All you, my Lord!

In all walks of life,
at all places
at all times
Its all you, my Lord!

Oh my dear and compassionate Lord!
You allowed very many sufferings in my life
only to give your prized love
At the end of my triumph over each one of them!

I looked at the assortment of flowers!
Each carrying the same honey!
My Lord!
Even if I ask a solitary Rose
You give me a Rose Garden!

My Life time!

Oh my Christ, my Jesus!
I divided my lifetime into three!

Times I slept
Times a many I wasted
Times in between
where I lived for you, momentarily!

Oh God!
Today I realized..
In my whole lifetime,
The times I really lived
were only a few moments.

My Christ!
I sat still and alone.
And the waves of thoughts
subsided at last.
Peace reigned supreme.
My Lord!
I meditated upon your compassion!

The thorns of Self-centeredness
metamorphosed into
beautiful flowers of altruism
Humbleness hemming in,
It has won over my vanity!

Worried heart has
transformed to
centers of tranquility!

By your clemency,
A completely new life for me!

A feeling of having
solved the puzzle of life!

Even if I die at this very moment,
I shall reach your laps. I am sure.

I live for you
in Joy ever!

I will come unto you. It's Certain.
So, the thought of death too
is Jubilation!

My Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

Whatever I ask, you give the same with Boundless Delight
and in the Joy infinite which unfolds in me,
You Rejoiceoh my Ever-Compassionate Lord! MY Jesus!

Everything is yours; I know that for sure.
Then what can i give in return, my Lord!
My eyes are Soaked in Deep Gratitude!

My Lord!You gave me joy in multitudes
but I did not rejoice over it even a single day!
But when you dropped just one speck of sorrow
I fell flat, from great heights, totally flustered!

You filled with light, my eyes drought.
And embraced me with a warm kiss
To Resurrect and rejuvenate me!

Let all forsake me. I care not.
When you are by my side always
then who else do I need, my Almighty?

Wonderful!

Waxing or Waning,
The moon that retains its nature!

Extracting from earth,
The Sun, which gives it back as rain!

Filth and dirt,
the water that cleans it off!

Heats, chills and rains,
those beautiful mountains
and trees, which selflessly bear them!

Hosts of black clouds visiting and departing.
Yet, that t beautiful sky which retains its color azure

Without getting hooked onto the fragrance of an orchid,
Without getting extinguished by the foul-smell of filth,
Swimming past all and Enduring everything
The breeze that continues its journey!

Christ, the Lord!
By this never-ending list of wonders,
the beauty of your creation
teaches a thousand!

Heavenly Father, Lord!

Does each word give just a mere solitary meaning?
Oh No! Each one holds a tremendous power in it!

The moment I uttered "Jesus Christ!" you came unto me
And, as my thought, deed, friendship, love
as such everything, became yours!

You extracted me to the world of light
from the nadirs of darkness,
To offer light to the groping many!

If not for reforming one's hearts,
what is the use of grace?
Crores and Crores of hymns to you, my Lord,
You have given me the divine task of
providing Reformation and Re-formation!
