I Heard It Said..

So I heard it said, that You died to save me but I'm a lil bit sceptical cuz You don't even know me,
Then I heard it said that from before I was in the womb You ordained me,
Bruv I swear You're mad, cuz there's no way a mess like that could be ordained by a deity like You,
I then heard it said that it was pre-destined,
You pre-destine mess?
Now I know You're taking the mick...
Now I know that this thing You gave me called life is just one big J-O-K-E joke!
The fact can't be overlooked that You gave life to me though,
So what's its purpose?
To be messed up?
You use mess?
You love mess?
Oh no, I heard it said that You just love cleaning it up,
You'll wash me in Your blood?
Aha!
This is a joke!
A big fat stinkin' joke!
Cuz how can blood cleanse me?
That thing stains like crazy,
Especially on white fabric G-
But if that's the case,
O-D me with that then,
G-O-D,
Cuz I heard it said it has power,
Power to cleanse heal and save,
Fam, I'm sorta intrigued to know how You're gonna do that still...
Cuz things that stain,
Well You know,
Only have the power to stain!
So what You gon' do then G?
But what I really wanna know is WHY?!
What do You have to gain from cleaning up a mess like me?
Cuz see I'm still a lil bit sceptical,
Everyone and they grandma in this world has an ulterior motive for doing things for free...
So what's Yours G?
Them people, (dem can chat yu si)
They told me that all You require is for me to love You,
Back,
G, You confuse me,
But imma try and get it straight,
This is the deal:
You'll clean me, I testify that You can,
You'll feed me, clothe me, provide for me, guide me, teach, strengthen and comfort me,
And ALL I do for You is love You back G?!
Naaaaah man!
That sounds a lil but dodgy,
Wouldn't You agree?
Maybe I still wanna know why,
How could you love a mess like me?
There must be something more You want from me,
Have You met this world G?
I'm telling You, NOBODY does anything for free,
But I'm wasting breath telling You something You already know,
And wasting time tryna fight off what's probably already mine,
But I still don't get it G,
All I have to do is love Thee?
I heard it said that You first, loved me...

Keep Calm: God Is Able

Worried?

Stressed?

Disappointed?

Lonely? or even alone?

Dismayed?

Upset?

Addicted?

........................ One word, one mention of His name, 

The name at which demons tremble at,

The Name above all names, 

Just His name, 

One preacher says: He needs no introduction, He is God all by Himself, 

He doesn't need you to take control of the situation, 

He's perfectly capable of that, 

He needs you to Keep Calm, 

He needs you to fling yourself into the trust that He is able, 

Able to do exceedingly and abundantly!

He needs you to have the peace that surpasses ALL understanding, 

He wants to give you the favour that makes no sense, 

The joy unexplainable, 

He wants you to hook up with His Holy Spirit, 

Breathe Him like you need Him like you an oxygen mask, 

Like you're hooked to an IV machine, 

Connected like WIFI, you can't see Him but the connections visible, 

And strong, 

He wants you to be anxious for nothing, 

He is the same God who was able to part the Red Sea, 

The same God that led His people by pillar of cloud and pillar of fire, 

What is too hard for Him?

Has His arm been shortened? 

