His Gift Of Poetry

I want to praise you, God.

2011-11-25T02:22:00.000-08:00

I want to praise you,
God,
for you are worthy of my praise.

I was a poor sinner,
chained in wickedness,
trapped in misery,
until You come into my life.

Enemies after enemies
tried to make my life miserable,
it pained deeply,
Yet you give me hope in life.

I failed you so many times in life,
but You never let me go.
Now that I can,
I want to praise your name,
my God, and most importantly,
my Friend.

You are my reward.

2011-11-25T02:18:00.000-08:00

Ask, you said,
and I will give you all things.

I don't want all things,
oh my Lord.
I just want to be with thee,
like right now,
able to worship you freely,
free from the 'loud' voices
of my enemy.

I just want to be in your presence,
able to have you as my saviour,
not cut off from you,
not separated from you.

Being with you for eternity
is my deepest desire.
Give me yourself as my reward,
for what a joy it is,
for me to spend my time with thee.

The magic of the clock

2011-11-25T02:15:00.000-08:00

Tick, tock.
Tick, tock.
The clock dragged its feet.
Time slowed to a crawl,
as enemies after enemies bombarded my life,
and made me miserable.

"Watch my magic."
You laugh.
Tick, tock.
Tick, tock.
The clock laugh in glee,
as it speedily dance through years.
My enemies still bother me,
but my eyes are fixed on thee.

Dancing together

2011-11-25T02:11:00.001-08:00

History is your servant,
for you to dance your beautiful dance.
You dance in joy
through history,
changing lives,
touching hearts.

I enjoy watching your dance,
I enjoy your beautiful dancing.

You laugh in victory,
and you grab me
to dance together with you.

We dance through history,
there are trials and pain,
but we laugh at them,
as we dance and dance Victoriously.

The Great Artist

2011-11-25T02:08:00.000-08:00

You colour the world
with your paintbrush,
righteousness, mercy, kindness.

You paint a picture
with your life,
goodness, purity, truthfulness.

What wonderful artwork,
named Jesus,
my saviour!

You dance in poetry

2011-11-25T02:06:00.000-08:00

God of gods,
and king of kings,
I worship you
with all my being.

Lord of lords,
and prince of princes,
You are the apple
of my eyes.

Wonderful saviour,
compassionate friend,
Your presence is greatly thanked.

Mighty creator,
the Author of life,
You dance in poetry,
creativity at his best.

We laugh.

2011-11-25T02:03:00.000-08:00

I laugh,
because I am your child.
I know I am victorious.

I laugh,
because I delight in living.
I treasure our sweet communion.

I laugh,
because heaven is in my heart.
You are heaven.

WE laugh.

Come and set me free!

2011-11-25T02:01:00.001-08:00

Come to me,
oh God,
and set me free.

I desire to be free
from demonic possession,
and everyday cry out to you
for your deliverance.

Tears watered my face,
as I think of my bondage,
and my heart desire
for a wholesome body.

You will come to me,
God.
I wait for You,
I look forward to the day
of a wholesome body,
completely subjected to my control,
and free from all evil spirits!

Thank you, my God!

He is great!

2011-11-25T01:58:00.001-08:00

He is great,
powerful and great,
wonderful and righteous,
worthy of all praise.

He is awesome,
wonderful and awesome,
perfect in any manner,

I worship and praise Him,
the only God,
the King of kings,
my friend,
my saviour!

Set me free from possession

2011-11-24T23:35:00.001-08:00

Rescue me, Jesus,
from those who possessed me,
set me free from their possession,
for I long to be free.

Thank you, Jesus.

I laugh.

2011-11-09T22:30:00.000-08:00

I laugh,
because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
I laugh,
because God is my friend.
I laugh,
because I partner with God in His works.
I laugh,
because I Am is my beloved.
I laugh.

To be friend with I am,

2011-11-09T22:28:00.001-08:00

You are the same,
mighty God,
yesterday, today and tomorrow.

You are the beginning and the end,
the Alpha and the Omega,
the first and the last,
the great I am.

It is a joy to ponder your name,
Jesus,
and a delight to be your friend!

Standing in the gap with Him

2011-11-09T22:26:00.000-08:00

This world is full of headaches and problems,
there are so many people in need,
everywhere is an open field,
in need of your servants.

The people cried out in bondage,
their eyes loses hope slowly,
they want to be free,
but their eyes never think to look at the King
that can set them free.

To the right and to the left,
to everywhere they people turn for aid,
except to the Only glorious servant Jesus,
who holds they key to their victories.

