Why should I forgive

How can I forgive

If it is not solicited

Nor humbly requested



Unforgiving spirit troubles the mind

Unforgiving spirit makes you blind

You cannot honestly say you are fine

If forgiveness in your heart you cannot find



If only you know

How it harms you

If only you know

How it builds up your sorrow



Bitterness eats up your sweetness

Bitterness steals your happiness

If you cannot offer an unsolicited forgiveness

Then you cannot claim God’s peace and promises of successes



Don’t say it’s impossible

For God made Himself as our great example

Unsolicited forgiveness He offered to us

Through His one and only Son Jesus



Unsolicited forgiveness is not asked

It is freely given by those who know God

O yes, It is a gift

To the shattered heart it’s ready to lift

FOULING THE SOUL

Oh swords of words
Piercing the thoughts
Striking for naught
Hating was taught

Oh hammer of insults
Pounding what hurts
Plucking the truth
Lying was caught

Oh paint of hypocrisy
Covering what's messy
Coloring the doom
Trying to groom

Oh cemented breath
Drying beneath
Stinking principle
Fouling the soul

Destined to be alone

But not to feel misfortune

Chosen to be single

But not forbidden to mingle



To be alone and not to be lonely is impossible

Specially to those who don’t know the Bible

For them it’s miserable

If you remain untouchable



Should you feel disgusted of this point view

Please no for that’s what they knew

Only the world’s knowledge to them was blew

But with God’s Holy Word their mindset will be new



Whether you are single or double

In your heart there is a hole

That nobody can fill but God alone

For He designed it to make it His home



So you wonder why there are people who seem to have everything

But in their hearts they feel something is missing

You see them smiling but deep inside they feel like dying

For marriage, riches, power, and fame cannot change what they are feeling



Some decided to jump to end their own lives

Reasons of death mostly suicides

For emptiness is felt in depths

Desperation creeps in to their hearts and minds



If they gave up I cannot blame

For truly the heart is insane

It needs the right medicine

Relationship with Jesus to them we need to share

There are people in every nation

Seeking for an answer of a certain question

A question that will change their destination

If it is answered with a correct explanation



In their minds creeps in a lot of confusion

For the world is giving them different solution

A solution that offers hallucination or delusion

That brings them to eternal condemnation



This is the work of the god of all lies

Deceiving people with all his alibies

Offering them good things to make them his allies

Yes, fooling God’s people he is so wise



Sad to know that many got enticed

For all his tactics was not recognized

Because to an angel’s face he disguised

His plan to victimize people was realized



This is a wakeup call to all of us

It’s time to declare to them the name of Jesus

The Word of God to them we need to discuss

The message of the gospel to them we need to pass



All Christians should be united to destroy the work of the enemy

It could only be done if we offer our lives sacrificially

The lies of Satan will be destroyed utterly

If the name of JESUS is spread to the world widely

To whom should I submit

If you don’t ask me to commit

How can I follow

If for you I am not a fellow

What should I obey

If I did not hear any

Why should I stick

If you seem like a *****



Your silence

Shuts down my competence

Your absence

Pushes away my presence

Your coldness

Melts down my warmness

Your judgment

Condemns my commitment



A wanderer I could be

For appropriateness I could not see

Maybe to be bound is not for me

Maybe the One up there is setting me free

Maybe I don’t really have to stay

If it’s the case I am okay

I know with Him I don’t have to worry

For I’m aware that only God knows the perfect way

Who could understand this confusing fellow
The rhythm she sings is truly hard to follow
Though there's a better and easy way
She chooses to strum a pattern without a tune or melody

You will never get it
Until you decide to follow her beat
Irritation is what you get
Until you stop and keep quiet

If you want to get the point
Just listen even if you don't like it
For you cannot get in to her mind
By figuring out what's hidden behind

Yes, the best thing you can do is to stop
Stop asking, just stop
Stop thinking, please stop
Stop saying "What's up!"

I started with nothing

But you’ve taught me everything

Now I feel like crying

For He wants to see me flying



I asked “Do I really have to?”

Then He said “Just go!”

I felt like I don’t want to

But He shook me to let go



My heart cried to stay

But the voice said “Fly away!”

“If you don’t like to miss the opportunity

Then follow Me willingly”



I felt like shaking

But He said “Stop fearing!”

“Just trust Me and start flying

I am here to rescue when you are falling”



So I have to say goodbye

In obedience I have to fly

He wants me to soar high

With the assurance that He is nigh



For God I will fly

For God I will try

Though it will make me cry

But to God I will rely

I have been young but now I’m old,

Life’s incomprehensiveness is manifold.

Circumstances in life is hard to unfold,

Obstacles and difficulties were already foretold.

To wait and to hope for the promises that has been told,

It’s faith of the unseen to you will uphold.



As you continue to tread the perplexing and rocky road,

To stumble and to fall you cannot avoid.

But those bruises you get will turn out to be good,

If after the fall you’re learning the lessons and treasure them like gold.

Just keep on trusting, keep seeking the Lord.

Offer a sacrifice of praise, so that the glory of God you will behold.



