Mothers Day by Saccheen Laing

Mother's Day

Who was the one to hold you when your little feet couldn't go on?
Who was the one to correct you when you were doing wrong?
Where would we be without her? The one to show us the right path?
How much more difficult would life be without the wisdom she shares to you and me?

Who can love you like a mother can?
Who can place a simple kiss on your aching hand and make it like new brand?
Who can? No one can like a mother
Our nation is blessed because of the love she bestows
God has blessed her to open our eyes when they are closed
God has blessed her to provide bread and butter when the gas is nowhere to be found

Who never let you go hungry? Who made sure you had shelter from the storm?
Who but a mother?
Her forgiving spirit is like no other
Just think back to Hannah in the bible
Such pure dedication and faith
That's how strong a mothers heart can go on hoping and hoping for their little one
One faithful prayer from a mother has saved thousands of sinful souls
You ask me what is love?
Just think of your mother
How much she has done for you
And how little you have been thankful

Mothers are a special gift from God
The glue that keeps this troubled world together
(M)-Molding the future minds for a better tomorrow
(O)-Opening up our hearts to understand the real meaning of love
(T)-Touching our souls with kindness and compassion
(H)-Honestly loving us when we deserve to be frowned upon
(E)-Earnestly seeking The Lord to have mercy upon us
(R)-Relaxing our troubled spirits when we don't know which way to go
(S)-Sacrificing all they have to ensure that we have all what we need

Let's not love them just today and show them we care
Let's love them tomorrow and forever in every single way

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Be more thankful

It's so easy for us to complain it's like we do it everyday. Are we more thankful for the blessings we have no matter how small they seem? It seems to me that more than ever people are more ungrateful than they are grateful. No matter how bad things are always remember that they could be much worse. Our house isn't big so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a house. Our pay cheque is small so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a job. Our skin isn't flawless so we complain instead of be thankful that we still have our skin to protect our bodies. Our body isn't sculpted perfectly so we complain instead of being thankful that all our body parts are still functioning. Our world is very ungrateful and we can never seem to be satisfied no matter how many blessings we have. This week I ask of you to be thankful for something everyday no matter how small it may seem.

This World

A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...
