Mary and Heaven

Mary and Heaven

Mary, a vessel of heaven's grace

Contained the King, in her sacred space

Her "yes" brought heaven to earth below

Uniting divine and human, in a love that glows

Now heaven embraces her, body and soul

The Assumption's mystery, makes her whole

United with her Son, in glory and light

A crowning point, to her life's pure delight

Her journey of faith, a path we're called to roam

Fixing our gaze, on heaven, our eternal home

Mary's reward, a promise to us all

Faithful obedience, leads to heaven's hall

Her purity and humility, inspire us to strive

For holiness and surrender, to God's will alive

Mary, our guide, to heaven's gate

Showing us the way, to our eternal state.

Fraternal Correction

Fraternal Correction 

A brother's fault, a gentle hand

Correction offered, with love to stand

Not judgment or condemnation's might

But guidance and care, to bring new light

In private, we speak, with kindness true

Avoiding gossip, and harm anew

No public shame, or hurtful pride

But a calm and open heart, side by side

Timing is key, when emotions subside

A gentle approach, with understanding's tide

Solutions offered, with a helping hand

Not just fault-finding, but a loving stand

Humility's cloak, we must wear with care

Recognizing our own faults, we must share

No righteousness, or holier-than-thou

But a brother's love, that seeks to renew

May our corrections, be motivated by love

A desire to help, sent from above

May we offer guidance, with a gentle tone

And help each other, to grow and be known.

Divine Logic

Divine Logic

A stray sheep wanders, lost and alone,

The Shepherd searches, leaving ninety-nine to roam.

He seeks the one, with love so true,

Every soul precious, in His eyes, anew.

Unlike human hearts, that count the gain,

God's mercy seeks, the one in pain.

No small loss, in His divine sight,

Every soul matters, in His loving light.

With joy, He finds, the lost one's face,

And welcomes home, to a warm embrace.

We're precious, honored, in His sight,

A blessed feeling, to know His love so bright.

Angel's Cake

ANGEL’S CAKE 

Angel's Cake, a gift divine,

Nourishes Elijah, body and mind.

Forty days and nights, he journeys on,

To Mount Horeb, where God's presence is shown.

In the Eucharist, we find the same,

Angel's Cake, Jesus' flesh, our spiritual claim.

Nourished and strengthened, we walk our way,

Through life's journey, to Heaven's gate, each day.

Angels envy us, this privilege so rare,

To eat the Angel's Cake, beyond compare.

In Heaven, they don't have this gift to share,

But we, on earth, receive it, with love and care.

So let us cherish, this sacred food,

And walk with strength, in our life's journey, as we should.

Grain of Wheat

Grain of wheat 

A grain of wheat, so small and round,

Falls to the ground, its life unbound.

In darkness, it breaks, decays, and dies,

But in death, new life, and fruit, it implies.

Like Christ, it rises, transformed, anew,

Its journey long, with struggles, pain, and dew.

From godown to field, to altar high,

It becomes the Body, of Christ, we can't deny.

Death is not end, but a new birth,

A change, a gain, a new life on earth.

In struggles, pain, and failures, we find,

A process of growth, a new design.

So let us embrace, the dying grain,

And trust in life, that comes from pain.

For in death's darkness, new life will sprout,

And from struggles, beauty will devout.

God Rewards

God Rewards

A day of reckoning, a time to face

The consequences of our actions, our choices, our pace

Jesus reminds us, with a gentle might

Our deeds and conduct, will shine with light

God's justice prevails, in every test

Our character and values, will be etched in our breast

Every action, every word, every intent

Recorded in the ledger, of our life's event

Let us live with mindfulness, and a heart so true

Guided by love, with compassion shining through

For in the end, it's not just punishment we face

But abundant blessings, for a life well-placed

So let us strive, to be kind and just

Forgiving and understanding, with a heart we trust

For the way we treat others, reflects our soul

And God's repayment, will make our hearts whole.

