ACHSAH (Part 3- final)

ACHSAH (Part 3- Concluding part)

Kiriath-Sepher! That dreaded city with the surrounding mountains, fortified walls and Anakim! Anakim were giants that were greatly feared by the twelve tribes and Canaanites.  O Papa, why are you doing this to me? I know I should trust you papa. I know you only want the best for me. I know you love me papa... It’s just very difficult to trust you now.

Shortly after Moses died, the twelve tribes led by Uncle Joshua crossed the Jordan into the Promised Land. A lot of battles had been fought since the first battle at Jericho and from the look of things, there would be many more wars to come. Papa had asked Uncle Joshua for the occupied hill country of Hebron for his inheritance. Hebron was also known as Kiriath-arba after Arba, the greatest man among the Anakim.

TRUTH

I am truth
I cannot be stopped
I cannot be killed
Truth is the fire on my tongue,
The burden in my heart

In my search for truth, I found more than I bargained for 
You see, when truth is revealed, lies are exposed
Now all I see around me are lies
But that is okay because truth lives within

Achsah (Part 2)

It had been three days. Three days since the worst day of my life. I could still remember the laughter and mama helping me up from the floor. I was so embarrassed that I had not left the house in three days. I could not bear to run into him. "He probably thinks I'm a clumsy little girl," I thought. Mama told me that I was overreacting, and Cousin Diana, well she had lost her patience.

First date Memories- Love at first sight

First date memories- love at first sight

I believe in love at first sight. True. It has happened to me. I can still remember that evening like it was yesterday. He was waiting for me outside the restaurant, wearing a t-shirt and pair of dark blue jeans. Pink. He was wearing a pink tee. Anyhow, we hugged and I caught a whiff of his cologne. “He smells really nice”, I thought. We were off to a great start.