I stand in the gap
and I pray,
and as I pray,
eyes begin to turn to the King.

People are set free,
and Jesus holds a smile,
and I smile together with Him.

Desire to be free!

2011-11-09T22:22:00.000-08:00

He had control over my body,
he made me vomit,
he shouted in my head,
Renounce Christ, renounce, renounce Him.

My faith fled,
I stood and trembled,
my lips defied my true will and
I renounced the One who meant to much to me!

Oh, how I live in pain and bondage,
and fear,
and how I long and desire
to be free.

I look at He who died on the cross for me,
and I cried out,
Save me, Jesus, from my demonic possession.

There, there, at the cross!

2011-11-09T22:19:00.000-08:00

Buildings crashed down,
earthquakes occured,
I trembled in fear.

How vast are my enemies,
and how often they made me
renounced you by force,
I wept in tears.

There, there, He hangs.
There, there, on the cross,
My God, my God, why had you forsaken me, He said,
and our eyes met.

You are my God, Jesus.
I know I am safe in your hands.
I tremble, I fear,
but I smile as our eyes met
there at the cross.

There, where all my sins
are washed away!

Beauty of your thoughts

2011-11-09T22:12:00.001-08:00

Your thoughts are precious to me, oh Lord.
It pleased me to ponder over
their vastness and pureness.

I do wonder how and what you think of me,
and such wondering brought a smile on my face.

Your words are beautiful, oh Lord.
I do meditate upon them.
What is the son of man that you care about him,
oh how fortunate I am, my Lord.

Salvation of family, relatives and friends

2011-11-09T22:09:00.000-08:00

My family, and relatives and friends,
need to receive Jesus as their saviors.
Yet their stubborn hearts reject Him.
I am at my wit ends,
I do not know how to open their eyes
to see their need of a saviour.

Yet I extol you, oh Lord.
I trust in your power and wonders.
My family, relatives and friends
will believe in You one day.

Demonic possession

2011-11-09T22:07:00.000-08:00

I am at my wit ends,
I do not know what to do,
my enemy possessed my body,
and I lived in fear.

I desire to be freed,
and had longed for freedom for a long time,
when will you come and deliver me,
oh my Lord and oh my God!

I shall praise your name,
a day at a time,
I shall hope in you
and believe I will be delivered
one of my tomorrows.

Thank you for hearing my prayers,
my Lord and my God!

Worthy of praise!

2011-11-09T22:03:00.001-08:00

Praise the Lord,
oh my soul.
Let me praise your name,
oh you mighty God,

The sun and moons praise you,
the stars adore you,
the heavenly hosts love you.

Who is like you,
oh Lord and God,
so worthy of praise!

You are beautiful,
Oh Lord.
You are so, so beautiful.

Nothing can compare to your beauty,
I simply adore you.

2010-11-12T00:53:00.000-08:00

Almighty Beloved Christ
Does Even Forgives
Greedy Hardened Insolent Junks,
Keen Love Makes Nobody Obsolute.
Protecting Queen,
Righteous Saviour,
True Ultimate Victories!
Walking X, Your Zeal.

Worship

2010-11-12T00:41:00.001-08:00

Worship is perfume
poured out onto you,
highly desired and sought by you!\

Worship is what I give
to you,
willingly and without grudge.

I worship you!

To Forgive

2010-11-12T00:39:00.000-08:00

Anger is hard to soothe,
how did you forgive
your enemy so readily,
my Lord Jesus?

Today, I falter again.
I find it hard to
love those who treat me badly.

Even knowing you are
testing me,
Still, I falter.

Oh, Lord Jesus,
help me to worship you
by walking just like you do,
loving and forgiving my enemies!

I praise you

2010-11-12T00:38:00.001-08:00

The sun praise you,
the moon praise you,
the stars praise you,
oh, God of the celestial realms.

The angels praise you,
the men praise you,
the animals praise you,
oh, God of the living beings.

I praise you.

God of miracles

2010-10-27T22:02:00.000-07:00

The God of miracles,
awesome!

I had heard from days of old
of the wondrous deeds you did,
how you created everything from nothing,
how you separated the sea,
how you destroyed armies,
how you raised the dead,
of all the miracles you did
from the book of old testament.

I have heard from days of old
of the wondrous deeds you did,
how you multipied fishes and bread,
how you raised the dead,
how you healed all dieases,
how you walked on water,
how you turned water into wine,
of all the miracles you did
from the gospels.

