A Day with Dad

God, can i call you Dad?
Too funny to ask late when you’ve been for years.
When I cry, you dry my tears. When I giggle, you chuckle.
When I sing, I know what you are thinking.

But you are careful for me to know.
Dad, there are lots of things I want to say.
Things that you know I will cry about.
But every time I want to start

You send some jazz for me to listen to,
Give me thoughts to write about,
films that I long to see, pasta that I crave for,
an apple juice to quench my thirst.

And then again I want to start with you.
But you give me books to ponder on,
a wading pool to hear children laugh,
and watch adults float looking at the sky,

Same situation. You put them in water, instead.
I understand why you evade my way.
If you talk to me. You need to talk to all. You have never been unfair.
This time, you send me to Shang for groceries.

But you have never turned lead into gold.
C902 is fast enough to get your msg:
Not only Gold can feed the hungry.
Back home, you send me chores to keep the pad a ” wow”.

At the hallway, you send people to swarm around the little boy.
I insist.Let’s talk.
With lights out and everything is peaceful, I fall asleep.
You wake me up and ask: ” What is it again that you want us to talk about?”.

Oh no Dad, I just want to thank you for the day. Can I go back to sleep now?
“Okay, you may. Let me just bless you again for another day."

Just a penny for your thoughts

It is never a fantasy to think of God as your back up who will stand not just with you but for you when other people, the surrounding environment, and situations aim to put you down.
Most especially if everything appears to look fine in the eyes of the people but some foul play of silent harassment is being orchestrated which only the target knows and feels, then expect God to bring divine justice in your life and attack your opponents with your hands remaining clean. Surely, these could be shocking to others who think that it was you who wronged. As these could be inevitable like a destined battle in one's life which could be anything, God tried his very best effort for his hurting child to feel less of the burden he is carrying and less of the pain he is feeling by showering the person with his blessing and love.


Give thanks to him who is making me proud and arrogant over my enemies. And give thanks to him who is making me so gentle over people who are

sincerely loving me and whose minds are not corrupted by some people who act in behalf of others who are after revenge. God is the real FATHER whose aim is not to punish, whose aim is not corrupt minds, whose aim is not to discipline or give lesson just like what others thought. He is a FATHER who only wants to love HIS children who loves Him, no matter what!

Take it from me, some people got envious and threatened because in my poverty, they thought that I was rich and in my weakness, they saw me very strong! Give thanks to God when all I have to do is to close my eyes and talk to him and before I knew it, he had already stricken my detractors. Most of the time, he doesn't listen to my words because just like anyone, I can show him a list of the things I want to have-- a list that is no match to Santa's. What my heavenly FATHER usually does is HE searches my heart and in just a wink of an eye gives whatever it asks-- be it material things or destruction of my enemies. No worries to anything like that! When these bitter people connive against me during the time that my heart was beating good for them, that was the very same time that my feet were off the ground and my proud head could not even look down. Yes, that was the time when the FATHER carried me.
