• Silent Warrior

    He rides the horse through endless skies,
    his shadow merging where the eagle flies.
    A spear that gleams like a vow untold,
    to guard the land, the hearts it holds.

    No one hears the tears he hides,
    only fire burning in his eyes.
    Upon his shoulders, ancestors rest,
    their whispered oaths beat in his chest.

    Though mist and time may veil the ground,
    He keeps the sacred circle bound.
    For this land is blood and flame,
    a spirit that shall not wane.

    O silent warrior, lone and true,
    the winds still carry your promise through.
    To guard this earth, both root and wing,
    forever bound to the sacred ring.

  • Warrior & Her Horse

    She wears the sun upon her face,
    a mark of strength, a sacred trace.
    No storm can break, no night can bind,
    the fire that lives within her mind.

    Her horse stands steady, fierce and true,
    together they’ve walked the earth they knew.
    The soil remembers each step, each vow;
    Her spirit guards the present now.

    She is no shadow, she will not fall,
    her love for the land outshines it all.
    A warrior woman, proud and free,
    the earth is hers, eternally.

  • Psalms
    Chapter 56

    1 (To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath.) Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

    2 Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

    3 What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

    4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

    5 Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.

    6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

    7 Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.

    8 Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

    9 When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.

    10 In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.

    11 In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

    12 Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

    13 For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?


    Psalms
    Chapter 57

    1 (To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave.) Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.

    2 I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.

    3 He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.

    4 My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.

    5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.

    6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.

    7 My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.

    8 Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.

    9 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.

    10 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.

    11 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.



    Psalms
    Chapter 58

    1 (To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David.) Do ye indeed speak righteousness, O congregation? do ye judge uprightly, O ye sons of men?

    2 Yea, in heart ye work wickedness; ye weigh the violence of your hands in the earth.

    3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

    4 Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear;

    5 Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

    6 Break their teeth, O God, in their mouth: break out the great teeth of the young lions, O LORD.

    7 Let them melt away as waters which run continually: when he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in pieces.

    8 As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away: like the untimely birth of a woman, that they may not see the sun.

    9 Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away as with a whirlwind, both living, and in his wrath.

    10 The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

    11 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth.

  • Lost in the shadow of the tragic shooting of Charlie Kirk yesterday was another shooting that took place at a school. In Evergreen, CO, a student at Evergreen High School shot two others and turned the gun on himself. The "suspect" apparently died. One of the other students remains hospitalized in critical condition, while the other was released with non-life-threatening injuries.

    Evil is overwhelming our country, and it is because America at large has rejected God and the saving grace found only in His Son Jesus Christ.

    Repent and turn to God. We need to repent as a nation. Only He can change our situation. We have become as Sodom and Gomorrah, but now must become like Nineveh:

    "Then the people of Nineveh believed in God; and they called a fast and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least of them. When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the ashes. He issued a proclamation and it said, 'In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water. But both man and beast must be covered with sackcloth; and let men call on God earnestly that each may turn from his wicked way and from the violence which is in his hands. Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish.'
    When God saw their deeds, that they turned from their wicked way, then God relented concerning the calamity which He had declared He would bring upon them. And He did not do it."
    - Jonah 3:5-10

  • Psalms
    Chapter 44

    1 (To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, Maschil.) We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.

    2 How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.

    3 For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.

    4 Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.

    5 Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.

    6 For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.

    7 But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.

    8 In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.

    9 But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.

    10 Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.

    11 Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.

    12 Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.

    13 Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.

    14 Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.

    15 My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,

    16 For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.

    17 All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.

    18 Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;

    19 Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.

    20 If we have forgotten the name of our God, or stretched out our hands to a strange god;

    21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.

    22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

    23 Awake, why sleepest thou, O Lord? arise, cast us not off for ever.

    24 Wherefore hidest thou thy face, and forgettest our affliction and our oppression?

    25 For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth.

    26 Arise for our help, and redeem us for thy mercies' sake.

  • Believer, it is true that God does not tempt us, but He does at times test us. Just as the smith smelts away the dross from silver, so God uses trials to smelt away the dross from our lives. Such is the process of sanctification.

    God would have us holy and wholly devoted to Him. Whether we are encumbered by sin, or our fruitfulness is being choked out by the cares of this world, our testing fortifies our faith and purifies our lives.

    Our faith is more precious than gold, and its testing by fire is to "result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ" (1 Pet. 1:7).

    James tells us to count such trials as joy, because we go through them for our benefit, that we might be "perfect and complete" (Jas. 1:2-4).

