DAVID COULDN'T FIGHT IN AN ARMOUR

 (Miracle Child)


They say you're slow and immobile

Tell them you're only sober

David couldn't fight in an armour 

But with a stone and sling 

He brought down a giant 

And with his sword took off his head!


Hailed on the shoulder of champions 

Praised by adoring maidens:

Tell them you're a miracle child 

That you may look dull and mild 

But your mind is a fire burning wild


For David couldn't fight in an armour 

But with a stone and sling 

And the Blessed Name of the Lord

He brought down a giant! 

(Oh, tell them, you're a miracle child!)

At times in life, we see people place pressure on us to act in a certain way and do things the way they're usually done. But those ways aren't usually for us, we have to find our path to solve certain issues. David couldn't move in an armour but used a sling and a stone to down a giant. May God give us the grace to stand firm in the conviction of what we believe. Amen.

MARY HAD SOME LITTLE WORDS

HAVEN'T FOUND THE ANSWER YET

I searched the four corners of the wind I listened hard, I heard the birds sing I saw them take to flight and fly free I saw power in their wholesome wings  I went deep down the ocean depths  The primordial power of the earth I felt  Was ever so majestic the deeper I went Words fail to capture the essence  I climbed the mountains of the highest peaks Caught the sunrise on the tallest trees Saw so much beauty that I couldn't breathe Saw greatness that made my heart to freeze  In high spirits, but my energy spent  Still seeking answers, but I couldn't make a dent I searched the secrets of the seven seas I was put to bed by the gentle breeze  It doesn't matter if I spend my last cent   These answers are worth more per every cent  Yet on my strength I can't depend  To the grace of God, I must defer For in the fire, I found no answer In the earthquake, I heard no response  In the thunder, there was no reply  But in the g...