For it’s a sacrifice of praise that will change your attitude,

It’s a sacrifice of praise that will turn upside-down your heart’s mood.

So offer a sacrifice of praise to the Lord.

For our God, He is so good!

Offer a sacrifice of praise to the Lord.

So that the glory of God you will behold!

The sound of the bitter cries
Not without but within
Every tear that falls
It comes from a burning pain

The silent scream to be understood
This is what they long to be heard and behold
But instead of a merciful listening ear
It's a ravening mouth ready to tear

Is this what love had taught us
Is this what we've learned from JESUS
No, absolutely not!
For He came not for the righteous but for the lost

So cut off your pointing finger if you want to reach out
Pluck out your condemning eyes if you want to find the lost
Swallow your spit if you want to share your hope
And nail your feet on the cross if you want to spread God's love

You don’t stay in a pen

But you search for a pasture that’s green

You make sure that the water is clean

And the place is safe to lean

You always know what happen

And ready to mend the broken



The flocks won’t go ahead

If your voice is not heard

Your voice alone they take heed

They’re not easily deceived

For they already perceived

The voice to them you translated



Yes, you are the shepherd

It’s you who prepared

What the flocks needed

It’s you who provided

You always go ahead

Your flocks aren’t misguided



I wonder how you’re able to sustain

You didn’t say a word to complain

Though sometimes your flocks didn’t listen

You still carry them with your arms widely open

To you who did ordain

That forever you remain



How could they pay you back

When wolves came to attack

For the flocks you became a rock

The ravening teeth you did hack

Their evil plans you did pluck

Before you they became a laughing stock



This is what shepherding is all about

There’s no place to walkout

There’s no room to hideout

There’s no time to burnout

The Shepherd of all shepherds is searching you out

JESUS is coming to pull you out

You said you know God

But why are you sad

If you know Him you must be glad

For He is your powerful dad



To know Him means peace

To know Him means rest

To know Him means wellness

To know Him means goodbye loneliness



So why do you worry

Why do you feel sorry

And why are you lonely

Maybe you don’t really know Him personally



Or maybe you do

But you did not get what you want to

So you question if He really loves you

That’s why your heart is so blue



O my dearest friend

Maybe you need to think again

Maybe to yourself you remain

Though your sins were forgiven and forgotten



To be forgiven means you’ve been set free

To be free means surrendering your life fully

To surrender your life means to trust the Lord completely

And to trust the Lord means to enjoy His peace perfectly



So cheer up!

Look around what you have

You are blessed to have Jesus

You are blessed to have God

There are people in every nation

Seeking for an answer of a certain question

A question that will change their destination

If it is answered with a correct explanation



In their minds creeps in a lot of confusion

For the world is giving them different solution

A solution that offers hallucination or delusion

That brings them to eternal condemnation



This is the work of the god of all lies

Deceiving people with all his alibies

Offering them good things to make them his allies

Yes, fooling God’s people he is so wise



Sad to know that many got enticed

For all his tactics was not recognized

Because to an angel’s face he disguised

His plan to victimize people was realized



This is a wakeup call to all of us

It’s time to declare to them the name of Jesus

The Word of God to them we need to discuss

All Christians should be united to destroy the work of the enemy

The lies of Satan will be destroyed utterly

If the name of JESUS is spread to the world widely

We say we belong to each other
Wow, it's nice to hear
We see each other as a mate
Well, I think it's great

But do we really treat each other as a buddy
Do we spend our time together qualitatively
For if not something must be wrong
And the truth will slap that we don't really belong

So let's evaluate together
Do we really care for each other
Do we celebrate each other's victories
Do we support each other's weaknesses

If it's a NO let's think again
Let's ask each other where have we fallen
For it's never too late
To change the conclusion of our fate

Tell me that I matter to you
And I will tell you that I love you so
Tell me that you want me
And to you I will stay

I don’t know why

You want to see me cry

I don’t know why

You think my life is dry



You don’t know what’s within me

You don’t know my heart sings joyfully

You don’t know I’m resting peacefully

You don’t know the blessing of serenity



O yes, I know I am blessed

O yes, my heart is at rest

Though you think I am the least

But in Christ I know I am complete



I am blessed

Because of Jesus

“I am with you always”

Daily to me He says



So be at rest my dearest friend

There is joy that only me can comprehend

If you want to know how did it happen

Come and listen to the Word of God be open

O, be careful who you are listening to

For you do not know how far you will go

The voices you hear you must know

Only to God you should follow



You will never go astray

If to God you will stay

He will always guide your way

If your ears from him you don’t cast away



You will know if the voice you hear is not God’s

If it encourages you to compromise

To listen to that voice is not wise

For his judgment is according to his own eyes



If following the LORD you are convinced

God will cause the death of his influence

For God wants you to focus to his commandments

Yes, he wants you to walk in complete obedience



He wants you to love Him with all your heart

From His precepts He doesn’t want you to depart

Worshipping Him alone is what He wants

Destroying idol worship He doesn’t want you to be hesitant



In following Him you should be brave

Wrong influences should be put in the grave

If you don’t He will grieve

For to Him you don’t truly believe