    Listen to the words of God given through the prophet Zechariah regarding Israel:

    "'It will come about in all the land,'
    Declares the LORD,
    'That two parts in it will be cut off and perish;
    But the third will be left in it.
    'And I will bring the third part through the fire,
    Refine them as silver is refined,
    And test them as gold is tested.
    They will call on My name,
    And I will answer them;
    I will say, ‘They are My people,’
    And they will say, ‘The LORD is my God.’"

    This is how God treats His chosen ones. So in your trials, do not despair. The end result will far outshadow the short-lived difficulty of any testing.
    ------------

    Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions

    Evening, September 3

    "The Lord trieth the righteous." Psalm 11:5

    All events are under the control of Providence; consequently all the trials of our outward life are traceable at once to the great First Cause. Out of the golden gate of God's ordinance the armies of trial march forth in array, clad in their iron armour, and armed with weapons of war. All providences are doors to trial. Even our mercies, like roses, have their thorns. Men may be drowned in seas of prosperity as well as in rivers of affliction. Our mountains are not too high, and our valleys are not too low for temptations: trials lurk on all roads. Everywhere, above and beneath, we are beset and surrounded with dangers. Yet no shower falls unpermitted from the threatening cloud; every drop has its order ere it hastens to the earth. The trials which come from God are sent to prove and strengthen our graces, and so at once to illustrate the power of divine grace, to test the genuineness of our virtues, and to add to their energy. Our Lord in His infinite wisdom and superabundant love, sets so high a value upon His people's faith that He will not screen them from those trials by which faith is strengthened. You would never have possessed the precious faith which now supports you if the trial of your faith had not been like unto fire. You are a tree that never would have rooted so well if the wind had not rocked you to and fro, and made you take firm hold upon the precious truths of the covenant grace. Worldly ease is a great foe to faith; it loosens the joints of holy valour, and snaps the sinews of sacred courage. The balloon never rises until the cords are cut; affliction doth this sharp service for believing souls. While the wheat sleeps comfortably in the husk it is useless to man, it must be threshed out of its resting place before its value can be known. Thus it is well that Jehovah trieth the righteous, for it causeth them to grow rich towards God.

    Chapter 36

    1 (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.) The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.

    2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

    3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.

    4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.

    5 Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.

    6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast.

    7 How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.

    8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.

    9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.

    10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.

    11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.

    12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.

  • Brethren, are you bearing fruit for God? We were joined to Christ for this purpose (Rom. 7:4). He chose us for this (Jn. 15:16), and if we abide in Him, we will bear fruit (Jn. 15:5). There is more than one way in which the metaphor of fruit is used, including that of being used to bring others to Christ. The most evident in our everyday lives, however, are the fruits of the Spirit, which are "love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control" (Gal. 5:22). This fruit is sweet, and those of us who know God have tasted and know that the Lord is good (Ps. 34:8).
    ----------

    Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, August 25

    "His fruit was sweet to my taste." Song of Solomon 2:3

    Faith, in the Scripture, is spoken of under the emblem of all the senses. It is sight: "Look unto me and be ye saved." It is hearing: "Hear, and your soul shall live." Faith is smelling: "All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia"; "thy name is as ointment poured forth." Faith is spiritual touch. By this faith the woman came behind and touched the hem of Christ's garment, and by this we handle the things of the good word of life. Faith is equally the spirit's taste. "How sweet are Thy words to my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my lips." "Except a man eat my flesh," saith Christ, "and drink my blood, there is no life in him."

