IF I MAY... I MIGHT!

If I May... I Might!

If life was as smooth and sleeveless as far as my mind could stretch... everything would be achievable in a blink of an eye.

If seeing was as good as receiving without believing everything would not be farthest from possession.

While possession plays a bigger role in our demanding daily lives... everything is not everything in all things to keep our hearts beating.

If I may... I might!

It is heart-breaking to always see life necessities from unapproachable distance.

I can figure out what I want... But sometimes, what I want is just another distant star!

If I may... I might!

Struggling to barely survive... is one giant conundrum of our existence.

If my dream world was habitable... I would remain in my comatose state forever.

If I may... I might!

Strangely, things look more realistic in our dreams than what they really are.

Waking up from a serious dream is like watching your whole life washed away in a storm.

If I may... I might!

Imagine yourself gathering the pieces of your shattered life even before you hit the fiercest storm.

If misfortunes were predictable like the weather... I’d be the master of all voids today!

If I may... I might!

Sometimes, I feel like I am disturbing God... whenever I push and slide in my prayer bowl containing the same requests of yesteryear.

If I may... I might!

Something keeps on staring my heart and rebukes my mind not to quit believing.

Come before His Presence with fear and trembling... the Scriptures told me!

If I may... I might keep on keeping on!

Even though knock-kneed and dog-tired from the drag of walking through the desert for so long...

If I may... I might!

Every challenge becomes lighter whenever I call on God... to give me strength for this invisible load inside my heart.

If I may... I might!

God waves us goodnight through sunset... and watches over us through the stars while smiling at us through the moon... you’re going to be all right!

And reminds us, I told you so... through sunrise!

If I may... I might!

Every night I close my eyes to sleep, I know His Spirit is standing by to wake me up in the morning.

Like all mortals, I also have my days, where I tremble with tormenting fear!

But my heart...triumphs in hearing the vibration of the Spirit blowing all my fears away.

If I may... I might!

I remain standing because God is everything and all things I will ever need in this life.

If I may...I might!

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

If I may... I might!

The gift of life to live, to breathe, to walk and have my being... is the greatest of them all.

If I may... I might!

For me to live is Christ and to die is gain!

If I may... I might!

Silence is another solid form of Peace...

If I may... I might!

Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

I have yet to live for another thousand years in this life... to harness the Power of God unleashed through Peace.

Yes, go ahead and tell the world...

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

THROUGH HER EYES!

Reflections...  O for the Power of the Written Word! It only takes a single word or two to build a castle in the air. I cannot thank God enough for blessing me with endless words I can configure into any form at any time of the day.  In this Poetic Love Rendition, I leave it up to you, my reader, to make up your mind. What in God's world I'm on about. Enjoy!  If you've been reading my works for all this time without subscribing, you should be ashamed of yourself! If you feel my writings build you up and encourage you in life, what are you still doing?  Subscribing to my Blog and sharing it with your friends; is the greatest favour I will ever ask of you. I spend a great deal of time and sweat when writing these words of life, just for you. I'm not complaining my friend.  God bless you.  Through Her Eyes! The way she smiles and the way she walks, all designed to fascinate and mesmerize my cool. The way she talks and her royal looks which say, I am all the woman you
