To humble oneself is beautiful
Because when your humble things become more clearer
You can hear the voice that has been trying to talk to you for a long time
Things begin to fall in place
Blessings begin to run over and you don't have room enough to store them
All the things you desire in your life become yours
Because when you humble yourself you become a servant willing to serve
And when you serve you heaven and earth will move on your behalf
I’ve found someone
Someone who listens
Someone who wipes my tears away
Someone who turns my midnight’s into days
Someone who holds me tighter than life
Someone who hugs me and let me know everything is going to be alright
Someone I can lean on
Someone who is understanding
Someone who is kind and gentle and never says a harsh word
Someone who accepts me for me
Someone who through it all loves me unconditionally
Daddy
I call out to you
But there is no answer
Is anyone home?
Does anyone hear my call?
Daddy
I need you
Where are you?
Can’t you hear me calling you?
Daddy?
Daddy?
You’re the only one that will understand
Daddy
Where are you?
I need you…
Your loving arms around me
I feel so safe and secure
All the chaos in the world cease to exist for just a moment
A moment that can last for eternity
An eternity I would enjoy being in your arms
You have a very understanding ear
And I love that about you
I can cast all my care upon you
And you will always listen
You will always be understanding
You have never failed me yet and I know you never will
Because you will always be understanding
Do you ever know what I’m hiding in my mind?
See I never let on that there is turmoil there
I let you see and hear that everything is okay
But see its not...
I’m torn up inside
And words can not express the pain I bear
Mere words can not describe what I feel inside
And all you do is add onto my agony with your looks and unkind words
When will you understand that appearances can be deceiving?
If I be lifted up...
I will draw all men unto me
If you let your light shine through you
I will draw all to me to be saved
Do not dim your light to the world
Allow your light to shine
Because when you lift me up...
Souls will be saved
Lives will be changed
Breakthroughs will happen
Deliverance will happen
Yolks will be destroyed
Miracles will follow you...
And you will be a wonder to the world
A peculiar wonder they will not understand
But the light within you...
Will draw all men to me!
If God said it...
It shall come to pass
If God said it...
He will do it
If God said it...
It will change
If God said it
You will be delivered
If God said it...
I fell in love with someone
I admired her beauty and grace
I looked at her and said when I grow up I want to be like her
I wanted to be a strong black woman
I wanted to succeed and accomplish things in my life the waay she did in her life
Then one day my life shattered
I felt that I wasn't good enough for her anymore
It hurt the first time
It cut like a knife
The second time I was crushed
By the third time
It happened
She broke my heart
She never knew what she did
My dreams were shattered in one minute
Since...
I've never been the same
She was things to me no one else was in my life
I loved her with my whole heart
So see when she changed just like the rest
It messed with my mind
It broke my heart
It left a scar
I see her now and I remember how I loved her
What she meant to me
How she was a mother to me when no one else was
And then how certain change of events took place...she broke my heart
I would never be the same again
I don't think she really realized what she meant to me in my heart and in my life
Things will never be the same
Because I'm...
She just may never know what she meant to me and then just became like everyone else in my life...
I dry my tears
I keep on going in hopes that one day
One day...
One day....
Do you have determination in your life?
Well do you even know what it means to have determination?
Determination can be any spectrum of life
Physical
Mental
Emotional
Spiritual
Educational
Career oriented
I mean its a lot of things that call for determination
Now that you've thought about it do you have determination?
Well when you figure it out...know you need Godly determination in everything you do
What is love at first sight?
Is it when your heart goes pitter patter?
Is it when you get butterflies in your stomach?
Is it when you get that silly grin on your face?
Is it when you, well you know...
Is it when you know your in love?
Well, love at first sight sometimes is the most beautiful thing
So. tell me what is love at first sight?
Making love is the most beautiful thing two people can do
Two people come together in the ultimate act of being one
Its when two soft bodies are pressed against each other making the most magnificient thing....love
A man of valor
Is an upright man
A man of love...
Compassion
A man with a heart of gold
A man who cares about those around him
A man that is honest with himself...
The lack of concern
I really do not think I've been surrounded around such
I mean think about...
How would you feel if you were surrounded by a group of people who don't care about anyone but them
I mean get with it..