I have heard from days of old and new
of the wondrous things they did,
how they walked through long distances in a short time,
how they convicted sinners with their gospels,
how they healed the sick and cured the lame,
of all the miracles they did
from the gospels and from current testimonies.

I had even seen some of these miracles myself in my life.
But alas, it was not enough!
God of miracles,
let me see more miracles.
Let me be amazed,
let me be surprized!

Thank you,
God of miracles.

I give you all my praises!

My third uncle

2010-10-07T01:00:00.000-07:00

Jesus,
I trust in you
no matter what happens.

I know you are
my greatest friend,
someone who cares.

Jesus,
I will love you,
no matter what happens.

Knowing you in my life
is the
sweetest thing to happen.

Jesus,
I will make you
my master.

Surrendering my life
to you
is not easy,
but it will be sweet.

Jesus,
you are my everything.

Watch out
for my third uncle for me!
He did not receive you
when he died,
I know he is in hell now
and your hands are tied down,
but still watch out for him.

Why?

2010-10-04T03:38:00.000-07:00

Me:

Why did you let
my uncle's cancer
spread,
when you know
he means so much to me?

Why did you
let me be possessed
when you know
I desire to be free?

Why did you
disappear
at times
when I truly need your presence?

Yet you will always be my most precious friend.

God:

Why did you spit
and curse at me
when you know
that breaks my heart?

Why did you
deny you know me
when your heart
actually loves me?

Why did you
say you never want to see me again
when you and I are
best friend?

Yet you will always be my most precious friend.

Exalting you in my difficult moments

2010-09-17T01:48:00.000-07:00

Because of my great sins,
I felt too ashamed to praise your name.

I did not want to touch my gift,
I felt too lousy to
glorify you.

Yet, somehow,
through your encouragement, God,
I have the courage to
come before you,
and exalt you
once again.

Was A Sinner

2010-09-17T01:46:00.000-07:00

I am a sinner,
oh my Lord,
having difficulties breaking the chain
of sinning again and again.

I am a sinner,
oh my Lord,
taking you for granted,
hurting your heart again and again.

Grant it that I may say,
I was a sinner,
oh my Lord,
hurting you was something long ago,
I am now in paradise with you,
loving you again and again.

Attitude

2010-09-17T01:43:00.001-07:00

Attitude is what matters,
yet it is something I so lack.

Attitude is what matters,
yet in its cultivation,
it makes me mad.

Attitude is what matters,
having it maybe
will make me glad.

Give me an attitude like yours,
my Lord and my God.

Imperfect Vessel

2010-09-06T01:40:00.000-07:00

I am just an imperfect vessel,
Lord,
with two hands and with two feet.

I find life just a little bit tough,
Lord,
had to earn money so I can feed.

I like to praise and exalt you,
Lord,
your face I love to seek!

Job in danger

2010-09-06T01:38:00.000-07:00

My job is in danger of being lost,
the God of providence,
please protect my job.

My life is in danger of prematuredly ending,
the God of salvation,
take away my desire to die.

You are worthy
of all praises,
at these dubious moments,
I exalt you!

Don't feel your presence....

2010-08-25T01:54:00.000-07:00

A day of work
is at an end,
though I don't feel your presence,
I still thank you for being here.

Many times
in my life,
I do feel so down,
though I don't realize your presence,
I still thank you for invisibly being there.

I like to thank you,
I like to praise you,
I like to glorify your name.
When I feel your presence,
and when I don't.

The Big God, The Small God and my Friend

2010-08-25T01:51:00.001-07:00

I will exalt the big, big God.
He makes the stars,
Sun and the moon.
He makes the time,
Space and the void.
He makes the organs
And every part of man.
I will exalt the big, big God.

I will praise the small, small God.
He uses me to write this poem,
He uses me to teach,
He uses me to make all
Kinds of things.
I will praise the small, small God.

I will thank my friend.
He forgives my inquities,
He helps me in times of troubles,
He pours out his ears to listen to me,
He tells jokes and he smiles with me,
I will thank my friend.

Thank you for coming, yesterday

2010-08-25T01:50:00.001-07:00

Thank you for coming to me
Yesterday,
Your presence means a lot to me.

Thank you for coming to me
Yesterday,
It makes me sure of your reality.

Thank you for coming to me
Yesterday,
It fufills my longings for the King I miss.

Thank you for coming to me
Yesterday,
It allows me to see my servant king.

Thank you for coming to me
Yesterday,
Love is what your coming means.

If Not For You

2010-08-25T01:49:00.001-07:00

My life is a wreck,
If not for you,
If not for you,
What can I be?

