No Tune.

This is a quote I’ve heard a lot lately, I’d like to write on it: God is like the sun.

I sung it as I wrote it, I hope you can pick up on it as you’re reading…


Looking up at the bright light,
Shining there, in the middle of the day,
Summers here and we get burnt,
When Winter comes we will enjoy the same rays.

But the sun is a constant one.
Always rising in the east,
Forever setting in the west,
Theres only one, constant burning sun.

Some need vitamin D, they’ll get it,
Some rising from depression, they need it,
Some coming out to play,
They’ll feel it’s warm, warming ray,

Come out from a dark place,
It will blind your eyes,
Might sear your face,
You will find it really hot,
It’s a blaze,
Its hot, hot sun rays.

Like the sun, God is constant.
Like the sun, my God is great.
Like the sun, my God helps us grow,
To some God’s got a blaze,

But to me, God’s rays are gentle,
To me, I need his grace,
To me, I bask in him all day,
To me, I need that blaze to make my base,
I can’t function with out His rays,

A day without the sun, is tricky,
I can not find my right headspace.

A day without God, is tricky,
I can not find my grace.

A day without the sun, is dreary,
A day without my God, I’ll lose my pace.

For some who have never seen my sun,
For those it might burn your face,
For you got to know how to work with it,
Or you might end up with a red faced.

So when you first pray,
Ask God for what you need.
Talk to him like he’s your best friend,
Ask him for he’s in the lead.

But there’s no wrath like the sun,
When you’re out of vitamin D,
You feel sad, alone and cold,
Motivation to the sun grows old,

Like the heat of my God won’t change,
He’s the same in n out all day,
When you lack the truth on your tongue,
Seeking him out seems quite dull.

When you begin to find the sun,
You first sit in the shade.
You might just look out your window,
Might just cover your face.

When you begin to talk with God,
You might not hear him right away,
You might just have a tiny seed of faith,
That you can just tuck away.

Then you feel the sun,
Shining on your back.
You feel the warmth blessing in the air,
You notice something is different,
You’re getting your confidence back,

And when your confident,
Soon your gardening,
In that warm, soft, gentle blaze,
The one that one that use to burn your skin,
Youre happy it’s hit your face,

Now you can see clearly,
As the old times back look bleak,
Dull, dusty and boring,
Wondering why you took so long doubting it.

Not for the Narcs.

Centrelink scammer is all you see,
Living freely, carelessly,
Assumptions are made, disregard,
All because you go to work and work hard,

But what you don’t see is me,
Living faithfully,
Managing little people’s big emotions carefully.
And what you don’t see,
Is the appointments made,
Rearranged, and made again,
Follow ups,
The car drives,
Medical stuff,
Well I can’t let that slide,
Accountability to others,
And their knowledgeable way,
Helping my kids be a functional human,
Society may accept one day,

You don’t see the meltdowns,
The whole body throws,
The tears, the feelings these little kids crow,

And all while you say I just sit on my bum,
Have a free life,
Where I am rich and have it all my way,
In your mind, I’m just having a ball,
Everything is my way,
I should always do better,
And my good enough is never written in your letter.

Not to mention the nappy changes,
I have three, while most of the time you have none,
And while I sit here, writing this out,
I’m praying to God to stop this urge to let you know how I’m really feeling,

Cleaning up, laundering.
Fixing scrapes and bruises,
Headaches and runny noses,
Meals and snacks,
Food shopping,
Don’t forget the upcoming house inspection,
I can’t forget to chase you up dad?
Who scrapes by bare minimum?
While you can’t afford full child support,
But get 4 times more than I do…

And in you house it’s only you,
With your adult child,
Your income would be close to $80k
And you can’t afford to pay?

Here I am, single mum of four,
Living on 1/4 of your income and yet I can’t be poor,
Rolling in the luxuries,
Must be the way,
You don’t see my car needs new breaks,
Fan belt, only just operating.

The broken window I have to pay for because the landlord didn’t want to fix the glass door that sticks…
Another thing I have to organize on my list.

But I can’t, because I have to get my kids stuff seen to.
Paying for another pair of prescription glasses,
My child lost her new ones,
Though they are probably at the school because they don’t pack them up half the time,
But that’s also my fault I can’t find them, like it’s some sort of a crime.

