The Critic

 Why do critics continue to follow you?

It's not uncommon to have critics or naysayers in your social circle. They might not always agree with your choices or actions, and may even look for any opportunity to accuse or criticize you. However, it's crucial to be aware of your surroundings and stay alert, as such ignorance can lead to anger or even harm.

Be prepared for situations where you might face criticism or opposition. Like a soldier who is well-trained and equipped is ready for battle, you too can develop wise strategies to deal with everyone, even those who disagree with you.

Instead of worrying about why people who disagree with you are drawn to your assignment, focus on carrying out your responsibilities with wisdom and integrity. 

By staying calm, and focused on your assignment, you can overcome any obstacles that come your way. So don't let the critics get you down, keep moving forward and trust in God for success. 

Remember, it's your personal responsibility to further enrage them by carrying out your assignment. 

(Read Acts 6:1–11)

The Best of Pain

  What Births Your Best?   O h pain,  you are  the bittersweet source Of inspiration for the human  race. For the deepest truths we seek to find Lie within us, beyond our eyes And when a creator pours out their pain We see our own, and we are not the same .   What brings out the best in men? Is it pain ,  love,   both, or none? A timeless question asked  that  only true seekers  can find. For pain, they say, is the mother of art And love,  though a beautiful thing Can sometimes become  a  distant dream for the creative soul.   A broken world  understands  pain. For when the world is broken and sad the children of men   turn to art to   find solace in the creator's  pain. A  deep   connection, that pulls at  the  heart As it reflects what lies within .   So why do we crave the pain in art? In brokenness, lies the seed Of the best art that has ever been. For when th...

A Room of Possibilities

Within my mind lies a room, Filled with books of every kind, Some opened, some closed, And some buried in the cobwebs of time.   Stories of love and loss, Of heartache and of glee, Tales of my past triumphs, And regrets that still haunt me.   I find myself drawn, To the books that are open wide, Eager to immerse myself, In the stories they hide.   But as I look around, I realize I'm trapped in a cage, Not made of bars or walls, But of my own fears and doubts. I see now that these stories, Both happy and sad, Should only serve as a reference, Not a hindrance to my path. And so I choose to break free, From this self-constructed prison, Leaving behind the tales of my past, Embracing the promise of a new beginning. With each step, I leave behind, The weight of my old stories, And I step into the light, Feeling the warmth of the sun on my face. No longer bound by my past, I am free to chase my dreams, To create new stories, And achieve greater feats. For within my mind lies a ...

A Woman's Choice

A woman's choice is not an easy one to make, for there are many voices that try to dictate.  Society, parents, friends, and lovers too,  all want to tell her what she should do.   They all claim, "Do this, don't do that,"  trying to mold her into their own ideal frame. But these voices only bring her down,  draining her joy, like a king without a crown.   As a woman, she has learned to pretend, masking her true feelings until the very end. Sacrificing for the opposite gender, forgetting her  own needs in surrender. For if she makes a choice that's truly hers, her strength will be questioned, her worth in a blur.   They'll say she's too hard, too prideful, with no empathy, a woman who can't humble herself.  But if she listens and follows their lead, her true self, she'll never have the chance to see. A life filled with regret and deep sorrow for a choice that wasn't truly hers all along.   Sometimes her choices may not seem right, but if ...
