Through Prayer May We Recieve All That We Need

"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

"Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

I Remember

"Sorrento Moon (I Remember)"

I sang your praises daily
And we let ourselves get swept away
It's true baby
We held heaven in our hands for days
You wait a long time
For something wild to take you somewhere
And all I needed was to fly
It's a long way from paradise to ordinary
Picture us just smiling there, we didn't have a care

I remember, how it all came true
It was oh so tender
And I was lost with you
By the sweet sorrento moon

But the stars don't burn that brightly
Every season surely slips away
But you baby
You're the reason why I chose to stay
You wait a long time to find your dream and hold on to it
And all I needed was to fly
It's a long day from innocence to understanding
A picture of a child at play, is how I feel today

And I remember, how it all came true
It was oh so tender, and I was lost with you
By the sweet sorrento moon...
(la luna de sorrento)

Life For Rent

I haven't really ever found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought
But if my life is for rent and I don't lean to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone and live my life more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought
But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
Cos nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well how can I say I'm alive

If my life is for rent...

Temptation Visits

Temptation visited me yesterday

In the form of an unexpected message... him... It really caught me off guard. I had almost forgotten... almost.

Just when I thought I was in the clear it comes back around.

I am weak, But I don't want to be. The danger is when I start thinking... My mind plays a nasty game. My heart get caught up in the web.... So stupid. Stupid little girl...

But then I think of The Boy.

He's the voice in my head, the voice of reason. My conscience

Thank you.

I'll make you proud of me yet.

Reflections On Life

Lie awake
Decisions to make
Focus the mind
Answers to find
Too many thoughts
Ideas to sort
Memories sad
Times had
Friends lost
Count the cost
Conscious drifts
Sands shift
Days pass
Too fast
Time flies
Goodbyes
Eyes close
Life goes...


People often spend too much time focusing on what they dont like aout their lives, regretting past decisions, and longing for how life was before...
What they need to realise is that while they are making themselves unhappy life still goes on.
The truly sad thing is that by always looking back they miss all that is beautiful here and now and by the time they realise it it is too late to get that time back.

Those peope out there; I wrote you this poem for you.

The Innocence of a Child

Some people brought their babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them.
The disciples saw them and scolded them for doing so,

but Jesus called the childrn to Him and said,

"Let the children come to me and do not stop them,
because the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Remember this! Whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a child
will never enter it."

Luke 18.15-17
