I BREAK THE DAWN


I yawn and I stretch, I breathe in deeply again

Refreshed, Refined, Renewed and Revived

Like an early bird I rise, into a brand new day

That lurked about all night, asking to give me a chance

To grasp all the treasures it holds within



The beauty of dawn enchants me, as i look out my window

The sun was barely out; it’s been gone all night

But slowly it creeps out, from a little crack in the sky.

Leisurely the day unfolds, boldly it conquers the night

 Much like a warrior on a covert mission




Soon all the streets will be lit, with sun rays so bright

They could pierce into your soul

It’s so easy to dread this day and what it may bring

All the suspense it conveys, all the mysteries it holds

What side of its different colours and faces will I see today?




But the dawn of each new day, feels like God is writing me a letter

A personal love letter meant for me and me alone

He sends it to me through a never failing medium

The beauty and radiance of each new morning

And he uses words engraved in the sky




I unclipped my wings, and I’m ready to soar

To take all that’s mine in this new day

Only I can make today worth it, its outcome is in my hands

It’s left to me to make it worth my effort?

Or leave it for the wind to blow away like chaff?




With the myriad of thoughts running through my mind

It’s so easy to get confused about how to start today

But I’ve made a decision deep down in my heart

 To make a difference today, to write my name in the sky

With letters as bright as the sun, so the rain can’t wash it away

THE DAWNING





You have walked into this year 2011 with plans,

You have set goals you hope to achieve,

You have made New Year resolutions.

Some of us have made all these plans with absolute conviction and believe that it is possible

Some of us have made these plans with doubt and fear of the unknown in our hearts.

God is saying to you that all he needs you to do is believe that this year will bring you only good.

You need to believe that the limitations of the previous year, has gone with it.

This is your year of restoration

This is your year of unfathomable possibilities.

He needs you to believe it, only then can you receive it.

If you haven’t said a prayer this New Year, Why don’t you take some time now to do so.

What is it you want this year?

Write it down, make it plain and simple

Declare it into your life every day.

Take off the words impossible from your vocabulary this New Year.

Replace it with achievable.

This New Year you are attaining a higher level and reaching onto a new dimension.

It’s time for the rain,

The rain of God’s blessing.

God is enlarging your territory; he is increasing your sphere of influence.

He is turning whatever caused you shame in the past year into glory.

He has given you victory over sin, death, failures, bad habits, mediocrity.

Look around you, what do you see?

He will turn those things that make you sad around for joy.

Have the courage to believe,

Have the audacity to dream again,

Have the boldness to hope again

Dare to trust again that you are a partaker of his blessings this new year.

He will satisfy you with good health, prosperity, long life.

Make a decision to stay connected to him.

Make him your sole source of life’s goodness.

He loves you,

He will make this year good for you.

It’s a new dawn,

It’s a new year.

Happy New Year!!!
