a shape poem I made as a requirement in one of my subjects.
I’m going to follow God’s plan for me no matter what anyone in my past says. They are in the past and I am pressing forward. It’s time for me to move on from the people who do not support me. I am a women, and I am capable of being a pastor. Just because I am a women does not mean I am a weaker vessel. God’s love for me isn’t any higher or less. His love is unconditional. Thank you Father for revealing the truth in my life! No matter how rocky my journey gets, I will keep going with You hand in hand! I love you Jehovah-Raffa!
"Why didn’t God take away the scars? Because it was the most powerful story. Jesus didn’t even cover up His scars. They were healed wounds. Our scars are a witness to the world. They are apart of our story. Healed wounds that are symbols that God has restored us."

Silly rabbit, Easter is for Jesus.
Sometimes, its easy to get wrapped up in taking care of the people around us. You may find that you’re always giving, taking care of the children, working overtime at the office, or helping that friend who is struggling. And thats all good. But if youre not careful, you can end up feeling rundown. Thats why you have to take time every day to get filled back up. Your first priority should be taking care of yourself and making time to get into the presence of Jesus.
Throughout scripture, we see that in Gods presence there is fullness of joy, fullness of peace, and fullness of victory. In His presence, youre refreshed and restored. Thats why its so important to take time every day to read your Bible and meditate on His promises. We have to be diligent to have that quiet time with Him.
Today, take time to get alone with God and just say, God, I love You today. Thank You for my life, for my family, for the opportunities Youve given me. Lord, I know every good thing comes from You. When you live like that, with your heart connected to His, youll be refreshed, restored, reenergized and filled up for the journey of life!
