LUCENTE

The Spirit will be your guide
You are to spread the good news of eternal light
You shall illumine the hearts of those you meet
Touching strangers and foes shall be your feat

Scintillate my daughter of light
The angels will embellish you with the love of the Mighty One
Your sweet fragrance will overpower the rotting stench of sin
And your voice shall be soothing amidst the swearing of the hopeless

Believe and never falter
For your radiance shall never fade
Soft, gentle yet lambent
No wind can ever blow your luminescence away

METAMORPHOSIS

The BUTTERFLY is used as a symbol of transformation because of its mutation from a larva in a cocoon to a vibrant and colorful insect. During the ancient era, the Egyptians and the Greeks placed golden butterflies on tombs to represent resurrection, rebirth and immortality. In Christian symbolism in art, it represents resurrection through its process of metamorphosis:

Caterpillar – human form, Cocoon/Chrysalis – death, Butterfly – spirit

METAMORPHOSIS

The mystery of evolution

Life's continuous state of transformation

The turbulent voyage

While facing unpredictable uncertainties

Where do we draw our strength

What hope do our hearts possess

Which faith shall we believe in

Who shall we depend upon

For your answers will dictate

As your destiny awaits

To plummet or to rise

To perish or survive

There is only one way to endure

Life's incessant trials and tribulations

Draw, hope, believe, depend

On God and God alone

Then the promise of life

Like a ray through an aperture

From a chrysalis you shall emerge

A metamorphosed creature of light

CAMELUS

A Camel through a needle's eye
Believe and do not falter
with Yahweh nothing is impossible

Shrunken to fit an Angel's palm
Laden with woes and desolation
with Yahweh no load is unbearable

Thirst not for water
But for wisdom and the Spirit
with Yahweh your life is made meaningful

The endurance of the Camelus is from within
That's why they survive the desert's fury
with Yahweh your strength is invincible

with Yahweh alone...

REST

Be at peace...

only then you will be able to listen

for in silence your soul thirsts for wisdom

for in tranquility your heart embraces the truth

and in serenity you will grow in love...

JOURNEY

Dream...

and a journey filled with impossibilities will commence

Soar...

and like the angels you shall grow wings

Sail...

and the wind will steer where you wish to go

then shall you be blessed with miracles of this journey,

this journey called Life...

CAST

Above all wisdom...

we were cast in this life

with a purpose beyond knowledge

to fall, rise up and hope

to understand, believe and hold on to faith

to grow, serve and to love...
