Talitha cumi

Here I stand
so unclean and full of sin
my head hung with shame
There is a required sacrifice
to make me clean
to forgive my sins
to
to allow me to enter the Holy of holies
Yet I realize that anything I can offer
fall so short
of the set standard

I hear a voice calling my name
Talitha cumi
Come my child, come with Me
with tears streaming down my face
I dare ask, "But Lord....."
How
How can I enter Your holy place
in this filthy state I'm in?"

He then opened my eyes
and helped me to see
that the One who is calling me
is the Lamb sacrificed in my place
and gave me a clean, white pure robe of fine linen

Tears of joy stream down my face
as I accept this wonderful Gift of Grace
The Greatest Gift this world will ever know or receive


Have you answered to His calling your name
Talitha cumi, come I stand at the door and knock
Come my child, come with Me
Come and life





 Go and watch this  music video and worship God for His Great Gift

Friends

God gave each of us a great blessing

that have more value than anything money can buy

a friend to walk the road with us
some accompany us a short while
and others for a lifetime

to share with us
the goodness of the Lord

to encourage us in His work
and also to show us our sins and wrong decisions

to help us on the right path again

to wipe tears from our face

and to rejoice with us when good news abound

A sweet friend refreshes the soul

Lord, Thank you for blessing me

with sweet, godly, courageous friends

Help me to be the same friend to them as well

Thank you for Your friendship

- The greatest Friendship this world will ever know

Bzzzzt - World Malaria Day

Bzzzt bzzzt bzzzt

I'm the local mozzie leader of around here

we've been here for years and years

and have death is what plenty fear

some have believed that it was the tree

that caused the death or serious illness of 

their loved ones

if only they knew that it was the tree's residents

bzzzt bzzzt bzzzt

fast forward some years on

and the humans realized it was us

and not the tree green with fever,

they dosed themselves with muti

that left them feel queasy

but still there are others

not able to afford food let alone muti

bzzzt bzzzt bzzzt

others who live here with us

in quite beautiful parts of Africa with me

who can't even afford clothes or food

we don't distinguish who to bite

poor or rich, well fed or malnourished

pink, red, black, purple, yellow or white skin

all human blood to us taste the same

and bite we will, and sick you get

bzzzt bzzzt bzzzt

Rain

It's a terribly hot day
everyone and everything sweltering away
I feel a breeze blowing oh so softly
hearing a shot rumble somewhere
white flashes across a darkening sky
a drop of water
and happiness pulse through the flowers
the clean smell of new life
fill the air
together with a colourful ray of hope


(written October 2010)

Let us Remember

A cure for cancer found

Or perhaps some other dreaded disease

The solution for the world’s financial woes

Maybe this does not affect you

And it’s the sweet dear friend you never met

Or the great book written

Yet all of this and perhaps even more

Is not to be found on earth

Because a great evil prevailed on earth

People were living their normal lives

Yet their neighbour next door could not

They were killed one by one simply because

They were Jewish

or perhaps it was a Righteous Gentile who cared

and tried to do what they could to spare some

Millions were killed from this earth

In all horrible ways

What should we do today so many years on?

We could but remember

And keep alert of the evil around us

To perhaps prevent a new holocaust from occurring

In front of our very own eyes.
