Forgiven


  The Stone's Silent Question

The silence stretched, thick and heavy.


A calm and steady voice came from heaven's passageway: 


He, without sin! One by one, the rocks slipped out of the hand of her accuser: 


The ripple effect is not water but a contrite spirit full of regret and sadness.


Etched on each stone is a question  carrying a negative name-


They quietly walked away, feeling shame, guilt, and pain for their behavior.


Redemption, a whispered promise, hung like a threadbare tapestry, 

its colors muted by doubt and

despair. 

It was a covenant, broken and mended like shattered glass pieced back together, 


the cracks still  visible, 


shimmering with the ghost of what was.


 But today, it is a testament to God's forgiveness for humanity.

A Journey of Faith Through Words

   @The Foundation  " In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth.  And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters, And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."   (Genesis 1:1-3  NKJV). Since the beginning of creation, words have been the building blocks of our realities, the instruments of our deepest desires, and the vessels of our most profound beliefs.

Words are tools for communication; they can illuminate our thoughts while simultaneously casting long, ominous shadows filled with hidden meanings and unintended consequences. Just as individuals embody both light and darkness, so too do words. They can uplift and empower but also manipulat...

"And he answering said, 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; the second is love thy neighbor as thyself."  Luke 10:27 (NKJV) @My GPS Is Broken Life often feels like a winding road, full of unexpected turns and detours. Although we may have a general destination, the path is rarely straightforward. In these moments of uncertainty, it's easy to rely on our limited understanding and navigate by the flickering lights of our limited wisdom. Is there a better way, a more reliable guide? Yes. Let Faith Be Your Compass!    The Bible offers profound wisdom for navigating Life's journey. Jesus summarizes the essence of the faith: Luke 10:27 (NKJV) "And he answering said, 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; the second is love thy neighbor as thyself." This framework resonates deeply...

From Dust To Redemption

Image
The Scene Unveiled Narrated by Creator John 8:5-11 NKJV Why Was She Being Stoned?   Her skin absorbed the courtyard dust and grit, but her shriveled hands and face contrasted sharply. "Adulteress!" A jagged stone made of words tore through the air before the crowd erupted into a roar. Suddenly, A chilling and cutting fear sliced through her burning cheeks filled with shame. Her vision was obscured due to age, and intense sunlight combined blurred her sight. The stones spread across the ground appeared to laugh at her misery while each represented instant death. The Law and It s E nforcers According to Jewish law, adultery represented a serious crime that resulted in the penalty of stoning. The Pharisees and scribes showed no primary interest in justice. This woman served as a tool for the scribes and Pharisees who aimed to trap Jesus. Their behavior demonstrated that their hearts were entirely devoted to legalism and completely lacked compassion. They sought to discover wheth...
