I get hit over and over again by this worlds temptations,Lust,Lies when they can't break your Spirit they tempt you with there friendships they just hate it when you don't fall. They hate it if you say No while they all wish in there hearts that they to would have the guts to stand up and be counted.

    Thank you brotha who spoke these words. Thank you for picking up the gospel and opening ur mouth to speak the very utterances of the Spirit. Thank you in a time where many women are hurt and discouraged at the lack of men willing to pick up the gospel in the way they relate to them. Men willing to kill their pride and sacrifice their very life to love and honor and cherish their sister, their own sister! Thank you for the reminder that God has to move on the heart of a man so he can hear.
