Love a God-fearing woman...
for her prayers are stronger than promises,
and her silence heals louder than storms.
She will not tear your name in anger,
but whisper it to Heaven when you fall.
Her faith—
it builds you like dawn builds light,
softly,
steadily,
until even your shadows bow to her warmth.
She will lift your spirit from the ashes,
speak courage into your trembling bones,
and smile...oh that smile...
like sunlight breaking through the grief of years.
Where others bring fire, she brings calm;
where others demand, she forgives;
and where your soul once trembled in chaos,
she brings peace...
gentle...holy,
like rain after a drought.
So love her—
not because she is flawless,
but because her heart beats in rhythm with grace.
Love her,
and you will know what it means
to rest...
finally...
in the arms of something sacred.
Oh Almighty God
end this genocide on Gaza

hate is an internal cry
burning salt drips of anger
steaming for justice

A kind and God-fearing wife
Brings joy to her husband’s life
Far from emotional strife
‘No !
I am not a God Fearing man ‘
quite the opposite
‘I love my Creators
A life without a reason, now has a meaning
I will always keep hope and faith to keep living
As I read my biblical verses for wisdom
The music in my spirit gives my life rhythm
I’m always in need of Jesus my loving friend
To help keep me away from harm and sin
But those without God who attain these goals
Soon find emptiness remains in their souls
If only they would believe in God's Son
And repent of the sinful deeds they've done
In the hour of pain and anguish
Suffer not our hearts to languish
Since our hope is in the Lord
Not what the world can afford
But fear is love, and love is fear
God gave us his Son Jesus to show us he cares
Crucifixion framed
Wars fought in the above named
Convert or be maimed