And what do our kids eat?
Don’t you know, they are old enough you should know!
My fridge is full of fruit and vegetables,
Good nut spreads and breads,
Watered down juice and water,
Why what do they eat at yours, mortar?

They come home clogged up, constipated,
And what I am doing is not nearly enough?
Who does the hydro runs,
Avoiding obvious puns,
Around you constantly holding my tongue.

Two of your kids and suddenly I’m no fun?
Really, I wonder if it was almost prolapse that got me, hun?
Or the fact my backs almost literally breaking,
It’s still not enough,
I should have predicted,
And it’s all my way,
Like I’m psychic and planned it this way.

The Works.

These songs are written through me,
They elevate my fingers,
As I touch and type these words,
It’s like a river flowing through me,

There is no saying where it will lead,
Much deeper than I could have gone,
These words written on my page,
Are done so with glory to God.

There is no knowing,
Where these rhymes will turn it go,
But his spirit is with me,
Everywhere I turn.

With Him by my side,
Who knows what will be next,
But I know I am covered,
By Him who saved me there.

To trust in faith,
Little by little,
Like a carpenters work,
Spinning at a wheel,
Slowly chipped away at,
Until David was revealed,
The pieces fall around me,
Ever slowly crashing down,
The chaos comes around me,
Tries to catch me out,

My relationship with God,
With the one and only source,
Of creativity and abundance,
Of our simple life force,
Is one that is whole,
It is one that is clear,
Simple cut,
Once you start catching on to terms,

Life is flowing round me,
God is by my side,
Like a dead fast pillar in an avalanche,
I can ask for help to hold on.

When God is by my side,
My knees shudder at the thought,
I stop, I pray
God show me the way
And help me not give up.

For flesh is only small,
And spirits sometimes meer,
When the avalanche is occuring,
Just make sure I ask God to be near.

He will protect me,
He will shield me from fear,
My knees may be wobbling,
But I know my God is near.

I can do things scared,
I might not do them right,
But I’m under God’s protection,
Even through the night.

Stories to make Manuals.

I can’t watch anymore,
The collapse of my chaotic world,
Only what it seems,
But that’s not reality,

In search of new perspective,
Running out of ideas,
Surely someone out there
Has another collective.

Another idea to spark my table,
To change my perspective,
To get a new angle,

To draw up my plans,
There’s a way to make it work,
Call out the people,
Who make the world real,

Between you and I,
Between myself and the tree,
Grounding,
Healing,
New family,

A bond,
A break,
A trust,
Some stuff,
Ideas thrown round like some candy fluff,

To spark a new interest,
To spark a new side,
To take a new perspective,
On yet a new and very different kind of side.

To take a moment,
To let it sink in,
A jolly good laugh,
And some secret grins…

To share some moments,
Of some hard times gone,
To have a handbook, for me to take a look,

On what you did,
How you over came,
How you split your world,
N put it back together again.

To speak and to heal,
To try and to trust,
To forge a friendship out of mutual rust.

To give some guidance,
Some here or there,
For what you have to say,
My friend,
Is all that is there.

We all are filled by ideas of trust,
Of forgiveness,
Of hearts,
Of how not to lust,

How our words impact our world,
From day to day change,
While the things we say are being hurled.

Trapped into hearts of the ones we love,
Because we’re stuck in our ways,
Because we feel stuck in our luck…

But little do we know,
If we all went to the pub,
You, me, the village and half the stuff,
Then stories be told,
Brave and triumphant,
Overcoming obstacles before words turn to nothin’t.

Young and the old,
Believe and the brave,
The witless, the weary,
The teary, the ones that rave…

For we all have a story,
All sorrows to be told,
For you never know what secrets,
They’ll have to behold.

For there might be a gem,
A snag or two,
Of how to get out of a pickle or two.

And deep down is that feeling,
So lost, so cold…
Of that little boy or girl who just lost their entire world.

Heartfelt.

When dancing comes my way,
I catch it.

When snowballs come my way,
I smile at it.

When disappointment comes to show,
I feel it.

When I am on my own,
I can start again,
Take the wind,
Take the air,
Breathe new life into it.

