IT’S A NEW DAY (POEM)
It’s a new day, it’s a new week
It’s a time to trust and be blessed afresh
The hurts and disappointments of the past may still be raw
But take a chance to open your heart
Open it up to possibilities of good
Believe that better things are in the wings
Things long desired
Things that will warm your heart
Embrace them from afar
Then pull them in by faith
It’s a new day, it’s a new week
May you experience the very best in it
And share same with everyone
The downcast, the crushed and heavy laden
Pull them up into the light
Put a smile on their lips and a song in their heart
Such that they can reach out to someone else
And spread the circle of love and light
Banishing the darkness inhibiting the appropriation of the Creator’s goodness
In Jesus’ name.

Praise God, Glory to his name, it’s a new day.
I receive better things from the wings,I embrace them from afar, I pull them in by faith,by his light let darkness be banished and let the appropriation of the king of Kings, his council, his purpose for each day not be inhibited. Halleluya…🕺💃🕺💃💃🕺

Everyday you wake up is another day, you’re born. It’s another time,to present yourself in a whole different light,to this world we live in. So, pick yourself up and live this life, like you were born to live it and you’ll enjoy the spectacular grace,God endowed on this earth.
Honestly, this poem touched my current state of being! Sometimes I felt like am i sure that there is a better days ahead with the way things are? With all the struggle and focus yet nothing much have turned out for good as a result…
But forgotten that the only solution to
all problems and the giver of success and happiness is God.
