The Christian Walk

So there was me walking

In a beautiful mountain range

But on a very narrow* path in a cliff

A step to the one side

And I’ll be stuck in religious legalism

And a step to the other side

And I’m falling deeper down into sin

Only by the Grace of God

Do I make it to not slip into either false way

He gave us hinds feet**

And friends to pray for us, correct us

And most of all encourage us on the way

To the beautiful place where He

Will meet us and reveal His glory.

*Matthew 7:14
**Habakkuk 3:19

Prayer and life of a Muslim background Believer

Walking down the street
The valley of the shadow of death
My Hope can only be in Him alone
I have a small frumbled piece of paper
That might cost me my life
For it contains His Word of Life

Just yesterday I heard the news
My friend was so badly bruised
'cause she might have been at
the reading of our Father's Will

My family and friends have thrown me out
To them I am but a filthy pig
but  in Him, I have a new family without a doubt
They might view me as an oxygen-thief
But don't they realise that it is my GOD
Who gave freely to us all the oxygen??

In the words of Paul
For me to live is Christ
and to die; is definite gain

Previously I had to wear a veil
For reasons religious and cultural
Now I do it just to respect their culture
But HIS LIGHT shines right through it all

Now it's time for them to pray
Everyone on their knees facing east
Whilst I can just where I am talk silently to HIM
For He is everywhere all the time
Protecting me from the lions
But when they do kill me I'll be with Him forever and ever

Silently  I cry a prayer
For wisdom, protection and most of all
For their eyes to be opened
Father may they see that
They are actually persecuting You, their Saviour

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake
For theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.

Castles in the sky

Castles in the sky

I wish you would smack me in the face
or tell me to wake up and smell the coffee laced
I built a castle in the sky
with foundations on clouds so high

Yes, it was a dream
but it in my dream it was as real
as sunkissed beaches smelling of sunscreen
a thought, how it could be, how I feel

Now the castle came tumbling down
My face had to hid more than a frown
when the news broke to me
that the dream is no longer to be

I wish you would smack me in the face

Love is a strange strange thing

Love is a strange strange thing


Love is a strange strange thing
I can feel a lot about you
and it be the wrongest deed
and when it be so right
not feel a thing except that
my heart tell me: This is right

Some days I can be in the clouds
and the next want to run away
and yet chose to stay on earth
here with you. Be with you

love is a strange strange thing <3

The Road Less Traveled - Robert Frost

The Road less Traveled - Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood

and sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveller, long I stood

and looked down one as far as I could

to where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,

and having perhaps the better claim

because it was grassy and wanted wear

;though as for that, the passing there

had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay

in leaves no feet had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood,

and I --I took the one less travelled by,

and that has made all the difference

Healing Pain

Pushed aside like I'm rubbish

I supposedly don't make your high standards

you so subtly tried to show your fake love to us

with money and selfish stories of yourself

but you never knew us for who we are

we were just not good enough

now that you are gone 

we are trying to get up out the mud

cleaning ourselves and getting rid of the abscess

forgiving you didn't take away what you did

and yes it still hurts

but it allows me to freely live

to be myself

to be who I am, Who I was created to be

not who you wanted me to be

it'll take time to heal to hurt

The Moon

So many nights I sit and watch the moon

How amazing that so far away it’s shining so bright

But on closer inspection,

It’s…...... just a rock

No light shining out of it

It merely reflects the sun

Don't you think that maybe 

Our Creator is telling us something here

We also are merely rocks

Far from perfect and sinless

But we do reflect the Son’s glory

To a very dark world out there