Unsettled things
Sometimes its hard to function in life when you have unsettled things in your life
I have things sometimes that resurface
And what it does the pain is as if it just happened
What I've learned is that you need to lean on the one that will take care of anything
So now when they come up I try to take them to HIM that knows my every need and desire
So, I can actually say I have a few unsettled things in my life
A few that will become nothing
I know a man
He was a wonderful man
He cared for everyone he knew
He was a wonderful husband
A wonderful father
And of course a wonderful cook
Well his life has come to an end
But no one will forget
His wit
His smile
His sense of humor
His love for life
His love for fishing
His love for animals
His love for people
He will be missed greatly
He was a great man
I will never forget this man that touched my life dearly
I feel lonely sometimes
I call on you
And you come quickly to my side
I greatly appreciate that
'Cause others have forsaken me
Betrayed me
Broke my heart
But you've always been a friend that sticks closer than a brother
I declare this day I am very grateful for your unconditional love through it all
I long to feel you near
I feel uncomplete when your not here
I miss your sweet voice
Your tenderness
Your warm embrace
I miss the way you comfort me and tell me everything is going to be alright
I miss the way you hold me when I cry
I miss your loving kindness
And I long to feel that again
Why do you forsake me?
I call out to you
And you never answer
I know that you are there because I can sense your presence
So why do you not answer?
I cry in hopes you will hear and comfort me
But you never come
Well that's what I think
So tell me why do you forsake me when I need you the most
When no one cares
I know you do
When no one else understands
I know you do
So why now do you forsake me?
What have I done that you would not answer me when I call?
Or maybe...
Just maybe....
On the third day he rose with all power in his hands
But see before he could be raised from the dead...
There had to be a prophetic word
Then the word had to become flesh
Then he had to be born and fulfill the word that was written
And while doing this he taught, performed miracles, and all sorts of things
People talked about him
They made fun of him
All these things lead up to the serious of events between the Last Supper adn the ultimate betryal
The betrayal that lead to his crucifixation
His crucifixation that lead to our salvation
The salvation we have because he lived, he died, he rose
And he did it all for us!
What does City year mean to you?
A diverse group of 17-24 year olds giving back 10 months of service to their community
A group of people building democracy through national service
A group of people positively impacting the lives of children they tutor and mentor everyday
I mean really think about it
How 'bout this one...ask someone in City Year what City Year means to them...
Did you ask?
Now tell me what City Year means to you...
Unspeakable joy
That is the experience that everyone desires
A desire they long for most of their life
That they hope to get one day
To feel what others feel
Then one day the joy comes
And when it does, you can't find words to describe it
Challenge
Life has several challenges
Out of all the challenges...will you give up and out?
Or will you take the challenge by the hand and go for it?
Don't allow the challenge to consume you...
You consume it first
Peace is what we all want
We want peace in our lives
Peace in our family
Peace on our job
Peace of mind
But do you know how to actually maintain that peace?
Well I do...
Keep your mind on Jesus and he will keep you in perfect peace
That's your sure bet to having peace throughout your life
Wonderful is the Lord
Wonderful is his mercy
Wonderful is his love
Wonderful is understanding
Wonderful is his peace
Wonderful is your name
The Lord just keeps on blessing me
See you don't understand
He woke me up this morning
He put breathe in my body
He clothed me in my right mind
He gave me mobility of my limbs
He just allowed me another chance to give him all the honor and the glory
And when you decide to acknowledge him...
You will understand what I mean when I say the Lord keeps on blessing me.
Faith
Do you have faith?
In what do you have faith in?
Is it something that will build you up or tear you down?
Because faith is something strong in the eye of the beholder
Think about it...FAITH
Unconditional love
Do you really know how unconditional love feels?
See there's only one true unconditional love I know about...
And its from God
Cause see no matter what he loves you by and by
How about that for an unconditional love?
Who can you trust?
Can you trust man with your inner most feelings?
Are you sure five minutes later they won't go and tell the world?
I know of someone you can trust?
Someone that through it all knows all and will never tell anyone
And his name is Jesus
'Cause see inspite of it all he still loves you and cares for you...so much he will never tell a living soul something about you that will not benefit your growth in him
So, I ask you again who can you trust?
Man or Jesus?
Think about...
