THE FIRST ELEVEN


Lord

Thank you

For the first eleven

Their highs and lows

For the strong foundation

Now cumulatively established

Firmly affirming the way forward

For the lessons so priceless and true

It’s all flawlessly coming together for the good

Inspiring hope and glorious promise in eventful horizon cascade

See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you Isa 42:9-NIV

THE 6TH STAIRWAY


Reflective

Defining interval

Along kinetic track

Renewal flows in regroup’s wake

Promise shining forth in resilient luster

See spring fountains rise joyously in the desert

Hope gushing forth in abandon of the kite at full flow

All will be well sits at second chance signature underlining clean slate

Cascade of possibilities beckoning onward in the second half ascend taking shape

But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength

They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary

They will walk and not be faint (Isaiah 40:31 – NIV)