Universal Love

Universal Love

In Tyre and Sidon, Jesus walked the shore,

Escaping persecution, seeking more,

A place to train His Apostles, and share,

The universal love, that's beyond compare.

A Gentile woman, with faith so strong,

Cried out for mercy, and didn't go wrong,

Jesus healed her daughter, with a loving hand,

Showing God's mercy, to all lands.

Let's persist in prayer, with trustful heart,

And pull down walls, that set us apart,

For God's love is universal, and true,

Extended to all, who call on Him anew.

Transfiguration

Transfiguration 

Ascend the mountain, encounter God's grace

Transformed by love, we find our sacred space

But we can't stay, we must descend to the plain

And face life's challenges, with love that remains

Transfiguration's glory, a glimpse of what's to be

Disfiguration's horror, a reality we see

In suffering, war, and pain, humanity's scarred

Let's seek eternal glory, and love that's unmarred

Temporary joys, can blind us to what's true

Eternal happiness, comes from God, shining through

Let's not pitch our tents, in fleeting delight

But seek the eternal, where love shines so bright.

Joy in Sharing

Joy in Sharing 

Five bread and two fish, a humble share

Jesus multiplied, with love and care

A lesson of sharing, for all to see

Even small acts, can set humanity free

The apostles learned, that day and night

Sharing with love, brings pure delight

Not the size of the gift, but the heart's intent

Joy in sharing, is a love that's bent

Twelve baskets full, of bread left behind

A reward for sharing, a love so divine

Let us give generously, with open hands

And find joy in sharing, in this promised land

For when we share, we don't become poor

But richer in love, forever more.

Trust in God

Trust In God

In desert sands, a test of faith did stand,

Israelites grumbled, forgot God's mighty hand.

Their unfaithfulness, a stark contrast to see,

Against God's faithfulness, a love that's meant to be.

Despite their doubts, He showed mercy so grand,

Manna from heaven, a miracle to expand.

His goodness unchanged, by human evil deeds,

A faithful God, who meets our deepest needs.

Let us recall, His blessings so divine,

And trust Him still, when struggles entwine.

For He who parted seas, and brought forth bread,

Can turn our hardships, into miracles unsaid.

Palace and the Prison

Palace and the Prison

A palace of darkness, a prison of light

A birthday celebration, a tragic night

Herod's desire, a prophet's demise

A dance of deceit, a bloody surprise

The palace rejoiced, the prison mourned

A life was taken, a soul was torn

The floor ran red, with innocent blood

A guilt-ridden gift, a heart of mud

A mother's desire, a daughter's sway

A lesson of revenge, a deadly way

Where do we stand, in this tragic tale?

With the righteous few, or the guilty frail?

Let us choose wisely, let us choose well

For in the end, our choices will tell

Whether we'll stand, in the palace of light

Or fall in the darkness, of endless night.

Rejection

Rejection 

In Nazareth, Jesus faced rejection's pain,

From those who knew Him, yet failed to gain,

Inspiration from His words so divine,

Admiration alone, left their hearts entwined.

They saw His humanity, but not His might,

Failed to experience His divine light,

Knowledge of Jesus, is not enough, we find,

A heart full of experience, is what we must design.

Let us not offend, but appreciate and see,

The divinity in Jesus, and humanity,

For in His words and deeds, we find our way,

To a heart full of experience, night and day.

Judgement

JUDGEMENT 

At the end of ages, a judgment day,

Angels will separate, come what may,

Righteous from evil, a final stand,

Before God, the Just Judge, hand in hand.

No favoritism, only sincerity,

Our deeds recorded, for eternity,

Good or bad, we must give an account,

Our future destiny, forever bound.

God wishes our good, His love so true,

Mercy and chances, for me and you,

Conversion's call, while still alive,

No regrets, no repentance, when we thrive.

No compromise, no bargain, on that day,

Be good, do good, come what may,

For if we end up, in eternal night,

It's not God's wish, but our own plight.
