. Yes, yes... She's My Baby and She's All I Got ! Reflections, realignment, retracing and recollections of the life spectacled usually incognito to the

IN PURSUIT OF A DREAM!

In Pursuit Of A Dream!   Life is great and life is hard! Life is cruel and life is not fair! These are some of the most common overtones heard daily from Space. If the Almighty were to afford you a rare chance to sit on top of the Globe for one day: you like God, will hear these conjectures coming from the corridors of life below.   We live in the noisiest and the most congested Planet as humans. If God had offered a choice to parents in which Planet, they’d wish to have their babies born. Our population would not have risen to Eight Billion Souls as it were.   There are thousands of adverbs used to describe the very life we’re all part of. Life is subject to individual’s interpretation the same had gone through this twisting and endless labyrinth of Human Race and Pilgrimage to nowhere .   Once upon a time. In the busiest day for parents and their kids, who had excelled after their twelve yearlong school of education and gained their deserved university entrance pass.  Thi

SO, YOU THINK YOU HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD?

COMMENTS ... Sometimes, to think that I'm in charge of what I write, where and when I like: is just a wish.  Yesterday I wrote a complete Soweto June 16th Uprisings Tribute.. two hours later, I've had to delete the whole thing. Why? Because l had no witness of the Spirit in my heart.  Well, that's just me! God gave me all these Thoughts and Words to play with the rest of my life. I have gazillion words to play around with.  This narrative came over me early this morning. I felt like God was reminding me of the Covenant between Him and Jesus.  Kenneth Copeland and all the false teachers dance around their mega churches and brag about the Covenant they never had.  I'm always left speechless whenever I see thousands run behind false teachers and false prophets as if they cannot read the Bible for themselves.  I follow Jesus in His Word and nobody else. I am the addict of the Doctrine of Christ!  Nothing fascinates and moves my heart and soul like the anointed Word of God!
