His Love Is All Around

In the coolness of the breeze,

The swaying of the trees,

When children whisper to me,

The breath of God I feel.

The comfort of warm conversation,

The rays of the sun. 

The hugs and smiles of loved ones,

The joy of heaven is reborn.

His peace is in the knowledge,

That His love is very real,

And even in the darkest night,

His word can wipe every tear.

So if you wake up feeling purposeless,

Or find that hope is gone,

Look all around and remind yourself;

Through you His love lives on.

Women's Day - Today and Everyday !

It takes painful courage for a woman to fight;
The crimes against her body & mind, her throne.
At the moment of her birth;
Is the expectation set -
The wealth of her husband;
She will beget,
She has no lasting home.

Rendered by her growing years self-conscious, uneasy..
By inescapable schemes of prowling men;
Shamelessly victimizing her immense potential.
Her image, her choices,
She struggles to defend.

Yet it takes the heart & hands of a woman;
To mould a house into a home.
She has the irrefutable power to conquer;
Those mighty storms all on her own.

Don't ever find yourself in wanting
Of a wounded woman's wrath.
In protecting and loving her while you can;
Is the core strength of being a man.

A woman adds a special substance;
She is a gifted, indispensable pearl.
Accept or deny, the fact remains;
The world relies on the future of a girl.
