My Lord, my love, why not let meBe led by light? In pain, I yearn.Not that I seek for an escape,From the risks that I’ll need to take.All I ask, Lord, is just a ray,That can set my heart on a way.In past, You have tempted my soul,With that passion for You alone.But now, why…
At times we feel totally confused, without knowing what step to take next. In moments of indecisiveness one can find consolation if one surrenders his will to God and seeks what God wishes in one’s life.
Starting afresh in life is a tough task. Many prefer to be deaf to the whisper in the inner self that pleads for a change in the manner we conduct ourselves. Some do this as they are happy not getting into the struggle that is part of the beginning days of one’s interior transformation. This poem depicts the struggle of one’s inner self in accepting the need for self transformation in the form of a conversation between his soul and the Lord.
Everyone of us is looking for meaning in life. We attach meaning to those that seem to provide fulfillment in life. However, we often come to the realization that what we considered capable of fulfilling our life and expectations are, in reality, far below the longings of our inner being. Those of continue this pursuit might chance upon the realm of the Supernatural and suddenly realize that the experience of the Divine is “Beyond and Higher” than all what they had ever longed for. Such an experience puts one’s soul in complete rest. In such an experience there is no more longing but to perpetuate this experience, no more desires but to conform oneself to the demands of this transforming experience.

My God you know, in earnest I thirst Your fire on my moisture to act. Too fast, no not, I can’t handle, Too slow, please don’t, I may fall off. Warmth of your love expels in range All what does not conform your love. Let your fire burn, slowly, stead’ly Till I’m purged of…
Here I am on the ground, wounded and weary Stained again with what I always abhorred. “No never again,” I had resolved, Yet ever again, do i falter. But I am consoled to say, “Man is weak.” After all ‘to err is human,’ it is said. To stand apart is a burden too heavy,…
You are blessed, chosen to be a blessing I will send you to souls waiting in darkness To carry the light, the true light, the Christ And be a sign and bearer of my love. Send me Lord, sealed with your cross To the field to sow your love Help me touch…
As I walked in the light of the day, I felt sure of the truth of my way. But as night with its doubts puts me down, I do feel, no more, I have the crown. Though with pain, I can say, I know now, Joy and pain, life gives both, can’t say, ‘no.’ Ups…
