The Second Exodus Prophecy
The long-prophesied Second Exodus is drawing near—a powerful promise from Yahweh that echoes the miraculous deliverance of the Israelites from Egypt. This time, however, it will be on a global scale, not confined to Egypt, but encompassing the entire world. Just as Yahweh awakened the dry bones in the vision given to Ezekiel (Ezekiel 37:1-14), He is about to awaken the "dry bones" of His people in America and throughout the nations. This will be a literal and physical supernatural event, gathering His people from every corner of the earth back to Him.
It is crucial to recognize that many so-called black people in America and other parts of the world are, in fact, the lost descendants of Israel—the scattered tribes of Yahweh’s chosen people. The Bible prophesies the scattering of Israel due to disobedience, but it also promises their eventual return. Deuteronomy 28:64 foretells, “The Lord will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other.” This scattering led to

Fan Art Friday: Blue Eye Samurai by AlexanderPaupoff, journal
Fan Art Friday: Blue Eye Samurai
Blue Eye Samurai on Netflix is a visually striking animated series with a gripping storyline, unique characters, and powerful themes like identity, honour, and vengeance.
Set in Edo-era Japan, the eponymous blue-eyed samurai, Mizu, embarks on a relentless quest for vengeance. In a society that values purity and conformity above all else, the mixed-race Mizu is an outcast, experiencing deep-rooted prejudice and abuse at every turn. Demonised by society, Mizu's insatiable need for revenge against those responsible for her origin begins to threaten her very humanity.
This week's Fan Art Friday feature pays tribute to Mizu's unforgettable journey - her strength, determination, and vulnerability - with some amazing fan art created by the community.
An artist gives all they have to the art, the whole. Your strengths and deficiencies, your loves and shames. Perhaps the people you collected. - The Swordfather
If one god forsakes you, another one will help you.

Fan Art Fridays: Fall Photography by KovoWolf, journal
Fan Art Fridays: Fall Photography
"Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go."
THE CHANGE IN SEASON
Autumn in the wilderness unfurls like a grand symphony, each leaf a delicate note in nature's orchestral embrace. The forests, once brimming with summer's vibrancy, now glow with the burnished hues of gold, amber, and crimson, as if kissed by the setting sun.
The air, crisp and invigorating, carries the sweet scent of pine and earth, mingling with the whisper of wind through the changing foliage of trees and brush alike. Every step upon the soft, mossy ground is a pilgrimage, a journey through nature's temple, where the stillness of the season invites contemplation and wonder.
In the quietude of autumn, the mountains stand sentinel, their peaks dusted with the first snow of winter's approach, while the valleys below are blanketed in the soft, golden light of shortening days. The rivers, once roaring with the snow-melt of spring, now flow gently, mirroring the vibrant tapestry of the canopy above. Here

Ballad of a Broken Heart
Ballad of a Broken Heart
Written By: Izzy S.
I wanna bare my soul
In a way no one can
In the hope that someday you
Might understand how it feels
To be so alone.
I carry on as best I can
Not shining as brightly
As before.
I feel more lost than ever;
It's been so dark
Since she’s been gone.
I’m lost in these memories,
And I’m on my knees, without shame
Begging to believe
But I feel so far from heaven.
My parents yell and scream
They always say
“It gets easier that this
I swear.”
Well, I can’t see it
From here
They eventually gave up on me too.
At this point
I hope they hear these words:
“Don’t cry to me;
If you loved me, you would
Be here with me.
You'd be here for me.
I’ll burn it all to the ground
Before I let you in.
Please forgive me,
I can’t forgive you now.
Do you remember when Mary
Died, and you said you wished it was me?
Well, I am dead:
Dead to you as can be.”
I met a guy
Who eventually hurt me
Nobody knows me
But he took something
I couldn't save.
Maybe a
