My prayer from Jeremiahs word.

Jeremiah XVII

Oh Lord, I pray,

I am sorry for my ways,

I am sorry to have angered you so,

For my old ways that where ones of this world broke your heart,

And angered you so,

I did not see my unwise ways,

Nor did I know you then,

From my choices I have upset you most deeply,

In the ways of the world I have sinned,

I’m a sinner saying sorry,

Sorry to cause such anger and grief Lord,

You are my father and I love you,

Forgive my evil old ways of being,

Forgive my past oh Lord,

I cherish the sacrifice you made by giving your son to the people of this world,

Every whip and every lash, the nails stuck in his hands,

I can see Lord, my trails have been your refinements,

You’ve brought me back to you Lord.

And as I learn, and as I read I thank you for your mighty ways,

Thank you for protecting me, 

I often don’t understand your ways,

I didn’t see it coming, not until I read Jeremiah 17,

It hit me like a tonne of bricks Lord,

The layers of my days.

As a mum, I am blessed to know your love for me,

For I feel for my children the same,

You are the greatest father I have,

Transforming my world in unworldly ways.

In Jesus name,

Amen.

Love.

It’s in God’s grace that I can be found,
Loved, renewed, where my heart can abound,
To shake to the core,
My limits and beliefs,
About the world and that which is beyond my reach,
For God is so great,
Beyond our limits,
Beyond our boundaries,
Beyond our thoughts,
His love so great,
Unimaginable it seems,
And that holds me to my core,
Faithfully.

Learning to pray.

I humble myself, as I lay down to pray,
As I present my mustard seed to God,
Praying for humbleness, praying for family,
Praying for my heart to be gentled.

Declaring the Lord, who came to save,
Declaring I walk with him each day.
Teaching my kids to lean on His ways,
All while I help their little hearts to pray.

To normalize faith, once again in this house,
To love and lean on God for support,
Faith is our way, oh my little one prayed,
God help me use the toilet one day,
You see, she’s retained and delayed.

My eldest prayed for the storm to be over,
God answered her, in the midst of her fears,
Even he’s found a way to help her to pray.

And me, while I’m still regaining my feet in faith,
It’s solid as a rock, like David’s one could say,
Tiny and little, hard and fast,
Defeating it’s enemy without any doubt.

And so I’ll lay here, praying some more,
Studying God’s book that arrived at my door,
And in dream God will show me his comfort,
His warming, soothing, comforting light.

Tug-of-war.

A world I don’t understand,
A world that is different to mine,
A world that is spinning,
In another dimension of time,

Realities vastly different,
One yearning for escape,
Blasting those who are different,
He’s blasting them as an escape.

The horrible spew that comes from their mouths,
Teeming and torturous, horrendous hopes,
Blasting from their mouths like their best well wishes,
While they wish those different to sleep with the fishes.

The other side calls,
The other side yearns,
To be understood,
And to be heard.

To work beside, and not beneath,
Those who are hurting, those that are spiritually weak,
Drive out that evil,
No room in this garden,
For I’ve got to keep my head on level.

And so it is here I end with a prayer,
For you, me and anyone there.
I pray Dear father in heaven,
Show your face to those who cause disconcert,
Change the heart of that man lead servant.
I pray Lord here, hear me now,
As I lay my heart down, on the ground,
Forgive my shortcomings today,
And I pray that things will be done your way.

In Jesus name, amen.

Months in Faith.

Learning to lean on God,
Learning to repent, apologize.
Learning to forgive,
Learning to thrive,
Under God’s eyes.

Even in good times,
Even when I’m wrong,
Forgiving those that hurt me,
Even though I feel victim of their crimes,
I’m under God’s eyes.

It’s sometimes very hard,
It’s sometimes very tough,
To forgive those without a sorry,
When they throw you in the mud.

I’m learning to repent, as soon as I do wrong,
It’s good practice in my books,
As I talk to God.
Learning to forgive them,
Keeping them in my prayers,
Those thieves that make life harder,
Spiritual warfare.

I feel God resting near me,
He’s come round for a chat,
Checkin how I’m going,
Faithful seeds he is sewing.

Little by little,
By the grace of God,
My hard works will pay off when we come face to face.
Imperfectly perfect, is how he likes me.
I will never be the son of God,
But I can pray with He.

Banishing out Satan’s influence,
In patches all over my life,
He will take an inch a mile,
Can’t give him the rope,
Don’t let him make you smile.

For once he’s got a foothold,
A sneaky little hole,
Every little thing,
Is another to have you overthrown.

So banish all the bad stuff,
Anything under his command,
Banish it with Jesus name,
Pushing it out constantly,
All the bad stuffs all the same.

Close the door,
Like Adam should have done,
He should have taught Eve too,
Never engage with the serpent,
Caz you know just what he’ll do.

He will question you,
Make you question God,
“Science has all the answers”
Do not play his game.

He will take you for a ride,
Along the common path,
Bit like sheeple in a crowd,
You gotta know when to pass.

The long hard journey ahead,
Seems lonely it’s true,
Many flake around you,
And God will make you anew.

Do not fret, do not fear,
Our God is always near,
Repent, apologize, he will forgive you at least 539 times.

No need to be perfect,
No need to mimic God,
No need for “Sunday Christians”
No need for that perfectionism appearance.

So as I’m learning,
As I go,
I have found good leaders,
Who won’t talk to or frow.

A preacher and a teacher,
A man and a lady,
The preacher to teach me His ways,
How to be a good Christian woman, she will tell me.

To open the bible,
Open at God’s request,
He will show you what you need to know,
Put the effort in and He’s got the rest.

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.
