I am a lifter.

I am an encourager.

I am a builder of my brother.

I am a minister of my sister.

I am an agent of hope to the downtrodden speaking words of inspiration about His freedom.

I am a promoter of grace, sharing words of deliverance to my war-worn sibling of the spirit.

I am a supporter of peace who chooses to use the mouth and the words God gives me to speak light, life, and love.

“…Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” Ephesians 4:29, NLT

The tide threatens
to subjugate me,
into fear I descend,
in catastrophic waters,
desolation without end!

I press into affliction,
allowing tears to stream,
enduring suffering,
to pursue
enlightened dreams!

My breath rasps within me,