My life is full of sins,
If not for you,
If not for you,
How can I forgive me?

My life is imperfect,
Because of you,
Because of you,
There are still beauty in its midst.

Words and your glory

2010-08-25T01:48:00.001-07:00

What shall I say,
Words are so limited,
They are not able
To describe
The wonders of your glory.

I shall say,
Words, though limited,
Are your inventions,
They can declare and
They do reflect
The wonders of your glory

Cheating

2010-06-21T00:54:00.000-07:00

Whatever time I take up
To do my own stuffs,
On Wednesday,
Help me make it up!

Whatever time I take up
To write my poems,
On Wednesday,
Help me make it up!

It is not that
I do not want to do my works,
It is just that,
My paintings are left at my house,
And I finish what
I want to do
For today.

Still, cover me by blood
Of Jesus,
For all my flaws.

Whenever people cheat me
Of my rest,
Help me to forgive them
And pray for them.

Whenever my organization
Gives me extra workload to do,
Help me overcome
My resentment.

That is what a servant does,
That is what you will have done,
Help me to grow more and more like you,
Each and every single day!

You are so beautiful,
My Lord,
Forgive me for moments
When I deny it so.

It is better… yes, I said that,
It is better
To have your character
Than a million, billion, trillion dollars.
Yes, I said that, I said that,
At least for now.

Your heart must be feeling
So sweet,
Each time I desire to be like you
More than I want
A million, billion, trillion dollars.

I need you

2010-06-21T00:52:00.001-07:00

I need your inspiration
To teach children
Songs that they love,
Lessons that they enjoy!

I need your help
To please parents
By letting their children learn
Something worthwhile!

I need your courage
To tell the children
That there is only one way for salvation,
And it is through you, Jesus!

I need you.

The grouchy Servant Teacher

2010-06-21T00:51:00.000-07:00

The chinese teacher
Does not come,
The work of the portfolio
Falls on me.

For the sake of the rabbits,
Friday I do not come,
The work of the typing
Falls on me.

I dread my job
And think it a misery,
Seeing the children
Does not make me happy!

But I give thanks to you
That I am a teacher,
And a servant,
Though unwilling,
I thank you for
Your kind intention
Though I look for other things!

You do not give me
Like the world gives me,
But your heart in giving
Is pure and blameless and sweet!

Though I still feel grouchy
Over my misery of a job,
I give thanks
To you for opportunities
To serve as a teacher
And to provide a living
For me, my family and my rabbits!

The Servant Poem

2010-06-21T00:49:00.000-07:00

Me:
Serving is a chore,
Ugh, I hate it,
Why must I serve
When I can be served?
Why must I have a
Servant heart,
When I delight to
Enjoy my life?

Jesus:
Serving is a joy,
Something worthy to rejoice.
Do not fret when
You have to serve,
Or think that serving
Is a waste of time.
For being a servant
Is a great joy for all
Who chooses to follow the path.

Me:
My life is a wreck
And misery,
As works after works
Come after me!
I know He wants me
To have a servantlike heart,
But I find being a servant
Extremely hard!

Jesus:
No one becomes
A servant
Without the passage of time,
Being a servant is
Something that comes
Through practices after practices.
Do not fret when you
Find being a servant hard,
For everything begins with difficulty,
But slowly becomes easier
With the passage of time!

Me:
My Lord is a servant,
He loves to serve,
He teaches me the right value,
In time when I choose to err,
Being a servant… maybe I try,
But if I falter, don’t call me a fry.

Jesus:
Trying is enough,
Trying is good,
Being a servant is really so good!
Do not fret when people
Mark you down,
Serve with a lowly heart,
And you will earn yourself a crown!

Me:
My Lord, my mentor,
You are always so good!
In times when I grumble,
You still love me the same!

Though I hate to be a servant,
For your sake, I try…
Not to complain
When things do not turn up right!

Jesus:
My precious disciple,
The apple of my eyes,
Do not fret when
Works seem unfair or hard.

The world gives differently
From the way I give,
They give you material comfort,
I give you the servant heart.

Do not cry
When times are difficult or hard,
Do not abandon thoughts
Of living abundantly,
Even when all things
Seems discouragingly.

Things will turn up well
One day you will see,
For a true servant
Never suffers for long,
That I guarantee!

Me:

Thank you so much,
My servant Lord,
Your love, I admit, sometimes
Is hard to see.

But deep inside me,
Somewhere I know,
You love me like
No other people indeed!

