It's a season to celebrate A Father, A Lover, A shepherd and A Prophet and MORE!!!!
I wrote this piece some years ago purposefully for November the 7th.
To kick start what I call TLP (Thursday Lively Poetry) This is:

Ewe
Thanks for being meek and mild as the river 
Your heart beats for Christ even your liver 
They linger in hope for the better 
Your lungs longs for the alpha 
And the Omega 

The father's word 
Is what you always want to see 
You made it your currency 
You even swim in it's excellent sea
We celebrate your Excellency.

Our pastor
Not just because of the religion 
But to lead in the right pasture 
The gathering of sons, he prays us to really join 

I'll be an incomplete building 
If the blocks to mould me is not you
I'm a goat turning to be ewe
Thanks again Dad, for being you 

Even though a mansion in the eyes
Of men of this fading world
You lash us with, changing words
The father is your price 

You call God blessing 
I wonder how, If it doesn't bless sin 
Following you just makes me lessen 
Your word, always a lesson 
All round, you're really blessing.

No wonder you make me see sin 
Not to hurt me, or praise him 
Not admire him, nor reveal my past deed
But to learn from the things you did
You was raised, so I could learn him. 
Happy birthday Dad!

Oh Lord I need strength to trust in you and not in whatever endowment you've bestowed on me, help me lord to rest more on your word. Help me Lord to find peace in my creator and not his creatures or creations. 

This breath is inspired by the post on "THE INHERITANCE" BY @Abbie   
1 Thessalonians 5:2-4
There are several verses of the scriptures that has either been interpreted wrongly or taken in isolation and for me the bible passage above takes the lead (esp verse 2) because, I believe this has gotten many of our brethren in the faith running really fast on the wrong lane. I think we should all just register it first of all in our minds that the Lord's coming is not a physical event, Yes! it is an event but it's not a one-off event. Even the first event of his coming is still a doubt for some till date, and the reason for his coming which is of more importance is still not known to many, and this is to say that the Scriptures and the center theme which is Jesus Christ the son of God is a spiritual nomenclature.  1John: 5:20 The reason for the Lord's coming is to give us an understanding of whom the Son of God is and the reason for his coming: to know the true God and eternal life. John 17:3 

Back to 1 Thessalonians 5:2-4, 
Many people still quote IN ISOLATION, the coming of the lord is like a thief in the night Verse 2 of 1 Thessalonians 5, Yes true but to them that are in the dark verse 4 says " but ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief, 5 says "ye are all children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness" 6 " therefore let us not sleep..." hmm sleep!!! God will not allow us to sleep unto Death o (ifykyk)
I trust my egbons @everyone will strengthen this thought and give clarity wherever is confusing or not laid well.
IRE ooooooo
