REFLECTIONS OF MY HEART Bob Yulo

Can you come into my dreams
And wipe the tears from my eyes.
And hold my face in your hands.
and whisper, "it's going to be all right".

I love you
and we will soon be together again
SOMEDAY.

I am the God of the least, the last, the lost and the broken.
I am the God of the past, the future, and the present.
I am the God who has chosen to love you with my birth that I may be one with you and by my death that I might save you.

When the wounds from the beatings have left you battered and uninspired,
When the stumbles and detours have left you confused and tired,
When the world is filled with evil, chaos, and havoc,
Pray for those who have caused you to hurt and suffer.
Pray for those who have caused you to pray and ponder.
Pray for those who have caused you to be humble.
Pray for those who have caused your faith to become stronger.
Pray for those who have caused God's love within you to become real.
Pray and you will find God always with you everyday, in every minute and hour.

Because when you take my heart, I know that I will find my way.
Just speak your words and I will find courage to carry on and reason to hold on and stay.
When you are by my side, I will catch the breeze and soar to the sky.
As the day shifts to silence, I will count the stars and see your smile.
Between the breath of each quiescent sigh, I shall find my rest.
I shall be with you. I shall find true love nestled in life’s caress.

Even the moon sleeps.
And why shouldn’t it find time for it?
It does its work when the world falls into slumber deep.
It shares its radiance at night when the sun sets and light recedes.
After the work is compleat, it slowly fades and finds time to rest and sleep.
Such is the requisite for those of us who live. We find meaning when we share and give.
When we allow ourselves to rest and sleep, we are able to continue to love and live.

Give all I can and to be the best with my heart and hands, for today is all I have and tomorrow may never come again.

Choose to be good. Choose to be kind.

Choose to be with God in hope and faith.

Choose the peace of love and not despair and hate.

These, in humble praise, I seek in the sanctity of your solace.

These, in thanksgiving, I receive the grace of your embrace.