I will try to be a servant,
Though I find it hard,
I will serve everyone
And give you my heart.

I love you, my precious
Servant Lord,
Thank you for everything!

Correct usage of my mouth and body!

2010-06-20T21:42:00.000-07:00

I give praise to thee,
I give praise to thee,
you have given me a mouth,
and my mouth praises thee.

I worship thee,
I worship thee,
you have given me a mouth,
and my mouth worships thee.

I give thanks to thee,
I give thanks to thee,
you have given me a mouth,
and my mouth give thanks to thee.

I adore thee,
I adore thee,
you have given me my body,
and my whole body adores thee.

You are great!

Make my life an easy feat!

2010-06-20T21:40:00.000-07:00

They want me to type,
let them finsih the lesson plans
on time.

Let it be easy for me to type,
and let there be no teacher
to complain
that my typing is not good.

Life is full of obstacles,
I feel so weakened,
Have pity on me, Lord,
for I am so weak,
and make me life
an easy feat.

Otherwise, I might dread to live,
and then my endless complaints
might be a dread to thee,
and you wonder whether I will make it
home.

So, have pity on me, Lord,
and make my life an easy feat,
then I can rejoice and praise your name,
and not mind staying here
for a thousand year.

Need your help,
need it so much, oh Lord,
for I am so weak...
when it comes to physical reality.

Timely Rain

2010-06-20T21:36:00.001-07:00

I wanted to eat
many, many things,
tempted to feast
on food abundance.

If not for your rain,
that came so timely,
I would have feast
on food abundance.

Thanks to you,
and your timely rain,
stopping me that I do not feast
on food abundance.

Kind and gentle God

2010-06-20T06:41:00.000-07:00

This... oh yes, this,
will be my last poem for today.

Joyful, oh yes, joyful
am I to worship you!

2 over years, your presence
is far from me.

Joyful, oh yes, joyful,
am I to be in your presence!

Do not forsake me, my God.
Deal with my sins,
purify me and make me white like thee.

I love you, my God,
I want to be with you.
Begin your revival
by changing my attitudes
towards all things.

Wrestle with me, my God
when I am in the wrong,
like you always do
when I stray away.

Wrestle and wrestle
until I am in your likeness
and you are entirely satisfied
with everything I do.

I warn you, oh my God,
I will wrestle hard with you,
I believe in miracles,
I believe in having all gifts,
I believe in salvation for all
and I will wrestle until
you give in... to me.

Still, my God,
when I really am in the wrong,
you must overpower me,
so all things I do turn up right, instead!

I love you, my sweet God.
You are ever so encouraging,
ever so loving,
ever so gentle,
ever so patient.

The people in the comic preacher
had painted you all wrong,
the people who told me you are so fierce and scary
must really not know what they are saying
because my God,
you are always kind and gentle to me,
even in moments when the darkness of my sins encircle me,
you are always kind and gentle,
and that is why
I often break down and cry,
moved deeply by your love for me.

I am still a child.
Teach me.

2010-06-20T06:33:00.001-07:00

It will happen, I know.
Cause I ask of you for it.
Singapore christians will
be famous for their love for thee.

Sometimes, I look at
the state of the Singapore churches,
and I get discouraged, very.
Yet, I fight on and on,
in prayers,
beliving that Singapore christians
will truly, truly, truly love you
And people!

Watch over the church of Singapore,
forgive all our sins,
and use us in a mighty manner
that shakes the nations!

God-- my heart

2010-06-20T06:30:00.000-07:00

To my Father:
You make me and shape me.
Mould me and love me.
Show me wonder and encourage me.
You are the perfect Father
that rains down perfect gift.
You are the perfect Father
that comforts the crying me.
You are the perfect Father
that sends me the perfect mentor.
You are my perfect Father,
and you I love.

To Jesus:
You mentor and guide me,
love and counsel me,
comfort and console me,
even when I am undeserving.

You overcome all my prejudice,
repay in kindness my insults,
show me what it means,
to be perfect in everyway.

Oh, you are my most precious Lord,
and the savior that dies on the cross for me,
your kindness and goodness to me,
even a lifetime I can never repay thee.

You are forgiving and loving,
and you are so like me,
you can cry and you can laugh,
no wonder you said I am made in your image!

I give to my Father respect and love,
but I give to you so much more words than my Father!
No wonder your own Word said:
A man and a woman will leave their parents
and become one flesh.

But for you and me,
it is one spirit,
and maybe one purpose.

