The Blessedness of Seeing
A loved one in my family had to be rushed to see an eye doctor for fear that he might lose his vision. While chewing on the thought of blindness, the story of Jesus healing a blind man came to mind. With my Bible at hand, these are the words that ensued.

The Great Blessing
My attempts to reach out to a relative of mine with the love and blessing of knowing Christ began and ended here. It inspired my thoughts that came forth in these written words. To be truly blessed is to know love and to love another.

My Heaven
Faithful and consistent practice of the turning of the heart to God, and genuine seeking after Him produce the fruit of love. Heaven is where His love dwells. The great God of eternity makes His abode in finite humanity out of loving humility.

The Keys to Heaven
Love and forgiveness are the requirements for entry into God's paradise. Living out our dreams and finding the freedom of heart and mind to be truly alive is all a part of the sacred meaning we make. Let us be blessed and love freely!

To Be Human
The mark of true spirituality and crowning virtue of all is love. To be capable of loving and be recipients of the love of God is what defines a human soul. Time only graciously lengthens and deepens this gift, to the glory of God and the honour of Man.

The Blessedness of Possessing Nothing
The title of this poem is borrowed from A.W. Tozer's "The Pursuit of God," as is the theme of submission and surrender. The only right reason for doing so is for readers to discover upon reading through my piece of writing. God Bless. Soli Deo Gloria!

The Love of John
While listening to Scottish rock band, Runrig's "The Greatest Flame" I was so moved to imagine how the ministry of John of the Baptist and that of Jesus' dovetailed with one another in unspoken luminous beauty.

A Place Called Paradise
While musing over my beloved, I wrote the following romantic words for Him as an expression of deep love and honour for someone as loving, beautiful and unforgettable as He is. My greatest wish is only to be with Him forevermore in paradise.

A Child of God
A friend of mine was recently baptised into God’s loving family. My original intention was to pen these words in a general way for all children of God, but the poem took a life of its own and I soon found that my writing described him as God’s child.
