Book Excerpts from
Speak the Truth: Words, Thoughts & Desires
Speak the Truth
Lies rolled off their tongues
bearing hurt and false witness
Conscience tucked away
blinded by lies and hard truth
evading discovery
Take off the blindfolds
Try seeking the highest truth
Your outlook will change
Truth awaits your arrival
and you can’t keep truth waiting
What is the real truth?
Just an outward expression
of an inside thing
The truth lies in all of us
Think it! Live it! Speak the Truth!
Grace
I am so amazed
by you and how you pulled me
through showed me favor
even when I didn’t deserve
your great gifts you still blessed me
Without you I was
so lost, alone and depressed
Just doing things wrong
Behind closed doors living life
in shame, denial and fear
But you still loved me
even when I didn’t act
right or heed your voice
It was you who carried me
and held me through the pain
Familiar friends let
me down and told my struggles
for people to judge
but you granted me your grace
an indispensable gift
You came for me when
treasured friends were too busy
No one except you
could do what you did for me
with unconditional love
I never knew true
friendship until I gave you
my heart that June day
All that I am and will be
is because of you and your
amazing grace…
Against All Odds
(Tanka)
It’s time to take charge
of your life and destiny.
Allow yourself to
stretch considerably.
Go against all odds and dream…
