Pillows wet Today’s dusk to tomorrow’s dawn And all the suns in between Today, tomorrow, yesterday…all the same No season was safe The mental self-harm, profuse How could the world not see the scars…fresh blood Seeking validation The need to fill a God-sized heart hole Led her to all the wrong places, humans, things Just […]

Hello Women of Warfare friends and followers,
I came across this beautiful, heartfelt poem, which immediately made me think of the prodigal daughters and lost lambs in God’s kingdom.
When I refer to lost lambs I am not necessarily speaking about those who have turned their back upon God, or walked away from their faith.
I am referring to those who may be attending church yet do not feel as if they are a part of the body of Christ because either they’ve been rejected by their brothers and sisters in Christ, or they’ve not made any meaningful relationships. I also refer to those who may have been hurt by leadership, felt misunderstood, or been wrongly accused.
And then there are those who have become disillusioned with their faith, or those who still maintain their confidence in Christ but wish to distance themselves from church life for personal reasons.
To all such lost lambs and segregated sheep, Jesus, who is the Good Shepherd and Overseer of your souls, is standing at the door of your hearts asking you to let him into those areas of hurt and doubt, confusion, even bitterness, so he can tend to your wounds, heal your hurts and make you whole.
Yes, his message to all such prodigal daughters is: Come Home!
I hope this blogger’s beautiful poem will encourage you to respond to Christ’s call and return to his sheepfold.
With love,

OMG! Carol I was so much confused. I was browsing the blog from top to bottom but could not find one single post I had read and commented.
Please do not mistake me what was the reason to have two blogs….
Regards💞🌷

Well because my aim for each is different and I was concerned if I combined them that I may run out of space so I thought I should keep them separate.
