Never Give Up on Souls
People can change.
They evolve with every dawn,
Shifting, growing, becoming new.
The ancient saying—that a leopard cannot change its spots—
Does not apply to souls made in His image.
Nor can we claim an old dog cannot learn,
For grace rewrites what once seemed fixed.
Like time itself, we press forward,
Transforming in seconds, minutes, and hours.
What once was broken can bloom again;
Yesterday’s shadows yield to tomorrow’s light.
Never give up on people.
Hold space for their becoming.
You may be joyfully surprised
By the beauty that unfolds.
