I have a Dream...



+

not white
not black

but Perfect Yellow Flowers
Full of Light
Daring the darkness to defy them

Tenaciously Trumpeting
Refusing to be bested
Blasting Their Beauty

against the ugliness,

which, for all its raging in this world
Will Not Succeed
in silencing

Their Still
Small
Thunder

+

"We do not war against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the powers, 
against the world forces of this present darkness,
against the spiritual forces of wickedness
in the heavenly supernatural places."
-Ephesians 6:12

That small thunder reaches all the way over to here. Glad to hear it. Lovely photo, too.

Authority over us can only happen if we allow it. If we refuse, they have no authority
