I found my feet on native grounds
where my thoughts would often dwell
for a few moments to contemplate upon
the things which came to mind
the fortress of a vast landscape
of grass immersed in green
knelt down in benediction
for the fields grew what God in Heaven administered
and so all living things sing God Elohim endless praises...

Upon the hill where the hills was wooed by the vixen wind
whose slow caressing made the fields groan with impatience
Yea, he craved her kiss but she knew, so she did not do more so this
which made the fields frustrate even more so that he persistent more in sweet praises
and veneration
still the maiden young and pretty
virgin bod and virgin lips
her hair thrills the summer winds
for her curls were robustly red and gingery
her eyes were anchored in sea of ocean green
the kind of beauty which is seldom seen
for in her heart was greater beauty which is often overlooked by most living breathing beings

While the clouds above had gathered in a flock
in the presence of the Lord
Who, in God the Holy Spirit sends them to pasture wide
they wear their cassocks proud, for they remain a chastely white
they sing praises while in procession by to cast their nets far and wide
The fields where the sheep had grazed
was where poetic licensed lazed
oh under the shade of a flowered and fruited tree
was a diminutive figure whose features are roughly hew
and that of course was me

I shook the strands of gold
which tried to latch itself upon both my shoulders
as it shrugged with disappointment but sulked nearby anyway
and beckoned the butterfly and flowers lain there
to comfort it by means of frolic and play

I saw a tree in the middle of the field
which round its presence were flowers of every sort
they bloomed near its large and widened feet
which were barks and firm branches of a very shady tree.
The queer thing was this, that the flowers were like sweetened fruit
they prophesied a delicious outcome but not even a sliver of fleshy fruit had emerged
thus did not succumb
still the tree continued to try despite of what the other trees were whispering about

The tree whispered to me
which was the least of what I expect
to hear in the middle of a quiet afternoon

he said ;
"Psst! Here what I have to say
for you and I have much to learn
for now be humble and listen to my part
that my words be like seed planted in your heart

I am not a young sprout tree
whose seed had come just recently
but I have been planted three and a half years ago
by a Sower Who had planted me where you see me now

Before He put me in
He held me close towards the skin
of His rose petal soft pair of lips
and I heard Him whisper this;

Lo, dear one, o of My Heavenly Father's seed
see here I now plant thee
and in My planting thee
that you may bear good fruits from which I hope for you to sow and reap
be careful what comes to offer you
an easier and quicker way to grow
for none can learn any lesson
if he does not discover it by efforts of his and his own self

While you lay planted here today
be wary to what I have to say
the devil and his henchmen
shall try to pluck you away from Me
but see I shall not leave you defending all alone
upon you I shall give you grace and mercy
in addition to the two of these, you shall also have My saving, undying and generous love and protection

I shall gather all whom My Heavenly Father calls
and I shall shelter you in My Good and Shepherd wings
I am God most high Elohim
with Me you shall fear nothing
while the birds of the air shall sing thee song
and the butterflies come complementing thee with kisses
stand firm and do not be swayed to grow the easy way
for that is how flowers are easily uprooted
be brave o little one
for I shall indeed be your divine and eternal sun
I Who am God the Son...is with God the Spirit and God the Father
I am the most perfect love and God's most happy offer
that sinners may be reconciled
and they shall mourn no more
that all shall come to know
that I alone am Christ the Saviour, Lord and God

I am the way, the truth and life
for none can find Salvation lest only from the One Whom the Heavenly Father send to prophecy
it is I Lord Jesus Christ
the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
yes the God of Gods
I am the One to fear
above all others like superior like kings and queens
for man can strip another of his dignity, and mortal flesh and pride
but he can do no further to soul nor spirit
it is I alone that can
cast any soul or spirit of he already himself condemns
of his remorseless way of life

So now the thing is this
I've been waiting for this tree to bear fruits...
I've sought counsel with others whom I have employed to plant
and all have said the same thing

'The tree you see before you
cannot bear any kind of fruit
the flowers have neither nectar nor beauty to offer
would you rather I chop it down for You, O Good Master?'

Then I walked around it once
and looked long and hard at it
the tree had begged me "Master, Lord and God Jesus
have mercy on me
I have naught but four seasons roll by once, and perhaps another which is twice
But Lord God have mercy on me and let me try one more time
to bear you some good and sweetened fruit."

