It takes peace  
To close the weary eyes of the body,  
To quiet the restless whispers of the soul,  
To cradle the spirit in gentle stillness.  

It takes peace  
To unburden the bookshelves of a crowded mind,  
To lighten the weight pressing on the spirit.  

It takes peace  
To quicken the stride in life's unending race,  
To rise above the struggles that bind,  
To embrace each moment, truly alive.  

The Prince of Peace,  
The Word of God made flesh,  
Is the wellspring of all tranquility—  
He is peace himself,  
And so much more.
Have you thought of it?  
Have you wondered about it?  
Pondered over it,  
Rummaged through its depths?  

See.  
Look.  
Observe.  
Understand.  

We will stand before our Creator—  
God.  
Our lives laid bare before Him.  
He sees.  
He looks.  
He observes.  

Are you worthy of life?  
Or doomed to death?  

Eternal life is real.  
Eternal death is real.  
This is no longer a joke.  
The weight of reality presses down:  
We have a Maker,  
And He will judge.  

The last days are upon us.  
Blessed are those  
Who remain faithful to the end.
It's troubling how many live their lives with no second thought. The world lives anyhow neglecting the fact a time cometh when God shall judge. It is destined for man to live once then judgment. Your life on earth determines where you will spend eternity.
I know of A Name
A Name

Powerful yet glorious
Captivating yet Intriguing

A name exalted above all names
The Name

At the utterance of His Name
Animate, inanimate confess
He is Lord.

I know of a Name
A Name
THE NAME OF JESUS
Let's feel the breath
Embrace the air

Live in the moment
With no cares

Cast your cares on Him
They that know Him
Knows Him

Work
But no toil

He gives His own rest
He blesses the work of their hands.
Earth was spoken into existence,  
Worlds unfolded at the Maker's call.  
Creatures rose in vibrant persistence,  
As life surrendered, embracing it all.  

But we, the crown of creation’s art,  
Were shaped by hands, not words alone.  
Imprinted with the Maker’s heart,  
Breathed to life from dust.  

This whispers secrets of who we are,  
Crafted with care, uniquely designed.  
A tapestry woven of spirit,soul and body.
Echoing the Maker’s eternal mind.
We Humans are fearfully and wonderfully made. Other creatures were spoken to existence but we were made by the hands of God and then breathedto life.

Ticking,
Ticks,
Tick goes the time—
A rhythm unbroken,
A beat beyond our grasp.

No space to dissipate,
No void in time.
It marches forward,
Unyielding,
Untouched by our pleas.

Time is ever-present,
Yet never ours.
It slips through fingers
Like sand in an open palm,
A constant that we cannot own.

Those who know
Feel the pulse of the clock.
They understand the watch—
It beats for those who seize it,
For those who rise to its challenge.

Do you hear it?
The whisper of moments
Passing unclaimed?

Rise.
Face the ticking drum.
It's time.
Whatever you aspire or dream of, now is the time. Seize the moment and take that step though scary and uncertain, start now. Now is the time.

Across the seas, I chased my dreams,
In foreign lands, or so it seems.
Through endless books and lessons new,
My heart stayed home, forever true.

The campus life, a world away,
Could never dim the love that stays.
I held to memories, clear and bright,
Of family warmth and Christmas light.

Now stepping back on cherished ground,
Home’s joy and comfort wrap me round.
With laughter, tears, and stories to share,
I find my heart’s true solace there.
The joy of coming home after being away for too long
