VISION

The other day I was watching my baby cousin as she walked around the house. One thing she did was fall. She looked around to see what was there to grab on. Another thing I noticed is every time she falls I ran to her to make sure she was ok. My mind didn't process this till a day later. But have you noticed as a christian we fall.

We look around for someone or something to help us get back on our feet. We never realize that God is sitting there waiting for us to ask for his help. We look around and find ourselves alone and decided to give up. Turn our back on God. When we just really need to just have faith that we can get up on our own.

When I ran to her side I run just like God does to us. Haven't you noticed God comes and pulls you up when you can't seem to understand why you fell. Dusting you off and saying go ahead.

The last thing I noticed is how when I feed her she didn't eat everything. God feeds us but we sometimes refuse to eat Because we believe its not good for us. In all it is one of the best things for us to get a message from God. We tend to throw up the word or scripture that call prevent us from doing wrong.

In all God just wants us to understand that the fall isn't the bad part. It the fact we tend to stay down longer than needed. We tend to not realize that he runs to our side to protect us and cover us. He feeds us so we don't make mistakes that are preventable.

So I pray this. May God show you the road. May God cover your dreams. Cover your walk. May he send out warrior angels to fight the things that block your path. Enlarge your growth by far and near. In Jesus name, Amen!

WHAT IS LOVE?

In Love you do over and beyond!
you give your mind, body, spirit!
you turn the other cheek;
you hold your feeling for others,
behind the door.
With love,
you become different,
you turn totally upside down.
Loving the game,
you smile,
you frown.
If love existed,
could you turn a key
and find it?
Could you flip a rock
and it jumps on you?
I realized that first fact of love
is the fact you give them attention.
My puppy, Lady,
I loved her!
Gave her more attention than i did my work.
she had my heart!
she is gone now!
Like the breeze of wind
traveling to another persons lungs
breathing in and out.
Is love like the sun
coming up and down,
blocked by others,
covered by tears from the sky?
What is love?
What is our love?
Unconditional like God
or favorable by the time and week.
What is LOVE?

Goodbye 2009

With this being my last day in the Atl I am about to go in on this POEM OF THIS SEMESTER/YEAR, HOPE YOU LIKE.

The year started with Love and Sex in the air.
giving the new president a two thumbs up
knowing that my future was to be with you
i started my journey to that point
you took my hand and we went together.
like children we played
we shared stories
we experimented
only to find ourselves alone again
on two different sides of the road
the car breaking down
not letting us go any further.
i jumped out
you walked away
i caught the bus
you went on to the future
i stayed picking up pieces.
The year continued and i went from bed to bed
trying to fit a certain piece into my broken heart
nothing able to fit i continued and continued
until God filled that spot yet again.
i spent the summer finding myself
money less and friend less
trying to find food
like the homeless on Martin Luther King Jr Blvd
asking the same people day in day out
for just a little
and the person who i least expected stepped in.
i went into my passion
asking God to guide me
I was uplifted
and took things over
all through God
the twinkle in my eye from God
my work is present today
I began a journey that baggage had to be let go
dropped in the side trash
not able to take with me
i began a transformation
like a autobot i did it all
now God has settled me in this place i call love
comfort, passion, intense listening
and i bow my head
i give my all and say thank you
God is all he has
protected me
he has loved me
he has put people in and took people away.
for my Great Grandma, i love you and miss you
coming home this year
i will miss you so much
as the tear falls
Great Grandma i love you and hope i all i see you soon.
Love is a hard thing to handle
live your life up
and live to the best
As i say goodbye to 2009
2010 seems to be the year i give my all and take nothing back

To friends and Family that may read this.... Thank You for standing by me.... I love you and this is my goodbye to 2009.

Ice Fall

With all these feelings
with all these heartaches
i see you
standing in the rain
asking how do you stay dry?
how do you wait for me?
how do you love someone like me?
I ask the familiar question
can you stand the rain?
i dance on by and say things to get you touch
is it you i am to love
or is it the passing by
as the car drives by
i look in the rearview
remembering that it is past
not heading to the future
are you my all
are you the break of the ice
being my comfort
being my warmth
being my conversation keeper
what are you to be me
this is the ice fall
from my heart!
