Rekindle and Rejoice

It's a Sunday evening in my part of the world and I am just starting to write a blog after hearing a sermon preached by Mark Hughes, Lead Pastor of Church of the Rock. I pondered much about this whole ' RE-CALIBRATE ' topic and how much I wanted to dodge the fact that it was talking to me but I could not. Instead I was consumed by the four bullet points he talked about, which are as below: Re-Joice in the Lord Re-Connect with your relationships Re-Engage in your mission(s) Re-Imagine your future For many of us living in times of uncertainties, where  new restrictions  are shoved in our faces every couple of weeks, constant fluctuations on the number of active cases curve, watching Federal & Provincial governments battle each other and health officials giving us mixed cues about cross vaccinations and even which vaccines are fully acceptable.

The Green Pasture

There lies a green pasture, overflowing with the streams of love Mercy and kindness endureth forever, in his arms He will shield me. He took me out of the miry clay, molded me into a vessel With the Holy spirit, my cup runneth over. A moment of sorrow deep down, overcome by the ray of hope He fills me with Unraveling mysteries day by day adding blend of compassion everyday. And there lies a green pasture, which passeth a man's understanding. Prepared for the righteous and meek, for the endeavor I have to undertake.                                              - PeeJay