    This "taste" is faith in one of its highest operations. One of the first performances of faith is hearing. We hear the voice of God, not with the outward ear alone, but with the inward ear; we hear it as God's Word, and we believe it to be so; that is the "hearing" of faith. Then our mind looketh upon the truth as it is presented to us; that is to say, we understand it, we perceive its meaning; that is the "seeing" of faith. Next we discover its preciousness; we begin to admire it, and find how fragrant it is; that is faith in its " smell." Then we appropriate the mercies which are prepared for us in Christ; that is faith in its "touch." Hence follow the enjoyments, peace, delight, communion; which are faith in its "taste." Any one of these acts of faith is saving. To hear Christ's voice as the sure voice of God in the soul will save us; but that which gives true enjoyment is the aspect of faith wherein Christ, by holy taste, is received into us, and made, by inward and spiritual apprehension of His sweetness and preciousness, to be the food of our souls. It is then we sit "under His shadow with great delight," and find His fruit sweet to our taste.
    Brethren, are you bearing fruit for God? We were joined to Christ for this purpose (Rom. 7:4). He chose us for this (Jn. 15:16), and if we abide in Him, we will bear fruit (Jn. 15:5). There is more than one way in which the metaphor of fruit is used, including that of being used to bring others to Christ. The most evident in our everyday lives, however, are the fruits of the Spirit, which are "love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control" (Gal. 5:22). This fruit is sweet, and those of us who know God have tasted and know that the Lord is good (Ps. 34:8). ---------- Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions Morning, August 25 "His fruit was sweet to my taste." Song of Solomon 2:3 Faith, in the Scripture, is spoken of under the emblem of all the senses. It is sight: "Look unto me and be ye saved." It is hearing: "Hear, and your soul shall live." Faith is smelling: "All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia"; "thy name is as ointment poured forth." Faith is spiritual touch. By this faith the woman came behind and touched the hem of Christ's garment, and by this we handle the things of the good word of life. Faith is equally the spirit's taste. "How sweet are Thy words to my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my lips." "Except a man eat my flesh," saith Christ, "and drink my blood, there is no life in him." This "taste" is faith in one of its highest operations. One of the first performances of faith is hearing. We hear the voice of God, not with the outward ear alone, but with the inward ear; we hear it as God's Word, and we believe it to be so; that is the "hearing" of faith.

  • In the midst of his lament, the author of Lamentations finds hope. He acknowledges God's righteousness fidelity and commitment to His people. He writes:

    "The Lord's lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness" (Lamentations 3:22-23, NASB).

    In other translations, "compassions" is translated "mercies."

    Christian, do you see and recognize in your life the new mercies God bestows upon you daily? Are you able, in the midst of your troubles, to look to the Lord and thank Him for His faithfulness? After all, "God is not a man that He should lie, nor a son of man that He should repent; has He said and will He not do it? Or has He spoken and will He not make it good?" (Numbers 23:19)

    Believer, in all circumstances, remember the mercies, undeserved, we receive from Him each day and sing with the hymn writer of God's faithfulness!
    -------------

    Great is Thy Faithfulness

    Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
    There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
    Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
    As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

    Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”
    Morning by morning new mercies I see;
    All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
    “Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

    Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
    Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
    Join with all nature in manifold witness
    To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

    Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!” Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided— “Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

    Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
    Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
    Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
    Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

  • At one time or another in our lives, most of us have experienced what it is like to be lovesick, to long for the one with whom we wish to draw close. Believer, does your heart long for Jesus in this manner? Do you seek after him? Do you recruit others in your search? Brethren, let us not leave our first love, as did the Church at Ephesus (Rev. 2). Let us seek Him with all our hearts, for then we shall find Him (Deut. 4:29; Jer. 29:13).

    "I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love." Song of Solomon 5:8

    Such is the language of the believer panting after present fellowship with Jesus, he is sick for his Lord. Gracious souls are never perfectly at ease except they are in a state of nearness to Christ; for when they are away from Him they lose their peace. The nearer to Him, the nearer to the perfect calm of heaven; the nearer to Him, the fuller the heart is, not only of peace, but of life, and vigour, and joy, for these all depend on constant intercourse with Jesus. What the sun is to the day, what the moon is to the night, what the dew is to the flower, such is Jesus Christ to us. What bread is to the hungry, clothing to the naked, the shadow of a great rock to the traveller in a weary land, such is Jesus Christ to us; and, therefore, if we are not consciously one with Him, little marvel if our spirit cries in the words of the Song, "I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, tell Him that I am sick of love. "This earnest longing after Jesus has a blessing attending it: "Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after righteousness"; and therefore, supremely blessed are they who thirst after the Righteous One. Blessed is that hunger, since it comes from God: if I may not have the full-blown blessedness of being filled, I would seek the same blessedness in its sweet bud-pining in emptiness and eagerness till I am filled with Christ. If I may not feed on Jesus, it shall be next door to heaven to hunger and thirst after Him. There is a hallowedness about that hunger, since it sparkles among the beatitudes of our Lord. But the blessing involves a promise. Such hungry ones "shall be filled" with what they are desiring. If Christ thus causes us to long after Himself, He will certainly satisfy those longings; and when He does come to us, as come He will, oh, how sweet it will be!

  • Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions

    Morning, August 6

    "Watchman, what of the night?" Isaiah 21:11

    What enemies are abroad? Errors are a numerous horde, and new ones appear every hour: against what heresy am I to be on my guard? Sins creep from their lurking places when the darkness reigns; I must myself mount the watch-tower, and watch unto prayer. Our heavenly Protector foresees all the attacks which are about to be made upon us, and when as yet the evil designed us is but in the desire of Satan, He prays for us that our faith fail not, when we are sifted as wheat. Continue O gracious Watchman, to forewarn us of our foes, and for Zion's sake hold not thy peace.

    "Watchman, what of the night?" What weather is coming for the Church? Are the clouds lowering, or is it all clear and fair overhead? We must care for the Church of God with anxious love; and now that Popery and infidelity are both threatening, let us observe the signs of the times and prepare for conflict.

    "Watchman, what of the night?" What stars are visible?What precious promises suit our present case? You sound the alarm, give us the consolation also. Christ, the polestar, is ever fixed in His place, and all the stars are secure in the right hand of their Lord.

    But watchman, when comes the morning? The Bridegroom tarries. Are there no signs of His coming forth as the Sun of Righteousness? Has not the morning star arisen as the pledge of day? When will the day dawn, and the shadows flee away? O Jesus, if Thou come not in person to Thy waiting Church this day, yet come in Spirit to my sighing heart, and make it sing for joy.

    "Now all the earth is bright and glad
    With the fresh morn;
    But all my heart is cold, and dark and sad:
    Sun of the soul, let me behold Thy dawn!
    Come, Jesus, Lord,
    O quickly come, according to Thy word."

  • Whisperwing, the Spirit of Night Blooms

    Long ago, when the Earth was young and the stars were still learning to dance, there lived a guardian spirit named Whisperwing, a sacred night butterfly born of moonlight and flower dreams. Her wings shimmered with the glow of dusk, painted in deep blues and violets—colors only seen in the quietest part of night.

    Whisperwing was created by Lunoma, the Moon Maiden, to carry messages between the spirit world and the dreams of the living. She fluttered through midnight meadows and across sleeping forests, her wings stirring wind that whispered secrets into flowers, guiding lost souls home.

    Every petal she touched would bloom with sacred light, and every shadow she passed through would remember her path. The stars watched her in awe, calling her "The Silent Flame", for she burned with no fire, but illuminated hearts.

    It was said that if you saw Whisperwing in your dreams, your soul was being chosen—for healing, for transformation, or for a journey. Elders taught that when the crescent moon rose high and the air smelled of wild lavender, you must leave a bowl of water and flowers by your door. If Whisperwing passed, the petals would float, and a new path would open in your life by morning.

    To this day, her legend lives on. Many Native dreamweavers still embroider her wings onto their blankets and sing to her under starlit skies:

    "Fly, Whisperwing, through sky and root,
    Bearer of truth on violet flute.
    Where moonlight dances, there you roam,
    Guide our spirit gently home."

    And so she flies—forever between the veil of night and bloom, unseen, yet always felt.

  • Moon Sister, Wolf Brother

    She stood in the tall grass as the golden moon rose behind her, not as a stranger to the land — but as part of its song.

    Her name was Ahyoka, meaning “she brings happiness.” But tonight, her spirit was solemn. It was the night of the Long Moon, when stories walked on wind and ancestors whispered through fur and feather.

    Beside her stood the great wolf, eyes reflecting the same fire that burned in hers. He was not a pet, not a beast, but her brother in soul — the one who taught her to listen with silence and move with knowing.

    Together, they watched the horizon. The world did not speak in words, but in breath, in shadow, in pulse. Her braid carried prayers, her skin carried symbols, her heart carried promise.

    And the wolf?

    He carried the wild. The truth. The bond that could never be broken.

    They did not need to speak.
    The moon had already told them everything.

  • Job
    Chapter 8

    1 Then answered Bildad the Shuhite, and said,

    2 How long wilt thou speak these things? and how long shall the words of thy mouth be like a strong wind?

    3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

    4 If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression;

    5 If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, and make thy supplication to the Almighty;

    6 If thou wert pure and upright; surely now he would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

    7 Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.

    8 For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

    9 (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow:)

    10 Shall not they teach thee, and tell thee, and utter words out of their heart?

    11 Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

    12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb.

    13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

    14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web.