You are with me in everything I do,
oh Jesus, I adore you!
Worship and praise in song,
I did badly.
But I really want to give to you what is due you:
all glories, honors and praises
and lots and lots of love!

To Holy Spirit:
You are the everkind friend,
that always works in quietness,
glorifying your best friend Jesus,
in everything you do.

You are an example for me,
my inspiration for what I do,
my joy and my delight
and my very good friend!

To Trinity God:
When I wake, you are with me,
when I sleep, you watch over me,
you bless the works of my hands
and make my enemies at rest with me.

You let me play with the scorpians as friends,
and let me talk to the snakes in joy,
you turn all the fierce lions to be kind to me,
and make everything in my life prosperous!

I owe you all my being,
the body and mind that I have,
and the heart that pumps within me.
You are ever loving with me,
but sometimes quite firm and stern, too.

In a wrestling match, I can never win you.
Oh God, you are too simply powerful,
yet in humility,
you often let me win.

Ah my God,
my joy and my delight,
the apple and orange of my eyes,
my sweet inheritance,
my joyful property,
my dearest treasure,
the secret to the fact that I live,
and the power of my victorious life,
the most important person/s in my life,
my heart.

I love you.

In poetry, my praise!

2010-06-20T06:18:00.000-07:00

Using poetry to adore you,
using poetry to worship you,
using poetry to praise you.

You are
perfect in every way,
meek and humble in every aspect,
powerful and majesty in every domain,
great in every sense.

Haha.

I want to shine for you, my Lord!

2010-06-20T06:16:00.000-07:00

I want to shine for you, my Lord.
In every aspect of my life.
In every single day.
In every single hour.
In every single minute.

I want to shine for you, my Lord.
And be a testimony.
To my family.
To my friends.
To my enemies.

I want to shine for you, my Lord.
It is really not easy.
It needs patience.
It needs endurance.
It needs love.

I want to shine for you, my Lord.
And be in your image.
Meek.
Humble.
Loving.
Kind.
Honest.
Truthful.
Just.
Fair.
Perfect.

Complaining parents

2010-06-20T06:13:00.000-07:00

Complained and complained
they did,
those parents of my children!

Won't they say a word of praise
for me,
put forth good words to my principal,
make my life a pleasure
and teaching a joy?

Still, I commit them to you,
these complaining parents,
who are not my enemies,
but who make my life sometimes a misery!

Give me your patience, dear Lord,
to deal with parents like these!

Kindergarten teaching not a chore!

2010-06-20T06:11:00.000-07:00

Kindergarten teaching is a chore,
for me, to me, for me.

The children are unresponsive,
the parents are complaining,
the workload is getting heavy.

Kindergarten is a chore,
for me, to me, to me.

But maybe with your help,
the chore can become a pleasure for me.

I want to be a good kindergarten teacher,
help me do it, oh my Lord.
I want to be a good kindergarten teacher,
won't you make being a kindergarten teacher
not a chore for me?

At least until I find a better job.
Thank you, oh my Lord!

Waffles and Wishes!

2010-06-20T06:08:00.000-07:00

Waffles and Wishes,
darling two rabbits,
come to my house to stay.

Bless them with good health,
and happy lifestyles,
the God of all cute rabbits!

Happy Father Day!

2010-06-20T04:02:00.001-07:00

Happy Father's Day!
Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day
to my real Father,
the Almighty God of the universe!

And happy father day
to my foster father,
the one who lives in my house with me!

Not Lost

2010-06-20T04:00:00.000-07:00

I thought I lost my inspiration,
only when I started writing,
then I discover my gift is still there.

My gift of poetry,
one of your many gifts,
it is not lost,
just like how it is with a living sacrifice...me,
who sometimes wander off your altar,
but always come back to you again
in the end.

Temptation and You

2010-06-20T03:58:00.000-07:00

Temptations are like
cups that are full of filth inside
but looks full of gold on the outside.

Knowing that temptation is like this,
still I fall for its trick, again and again.

You are like
cups that look so plain and worthless on the outside,
yet is full of perfect gold within.

Knowing that you are like this,
still I trample on you, again and again.

Oh Lord... sorry.
Forgive me.

Wanted to tell you...

2010-06-20T03:56:00.000-07:00

I wanted so much to tell you,
to tell you, to tell you,
Jesus, I am so glad for you
to be back in my life again.

I wanted so much to tell you,
to tell you, to tell you,
Jesus, I am so glad for you
to be back in my life again.

I tell you, I tell you, I tell you,
Jesus, I am so glad for you
to be back in my life again.