Take the breeze,
Take the flow,
Let the movement help you go.

When there’s quite all around,
Let the music take abound,
When I feel it in the air,
I stop and I stare…

There’s nothing I should know,
I can take that deep hearted blow,
Because deep down I will keep,
Those memories made for me.




Non-religious Faith

Non-religious Faith

I am faithful to God,
But I’m not religious.
I talk to God,
And I’m not church goer.
And I’ve got mustard seed faith,
I will lead my children to God’s face,
I talk to God in the most ordinary way.

When I talk to God,
It’s like my best friend,
A mentoring person always at hand.
He’s got the best advice,
God likes to joke,
He makes me smile,
He gets intense,
He gets crystal clear,
He’s always got the best listening ear.

I am a God follower,
I will stand strong,
With God at my side, he’s never wrong.

Clothed in the blessings,
He’s offers us all,
He knows when to hide me,
And when I will fall,

He doesn’t always catch me,
And sometimes it hurts,
He picks up the pieces,
When sometimes I’m broke,

It takes courage,
It takes faith,
To call out to him,
To ask Him for help,

It’s not always comfortable,
Sometimes a terrible mess,
Holding space for me,
Following faithfully,
God always has the right heart place.

He will see me when I call,
He will fix me when I fall,
He will humble me at the best of times,
I am his child at all times.

I am imperfect,
I will cry,
I will be heartbroken,
I won’t lie,

Life’s not easy with God on my side,
The path is always the straight and narrow way,
I may have to fight,
And stand so tall, upright,

God will cloak me in his strength,
He will always be my place to rest,

Following God, His heart’s on my side.





Do you follow God but don’t have a church?

I would love to hear your experience, connect below.

Inspired.

My road to God was not easily made,
A lot of bumps along the way,
Twist and turns,
Rounds and bends,
Devastation at all ends,

Fall in the pitfall,
Can’t get myself out,
No one can help me,
There was no way out.

Years of Questioning,
Years of doubt,
Years of finding what the world was about,

Untrusting, no faith.
God slaughtered by the church,
With Sunday smiles,
And real emotions got filed.

Pretend it’s okay,
Oh Emma your just fine,
Get out of your headspace,
Smile all the time,

Got a job Sundays,
To get out of that fake place,
The church and Jesus was done for,
Only go there to save face,
It wasn’t about faith.

Appear to be happy,
Appear to be good,
Hide those true feelings,
In order to be understood.

My faith was dry,
Killed by the church,
I saw falsities,
Everywhere I turned.

So on Sundays I got a job,
Anything will do,
Dry cleaners work is new.

So my faith was gone,
I doubted the whole world,
What was real,
What was fake,
And what it was people can just make,

Science and knowledge,
Reading up real good,
For answers to questions,
That yearned to be understood.

Lessons on bodies,
Functionality tests,
Bad psychology,
It was good where it led.

I felt smart,
I felt in conrrol,
I felt like I could do something,
Which was really out of my control.

The devil’s works,
Are easily hidden,
By information that comes from the earth,
Not heaven.

Man made tests,
Some made to suffer,
And the extent of these things,
No one knows from the other.

Knowledge is power,
Knowledge is great,
Knowledge is unbreakable,
Where as knowledge is fake.

A hard lesson learned,
As I thought I was right,
But behind the knowledge,
Something wasn’t bright.

The history is dark,
The psychology is bad.
No consent,
Suffering for answers is still to be had…

Knowledge is great,
Knowledge is good,
Until you can see the evil,
It needs to be understood.

How did we learn,
About people’s brains?
Subjects to tested,
They where never the same.

Unwilling participants,
Subject to shame,
For those that where different,
Couldn’t have a say.

The history behind it,
Is so bad,
It appears to be good,
It appears to be helpful,

When you begin to read,
What happened in our past,
What people where subject to,
Under those who put themselves in charge…

And when you read the history,
And what is taught in schools,
White men always conquer,
White men always rule.

The history of Australia,
The same goes in America,
The false prophets claim,
The false prophets rule.

To give God a bad name,
To slandee His word,
To make it uneasy,
To make God unheard.

To give false hope,
To be solid in science,
To know all the answers,
To make a strong alliance.

