May our quilts be threadbare

On Judgement Day my angel was sewing,
the quilt of Life.
Tattered and torn
Filled with giant holes,
Ragged pieces of cloth threadbare
empty like binding air.
Tears welled up in eyes.


Other tapestries were filled with colour
and the hues of worldly fortune.
But mine was threadbare.


Finally the Time came,
the scrutiny of Truth.
Each life to be displayed.
Angel nodded for me to rise,
gaze dropped to the ground in shame.
No earthly fortunes to show
only love and laughter.
Lots of trials and temptations to quit.
Often been held up to ridicule, humiliation, enduring painfully.
Offering to Him in hope that,
I would not melt beneath the judgemental gaze,
who unfairly judged me


Slowly lifted up the quilt,
an awe filled gasp filled the air.
Light flooded the many holes,
and became the face of my Beloved.
He said, "each point of Light in your quilt,
shows when you stepped aside,
and let Me shine through
Until there was more of Me than there was of you."


May all our quilts be threadbare and worn,
to shine our Beloved's face ever more.

LET IT GO.........

There are people who can walk away from you. And hear me when I tell you this! When people can walk away from you: let them walk.

I don't want you to try to talk another person into staying with you, loving you, calling you, caring about you, coming to see you, staying attached to you. I mean hang up the phone. When people can walk away from you let them walk. Your destiny is never tied to anybody that left.

The Bible said that, they came out from us that it might be made manifest that they were not for us. For had they been of us, no doubt they would have continued with us. [1 John 2:19]

People leave you because they are not joined to you. And if they are not joined to you, you can't make them stay.

Let them go.

And it doesn't mean that they are a bad person it just means that their part in the story is over. And you've got to know when people's part in your story is over so that you don't keep trying to raise the dead.

You've got to know when it's dead.

You've got to know when it's over. Let me tell you something. I've got the gift of good-bye. It's the tenth spiritual gift, I believe in good-bye. It's not that I'm hateful, it's that I'm faithful, and I know whatever God means for me to have He'll give it to me. And if it takes too much sweat I don't need it. Stop begging people to stay.

Let them go!!

If you are holding on to something that doesn't belong to you and was never intended for your life, then you need to . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to past hurts and pains . . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If someone can't treat you right, love you back, and see your worth . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If someone has angered you . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to some thoughts of evil and revenge . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you are involved in a wrong relationship or addiction . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you are holding on to a job that no longer meets your needs or talents . . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you have a bad attitude . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep judging others to make yourself feel better . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you're stuck in the past and God is trying to take you to a new level in Him . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you are struggling with the healing of a broken relationship . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you keep trying to help someone who won't even try to help themselves . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If you're feeling depressed and stressed . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

If there is a particular situation that you are so used to handling yourself and God is saying "take your hands off of it," then you need to . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

Let the past be the past Forget the former things. GOD is doing a new thing for 2007!!!

LET IT GO!!!

Get Right or Get Left. think about it, and then . . . . . . . .

LET IT GO!!!

"The Battle is the Lord's!"..................

my glorious gift

wonder what will be my gift from Him in this festive season?
coming back to innocence?
a loving heart?
a pure soul?
or wealth? health? happiness?
doll of dust could not think beyond .............

Beloved held my face in His blessed hands,
and whispered 'I give Myself to you My precious'
the time stood still,
heart stopped for a moment,
He smiled gently into my eyes,
the universe radiated His glory,
could hear the chanting of mantra ,
divine hymn,
sound of conch shells,
ringing of bells,
prayer came true ............. my wildest dream.....
The King of Kings came to me ,
as my glorious gift........


EID MUBARAK to all.......

dedicated to Sadiq

His bounty falling as rain.................

For tonight a secret emerges out of silence,

when i will sit still with myself,

waiting for Him.

A lovely song echoes quietly in the night sky.

moving from one star to the other.

Like a Divine call............................

will i see it?....feel it?....tonight.....

His bounty falling as rain .............

Empty circle

Hold on to nothing
that circles
the world's things.



Then the large,
empty circle,
can grow and grow
enlarging ,widening
and embracing all.

Beloved is here

the table is spread
come hungry ones,come thirsty ones
fruits,sweets and dates and cool drinks......plentyful
the light is lit......in four corners
warm and full,
luminous and shining....
Beloved is here.
Unseen,Ever present,the most Beautiful.

the table is a mirror,
look and reflect.
listen to your starving body......
what has our feasting soul learnt?
what are the secrets you've shared?
watch the multiverse circling.......within the Divine Verse
don't rush....dearest don't rush,
you may miss the moment in which the Love glows......

the emerald green meadow
blooming,shining ,blossoming for Him.

discover the secret of the Holy month,
Ramadan Mubarak........Ramadan Mubarak

turns my heart into a fragrant flower.
drenched in the rain shower of Divine Love
and one day will get a dip in the ocean .