Sinner used by God

2010-06-20T03:54:00.000-07:00

I feel so unworthy, Lord,
to lead a world of people,
especially when my own life
is now so full of darkness!

To the eyes of those who cannot see,
I may look so holy,
but only Lord, you can see
all that darkness that is within me.

How can I be a leader
when I do not walk by example?
How can I pray for sinners,
when I myself sin so often?

Yet, in your graciousness, my Lord,
you appoint me a leader,
and in your abundant love,
uses me, still!

Thank you for using me, Lord,
though I am dark of sins within me,
thank you for using me, Lord,
for your unfailing trust in me!

Praise you with my gift of poetry!

2010-06-20T03:50:00.000-07:00

My old archives of poems are gone,
I deleted them away in a spur of moments!

All my adorations, inspirations,
vanished without a trace!

It may not be altogether back,
for with nothing to look back on,
I can begin my array of poetic praise all over again!

Praise you, oh mighty God,
with one of my many gifts,
praise you, oh awesome beauty,
with my gift of poetry!

Worshipping you in poem!

2010-06-20T03:48:00.001-07:00

I cannot worship you in songs,
the joy I used to have when I worship
is gone!

Today, in church,
worship is so dry!
I do not mean a thing I sing!

Maybe I can worship you in poems,
and make up for my lack of quality
by my quantities!

Dryness of fellowship

2010-06-20T03:47:00.000-07:00

You are glorious,
you are awesome,
no sin is found in you,
no sin is found in you.

Fellowship is so difficult for me,
praise and worship seems so dry,
you appear so far away,
there is a barrier between us, God.

I remembered a time
when you are everything to me,
there is no barrier between us,
you share your heart so frequently with me,
your purpose is like my purpose,
your desire is like my desire,
and yet this seems like eons ago.

Why had I changed so much,
why aren't you the treasure of my heart,
my darling God,
my safe refudge,
my precious,
why is this wall so thick!

How I long for a sword
that can cut through this barrier
and brings me back to
the kind of worship
I used to have for you!

Thank you so much, my Lord,
for not abandoning me
when I am so rude,
for not giving up on me
when all in my life does not appear good,
for loving this grumpy, grudgeful, greedy sinner!

Rescue me from the flood!

2008-08-30T04:59:00.000-07:00

The flood comes
surging around me,
the flood chokes me.

The flood you can
diminish,
so come and diminish the flood,
my Lord.

Rescue me from the flood,
my Lord and my God.

Praise your name,
you are worthy,
praise your holy name!

Save me, oh Lord

2008-08-30T04:58:00.001-07:00

Save my life, oh Lord.
Rescue me from
the pit.

You are my God,
in you, I trust and hope.

Come quickly to rescue me,
my Lord and my God.

I will praise your name,
Almighty God.

In need of help

2008-07-18T04:48:00.000-07:00

I am in need of help,
help me, oh Lord.

I am in desperate need of help,
help me desperately, oh Lord.

I praise and exalt your name,
and wait for your rescue!

You are worthy

2008-05-08T19:01:00.000-07:00

I exalt thee,
I exalt thee,
I praise and exalt thy name.

You are worthy,
God, you are worthy,
you are worthy of eternal praises!

Remember me, God.

2008-05-08T18:59:00.002-07:00

I tremble,
fear paralysed me,
you are nowhere to be seen.

I wonder,
doubts plagued me,
you are nowhere to be seen.

I exalt your name
in the midst of my fear.
I praise your name
in the midst of my doubt.

Remember me, God.

You reign for eternity!

2008-05-08T18:59:00.001-07:00

I exalt thee,
I exalt thee,
I praise and exalt thee.

You are good,
you are good,
you reign for eternity.

I will praise and exalt your name!

2008-05-08T18:57:00.000-07:00

You had struck down all I had,
you had given the enemies power over me,
I stumbled and I faltered,
and I could not see you.

I will praise and exalt your name.
I will praise and exalt your name.
Until the day I die,
and return to thee,
I will praise and exalt your name.

My praise, my worship, my exaltation of your name!

2008-05-05T03:02:00.001-07:00

This is my praise,
You are great, Jesus.

This is my worship,
you are awesome, Jesus.

This is my exaltation of your name,
you reign forever, Jesus.

Promise and reputation!

2008-05-05T02:58:00.000-07:00

You had made promise to me
that I will tread on the cobra and the lion,
trample on the great lion and the serpent.

You know who the cobra is,
you know who the great lion is,
you know who the serpent is.

You affirm this promise still stands
through Alexia.
You cleanse me of my sins of blasphemy.

