"Whatever doesn't kill you knows who you belong to." 🕊️🕊️🕊️
When she started I was like nope nope this is blasphemy but something urged me to watch until the end. She has a way with words. This is amazing. Think about found my favorite poem
Same until I heard the retort.
Same here!!
It’s so sad that so many of y’all that claim and call yourself Christians or God-fearing believers do that, y’all so quick to jump to judgment and conclusions of others that don’t speak or act like you do🙄🫤 Even if she did continue to speak “blasphemy” or the way she started to the very end with no retort… compassion would’ve been the key🔑
When she started, I was like, "Girl I feel your pain". Then she reminded me of who God is! 🕊🕊🕊
That's why it's called poetry 😂
“Seek My face before the works of My hands” and “and what doesn’t kill you, knows who you belong to” hits sooo hard. Such an amazing piece of art.
truth be told the first half reflects realistic thoughts n convers that we humans have n we dont admit them .i love her guts
The first part shows how sinful our hearts are to ever think to Judge God's good character. God always does what is righteous and perfect. Job rebuked his wife for talking like the first part. I'm glad she turned the corner here.
Amen....first half is like battle in my mind and second half is like God is calming me....♥️
Amazing 🤩
What doesn't kill you knows who you belong to😍
Don't know what tomorrow holds but know who tomorrow
BOOM!!!
This is super and touching. You know there are many times my sister almost gave up on God because she felt he wasn't answering all our prayers, sometimes I felt same. But God is always God. He knows the right time
I sobbed listening to this, I have felt so much pain in my short lifetime, this resonated with me deeply. I turned my back on Jesus in my darkest hours when I should’ve been running into His already open arms. He is relentless with His love and mercy. I love you Jesus!
i thought she was gonna say bad things about god the whole time but she didnt , her way of words are really good
and motivational.
she might be a true inspiration to others
This poem, is definitely the best I've ever seen my whole life.
I almost gave upon it, but something urged my to watch until the end
💚💙💞
😢😢😢 ❤❤❤I only stayed listening so I rebuke and pray against the condemnation to God n asking for repentance for me n her Kanti it's the Holy Spirit whom is leading me to finish the watching cz it's the most powerful presentation of our reality with our walk with God we fall n rise in Him we doubt and anger to Him but His relentless love and persuit for Him to us knows no end ...wow young lady this is powerful I'm going to dance to it
My heart cried like a baby after this. So beautifully said!
God is faithful and good all the time!
Thank you for such a beautiful message. It's so real. Sometimes we feel God is the one hurting us and we become so blinded until we see we're the ones hurting him. Yet still, he is so good and just those two words. BE STILL. So powerful, thank you.
'find God before you find everything' His Word says........ WE BLESSED WITH THIS MASTERPIECE, GOD BLESS
I don’t know how to feel about this poem 😭😭😭 the creativity, the twist, the reciting, the powerful words this is everything oh my God❤️🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's impressive how much power spoken words hold. You saved my faith with this piece. ❤✊
I bet God is smiling over this master piece 🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏
I have always loved this poem from when I first saw it years ago. And now, I will commend the editor who added the lyrics, music, and sound design. Mahn, so good!
Feel this deep many days and it's good to be real with God. He appreciates that. The realness within.
You wrote second half in Heaven. Oh Lord you know how much I needed to hear that right now😭❤️🛐
Ohhh damn😮😮😮 this is a next level masterpiece of literature 🤩🤩 wow it's just 👌👌👌
She has passion!
This is about the best Spoken Word piece I've watched in recent times...its so amazing.. Kudos girl
This is way too beautiful not to be shared 😭😭😭 Honestly brought me to tears😭💖❣
So sad that we cant find your youtube channel after all this years... Nice piece though,would have liked to watch more from you so sad this is the only one i find
I'm not Christian, but it's times like this that I wish I was. Having that solid belief to fall back on in hard times must be incredible.
It doesn't have to end at it being a wish, he is always ready for you to come to him
@@JBNyathi I've tried, lmao. But every time I try, I can't stop thinking 'nope this is bull'. I can't make myself believe it.
What a beautiful piece! Whenever I get discouraged and feel like giving up,I just remember the death of Jesus on the cross that he paid it all for me..
This is magnanimous, incredible and super duper in preaching the gospel of God's faithfulness. May Almighty God blesses and enlarge your coast in all ramifications.
Whatever doesn't kill you, know who you belong to.
Wooooow .... I'm touched.... What a sermon #halleluja ....🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Hallelujah praise the Lord! What an amazing masterpiece this is. I've watched and listened to many spoken poetry before but so far this is the best of all. God bless
I'm crying
This is raw and beautiful ❤️
This is outstanding brilliance and blessing.
Pain, Sorrow, Grief , Fear, Anger, Loneliness, Bitterness : all temporary-His Love: ETERNAL! Faith is the key. Endure☝️
Hallelujah! 🕊️🕊️🕊️
thank for being completly honest! a lot of times we can't be honest with each other without people judging. the first part is relatable for me since i split from God for multiple days, but then i came back!
So powerful.. She is talented
Cried through this ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank God for His Holy love
So very touching. You are truly gifted. I pray many blessings upon you.
This poem has taught me to calm down and listen before judging.

Ohh...I feel the pain when decide to let go. As if you were speaking to me when I was worried and I was suffering but anyway I wanted to give up on God but my heart was strong to embrace fears and the doubts.

Amen 🙏🏼
