WALK AWAY….
In another world, maybe I would have done that
but….
Walk away like the lives of my begotten weighed less than a feather ?
Walk away like the injustice murdered on my spouse didn’t mutilate my purpose in life??
Walk away like the staggering irreverent slanders, mar, and stain do not concede below me???
WALK AWAY?…
The thought itself erupts vomit in my mouth. An unyielding request.
If I do not have revenge; how will I avenge their blood?
How does the court not have the discernment and optics to acknowledge that a criminal just walked away unscathed, sound as a bell with a nasty smug on his face?😡
“AN AVENGE!” I roar slicing the silence in the court
No longer an appeal.
If the court seems incompetent in appropriating the right judgement, then, that leaves the call for justice in my eager hands.
Successfully or rather cowardly, this horrendous murderer had framed my benign heart for a woeful crime and there I was rotting in prison for the manslaughter of my wife and kids. The irony baffles me.
My lawyer carefully lines his suitcase and files and heads home to dine and wine, happy and content with my money in his bounty account. Ready to squander and relish in the ambience that he singlehandedly signed my death warrant. I shake my head musing how I had chosen wrong. He promised infallibility, assured justice, and, even made a blood oath for assurance however, when the time came he folded. My jaw dropped in sheer bewilderment as he stabbed a 9-inch knife slowly into my trusting back.

You would have expected for a glittering hopeful second that I would have escaped the hellhole. Ran away from here for good. Pursued that wickedness in man form and being the one with a smug on my face right now. He who laughs last laughs best right? Conqueror at last! A fairytale exemplified. Thanks, but no thanks. Rather not, the punishment still bores on me. With the aimless time on my hands, I was given a chance to ponder on the essence of life.
“Where is the meaning of life if my life is not giving glory to the Maker?” 🌟
Yes.
Some of you may ask the infamous question, “Why would the Good Lord take away my family?”
The answer is, “The earth is the Lord and the fulness thereof. The creatures and his creations are all His. It is He that giveth who also can take back. And we are merely alive today because He breathes his breath into our lungs. Oxygen cannot be manufactured. Life cannot be manufactured. It is the Lord who gives and daily loads us with precious benefits. So, whatsoever the Lord does is good and works together for good to them that love the Lord.”
Hence the true question rings, “Do you LOVE the Lord? How well do you know your Maker?”
“Have you experienced the LOVE of God?”
“In sin did my mother conceive me- naturally, the body is flesh and is inclined to do what pleases it. Therefore, we often forget that we are not our own and we’re not created to fulfill self-purposes but rather the purpose of our Creator.”
Dear reader, we were all born in sin, but God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten son that whosoever believes on him should not perish but have everlasting life. Fulfilling flesh doesn’t please God hence making God displeased equal separation from your Maker. Pleasing God equals spending eternity with your Maker.
“The choice is yours. Attempt it. Accept Jesus.” “Say Lord Jesus I accept you; I believe in you. Come and make my life pleasing to you." Then watch miracles happen in your life
The lesson I learned: life is spiritual.
“God made you, therefore he is aware of everything that happens to you. Whatsoever happens to you physically has been determined in the spiritual, so to overcome challenges in this life you must be spiritual! You must have backing! You cannot do it alone. You need God. God needs you.”

The pungent, potent words of the immaculate preacher bellowed in my ears with each passing second. I chewed it, swallowed it, digested it, and, gained strength from it.
On a solemn Monday Eve, I closed my eyes and put my hands in God’s hands. Placed all my burdens onto my Maker cause my shoulders were sagging beneath them. He graciously took them and gave me his peace. Now, I’m confident that God is working all things out for me as I continue to please Him.
Forgiveness, they say is for the strong. You can call me that. Losing my peace over an ignorant man is not worth it. 'Vengeance is mine' saith the Lord. Ladies and gentlemen, I let God take the wheel.
Instead of a lifetime, the bars shatter before me. My sentence has been shortened. I’d been bailed. I’ll no longer suffer an eternity in hell cause Jesus has forgiven me and redeemed me from my sinful nature. I’m let out like a bird out of her cage. Blinding light causes me to flinch, still, my mouth stretches in joy unfathomable, and, my heart leaps like a racing horse; even the rain sheds tears of joy. As I make haste to leave, I pay one last glance.
A smug smile, no, a smug frown appears in my view; a fallen head and a disquiet spirit. You happen to plead as a half set of black teeth crown your vocal cavity and I stand there in shock, as your face blooms in view. There you are, in the cell beside me, bearing your punishment.
I hope you encounter God; exchange your guilt for His peace like I did, and die only once.
“Adieu!” I whisper
