Joshua Miguel (resembles God)
He is the first
To feel our love and bliss
Loving, caring and polite
Always makes your day bright.

Kevin Bryan (dignified and strong)
He's the middle child
Smart and funny inside
Keeps the family intact
With his charming act.

Peter Benjamin (son of my strength)
The youngest of them all
Sweet and adorable you can call
His cry makes you strong
His laughter makes you whole.

They are my treasure
My greatest gifts for sure
My pride, my joy
And I love them all!

When you need a hand
To help you through
When you need an ear
To listen to you
I'm here, just here.

If you're lost and confused
And needed someone to guide you
If you're sad and feeling blue
And wanted to try something new
I'll be here...for you.

When you're not so sure
And you need confirmation
When you are hesitant
And you need a push
I'm here, I'm here.

Sometime you're just too tired
And you need some support
Sometimes you just can't go on
And you need one who can continue for you
I'll be here...more than willing.

When you are so inspired
And you want to talk about it
When you are so happy
You want to celebrate
I'm here. . . always here.

"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging symbol."

-1 Corinthians 13:1-



The bible says that "real" love has these qualities: It is patient and kind, never boastful, proud, or envious. It isn't rude or self-seeking. It doesn't get mad easily or keep a record of wrongs. It is never happy to see evil triumph and always rejoices when the truth is told. It protects, trusts, hopes, and perserveres. So pure is love that the Bible says it never fails. Determine to walk in love each day. You are sure to make a great difference in the lives of all those you encounter.


"Love is a verb."
It is an action word, show it!



(from: "If I really want to Make a Difference, I would")

I ordered some pizza and while waiting, I came to write this poem for my son, Joshua Miguel or "JM" for short as he celebrate his 12th birthday...

"Lord Jesus, inspire us to love as You love, to give as You give - freely, totally, faithfully, fruitfully. Amen."
