Letter to Heaven

One day I traveled through a thought lane, I said to myself that if I can write letters to my friends,if I can send short message service to my parents.

If I can post what's on my mind on the social network, then I should be able to do the same to Daddy.

This is the letter I wrote to God...

Dear God,

If today I shift my focus from you, please remind me that I should continue looking at You; the author and the finisher of my faith.

If today I fall into sin, please remind me that your love is everlasting for me.

If today I face temptations that seem bigger than my capacity, please remind me that I can't be tempted more than I can handle.

If today I lose my hope,please remind me that a living dog is better than a dead lion.

If today I'm in dire need, please remind me that the young lions do suffer but those that loves you will not suffer any good thing.

If today my expectations are fading off, please remind me that the expectations of the righteous can't be cut short.

If today I refuse to control my tongue, please remind me that life and death lies in the tongue.

If today I face disappointment, please remind me that all things are working together for my goods.

If today I want to go my own way according to my flesh, please remind me that those that are lead by the Spirit are the sons of God.

If today satan wants to cheat me,please remind me that I've been given the power and the authority to tread upon serpents and all the powers of the evil ones.

If today I misrepresent your kingdom,please remind me that I should be an example of a believer in words,conversation,purity and charity.

If today I refuse to love my neighbour,please remind me that it's the greater love you have for me that made you sacrificed your life.

If today I stop acting in faith, please remind me that without faith I can't please you.

If today I keep malice with people,please remind me that I must purse peace and holiness with all men.

If today I can't understand my situation,please remind me that to every thing there's a purpose for it.

ALL I HAVE LEFT IS MEMORIES

Strange voices, strange voices i heard calling
Unpleasant stories in my ears ringing
Noises that 'he's gone, he's gone'
Who? He that was for greatness born
He has gone into the world for good
Making noise fill the neighbourhood
Friend like no other,
One who will forever be my friend
He who has always been my confidant
Such friendship my heart long hungered for and still wants.

Echoes, timeless echoes of voices of the past
Pictures of gone moments, but how long will they last?
For thats what you left behind - memories
Yesterday feels so much like past centuries
So much a strong bond you've created
Such that can never be outdated
Friends will come, friends will go,
But none will ever be like you - how i loved you so
Now i look back on these years
And all i see dripping on my book are tears.

Undying, undying will the love i have for you be
Numerous years of friendship in future i hope to see
Days of recounting old tales
Will we see if breath never fails
But now that you are here no more,
Every pleasure seems to be a bore
No soothing word seems to stimulate
No word of comfort dost placate
Now all that used to be interesting
Seems to be nothing and never alluring.

News, news only do i hear from you
News i hear seems scary and powerful
That another might take my place
That you'll remember our friendship no more at a gaze
Oh, how i think so naughtily
Blame me not, your absence has made me like a baby
But little did I know about the depth of our togetherness
Which must have led to oneness
Farewell now, farewell friend as you go,
Te quierro y adios mi amigo.
TO MY FRIEND AND BROTHER WHO LEFT FOR GREENER PASTURES,

 Babatunde Oluwaseun Owolabi. .

Victory Signs

When you keep on fightin'
After you lost your strength That's the sign of a victory

When darkness is all around you
You still find your way
That's the sign of a victory

When you keep giving without expecting returns
That's the sign of a victory

When you forgive the wrongs
Though,painful and hurtful
That's the sign of a victory

When you share your widow's mite
Especially,with the helpless
That's the sign of a victory

When you doubt your path
Just to be sure you're on the right track
That's the sign of a victory

When you question your origin
Wanting to know about your being,
That's the sign of a victory

When you felt cheated and deprived
But you never know how and why
That's the sign of a victory

When you sing harmoniously within,
Even without a single beat
That's the sign of a victory

When the hinges of doors of opportunity screeches
That's the sign of a victory

When the sun seemingly appealing and warming,
That's the sign of a victory.

When the sky seemingly near
It doesn't matter where you're standing
That's the sign of a victory

When you finally see a Hand in the cloud,
After several quest.
That's the sign of a victory
When you read this and feel inspired
That's the sign of a victory

When you smile without an explicit reasons,
That's the sign of a victory

When you're expectant despite the odds,
That's the sign of a victory

Love , joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance.
That's the sign of a victory

When you're standing with God
That's the sign of a victory.
Till I cross your path again,remember to make a difference....‪#‎Rawfacts‬.

It's KNOWN to me alone!!!

It's known to me alone
The reason why I smile amidst of pain,
the reason why I cry amidst of joy,
the reason why I talk amidst of silence,
the reason why I keep mute amidst of conversation,
the reason why giggle amidst of trials,
the reason why I chuckle amidst of disappointment,
the reason why i'm wobbling amidst of crowd.

It's known to me ALONE
the reason why I kept my distance when I ought to draw near,
the reason why I don't want to argue when I'm at fault,
the reason why I bow in humility when I'm praised,
the reason why my smile seems odd,
the reason why my tears are dripping uncontrollably,
the reason why my appearance seems scarce,
the reason why my voice sounds faintly,
the reason why my behaviour is bizzare.

It's known to me ALONE the reason why I wrote this,
It's known to me ALONE the only reason I'm yet to tell you the reason,
It's known to me ALONE the reason why I won't give up,never,I won't so far HE is still in Heaven.

Till I cross your path again,remember you're created to make a difference...#Rawfacts.

It Matters Not!!!

I thought it matters
sooner I realized it would soon shatter
The faster I run,
The more I long for it,
the more I get burnt.
Sometimes it seems so near
Honestly it was never near

I want them all
Its coming in so small
I want to fill it with my hall
Sadly they are all making me fall
What if I get the heavenly call?
Anytime,Anywhere,even in a mall.

I attached much importance
To a thing of insignificance
And taking to its cognizance
I need not to be in a trance
Before I start to prance.

Teach thou me,yea your will
Please, I'm on my kneel
From my toes to my heel
I want to be smooth like eel

Jesus be the center of it all
Nothing else matters
Nothing else without you
From my heart to the Heaven
Jesus be the center
Let it be all about YOU.

I want Your eyes to be my eyes
Your ears to be my ears
Your passion to be my passion
Your will to be my will
Take my life,mold it...
Take my will,transform it.
To You oh Lord I surrender.
Jesus,lead me,guide me,direct me
Lord be my anchor,
I surrender myself.
I give my life away so you can use me;
Wholly,completely,permanently and purposefully.

This is my confession
This is my proclamation
That You're now my ALL in ALL.
Amen.
Till I cross your path again,remember you're created to make a difference...#Rawfacts.

From My Inner Man

Wait,This Is For You Alone...
There are moments I'd think I'm alone;
There are times I was really lonely but not alone.

Circumstances makes things around us different,
Sometimes we don't have enough will power to escape it all.

The best times in life are the times we tend for people passionately,
The worst times are the season we are left to fend for ourselves.

Things would go wrong,it could go worse but remember it won't last long.
It's only but a fleeting moments of trials that comes to test our faith.

I've learnt not to put all hope on humans but first in God;
I've learnt not to trust alone in my power but wholly rely on His dictates.

I'd hate to put blames on people,though, some contributed to my retributions;
Happily I realized they never all meant it for evil but to teach me lessons of life.

Soonest it dawned on me that when people wrong me,
It's not me,it's not them, it's life!

I wish I could daub this words in your heart forever,
I wish I could put it in your mouth without getting sour.

I wish I could hang it on the wall without getting stale
I wish I could tell you in one sentence that I miss you.
I wish I could say and all I'm saying is God still cares for your YOU,friend...#Rawfacts
