THE PRODIGAL SON


I am sharing a poem from my latest book, GOD- FEARING ONES: POEMS THAT INSPIRE

THE PRODIGAL SON

Jesus told a parable to his disciples and followers,

About a young son who asked his father for his inheritance.

Leaving his father and older brother, he set off for a distant country,

And squandered all of his wealth wildly.

 

 

After spending every cent of his money,

A severe famine occurred in the country.

Being in dire need, he sought a job for his survival,

He was sent to a citizen’s field to feed pigs, and endured starvation.

 

He recollected when he finally regained his sense,

Even his father’s hired servants had food in excess.

While he, in a strange place was starving to death.

He decided to return to his Father’s home and repent.

 

So he got up and made his way to his father in the morning.

From a long way off, his father saw him coming.

His father was filled with compassion for him.

He ran to his son, threw his arms around him. and kissed him.

 

The son said, he had sinned against his father and heaven,

And was no longer worthy to be called his son.

The father turned to his servants and said to dress him.

Put on the best robe and sandals, and on his finger put a ring.

 

He told them to go out and kill the fatted calf

So they could have a feast and celebrate with the staff.

For his young son was dead and was alive again.

He thought he was lost, but he found him.

.

When the older son who was in the field went home,

Heard loud music and dancing, and he asked what was going on.

A servant replied that his brother returned safe and sound.

And his father was celebrating because his son was lost and found.

 

The older brother became angry and refused to go in.

So his father went out and pleaded with him.

He told his father that for all the years he never disobeyed him and slaved.

He never gave him even a young goat to celebrate.

 

He killed the fatted calf for the son who wasted his life-saving.

The father consoled the older son saying he was always there for him,

For him, he was leaving everything, but he had a reason for celebrating,

Because his brother was lost and was found again.

 

The parable of the prodigal son is a lesson for us,

On the importance of repentance and forgiveness.

God's love for us does not depend on our faithfulness;

God loves us unconditionally, no matter how far we stray from Him.

 

Though we may be sinful and unrighteous,

He is always willing to take us back and forgive us.

To all His children who show that they need Him.

God, Our Heavenly Father, will always be faithful and loving.

LET US CREATE A PEACEFUL WORLD


 

LET US CREATE A PEACEFUL WORLD

Books on Peace in a Chaotic World
We all dream of living in a peaceful world
When we have inner peace, only then can we live in peace with other people.
When we live peacefully in our families, with neighbours, in our cities, and in our society, then can we transmit peace to neighbouring countries and beyond.
It is not possible to change everything in the world, but if our hearts and minds are focused on peaceful things we will achieve peace around us.
We can achieve inner peace by spending time with nature, meditating, giving thanks, and taking responsibility for our actions.
Never let mistakes discourage you. Declutter your mind and your space. Be content whatever your situation. Never give up, love yourself, and honour and praise God daily for your blessings.
Both books, PEACE BEGINS WITH US and CREATING A BETTER WORLD, contain Poetic Verses on Peace, Love, and Humanity, written by 148 international poets. Their poetry establishes the fact that peace isn’t far away but nearer than we think. The verses ignite the light that hovers around several areas in our daily lives, calling for the signature of peace to be appended for the advancement of humanity.
These books should form part of your home library.

BREAK THE SILENCE AND SPEAK UP AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

 


BREAK THE SILENCE AND SPEAK UP AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE


No one should have to endure the abuse of another human being.

We are all made equal in the eyes of God.

BREAK THE SILENCE VOLUME  ONE AND TWO  were written by almost 200 International poets of the How to Write for Success Literary Network
Together these poets have used their pens to raise their voices against Domestic Violence.
The first issue of this anthology was published in March 2020. From the feedback received, it brought relief to many victims of domestic violence. 
With the onslaught of Covid 19 and the extended lockdowns, Domestic Violence started to rise again. 
We believe that persons in abusive situations must speak out against this menace in our society, and as writers, we will support them.
Together we can break the Silence and give Domestic Violence a Voice.
.
The feature article in Volume One, by the former Moderator of the Presbyterian Church in Trinidad and Tobago, Right Reverend Joy Abdul – Mohan gives Biblical views.
It is the hope of the prolific poets that these books will save the lives of many who are undergoing such brutal attacks from so-called loved ones

Read a five-star review from an Amazon Reviewer:
“Great Motivational Read!
What can I say about "Retirement Is Fun?"
It's a book that gives the good and the bad of living in this 21st century.
There are incredible miracles and incredible heartbreaks, yet through it all with the support of family and faith in God, we prevail.
The author wrote the story as it occurred, with no frills or embellishments.
She takes the reader along with her to the many places she visited.
Her obvious enjoyment of them is a testament to her wonderful spirit.
The book is written in two parts.
I was happy the author gives us the good news in the first half, that way, the reader is able to see her strength and appreciate from whence she came.
I was impressed with the places she had visited.
I'd thought I was a world traveler, but I take my hat off to her and her wonderful family.
This is a great motivational and inspirational story for anyone who needs uplifting.”

THE SOUL WILL GIVE AN ACCOUNT TO GOD.



THE SOUL WILL GIVE AN ACCOUNT TO GOD.

This extract is taken from one of the books I have written, YOUR TIME IS NOW.

“When we are born into this world, we come with nothing except a body and soul. When we die, our bodies remain on the ground and our souls return to God. Our souls are not our minds. Our minds are concerned about survival on Earth. The Soul is the aspect of us that is non-physical and belongs to God. The soul will give an account to God about what we were in this Life.

The soul is not concerned about the worldly things of this life. True, we live according to world standards to achieve the most comfortable way of life while we are here on earth.

Having a good education, a great job, and a lovely house, are not our real purposes in life. When one awakens to one’s soul and connects with one’s soul, one will start to live from the agenda of one’s soul.  Only then will one find one’s purpose in Life.”
