God’s Unending Mercy

 “For He knoweth our frame, He remembereth that we are dust.”

I have fallen in love with God’s Grace; all of His other benefits are a beautiful plus!

I stand on every promise, knowing He’s true to His Word. 

He will NEVER fail me! I patiently wait on Him, knowing my hope is never deferred!

He comforts me when I’m worried, letting me know everything will be okay.

He forgives me when I fail Him, though I may fail Him each and every day. 

He is not slack concerning His promise! He desires that my soul not be lost.

He paid the price for us all, when He hung His head on the cross. 

He allows me to come boldly and cast my every care upon Him.

He lifts every heavy load with ease, causing my heart to sing forth beautiful hymns.

He is more gracious to me than my fellow man!

He picks me up when I fall, He rescues me from the sinking sands.

He asks me speak to myself, and say that "I am strong." when I feel weak.

He renews His mercies for me every morning! He protects me throughout the week.

He is my God, my King, my Comforter, and my dearest Friend. 

He forever reminds me that He's here, and He'll continue guiding me even until the end!

The Awakening

Damaged on 01/‘25, yet so many questions were unanswered until 01/‘26.

My body, though traumatically broken, still harbors a will that doesn’t know how to quit.

I spoke to the one who rescued me. He was excited and happy to hear me doing so well again!

God’s grace (shown by the adrenaline rushing through him that night) allowed me to be pulled from my car before the flames began again.

I lay there on the cold ground, still, and wrapped like a baby boy.

He checked my pulse and breathing; though weak, his heart leaped for joy! 

“Man, we are connected by Spirit!… I’ll never forget your name!”

After an hour of listening to him recall the events of that fateful night, Mr. Mark, for me the sentiment is the same! 

Educated, well-versed, always optimistic, and seldom blue. 

Yet, as I was unbearably naive, I was overtaxed and overworked, yes, more than I knew! 

But now my eyes are beginning to open, and wisdom guides me in every decision. 

Discernment and discretion preserve me, they help me see through the manipulation!

So, as a son of God I walk tall, my life secured in His hands!

Just as that collision didn’t stop me! Doubt and worry doesn’t stand a chance! 

My future is still bright; and the healing process still continues!

For now, I know to rest in God’s love, embraced by His virtues!

                    

My Promise

On this day I stand before God, our friends, and family. Proclaiming that this love will echo, and be remembered throughout eternity. 

I vow to not only love you, but to support you in all that you do. I vow to be the husband, who always comes through for you. 

I vow to be a friend, who patiently assists you in all of life’s trials. I'll give my best, so that life, for you, will always feel worthwhile. 

I vow to be there to understand you, so that no one may tear us apart. I vow to lead you with grace and patience, so that you’ll never regret giving me your heart. 

I vow to guide us with discretion, and all of the wisdom that my father imparted unto me. I vow to have a faithful heart, yes all of your secrets will be safe with me. 

I will be there through life’s storms, until the skies are peaceful once again! We'll walk together with our lives secured, safe in the Master’s hands. 

My love I love you, know that I always will. Today I take pride in life knowing, that this love was always a part of God’s will.

Meeting You Was Serendipitous!

God didn’t place me here to chase fantasies.
But while allowing me to reach my fullest potential and find my destiny, He gave me you to help bring out the best in me.
He gave me you, because on my own I could not see, that He never intended for me to remain in the valleys.
May, for the rest of our lives, I never have to give you an apology.
For I saw everything beautiful within you before I even asked you to marry me.
Holding you in my arms only brings me serenity.
Thank you, my love, for all you do to keep our home filled with tranquility.

From Segree, With Love!

We met in December, a cold winter's night.
She was beautiful, poised, all dressed in white.
Our introduction was simple, yet cute, few words were said,
Though others asked questions, she focused on me instead.

We had "mini conversations", and yet time always flew

Sharing our many similarities- of what life put us through.

It was later that week, that we made a vow to "break free"

We decided to begin a new chapter, focused on pursuing peace.

She witnessed my struggle

Balancing studies, my career, and duties in ministry

She was my cheerleader, and my life coach

Giving gentle reminders not to push the limits of my humanity.

It wasn't just the late calls, to make sure that I was okay.

It was the genuine concern for my well-being

That I could see, she would be "mine" one day!

But it was a life changing decision,

one that I knew could not be hastened.

So I took the matter to God

And twice by dream, came my father to give confirmation.

"Hypotheticals" became reality, as my fathers words were brought to life.

For in every conversation, even our disagreements never led to strife.

God designed it to be so, for our love story was in his plan

My father always gave me life advice, as if I was already a married man.

"Be the priest of your home, and always protect your family"

"Love her the same way that Christ has loved thee"

"Praise your woman; but listen to her when she's upset or angry"

"Not every thing will be smooth, but working through it all will be easy"

Looking back now, our story began with all of those talks with my dad,

for I know that without a doubt, our love story would have made him glad!

He saw that he couldn't be here, so advice and wisdom he would always impart....

Now I understand his saying, He is still leading me from afar!

To my wife, to my bride I am so happy to be doing this life with you

Part two of this poem will be read before I say "I do"

Haiku (The Sun)

Faithfully it shines.

And though dark clouds screen it’s light

You know it’s “day”.
