 Voices of the Lord

Part, Cherokee Indian




I was born
part Cherokee Indian,
my Grams was full blood, on this earth

Up until this
moment in time,
I did not see my value or my worth.
 
I did not
understand, why
I had so much pain inside

I wanted to run away
from it, make it cease
and to hide.
 
When
I see a person
mistreated something
arises in me

I want
to run
and help them
and show them they are free.
 
While roller skating,
in Alabama
that white girl
spit in the face of the black,

I was so angry
and
appalled,
my boyfriend
had to hold me back.
 
Thank God
the times have changed
from those days back then,

But many of us today,
hold hatred in our heart,
because of the color of our skin.
 
It is time,
to let go of and
put down the rage that is
inside of you

I am so sorry
you have been hurt
so badly and please forgive us too.
 
We humans
have done so much
damage while on the earth

God
is setting up
His Kingdom and
we will see
rebirth.
 
The earth
is the Lords
and
all its fullness
therein

He wants us
to make
changes
now! and
walk away from sin.
 
Please
do not take
this word lightly
He has sent me to you

He wants
to set you free
from the pain and
give you a new life too.

1 Kings 8:56-61
 56 "Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest
to His people Israel, according to all that He promised.
There has not failed one word
of all His good promise,
which He promised through His servant Moses.
57 May the Lord our God be with us,
as He was with our fathers.
May He not leave us nor forsake us,
58 that He may incline our hearts
to Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep
His commandments and His statutes and His judgments,
which He commanded our fathers.
59 And may these words of mine,
with which I have made supplication before the Lord,
be near the Lord our God day and night,
that He may maintain the cause of His servant
and the cause of His people Israel,
as each day may require,
60 that all the peoples of the earth
may know that the Lord is God; there is no other.
61 Let your heart therefore
be loyal to the Lord our God, to walk
in His statutes and keep His commandments,
as at this day."
