Prayer for Difficult People in our lives

There will be days when we encounter people who are difficult to deal with. It may be at home, at work, at school, and even at church.  We must ask God to help us decipher and understand them, to grant us His Godly wisdom so that we may uplift His name! Let us not judge and condemn them but show them the love of Christ. We must ask for the strength and courage to forgive those who may have wronged us, just as we have been forgiven.

Here is prayer for dealing with difficult people:

Dear Heavenly Father,

I pray that you show me the way,
for I do not know how to deal
with this difficult person in my life.
I know that you’ve placed them
here for a reason and I am grateful
for that. Grant me your Godly Wisdom
so that I may uplift your name!

Give me strength and courage so
that can forgive them just as
you have forgiven me.

Please guide my thoughts and
actions as I deal with them.

AMEN!

Prayer to start the day

Prayer to Start the Day

This is another day, O Lord. I know not what it will bring forth, but make me ready, Lord, for whatever it may be.I thank You for my being able to awake once again, to see, and to hear this morning. I’m blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You continue to bless me. Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. Make these words more than words, and give me the Spirit of Jesus. Amen.

My Prayer to Start Today

Dear Lord, I thank you that you are the Morning Star, you let the bright hope of the Sun to shine across our land. You give us a fresh new start with life, heartbeat and breath. I know you are in my every breath and in my every move, you know and you care. My weaknesses and my sins, you are familiar with my ways. I have to seek your forgiveness and wisdom, again and again. 

Guard my foot steps today, help me to make a good start and to chart my speed for the day. May my work be shift and productive. May my hands and feet be quicken to do good deeds and my every move be purposeful and intentional aligned to the will of God. 

Protect me and my loved ones from harm and danger. May the evil ones be far from us. Grant me my daily portion of grace and strength to carry on while I learn of my frailty and mistakes, over and over again. Teach me not to give up on myself. Help me to look upon you to carry on. 

In Jesus' name I pray, Amen !

How Most days are like ...

I ventured into gardening with a passion
To grow a special fruit that is sweet and nice
I went into gardening with a dream
To let everyone see a special yield of harvest
I traveled into less-traveled road
To search for something new and hopeful

But most days I did not travel
I did not move an inch
I was idling with my computer
On something else

But most days I did not do any gardening
I did not check the seeds
Even forgot to water the plants
That be so damaging

But most days I did not enter the garden
I was just day-dreaming in my head
How seeds are meant to grow
Into something magical

So on most days I do not feel
that I have a Almighty God sitting on the throne
Watching and guarding me
Instead on most days
I feel I am a worm, so lowly and sad

Be brave my heart and preserve
Repent from wrongs and move forward
Where there is a will, there is a way
Where there is a way, there be a garden
;Where there is garden, there be plants
Where there are plants, there be fruits
Where there are fruits, there you will find
Your dream of seeds becoming fruits
has come true

Semester 3 Week 5 Plans
25 Apri 2015

I have listened to a lot of vidoes about publishing a sound journal paper worthy of publication in international journal. I felt that I am forcing myself to fly before I know how to do take off and landing. It is all new, all unconventional !

I need start that journal writing ASAP ! Before middle of May, I must showcase something. Before I meet the supervisor, I must do up the paper.

Help me concentrate, Lord and not be distracted.

Deadline driven Creativity

There is something within me that slows down the internal clock of my soul, so it seems. Things that should bother me do not often push me to respond fast. Things that upset me cause to pause and slow down but life still has to carry on. Things that threaten me, I will think of about them often, of the threats and the consequences of inactions but still, it does not drive home the urgency to react immediately.

Something has happened to my internal clock system. I think it has been over-wound too tight, too fast, too strong and the gears of wheels have worn out, there is no friction within, hence the ticking of the clock is irregular and dangerously slow. My response system is also gone mad.

I live in the tyranny of the urgency, I am the excellency of the urgent stuff. Sometimes I managed to get them all passed the deadlines just with minutes to the deadline, sometimes, I just went passed the deadlines due to wrongly memory of deadlines.

It seems I am driven by deadline. I have given up my life and I let the tyranny of urgency rules me. It dictates when I be rushing, when to pump adreline into my heart and forced to glue to my seat and get the problems resolved.

At those final countdown moments of few more days, or few more hours, I could decide to blog about it, write a poem about it or call a friend to complain. What is important does not get done !

Gardening Journal April 2015 - S3W5

Here is how my gardening has been lately.

I think about it everyday.
The kind of fruits that it should bear.
I think about how to germinate the seeds
So that it will grow to be the optimum
The best yield it can be

As I lay the seeds upon the soil
I toast and toil the soil around
Gently I stir to mix them up
Hoping to see the seeds grow

Then I have a look at the Calendar
Behold, I am running out of time
Time to harvest and show the first fruit
To the world and everyone to see

Its time to do the marketing
But alas the seeds are still buried within
Deep within the soil
I try to link up with my mind
Seeds, Soil all in my mind

I try to germinate the seeds in my mind
Toast and turn I think it through
Backward forward left and right
Spinning around I get so confused
Oh Lord, Help I am miserable

I am supposed to tell the world
The kind of fruits my seeds will yield
Long before it comes out from the buds
How am I to be sure of its fruits ?
