When All Means Nothing
You can have all the knowledge in the world, but it means nothing without building up the confidence to do something with it. You can have all the money in the world but it means nothing if you can't spend it wisely.

Daddy's Little Princess
She jumps from her mom to my arms,
My love for her and her love for me burns,
She gets excited when I bath her every night,
Her cuteness and honesty inspires me to write,
She's surely an angel sent from above,
She gives me hugs with a messages of love.

Worship
So what exactly is worship?
Everyone can describe it differently,
But for me it's simply just sonship, identity, doing things intentionally.
It's like a song I play with my daughter on my chest,
Like the wobbliness of her body when she's sleeping in my arms,
At that moment she surely thinks, I'm the best,
That trust in her floppy arms and body as she turns.
That's how we feel like in true worship, an exchange of open hearts,
When we honor with extravagant love and extreme submission,
Worshipping Him in different forms of art with everyone playing their parts,
We can worship anywhere and everywhere - He's given us permission.
It's when it has become a lifestyle, not just ticking off a to do list,
Going to His presence with hearts that are hungry for more,
Inviting everybody and waiting for them to see through their mist,
Standing up or lying on the floor, declaring that Jesus Christ is the door.
Pure love with no hidden agenda,
Simple yet meaningful way of loving God and one another,
Pouring our hearts out and shouting our songs in total surrender,
Enjoying the journey with a brother, sister, mother and our Father.

Stronger
What doesn't kill you make you stronger. It might hurt but you'll last longer.

She Loves Me
She waits for me by the door with a smile,
Her mum tells me, she's been there for a while,
Every breath I take is for her, it's a lifestyle,
Loving her is like when breath and body reconcile,
Over the years I've waited for this beautiful girl and it was worthwhile,
Very gently I picked her up and became a writer who's versatile,
Every moment we share can sustain us more than a mile,
She's the best thing ever, I pray to live 'till I walk her down the aisle,
Many great memories we've created, she has changed my profile,
Everyday with her starts and end with a smile.
She Loves Me

Think Ahead
There's something similar between music and a pool table game. They both require you to think ahead. In music you don't think about the note that you're singing/the chord that you're already playing but the next one. In a pool table you don't even think about the ball you're about to hit but where the white ball should go to hit the next one. A student doctor needs to think about specialising before graduating. If you're a lawyer that's working for the state, thoughts of opening your law firm should have started while you're getting your law degree. A successful musician thinks about the next album while s/he's doing the previous one. A successful author gets ideas for the next book while doing chapter one of the previous one. Now that's how you move to the next level. ✌️
