Don’t judge your feelings; notice them. Use them as your map. Don’t be afraid of the truth.
Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

World full of deception
Most lack understanding
Man lives with blind spirit
God’s Word seeks soft landing
Father’s knowledge revealed
Prepared with divine love
Shared through Holy Spirit
From heaven’s depths above
Man’s spirit lacks vision
Missing truth of God’s Word
Pride hinders man’s access
Spirit’s teachings transferred
Filling man’s hungry mind
Scripture’s truth, Spirit brings
Living in mind of Christ
God’s wisdom always clings
From 1 Corinthians 2:12-13: “Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit that is from God, so that we may understand the gifts bestowed on us by God.

Looking to conquer
Bullies search for life’s island—
Mankind’s weakest link
Remember always
Our mirror’s self-reflection—
Misses life’s real truth
Life’s biggest challenge
Constructing each new puzzle—
Piece follows each piece

Virtue knows no color line.