Then I looked at him and thought for a really long time
then I looked at him and said;
"Sure why not I'll give you some more time!"
The tree said "Thank You, kind Master, I shall treasure your kind gesture
and when the first fruits come bearing I shall praise Your Most Holy Sovereign name
from age, to age to age."

Then Jesus smiled and said to me
which startled me and of course the tree
"You are no different from the tree
for you are also seed unto Me
My Father is the sower
and indeed in your Heavenly Father I sow His seed
which is also Mine
Whom I reign with the Heavenly Father and Holy Spirit as Divine and Holy Trinity
Three in essence and in Divine Union One for endless ages,

Each seed which I have scattered
are deep in the depths of the earth
now contemplate on this
are you deeply rooted upon the world's delights
or are you rooted in Me, your Lord and God Jesus Christ?

Each season I shall come
and check your tree, branches, barks and bough
I shall shake the leaves you grow
and examine you for even a small morsel of sweet fruit to eat
if you do not bear any
I shall shake My head
but I shall not cut you, oh no. Not yet.
For I am patience, I am grace, I am mercy and in you I give you My love and unrelenting faith
and believe you shall come through

It's judgement day shall come
for though some may arrive seasons earlier
but when I do come a second time
I shall not give you time any more
I shall see if you tried with sincerity
and if you tried with compassion and mercy giving
most importantly if you tried to ever try at all
the single piece of morsel
no matter how small it may appear to be
sincerity and consistent persistent faith in trying because you love and believe in Me
shall merit you most tremendously
for man does not enter Heaven
for his own mortal virtues
He enters Heaven because he believes in Me
and My grace, love and mercy
Whoever lives and depends on Me
and strives to abide in what I've said and taught
Oh in My grace, love and mercy
He shall find his soul comforted

Yea, man cannot achieve anything
unless I Yahweh God am with him
I am with all who call upon My name
for I shall hear him and I shall save

Happy the man who dies in good grace
and his sins all forgiven in My sight
happy the man who dies in My good grace
he shall dwell forever in My divine and holy face
he shall rejoice in Kingdom Heaven
with the angels and all Godly creatures in dominion
yes I shall robe him with white majesty
as co-heir of My Passion and Cross victory

So consider this then, friend
for in you rests My favor and your name each time I recommend
to the Father Who is in Heaven
that we may be reunited once again

Be strong and stout of faith
do not wander astray
I shall be with you all the way
do not be afraid

I shall make you bear good fruit
only if you surrender all to Me
and believe that in you I shall work all My glorious and Heavenly wonders
for each of you are My joy, boast and pleasure

Now try again, stand up and walk
be healed and sin no more
be the fruit that bears good fruit
for indeed I shall come again

You are Mine and I am yours
now and forever more
alas for he who denies Me now for he shall be
weeping and gnashing his teeth

Pray for endurance, patience and grace humility
I shall make you bear fruit in good time
like the tree you see before you
I do not give up on it
and neither shall I ever give up on you

try, get up and walk again
go in peace and sin no more
try and be firmly rooted as sound a tree
that you may bear good fruit in the next season
try, get up and walk again
go in peace and sin no more

Try again.

Luke 13:6-9

a result of emotional pain...

Actually am doing MUCH better thanks to Jesus and Mother Mary for intercession. Also my counselor and good friend. Praise God indeed.

When I left for the bus station it was drizzling so I pulled up the hood of my hoodie. When I had arrived at the bus terminal, suddenly it poured and the winds howled like crazy. At that time I was still sitting at the bench, wondering if the bus to deliver us to the LRT (Subway) station would arrive, then the rain became heavier. I got up as my jeans were all wet. I walked towards a much drier area where a small group of people were. There I stood and found my heart began to say the Hail Mary...

As I recited, the winds died down and the rain did too. Then a bus had pulled in but did not leave immediately. The bus driver wasn't the one who drove people to my usual stop so I had not really put much hope. But ten minutes later, he came back and I was the first person he asked "Are you going to the LRT Station at Kelana Jaya?" and I was like "yeah." Then he asked the group of people whom I was with, "How many people are going to Kelana Jaya?" Then suddenly, a handful of people murmured yes. Then he said "I will drop you outside the station instead of going in okay?" then we all said okay. and he drove us, as we arrived at the station, the rain subsided almost completely.

Thank You Jesus and Mother Mary.

My mum was in her usual ranting and I was talking to my counselor so here is the result.
