Crutch

A perfect man would never act from a sense of duty; he’d always want the right thing more than the wrong one. Duty is only a substitute for love (of God and of other people) like a crutch which is a substitute for a leg. Most of us need the crutch at times; but of course it is idiotic to use the crutch when our own legs (our own loves, tastes, habits etc.) can do the journey on their own.

- C. S. Lewis

Glory

you know what would be glory? 

if god were holy, holy, holy

and say he was also big, powerful, righteous and all-knowing

if he were to look me in the eyeball, 

and say that he knew every sin I had committed, 

and he bled for it, and I was for now and forever forgiven 

that would be glory … and for it, I would give my all

Random thought

To act is to believe. 

Someday

may be, some day, 

when the sun shines bright,
when music from a distance floats over the air, mild, 

when there are blessings divine and no cares on my mind

when callings for the day are well satisfied

oh and when, for once, the time is right

may be, some day, 

when friends approve with a wink and smile

i will look into those eyes

and sit beside the girl
who is mine

Washing Dishes

Do you have to be a downtrodden pretty girl for a fairy godmother to magically wash dishes for you?

What if you pay?

All Good Gifts

 Hold a dime upto your eye
And it will look an enormous size
So you'd think God shrinks As you look down here for more 

We don't get it right, who would've guessed?
Hallelujah, God doesn't expect
More than his own grace to carry you to shore
