And you adapt

Life is about adapting 
How do you grow?
This life isn’t for you to be cute for so long.. you do eventually need to grow.

Life is yours to own,
Speak something ‘new’, something no one has done before,
But this is God’s creation after all, you do have the hope…right to the centre of your core.

Life is yours to use for so long,
I wasn’t always like this but learnt bit by bit to become strong.

And it didn’t stop there, 
learn to keep moving, that’s your chance, 
This isn’t about procrastinating, that you can always lance.

So try 
Keep trying
Motivation is your aim,
You are only as good as your last workout, so look towards and attain.

Make it count.

this is your life 
Make it count!
There is a higher power in you which shall always amount.

Yes, you may be tired
And struggle towards the next ambitious thought,
It’s about belief in yourself, and the work on this path which you have been openly taught. 

I hear so many people who said “I wish I could do this!” as they do not believe,
The power of the spirit is for you not to be deceived. 

Don’t dare give in 
You have a chance,
This is a chance to enhance.

Enhance your beliefs and they way you walk,
This is your life after all, I feel we have all done enough talk.

Everything in God’s timing

Everything is temporary 
Everything has a way through, 
Everything can be managed
Pray first, the answer through the clue. 

Everything has it’s time
And the time belongs to God, 
Everything has its moment, and it’s only God who is able to prod.

Everything is momentarily 
Everything can be humble and hopeful to be fair,
So get rid of the drainers, the one’s in truth are unable to care. 

Everything is in God’s hands
You need to pray and find a way, 
Everything is held by the Grace greater than ourselves
Hanging on to life, that’s the path of anybody’s spiritual health.

Zeal…

Zeal is a energy
Something we can all entice,
For some it can be talking a lot, and others work hard in physicality.. the other end of what brings us to new heights.

Zeal is a passion
It needs balance, along with full of attention,
It’s a great word which means passion, energy and desire,
This walk of Faith gets stronger and craves something higher. 

Zeal is a hope
It’s optimistic and looking at the light, 
Zeal is a hopeful word which we can all look to achieve,
A spiritual reflection which most of us will want to learn and receive. 

Zeal isn’t ‘perhaps’ or ‘unsure’ what the answer is,
Debate isn’t part of zeal’s definition, but it’s a hopeful word that we shouldn’t dismiss.

“Zeal..”

Feed yourself with these words..

Feed yourself with these following words:
I know me and I know my highest power,
I learn each day and won’t say a bad thing, despite tempted,
I am a child of the highest and look towards my soul to be invested.

I am kind
And I am pleased to be weak,
I am no less or more than you,
I have overcome an addictive pattern as now I ensue.

I don’t talk only about me, I’ll balance the conversation about you and I,
I know one day I won’t be here, but knowing myself encourages one self so I shan’t say goodbye.

I am blessed
and I pray for you each day,
As long I put God in the centre,
Negativity shall no longer stay.

I am fractured 
but I shall repair 
I now live the remainder of my days for encouraging words to always share.

Living with this…

I won’t complain
Because we all have things to manage,
But having a condition like diabetes with a tag of ‘type 1’,
The secretion of insulin is our objective, where injections of pump treatment is never finished or done.

The condition is never truly mastered 
And people say “they didn’t look after themselves”,
They too would struggle with hypos and hypers, even through the strength of our stealth.

The calculations are a frequent quiz
Checking out formulas when complex carbs are part of the array, 
This condition isn’t going anywhere… but we need to stay focused and balance our blood sugars.. and we can only do that day by day!

We feel restricted but we are positive in body, heart and mind,
The insulin requirement isn’t something you can treat as blind.

You need to be patient
You need to be strong, 
And even though we are human our mindsets don’t have a place to belong. 

We are a community of individuals 
We come in all shapes and sizes to be exact, 
But when insulin is part of your life the numbers games of insulin dosage is part of correction in order to subtract.

Doing something for a higher power

You may have a gift
We all have traits to work through, 
And perhaps we work very hard,
Try our best, we speak to the higher power and never become harsh. 

We may do something good
And we hope that’s done from the goodness of our heart;
Don’t seek the glory, that already belongs to God, which arrived from the point your journey starts.

You may win a global competition 
Achieved to the pinnacle of grace, 
This is your time to shine, but ultimately God is the one you shall embrace.

You may not believe in a highest power,
I believe in the spirit which is inside of you and I, 
Prayers are powerful and have great depth and meaning, 
So each act of kindness, and through that in God you shan’t ever be stealing.
