Dear young independent women,
you don't need a man to be relevant-

You can take care of yourself
and others without a man's help..
Society has made us believe that until a woman is married, she is a failure in life.  
That is a lie,
yes we want to get married
but not to prove a point to people that we are worth...

we are worth more than just a man's last name.
A friend just gained her PhD and the mother asked,
"Congrats but when are u getting married"

There's a sweetness
in the presence
to the glory
of the Lord

Come and taste
all he gives
the sweetest taste
you've ever known

The taste of mercy
and forgiveness
no bitter taste
on the tongue

No better taste
sweet satisfaction
come and taste
the Lord is good

If i'm a sunflower
You are my sun
Your warmth & light enlightens me
& Bestows energy to my soul
When you rise up
I always turn to see your face
When you come to me in the morning
I really start growing,my darling
When you come to me in the noon
Floating,tossing & dancing in front of you
When your rays kiss me
I bow down my head and shy
When your brightness hugs me
I happily move and bloom
When your light shades
By God my face fades
When you hide behind the clouds
My crying voice louds
When you become sad
I also feel so bad
When in the evening you show red light
Me turn pale,old & lose my sight
When you go away to home
My loneliness starts killing me
When you say good bye
I finally wither,fall & die

The sweetness of thy words lay not in thine mouth
but in thine mind

The beauty of moving thine body lay not in thine walking
but in thine heart

The utmost pure love thou hath shown lay not in thine caring nor loving
but in thine precious hidden soul

That’s why loving thee is not a day’s work
but a labour that lasts a life long
and encapsulates life beyond eternity....

In the midst of nothing, you bring babies into life.
In the midst of sorrow, you bring out of me Joy.
In the midst of being broke, you give me wealth.
In the midst of pain, you give unto me healing.
For you are the Living Word, you speak life.
Into situations, people, and you give life to us all.
When we are feeling dead or empty inside ourselves.
We draw close to you repent and ask you for healing.
Then you begin speaking Life in to each of your people.
For you are the Living Word, whom speak life into us.
