Spark to Flame ️
In the core of every spirit, extending deep within,
Breathes a spark that burns divine, protected from man’s sin.
A brilliant perfect spark, beautiful and grand,
Impervious to harm by man’s destructive hand.
Remembering it’s always there, to nurture back with tender care;
A place where one can always start, to heal a body, soul and heart.
It cannot be extinguished by man’s abuse or shame.
Only love can touch it, restoring spark to flame.

A Soul To Love And Bless
A falsehood you’re unworthy; a lie that you are less;
Truth that you will always be a soul to love and bless.
Love yourself today. Speak what you cannot say.
Freedom’s in the truth you give and share along the way.
A myth that you are damaged; fiction you are less;
Truth that you will always be a soul to love and bless.
Love yourself today. Speak what you cannot say.
Freedom’s in the help you give and share along the way.
An illusion you are broken; a deception you are less;
Truth that you will always be a soul to love and bless.
Love yourself today. Speak what you cannot say.
Freedom’s in the love you give and share along the way.

In Joy
Your contract was written in joy. There’s a reason that you are here.
Suffering is not God’s will for His child He loves so dear.
You have a right to the blessings of life. Seek them and you will find
Your special reason for living, your purpose that’s one of a kind.
Don’t settle for anything less. You are deserving of the best.
Be grateful and seek your blessings. They are yours by simple request.

Self Talk
Support is just a thought away. Love yourself with words you say.
What you need to hear, speak to your own ear.
Speak your cares aside, whatever they may be.
Speak your worries gone, with faith and certainty.
Great influence and force, always close at hand;
Great power just within, always in command.

Great power just within, always in command.

Worth (Love)
Your birth is not your worth defined as high or defined as low.
You’re not more and you’re not less despite what circumstance may show.
You are cherished. You are loved whether hungry or whether fed.
You are equal in Love’s Kingdom no matter what’s been implied or said.
Yet, you’re special. You’re unique. You’re the apple of Love’s eye.
You have purpose. You are needed like the sun up in the sky.
Your birth is not your worth defined as pauper or defined as prince.
You’re not more and you’re not less despite what context may convince.
You are cherished. You are loved whether warm or whether cold.
You are equal in Love’s Kingdom no matter what’s been implied or told.
Yet, you’re special. You are different. There is no one just like you.
You’re respected. You’re admired and Love loves you through and through.

The Mountain
I want to show you the mountain and how high it is up there.
The breath is like no other. Inhale love. Exhale despair.
I’ll meet you in the valley. That is where we’ll begin our climb.
We will ready our gear with perspective, contrast, faith and time.
I want to show you the mountain and take you to its peak.
The view is like no other. Behold beautiful peace that you seek.
I’ll meet you in the valley. That is where we’ll begin our climb.
We will ready our gear with perspective, contrast, faith and time.
When we are at the top, we’ll look back at the valley below.
We will delight in our ascension, every step, and we will know.
We will not know from our minds. We will know from the Mountains pull.
Lifting us up to our power. Content with a heart that is full.
