To act justly
Like Deborah beneath the palm tree,
Truth was her sword, discernment her shield.
She judged not by power, but by righteousness –
Calling forth courage from the hesitant,
And standing firm when others faltered.
Justice is not loud – it is steady.
It listens before it speaks,
And speaks only when truth must walk.
It does not bend for profit,
Nor bow to applause.
To love mercy
Not merely to receive it,
But to cherish it like breath in the lungs.
When God lifts you higher than your merit,
When the job, the calling, the platform
Outpaces your résumé –
That is mercy.
And to love it is to remember:
You were chosen not to boast,
But to serve with gratitude.
To extend the same grace
To those still waiting for their lifting.
Mercy is not a transaction –
It is a testimony.
To walk humbly with your God
Not behind Him in fear,
Nor ahead in pride,
But beside Him in trust.
Humility is not self-erasure –
It is self-awareness in divine light.
It is knowing that Satan fell
Not because he was weak,
But because he was proud.
And so we walk low,
So we may stand tall in grace.
We seek the kingdom first –
Not the crown.