This promise stands,
this promise stands,
once again your reputation is at stake.

My eternal destination is linked to your reputation.

I will not die until the right age, oh Lord.
Not even when I lose all my will to live and fight,
for your reputation is at stake, oh my God.

How can you let me fall to hell,
it will mean a smear of your name,
my precious God.

The Son of beauty

2008-05-05T02:57:00.000-07:00

You are so beautiful, Jesus,
The Son of man,
the Son of God,
radiance surrounds you,
light wraps itself in adoration of you.

Your righteousness shines,
holiness and integrity
longs to be near you,
they seek after you desperately.

You are so beautiful, Jesus,
I worship you.
Clothe me with your righteousness,
the Son of beauty.

God can turn the situations around!

2008-05-05T02:55:00.000-07:00

Can you really turn my situation around,
my Lord and God?

Is this the same as Job?

Will the enemies turn back at your command,
oh God?

I ask, cos I doubt.

You can really turn the situation around,
my Lord and my God.

This is the same as Job.

The enemies will turn back at your command,
oh God.

I affirm cos I have a little faith.

Your reputation is my hope.

2008-05-05T02:52:00.001-07:00

The enemies mock me,
they said, "It is the end of you.
You are dead.
God had handed you over to us."

You encouraged me,
you said, "Remember psalm 91.
Remember my promise.
Remember my reputation is at stake."

Circumstances seem to agree with the enemies,
it seems like it really may be the end of me,
yet one thing you give to me,
one thing you put to my care,
your reputation, Lord, is at stake.

You will come down to hell to rescue me,
you will not tarnish your name.
In your reputation,
I hold some hope.

I praise and exalt your name,
I praise and exalt your name.
In your reputation,
I hold some hope.

I will praise and exalt your name!

2008-05-05T02:51:00.000-07:00

I will praise your name, oh Lord.
I will praise your name, oh God.
I will praise and exalt your name,
my Lord and my God.

There is none like you, oh Lord.
There is none like you, oh God.
I will praise and exalt your name,
my Lord and my God.

I will yet trust you!

2008-05-05T02:50:00.000-07:00

Everything falls around me,
oh God.

My life is a misery,
oh Lord.

Had David went through such great pain
as mine?
Did Elijah traveled through such great
torment as what I had faced?

I despaired of life itself,
my body, soul, spirit, is so weak, oh God.

Come and deliver me,
I will yet trust you,
my God and my Lord.

You have a promise to keep!

2008-05-05T02:48:00.000-07:00

My enemies are hard on me,
they are attacking me,
they are devouring me,
I am hard-pressed and unable to endure anymore.

Come and rescue me,
oh Lord.
Come and deliver me,
Jesus.

Come and save me,
quickly, please,
my God.

You have a promise to keep!

When will you come, oh Lord?

2008-05-05T02:46:00.000-07:00

When will you come,
oh Lord?
When will you deliver me
from my enemies?

When will your hands
uphold and rescue me?

I am tired of waiting, oh Jesus.

Please, save me, come and save me.

Yet, I exalt and praise your name.
I will trust in you, dear God,
to deliver me and save me.

Worthy To Be Praised

2008-03-07T05:46:00.001-08:00

Worthy, you are worthy
to be praised.

Lord God Almighty,
Creator of Life,
Worthy Worthy of All Praises.

When troubles come,
when joy prosper,
when I struggle with hatred,
when I overflow with love,
when desert and stream abundance cross,
you remain the One True God.

So I dedicate all praises to you.
So I dedicate all praises to you.

Social is dead

2008-02-15T21:25:00.000-08:00

Social died today or yesterday.
He died of a happy old age. He was much older than Winter and he was a considerate pet.
He died after I cleaned his cage for him yesterday. Yesterday, I cleaned his cage, and he died in a clean cage. I loved Social very much. To me, he is not just an animal, but a darling.

Dearest Social, this is a small poem for you.
I give one to Winter.
So, I will give one to you.

Social,
aggressive turned gentle,
bright sparkling eyes,
healthy old body,
an overcomer,
overcoming old age, illness
and my lack of love.

Now, be with Winter,
the darling that had won my
heart and love.

Thank you very much
for being a visible part of my life.
You taught me responsibility
in the midst of stress.

Social, I love you.
This poem I dedicate to you.

God creates animal to be like our equal, for us to love. Imperfectly, I gave Social back to my Father.

"I had been faithful in my charge of the little darling, and now it is your turn to show him
the better paradise."
