In Christ Alone
by Confideo

The Almighty can do anything
The Protector guards those who trust Him
The All-knowing gives genuine wisdom
The Provider supplies solutions

God is all of these and so much more
It is His pleasure to open doors
He sees the end from the beginning
To His children, He showers blessings

As we live a life of confidence
In His grace and ( Read more... )

How Dare You
by Confideo

How dare you buy expensive gifts for those you hardly know
While the children you brought into this world have nowhere to go
They walk the streets without what is considered the basics
As you fly up high - don't you even get airsick?

You eat in fine dining restaurants and go where you want to go
Don't you know that they'd be happy ( Read more... )

Tunay na Biyaya
(a poem by Confideo in Tagalog)

Kaibigan ko siya, kaibigan ka niya, kaya tayo nagkakilala
Pareho tayong masarap kumain at mahilig sa musika 
Mga "jokes" natin ay hindi na kailangan pang ipaliwanag
Malayo-layo pa ang "punchline", atin na itong naaaninag

Hindi kaya tayo kambal na pinaglayo nung tayo'y bagong silang?
Kung anuman ang ( Read more... )

STUBBORN LOVE
(a poem by Confideo)

I look into your eyes and see eternity unfold before me
Your presence fills my life to an almost intolerable degree
The rebel deep within sometimes wants to just run and escape from you
But your stubborn love would not give up as you pursue me through and through

As I allow you to show me your love in ways nobody ( Read more... )

Sweet, Sweet Savior
(a poem by Confideo)

It must have been heart-breaking to smell Your own blood
That flowed like a flood from the crown of thorns above
You knew that there was no other way around it
To the plan of salvation, You had to submit

Your purpose was to seek and save those who were lost
The very same people who nailed You to the cross

How Could You?
(a poem by Confideo)

How could you be so bold to say that you love me
When the truth is that you don't really know me
You find my actions difficult to comprehend
Because you don't know where I'm coming from, my friend

The person I am today is just a result
Of my experiences as a child and adult
They are very diff'rent from what you ( Read more... )

(a poem by Confideo

Not so long ago, my brother sent me
A picture of a beautiful baby
She was their newborn daughter Rebekah
Filled with joy was he and his wife Sara

October 12, 2007
The date they received a gift from heaven
Made in Chile; born in the U. S. A.
She effortlessly takes your breath away

After a year of life here on ( Read more... )

Were precious jewels that brought about delighted ( Read more... )

FIGHTING GRAVITY 
(an inspirational poem by Confideo)

You bring me to places I've never been 
Without leaving the space I'm in
You chose to see me in a different light 
And help me through my darkest nights
The power of your love conquers my fear
All I need to know is you're near

I am a tree that reaches for the sky
You keep my roots grounded
Yet lift my ( Read more... )