To confuse,
To tear down,
To weather away,
To fear,

The false god is everywhere,
Something real to fear,
For we know where he works,
We know where he hides,
Behind knowledge and the confusing lies.

To make things grey,
To blur the lines,
To make it hard,
To make a lot of lies.

To uncover God,
In his own false way,
To appear real,
So you think you can heal.

To make you think your god,
To make your hard works amazing,
To force you to confront things,
Force your heart to hide things…

To see his work,
You’d assume it’s good,
Knowledge is power,
Something we understood…

To be in the classroom,
Forced eye contact,
To appear to be concentrating,
Forced to appear not to lack.

Don’t fall behind,
Don’t colour how you wish,
Don’t use your imagination,
Here’s another standardized quiz.

Knowledge is great,
Knowledge is good,
So many with collage degrees,
Only leaving with a huge ton of fees.
None in their job,
Overqualified for some,
Some kicking and wishing they hadn’t begun.

Swinging depression,
The psychology of today,
And the trauma of people,
On mass scale for sale…

For the pursuit of knowledge,
That very fine thing,
But when they don’t have answers,
They won’t take no as the answer.

For I have said no,
On many occasions,
Let’s follow your son,
Bribery at play,
We will give you a free assessment,
We will provide it no charge,
Let us tag along on your journey,
There’s our work to be done,

They say you’ll help others,
You’ll be doing good,
Let us test your kids,
To see what you have done.

Then it clicked,
It dawned on me,
The depth of the ocean,
The bottom of each sea,

To the ends of the earth,
To the God given life,
The depth of knowledge,
It will never suffice.

And who can I thank,
For the marvellous creation,
For the one that gave the world a nation,

It dawned on me,
To the ends of the earth,
Knowledge is limited,
A never ending thirst.

For if knowledge was so vast,
It would run past the sea,
Beyond the ocean,
No one could ever see…

And if knowledge in man,
Was meant for us so,
Then why can’t they recreate the humble dodo.

If man where so great,
So knowledge and powerful,
Nothing would be lacking,
Everyone would be fruitful…

But man can not run with that level of power,
You see them all cower,
When they can’t explain something,
Downplaying the results,
And uplifting their service,
When all along I was the one,
Connecting the dots.

They force me to hardship,
They’ll force me to cover,
They’ll force me to do anything,
At their want and their power.

They lie to me,
They lie to each other,
They downplay the good,
And expect me to accept their shit on a plate,
Lucky and thankful they’ll accept.

For I am no one,
Another number for their book.
For them to experiment,
So they can look good.

Don’t build up immunity,
The hospital told me,
Pushed on the weight,
Because surely she will need that…

For she will suffer,
She will get sick,
She will be hospitalized,
Her outcome is bleak.

She was born low immune,
Heart a little wonky,
And has a small lung.

They told me she’d die,
If I didn’t do as they asked,
They told me I’d kill her,
I had better act fast.

So I did what was best,
Knowledge at the time,
Knowing how the body works,
I would only accept what I know works best.

I stopped attending those experts one day,
I built up her immune system,
I had my say.
My results where so good,
The doctors surprised,
They need to monitor her,
With the corner of their eye.

A few years later,
My son was born poor,
Experiments started again,
This is when I began to find God.

I prayed and I prayed,
God send his angels to my son,
As he lied on the hospital bed,
So frail, so young.

They worked and they worked,
He got better, they said,
They wouldn’t admit when they fucked up,
But held everything on my head.

They put me through hell,
Ripped out my heart,
Burdened my brain,
Broken my heart.

I didn’t pray much,
Very little back then,
Those few months ago,
When it shook me to and fro.

God by my side,
Full power at work,
Devil at play,
This is spiritual work.

God on my side,
I found Him again,
Shattering all my fears,
Making life okay again.

He healed my son,
He restores my faith,
He listened to my prayers,
He is like no one.

For God is good,
For God is great,
For He made the dodo,
For He made my kids great.

Some days I forget,
That He walks with me,
But I soon pray that he forgive me.

For I know I am stronger,
With Him on my side,
For He holds the word,
And He knows his power.

He can heal the sick,
Unlike the man made magic stick,
God knows it all,
Man won’t ever accept that they’ll always fall.
