PEACE BEGINS WITH THE FAMILY UNIT

 


     PEACE BEGINS WITH THE 

                  FAMILY UNIT

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” [Proverbs 22:6].

*
A strong family is the glue binding each individual to the world.
Family togetherness is a driving force and should be our goal.
Family prayer is both a religious and relational practice.
Prayer provides opportunities to express mutual love and forgiveness.
*
When you fall in life, your family should be there to catch you.
Choose to uplift each other and make prayer a positive experience too.
Be considerate of each other and refrain from criticizing the other.
Prayer is about intimacy with the Lord and with one another.
*


Children mimic their parent’s behaviour.
Parents should conduct themselves in a Godly manner.
Children are the future of our nation.
Let us train them for God’s eternal kingdom.

LIVE YOUR DREAMS


LIVE YOUR DREAMS


TRIP TO UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
Boatloads of fun were in store for our families,
At Universal Studios in Hollywood, Los Angeles.
We took the tram tour through the studios’ alleys,
To experience special effects, we see in the movies.
Flash floods, a plane crash, and falling rain,
Jurassic World, the parting of the Red Sea, a derailed train,
Jaws, a burning building, the six-million-dollar man,
King Kong, the Mummy’s tomb, the giants’ land.
Spiders crawled all over the tram, we panicked.
Screamed out our lungs, unaware it was a camera trick.
At Water World, sprayed with hoses by the hosts we met.
Enjoyed the magnificent show while dripping wet.
At Van Helsing: Fortress Dracula, a horror house,
Huge, dark, and like a maze, I felt like a mouse.
Scary-looking creatures and vampires kept grabbing me.
We spent a long time trying to reach the exit to be free.
The Wild West, with cowboys and horses, was great fun.
Backdraft was a burning inferno special effects movie rerun.
We sat in the cinema to see Shrek II and Terminator II.
In our seats, we felt every movement on the screen too.
Universal Studios is a film studio and theme park.
It’s also available in Europe, Florida, and Japan.
One of the fun places to put on your bucket list.
Take young ones, even grown-ups, and pay a visit.

A CARIBBEAN EXPERIENCE


A CARIBBEAN EXPERIENCE

Many people only dream of travelling to the Caribbean.
Nationals who are born and live there are called West Indians.
Islands in the Caribbean Sea southeast of the Gulf of Mexico.
Between North and South America form a massive archipelago.
*
Trinidad and Tobago a dual-island Caribbean nation.
With enchanting beaches, cuisine, and cultural traditions.
Owner of Caribbean Airlines and a haven for tourism,
Many flock to Port of Spain at Carnival with enthusiasm.
*
Discover the luxuriant allure of Saint Lucia‘s best.
Exclusive resorts and abundance of rainforest in the west.
Fiery passion and healing waters of its ancient volcano,
Twin peaks of Les Pitons like two lovers you may know.
*
Barbados is also noted for its exotic beaches and resorts.
A place for honeymooners and lovers of national sports.
Botanical gardens and 17th-century plantation houses,
A cruise ship port and surprises your curiosity arouses.
*
Further in the Eastern Caribbean lies exquisite Anguilla.
A haven for Hollywood movie stars, famous for lobster,
This island has long sandy stretches of inviting beaches.
And overlooks another lovely island within its reach.
*
Saint Maarten is another one of my favourite islands.
God must have hand-painted it with his own hands.
From the air, the striking colour of the turquoise sea,
And the white sandy beaches always appeal to me.
*
Curacao is a fabulous Dutch Caribbean getaway.
The floating Queen Emma Bridge will blow you away.
The beaches are tucked into coves and it’s a diving site.
Its expansive coral reefs are rich with marine life.
*
I have spent vacations on these exquisite islands.
Beautiful memories with loved ones grace my photo albums.
The Caribbean is the place to go for a memorable holiday.
The time to start planning your trip for 2024 is today.

POETRY TO AVOID DECEPTION, PERSECUTION, AND TRIBULATION


POETRY TO AVOID DECEPTION, PERSECUTION, AND TRIBULATION

Dear Readers.

I just published my 57th book. It's a Christian Poetry Book and I hope that you will read it. If you have Kindle Unlimited it is FREE to read.

NOW IS THE TIME TO PREPARE: POETRY ENLIGHTENMENT is a series of poetry compiled by Author Brenda Mohammed, author of 57 books, to enlighten readers on future events.
The world is in Chaos, and many feel we are in the end times.
The fact is, whether the world as we know it will end in a week, month, year, or fifty years from now, now is the time to prepare.
Now is the time to decide where we want to spend eternity.
In Matthew 24, Jesus Christ spoke about the signs to watch for. There will be a time of deception, a time of persecution, a time of tribulation, and a time of expectation.
Jesus said to expect these things, but it will not be the end, only the beginning of the end.
A time of deception, persecution, and tribulation, calls for a proper understanding of God’s Word to choose good over evil.
The poems written by the author are easy to read and understand.
The author hopes that readers will be blessed after reading this book.
