Lighting Your Way

If i was one thing, I’d be a candle

Lighting the way so you can handle

Your life easier without woes

Not having to fight with your foes

I'd help keep you from stumbling over

Things blocking your path to an open door

If i light your path, life is easier

Even strong winds, my light will not deter

No matter what, I’m here for you

To cheer you up when you are blue

Do not fret when times get tough

If things look down or kind of rough

Just remember, I’m always here

In your heart, close and near

I will help you out in every way

Happiness and love in your heart will stay

Don't blow me out, that's one request

Unless it's me you do detest

I do not try to hurt anyone

That isn't good or any fun

But one day you may leave me behind

You may no longer need my light to shine

If that day comes, go on your way

And i will hope to see you again someday

If one day, i didn't appear

Do not worry, do not fear

I may be gone, but in your heart

The light i gave you did not depart

It will be there forever and a day

To always bring happiness and light your way

Farewell for now, I’m needed elsewhere

If your path grows dark, in your heart isn’t there

So I’m really not gone, just not seen

I would not leave, I’m not that mean

Only one simple request that i must say

Please, never forget those who light your way

The Candle

Someone give me a candle

That’s lighten up my burden to handle

No matter, how dark is the ground?

It leads your way unbound

Even how dark your path you follow

It gives you time to glow

Even the light is almost to decline

He wasn’t give up and leads you behind

Sometimes you ask to surrender

But the candle gives you an answer

That keeps you reminds your almost there

To gives you joy and until you bear

I told you that I always here

My heart is always close to you and care

To bring you joy and happiness so clear

Just a simple request, I make you my guest

Because you are my candle

You give me hope and lighten my life

Thanks for lessen the burden in me

You bring me joy and set me free

All I Want is You

You are my treasure

You are my strength

You are my inspiration

You are my light

In every step of my life i think of you

In everything i do, i offer it to you

In every minute passes by, I’m longing for you

In every day, wanting to be with you

How i wish to be at your side

How i wish to hug you tight

How i wish to hold you close to my heart

How i wish to kiss and whisper you good night

You are the gift from god

You are the happiness of my life

You are all that i have

You're all that i want

I maybe out of your sight

But you would never be out of my life

I maybe out of reach

But you would never be out of my heart

I would never forget you

I would never abandon you

I would never forsake you

I would never reject you

All i want is to be with you

All I want is to see you

All i want is to spend time with you

All i want is you

Sugar

Life is like having a cup of coffee.... You sit by the window, lift the cup and take a sip only to realize that somebody had forgotten to put sugar...

Too lazy to go for it, you somehow struggle through that sugarless taste 'till you realized undesolved sugar crystals at the bottom.

That's how life is.... We sometimes forget to make an effort to value what is around us....

Look around, maybe the sweetness your looking for is closer than you think.... Flash a SMILE HAVE A CUP OF COFFEE...

Foundation

If i buy a cookbook and memorize all that is in it, can i call myself a good cook? Obviously not. For whether i am a good cook or not does not depend on my memorizing the contents of a cookbook but on how i can declared delicious by somebody else.

A good house cannot be judge simply by its appearance but also by whether it can withstand the forces of nature like typhoons and earthwakes or whether it will be washed away by a flood. Thus the FOUNDATION is a very important part of the house.

In same manner, even if we memorize the Bible in its entirely, we may call ourselves someone with a gift of memorizing things, or perhaps someone might even call us Genious. But we cannot consider ourself a good Christians by the mere fact that we are familiar with the bible or have memorize it.

The proof of our faith will be truly seen in the works that we do. As paul says "i shall show you my faith by my works" (james 2:18). This is the FOUNDATION that will withstand. This is the FOUNDATION laid on rock. But a FOUNDATION that is built on rock implies hard work. The person who built sand sought the easy way to built a house. Easily built, easily destroy.

We need to dig deep into the ground to have a STRONG FOUNDATION and digging deeply implies hard work. Our faith is liken to that. If we live according to selected teaching only because we find such teaching to be easy, it will also be easy to distance ourselves from JEHOVAH GOD. But if through hard work, through patience and perseverance we strive to strengthen our faith, then we can withstand the storms that come and stand firm in our belief that JEHOVAH GOD is with us. This is where commitments to our faith comes in.

Doing what Jesus says is the STRONG FOUNDATION with which the tree of faith will spring forth, and from that tree will come abundance of PEACE.

PLEA

We’re in a world so busy

People running everywhere.

Forever looking at our watches

Our minds racing with cares.

We never see that lonely man

Sitting on the street.

We don’t even notice that hungry lady

Struggling in the heat.

Children so needy

Filled with despair.

An old grandma rocking sadly

And no one cares.

We must remember

Jesus left us with a plea…

“You did unto the least of these

my brother, you did it unto me.”

So what about you?

What about me?

What about the lonely man

Sitting on the street?

Will you reach out

Without a shadow of doubt?

Will you love the least of these

And fulfill Jesus’ plea?

A smile for the lonely man sitting on the street.

A bit of food for the hungry lady struggling in the heat.

A hug for the children so full of despair.

A cheery voice for the old Grandma in the rocking chair.

This seems so simple

Such an easy thing to do.

Let’s reach out for the least of these

And for Jesus too.

Allow Your Own Inner Light to Guide You

• There comes a time when you must stand alone
• You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dream
• You must be willing to make sacrifices
• You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved
• Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged
• There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities
• Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better
• Be confident enough that you won’t settle for a compromise just to get by
• Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop and find your true sense of purpose in this life
• Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way

Heart and Minds

The heart speaks better than mind

When it fall in-love they never mind

Because I feel that tender love is blind

Then times will come were bless and bind

You are true that you speak better than me

Because you can feel the instinct you may

You wasn’t see the presence of me

When your love fails you seek the advice from me

You wasn’t know true love is true

Because I feel it makes me blue

This is the time I want the conclusion from you

You keep me answer you didn't know

Your love is fake that makes you break

That keep you seek true love is great

Makes you say, time will come I found the one

The heartaches of yours I have the answer key

When you fall in-love, you have to think twice

That no back tracks to keeps you realize

That heart and minds will give you prize

 A true love ends won’t give you sacrifice