    15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

    16 He is green before the sun, and his branch shooteth forth in his garden.

    17 His roots are wrapped about the heap, and seeth the place of stones.

    18 If he destroy him from his place, then it shall deny him, saying, I have not seen thee.

    19 Behold, this is the joy of his way, and out of the earth shall others grow.

    20 Behold, God will not cast away a perfect man, neither will he help the evil doers:

    21 Till he fill thy mouth with laughing, and thy lips with rejoicing.

    22 They that hate thee shall be clothed with shame; and the dwelling place of the wicked shall come to nought.

  • The Celestial Stallion

    In the ancient lands where the sky meets the earth, there was a legendary horse named Awen. His coat was as dark as the midnight sky, and his body was adorned with glowing symbols, marks of a spiritual connection to the stars above. It was said that Awen was the descendant of the first horses, the ones who were born from the stars to guide the spirits of the earth.

    On the night of the Great Alignment, when the stars aligned perfectly with the mountain peaks, Awen would stand alone on the highest cliff, his body glowing with the colors of the cosmos. The glowing symbols on his body were said to be ancient constellations, and each one represented a different element of life — the sun, the moon, the earth, the spirit. It was through these symbols that Awen connected with the universe, acting as a bridge between the celestial and earthly realms.

    This night, the air was thick with magic, and the sky shimmered with the light of countless stars. Awen stood proudly, his mane flowing like the river of time, while a stream of glowing energy moved across the land. As the moon rose high above, he let out a soft whinny, and the ground beneath his hooves began to glow in response. It was the sacred path of his ancestors, a path that led toward the unknown, a path of discovery.

    As Awen trotted forward, the trail of stardust behind him formed a glowing river, flowing through the valley like a beam of light. The people, the animals, and the spirits watched in awe, for they knew this was a journey that could only be taken by one chosen by the stars.

    Awen's journey was not just a physical one, but a spiritual journey. He carried the hopes, dreams, and wisdom of all who had come before him. The night was his canvas, and the stars, his guide. As the glowing symbols danced on his body, they painted a story of life, of connection, of light and shadow — a reminder that we are all part of the same cosmic dance, guided by the spirit of the earth and the stars.

  • Job
    Chapter 3

    1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day.

    2 And Job spake, and said,

    3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived.

    4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.

    5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.

    6 As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.

    7 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein.

    8 Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.

    9 Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day:

    10 Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes.

    11 Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly?

    12 Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck?

    13 For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest,

    14 With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves;

    15 Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver:

    16 Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.

    17 There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest.

    18 There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor.

    19 The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master.

    20 Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul;

    21 Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

    22 Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave?

    23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in?

    24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters.

    25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me.

    26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.
    Job Chapter 3 1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. 2 And Job spake, and said, 3 Let the day perish wherein I was born, and the night in which it was said, There is a man child conceived. 4 Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it. 5 Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it. 6 As for that night, let darkness seize upon it; let it not be joined unto the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months. 7 Lo, let that night be solitary, let no joyful voice come therein. 8 Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning. 9 Let the stars of the twilight thereof be dark; let it look for light, but have none; neither let it see the dawning of the day: 10 Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid sorrow from mine eyes. 11 Why died I not from the womb? why did I not give up the ghost when I came out of the belly? 12 Why did the knees prevent me? or why the breasts that I should suck? 13 For now should I have lain still and been quiet, I should have slept: then had I been at rest, 14 With kings and counsellors of the earth, which built desolate places for themselves; 15 Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver: 16 Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light. 17 There the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. 18 There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. 19 The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master. 20 Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto the bitter in soul; 21 Which long for death, but it cometh not; and dig for it more than for hid treasures; 22 Which rejoice exceedingly, and are glad, when they can find the grave? 23 Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, and whom God hath hedged in? 24 For my sighing cometh before I eat, and my roarings are poured out like the waters. 25 For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid of is come unto me. 26 I was not in safety, neither had I rest, neither was I quiet; yet trouble came.

  • Woven in Color

    Not just colors—
    but prayers woven in red ochre,
    stories told in turquoise light,
    songs etched in the black of night
    and the white of sacred snow.

    Each thread is a direction.
    Each hue is a spirit.
    Yellow—the rising sun,
    a path for beginnings.
    Blue—the sky’s breath,
    where eagles soar with names unspoken.
    Red—the blood of earth and kin,
    still pulsing in the drums.
    Black—the depth of knowing,
    the shadow that teaches.
    White—the light of silence,
    where ancestors sit and listen.

    These are not ornaments—
    they are memory.
    They are warning.
    They are blessing.
    A cloak of cosmos,
    wrapped around a people
    who dance,
    even when the world forgets their song.
