An analysis of trust : a poem

This poem is a journey through different facets of trust to create a synopsis

Oh achy heart with no one to trust

the weary soul with no place to call home,
The heavy head with no shoulder to rest on
How your internal war isolates you
It is indeed a hard decision to make
An arduous road to take
When you consider that words first be can sweet yet the truth about them is bitter
you travel down that road once more

Oh, naive heart,
look once and then again because the one you trust is not worthy,
it is one who reads from a well-written script,
listen more than you feel is necessary,
because the puzzle is solvable,
when the pieces do not fit it is not a mystery but a clue.

If only you could see the truth then you would soar over the isolation,
over the heaviness
There is but one that is worthy of all trust
God alone
But on earth, there are a few he has placed
Because the curious thing is we need each other
The creator did not make us to build walls but to build bridges.

The existential crisis of Job: The search for meaning

He is a man with so much integrity that one book of the bible is dedicated to him. The question is why did he have so many trials? Everything went wrong in Job's life, yes e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g. It all started with something he could not see in Job chapter 1. God boasts about Job and Satan tells God that the only reason Job serves him is because of the things God does for him. His proposition is for God to let him , Satan, switch things around so that Job would curse God. God agrees but states that Satan cannot take Job's life. ...

Women's Prayer Banquet Become A Better You (B.A.BY) with Pastor Dotun

My notes from Women's Prayer Banquet "Become a Better You" September, 2021. There were so many wisdom nuggets being released at this online event. I just got to write down a few. Men out there will find this information useful as well. Kids need hands on play-time: puzzles, lego, creativity from drawing e.t.c. This allows them to build creativity. On the other hand, always watching TV will create hyperactivity. (My kid's pediatrician actually taught us this at a yearly checkup, so this is standard medical information as well). This is the reason why a lot of adults cannot meditate, our minds are not calm enough. Excuses are made whether they are valid or not.The 1st person you have responsibility to is yourself. Age, marriage and children are not excuses to give up on yourself. No one is better than you, they just know something that you don't know. Prayer is not a substitute for building skills and building up yourself to establish wealth. Some peopl...
