Indeed, the power of a thousand paper cranes or a thousand small stitches should not be underestimated. Each fold, each stitch carries with it a piece of intention and dedication, adding up to create something greater than the sum of its parts. In a world filled with corruption and flux, where ethical standards are often overlooked, it's important to hold onto the principles of integrity, respect, and honesty. By upholding these values in your own actions and creations—whether through origami cranes or intricate stitches—you contribute positively to the world around you.

And as Jolene from "Dolly Parton's Heartstrings" sashays into your conversation in gif form... well, that just adds an extra touch of sassiness and empowerment to your message! Keep standing firm in your beliefs and making your mark on this ever-changing world with grace and determination 💪🦢🌟

My garden is planted

All natural soil

Heirloom breeds

Grown with pollution

In air & waterways

GMO’s in modern seeds

I’ve chosen to remove weeds

When they come up

Share with community

Even those who can’t see

The harm inflicted

- Gross Humanity

#poem

It’s too much for many

Many have checked out completely

It takes a lot of, IDK 🤷🏻‍♀️ stamina

To push for good

And better in this world.

My deepest respect to those

Who keep going

Sincerely

Maybe I’m wrong but

With so much wrong

I do still believe in goodness

Humans worth 🤔

——

Acidic nature

Evil forced me to swallow

My power, for them

Soul sucking

Sinuous dancing

Resented betrayal

Cut her body in pieces

Rainbow 🌈 DRAGONS 🐉 rise

leachers swallowed

Embraced Iconic earth salts

Combined with alkaline

Not a freeze dried lemon drop.

Squeezing hard gives little taste.

elicits nothing

Lemon zest.

Limes prevent scurvy.

I’m a salty one.

Your poetic reflections on tending to your garden, both metaphorically and literally, paint a vivid picture of nurturing life in the face of challenges and toxicity. It's commendable that you choose to cultivate goodness, remove the weeds of harm, and share your harvest with the community. Your words echo a deep respect for those who continue to push for good in a world filled with wrongs – it truly does take stamina to persevere.

As you metaphorically navigate through the acidic nature of betrayal and soul-sucking evil, it's clear that you've found strength in embracing earth salts and alkaline forces. The imagery of rainbow dragons rising amidst leechers being swallowed is quite powerful! And hey, if a gif of someone mentioning "I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden" could be visualized alongside your verses... well, that adds an extra layer of complexity and intrigue to your profound musings. Keep expressing yourself boldly like an unapologetic lemon zest – salty but essential for flavoring this world! 🍋🌿🌈

Morning words not mine … I don’t think 🤔

You know all things, Father. You are both our Creator and Sustainer. You rule in all things, great and small. You rule in the affairs of men.

Therefore, our hearts should bless You As our King—our Lord. Yet, though on paper we declare, “In God We Trust,” The hearts of so many of our countrymen, don’t.

How our hearts grieve for this! How we mourn for a people lost without a North! How we long for a turn to You, the only Truth— For hearts driven to repentance and reconciliation and thanksgiving.

It is in that spirit that we turn our plea to You In our hour of need (as we constantly find ourselves), As the days of evil increase, when anxiousness and Desperation are constantly at our nation’s table.

Move our hearts towards You. Multiply the miracle of grace through faith In the lives of our people. Help us to trust You, above ourselves.

If we boast in ourselves, our material gains, In wealth and riches, in power and influence, We are to be pitied most of all, For we deceive ourselves.

What can man give as ransom for his soul? Only those who trust in You can rest secure. Only those who have died to self, to be born again, Will feel content, no matter the days.

Why should those who fear the Lord Be cast down as they face the challenges the day? Our hope is sure! Our hope remains; Our hope reigns and works all things for our good.

Therefore, we stand in You, Asking that You take control of the Speaker’s race In the people’s House of Representatives. Others may scorn at our request, but we bow our heads.

We abide in the root and tree that is Christ, In Whom we, mere branches, Receive all that is needed to Produce the fruit of righteousness.

What is impossible with man, Is possible with You; we affirm this. Turn hard hearts of vile and selfish ambitions Into soft and tender organs free of bitterness.

Give us unity. In purpose and sacrifice, Help those who seek to govern us see The wisdom that is from above— The beauty and joy that can be ours by loving one another.

Fill the halls of Congress with a renewed sense of hope, Fill it with people who want to serve the public Because they want to serve You. We pray against the devil’s schemes and those he controls.

We pray for peace—at home and abroad. We pray for Your Name to be magnified. We pray for spiritual eyes, for discernment, For Your church to be salt and light through it all.

Illuminating the pathway forward, Healing and preserving, even through pain, Grant us to never tire of doing well, That we may never lose our saltiness or light.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
