Abundance Unseen

In the quiet corners of our hearts, 
Where seeds of kindness take root, 
God’s miraculous multiplication unfolds, 
A symphony of grace, a divine pursuit.

Our small acts of generosity, like grains of sand, 
May seem insignificant, easily dismissed, 
Yet within them lies the potential for abundance, 
A tapestry woven by hands unseen, gently kissed.

Let us not fixate on scarcity’s shadow, 
But lift our eyes to the horizon’s golden hue, 
For in cultivating a vision that transcends limitations, 
We find God’s promise: our efforts multiplied, made new.

Trust, dear soul, that your offerings matter, 
Like loaves and fishes shared on a hillside, 
For God’s economy defies earthly logic, 
And love’s multiplication is our eternal guide.

So let us sow kindness, compassion, and grace, 
In the fields of this world, where hearts ache, 
And watch as God multiplies our humble offerings, 
A miracle unfolding—one small act at a time, for His sake.

Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. - Psalm 19:15

Prayer

What lies within this fragile heart that beats and bleeds and breaks apart. What secrets does it hold inside that I have tried so hard to hide. What dreams and hopes and fears and doubts that fill my mind and make me shout. What passions and desires and joys and pains that stir my soul and course my veins. What words and thoughts and feelings and deeds that shape my life and guide my needs. What truths and lies and rights and wrongs that form my voice and sing my songs. What is this heart that you can see that only you can set me free. What is this heart that I conceal that only you can make me reveal.
