Just Because

 How much do I love you?

Let me count the ways.

I love you like I love no other. This I promise you from my heart.

I love the sweetness of your smile, as it caresses my face, on a warm and sunny day.

I love the way you move, as you sweep across every path, with footsteps that have been ordered by the Lord.

I love the gentleness of your hands, as it charts a course across my body, in ecstasy.

I love the stillness of your silence, because it speaks with a million voices, just for me.

I love the tenderness of your kiss, as it tingles and sends shivers down my spine, in warmth and unchecked passion.

I love the way you hold me in your arms, and dance me across the floor, with limbs and hearts touching in deep connection. 

I love the way your words tell a story, as you open up your heart and lavish me, with hope and faith and favour.

I love the way your eyes penetrate the depths of my soul, and see beyond what others cannot see.

I love the taste of your scent, in my nostrils as it permeates the atmosphere around me, even in my dreams.

I love lying next to you, as you wrap your arms around me and keep me protected from all harm.

I love the way, you call me up on the phone, just to ask me if I am okay, when I am alone.

I love the way you rush into my arms, when you come home, even if I am messed up and looking unkept.

I love the way you cover me, in prayer and worship, as we build our family altar.

I love the way, you take responsibility for your actions, and do not blame others for your failures.

I love the way you seek Godly counsel and wisdom, to know how to be a loving husband, after the Lord's own heart.

I love the way you put God first in all things and everything.

I love the way you make me feel, just by being near.

I love the gentle man you are, without fear and favour, within and without, 

I love the joining of our love for each other, in word, in thought and in deed.

I love the feel of your lips across my eyes, as you kiss away my every tear, when I am broken and filled with despair.

I love you.... JUST BECAUSE.

Remember

Image
 When you feel like giving up. When you feel like your back is against the wall. Don't loose your focus. Don't worry about what tomorrow brings. Someone is praying for you. Someone is interceding to God on your behalf. You are not standing alone. When you feel like all hope is gone. Your answer is just a prayer away. The times when you feel lost... Know that you are found. When darkness surrounds you... Remember you are the light of the world. If at times you feel like your taste for praise is disappearing.... Remember you are the salt of the earth. When battles come... Know that the Lord is fighting for you. You have already won. When you don't know where your next meal is coming from... Remember that there is a table prepared before you, even in the presence of your enemies. When you feel discouraged... Remember that the arms of the Lord is around you.  When your children are disobedient... Remember that the Lord will create in them a clean heart and renew a right spirit

Like A Babbling Fool

Image
I say I love you, but my words do not.. I shout with glee, like a shining pot. My eyes grow dim, to the sights I see.. For my actions speaks louder, than who I was born to be. Like a tinkling symbol, I make much noise.. To be seen and heard, so I can rejoice. From the rising of the sun, till it sets in the west.. I loose the chance, to win each test. Often I would say, I am a child of God.. Howbeit my senses, are ruled by discord. Like a slave in captivity, I am bound in chains.. For the pride in my heart, is a block to my stains. I am my own weapon, that is fighting against me.. Consumed and conformed, to the crushing to be free. I speak to the wind, like a babbling fool.. For the mote in my eye, is the devil's own tool. I lost my identity, in the pride of life.. Like a fox in the henhouse, I divorced my wife. I laughed at five loaves and two fishes, in the desert.. For a servant's heart, was distant at my birth. Where honour is given, I laugh it to scorn.. For the council I

Behold, Thou Art Fair

Image
 You will walk down the aisle, as a beautiful bride.. A sight to behold, into arms open wide. The tears you have cried, fell in pots of pure gold.. As the scent of perfume, changed your weary old soul. From before you were born, you were chosen by God.. To radiate the sun, as a treasure to afford. Your gown of snow white, with a veil of pure silk.. Will sanctify your splendor, like heaven's own milk. Behold, thou art fair, oh beloved of the Lord.. With myrrh on your fingers, you are shadowed by a sword. Rise up like roses, at the dawn of the day.. For the glory of your husband, will be your strength and your stay. Into the closet and behind closed doors.. Your honeymoon will eclipse, as your intertwining soars.. A fountain of gardens, watered and free.. Will be your sapphire, for your eyes to see. Look forth tomorrow, when you will both touch.. With feather-like droplets, where grace is so much. Beauty as a rainbow, you will set as a seal.. For the presence of your flaming, will ev
