Faith, not need, moves mountains.

unless You,
nothing.

-Gloria Valentine

Therefore, this is what the Lord says: If you return, I will restore you; you will stand in My presence. And if you speak noble [words], rather than worthless ones, you will be My spokesman. It is they who must return to you; you must not return to them.  

Then I will make you a fortified wall of bronze to this people. They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to save you and deliver you. [This is] the Lord's declaration.  

I will deliver you from the power of evil people and redeem you from the control of the ruthless. 

Jeremiah 15:19-21 CSB

The world plunders 
the vastness 
of the moment
the crown jewels 
it forsakes
for the pilfering 
of souls.

-Gloria Valentine

No matter how hard I try
I cannot hide
the sorrow and pain
you put
in my eyes.

And it is not okay
and I am not "okay".

For all your canards,
your apathy and
your complacency
there is no excuse. 

You have become 
deluded and diluted.

Fading into your own
delusions of grandeur.

Entangled in the snare of
your own deception.

- Gloria Valentine

Restraints and a muzzle 
make difficult 
the puzzle.
