Notes About The Poem

Jealous

A beautiful woman still in bloom. Dark olive skin and long onyx hair. Wanting tenderness not hate and dared to move and seek for a new dawn whom a jealous man chose to seek her doom. A pond filled with lilies was her tomb. 10/13/201
Terra Jackson...R.I.P. Hatred is a feeling that can be both Godly and sinful depending on what it is that is causing us to hate. The Bible speaks of loving God and hating evil (Psalm 97:10) and hating the assembly of evildoers (Psalm 26:5) and hating falsehood (Psalm 119:116). The more we become like Christ and understand the love of God, the more we will being to hate hypocrisy, godlessness, and evil of the world. However, we are also warned over and over in the Bible of how hatred and bitterness can destroy us. God tells us in Scripture that hate is a heart issue and that someone who hates a brother is a murderer! (1 John 3:15) We are encouraged to love one another, keep short records of wrongs, and forgive others, not harboring bitterness or anger in our hearts. This collection of Bible verses about hate will help you gain wisdom on how to handle hate with God's power through the Holy Spirit! https://www.biblestudytools.com/topical-verses/bible-verses-about-hate/

I absolutely love reading this wonderful poem of yours, you have said so much in just a few words, your this poem has a really deep meaning and is full of wisdom, you see satan lives inside us, the desires or tempations we feel are often really strong but if we have the fear of God, that He is watching us, that He will reward us for our simplictiy and goodness, we will never commit a crime, so the solution lies in totally believing in God, if you do that, satan can never decieve you, good luck
