Lessons


I have learnt very little in success
Whilst realising that popularity rarely makes
Enduring friendships...
And of course,
As tempting as it is,
Money only makes sadness
A little more comfortable.
However,
I am learning,
The guidebook to life
Is the enduring challenges
Of the consequences of our
Many great failures.
My teachers are my faults,
Somehow,
We must all rise from being the victims,
To become the healers of those whom we have hurt,
Applying the bandages of our own
Vulnerable honesty,
Learning not only to forgive
But to seek forgiveness.

Mercy, have mercy


Please my friends, mercy must forever triumph over judgment otherwise we all fail and fall. 
Whatever our opinions and bias, we exist simply because of an act of overwhelming grace. 
It's time to cry,
To weep, to plead,
And shout,
Have mercy.
It's still time to start a grace revolution.
It's still time for hope,
It's still time to petition,
Whatever the crime,
Equalling it degrades us all.
Without grace
We are without hope and without life.