He wants you to trust in Him with ALL your might, 

He wants you to Keep Calm for He is able

Amazing Grace

Amazing was the grace that caught me when it did, 
Amazing was the grace that looked beyond my faults to see my needs, 
To see the need that my soul needed saving, 
Amazing was the grace that saved my soul, 
Amazing was the grace that kept me till I answered the call, 
Amazing is the grace that warms my soul,
Amazing is the grace that graces me with His magnificent presence, 
Amazing is the grace that lets me see the enemy for who he is, 
The enemy that is mad with me for not staying on his side, 
An enemy that can't get me back to wallow in sin, 
An enemy that continues to tempt in all manner of sin, 
But,
Amazing, 
Grace, 
Still flows from His side, 
The same amazing grace that sent His Son to die, 
Why?
That I'll never know, never be able to answer, 
Let's just call it AMAZING GRACE, 
Can't label or describe or define, 
Can't categorize or confine, 
One preacher said: you can thank Him for your car, house and fiiiiiine husband, 
But I will alwyas thank Him for the amazing grace, 
The amazing grace, 
Amazing grace, 
The amazing grace guides, protects and perfects, 
Amazing grace, 
Oh my Lord, amazing grace, 
This isn't for everyone to understand, 
See you have to go through some stuff to KNOW He's amazing, 
To know the grace is amazing, 
To know the mercy and favour that will follow, 
I know some might understand, 
And before this gets too long, 
I just have to say: IT WAS AMAZING GRACE! 

Just Imagine

Can u imagine if the sky was purple? Or red? Or if the grass was blue? Or orange? See God knows exactly what He's doing, not only did He orchestrate the world into being, but He also told who to be what colour. His vast imagination chose colours of rocks, which seemingly has no colour. He said to earth: be and it was. A Man of great detail who imparted a bit of it to Noah, a Man of creativity, who specified to Moses how His temple should look. One word; beautiful. And that's who He is, the I Am That I Am, who is simply just everything!

Today

Sometimes you have to go away to see God in a different light,
Today, He took me into the countryside,
And TODAY,
I'm giving thanks for sight today,
A drive in to the countryside made me appreciate the gift of sight,
Made me appreciate how much God takes care of us WITH His earth,
Showing me His sky,
Which is where I got my favourite colour,
The sun is out, it's heat pelting down,
You'd never know it through the trees that provide a perfect shade,
I saw hills that beckoned, nearly teased me to climb them just to see what's on the other side,
I saw, from hills, streams of water that just trickled delicately down,
Singing a soft tune,
Trickling down melodies,
Showing off their Daddy, their Maker,
I saw cows that provoked memories of a simpler time in my life,
He knows I love to see running water or large bodies of still water and today He showed me them in abundance,
Reminding ME of my Maker,
I saw baby sheep feeding in the fields reminding me that He is my Shepherd,
I shall not want,
And how He provides food for them to eat,
How much more so He will do for me,
I saw hills that looked nearly impossible to climb and reminded me that I can do all things through Him,
Those same hills, mountains even, went up to glorious peaks,
Showing off His creativity
The simplicity of breathing,
The creativity of His 'man'
How He provides ALL we need to thrive...
All in all reminding me that He is....

#LastSunday

Say what you mean,
Mean what you say,
Don't let it leave your mouth if you're not willing to do it,
Rebuke it from your thoughts if you know you can't handle it,
Believe life and death is in the power of your tongue,
So if you say it.....
I don't need to spoon feed you,
You should know what time it is,
It's time to start owning up to your thoughts,
Cuz they soon become your words then actions,
It's time to stop making empty promises,
It's time to stop making promises you have no intentions to fulfill,
That, friends, is what we call a lie,
It's that time to start owning up to what you think,
Because, again, thoughts become words become actions,
It's time for a heart check,
1, 2, check,
Stop thinking what you don't mean,
Then it won't be so hard to say what you mean,
Even then even easier to mean what you say

#YOLO

You only live once I heard them say,
I can do whatever I want in this life,
I only live once,
I can treat His temple the way I please,
I only live once,
In this life there's only one shot,
Y.O.L.O.
There's no resits, no do-overs, no re-takes,
#YouOnlyLiveOnce,
So here's your options:
Live right or live wrong,
You only live once so are you going up or down?
You only live once so do you want to burn in hell or reign with Him with a crown?
You only live once,
You only have one chance to get it right,
You only live once,
There's only one chance to end up high and holy,
You only live once,
There's only one chance to follow Him solely,
You only live once,
I think I've said that enough,
But you only live once
So go, take a shot.
"you gon' live forever whether you want to or not,
Some of us gon' end up holy, some of us gon' end up hot" - Lecrae
