Redemption


Finding forgiveness in the past mistakes

Finding peace in the midst of conflicts

Finding love in the search for truth

Finding faith in the grasp of understanding

Finding hope in the things of despair

It Is By Our Faith and Belief



I have been social networking on LinkedIn with this member for awhile and noticed the likeness of his thoughts to mine. He is from Kenya, Africa (Islam) and I am an American citizen (Christian) living in Minnesota, USA. As an expressive writer/author I get into the depth of people’s minds, and try to get deeper into how far they have reached. I am blessed to have their voice.

THE INTERVIEW


I am a Christian…are you Islam?

“I am Muslim but a unique one.”

You tend to enjoy the Christians? Am I right? I see this in you.
Anyway…we all share the same God…who is loving and brings peace. It is our faith and belief…that we know God.

“I don’t enjoy them I create awareness to the lost in the Dark Muslims to realize, appreciate, value, and honor the Christian Brethren for through the role of Lady Mary was the actual existence and continuity of Islam prevailed.”

And religion has nothing to do with that. Right…there are even dark Christians! Lol.

“Actually that’s the salient point I am trying to make…what is definition of religion anyways”

Yes; Mary was a chosen Mother.

“It’s simple…religion is lifestyle. One is either conscience of God in ones’ life or one is a companion of the devil. To me only 2 religions exist in this world…the party of God and the party of Satan.”

I’ve talked with a few Indians (India) and they have spiritual beliefs as I do of God. Some are like-minded to me as well.

“Cool”

It was then at this time that I had showed a page from my book, To Hear Your Voice.  Written on page 58 was a verse titled Two Forces. The first line of the verse is this: God or Satan? And there was 14 more lines written.


“I told you…in today’s world…either one is a Zionist easier said or not. Which is what I am unmasking…right from my own blood relatives.”

I was thinking you were/had knowledge like me spiritually. Interesting.

“Wonderful…that’s exactly the conclusion I made from above. Indeed a coincidence.”

I’ll see you in Heaven one day! Chances are not on earth…unless I see your picture.

“I hope so Carol…it’s a constant struggle to win over the devil.”

My book is my own authenticity…my words only.

“That’s awesome. Carol, you asked me a tricky question.”

Now you know why you are a unique one.

“Need to step out now, time as prayer time is approaching.”

Authors/writers do ask questions. Ttyl…have a good evening.

“Thanks, you too.”


IN CONCLUSION


James 2:19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe-and shudder.

John 20:29  Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.

John 11:40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?”

Ephesians 6:16 In addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

I Am The Universe


I shall love myself
For I am the universe
Deeper than most imagine
Filled with worlds
Encompassing love
Under skies of serenity
Where magic and mystery
Co-exist with reason
Few dare explore
Even fewer delve
Beyond their own dreams
To see my reality
For I am the universe
I shall love myself

(Social Networker sent this to me.)

This particular verse had been shared to me by an author whom I have had the privilege to receive messages as we have been social networking. When he sent this to me, I had to tell him my thoughts:

It describes that you understand yourself. You’ve seen a higher depth…like spirituality and wisdom.

“Yes, you understand it, and also me!”

This is how I read it. We are like-minded. This is why you relate to me. Our best friends…are those who understand us.

“And you to me.”

Yes.

“Thanks, my friend, for being out there somewhere. I am blessed to have made your acquaintance!  I look forward to your poetry in my world!”

Thanks.

Wisdom Comes Through


Your relationship with God will
Only make you stronger.

Watch for His signs and gifts-

Takes away things as worry,
Doubt, anxiety, depression

Lightens your burdens, roadblocks,
Waywardness, tragedy, sickness

Gifts you with knowledge, wisdom,
Understanding, perseverance

Comforts you in faith, hope, love,
Peace, joy, life

The Life We Do Live



This is an interview that took place on LinkedIn posting and commenting. This interview came to me when I was replying to what was being said.

Social Networker in quotes                          Carol Kappes unquote

THE INTERVIEW


“Live the life you have imagined.” (HENRY DAVID THOREAU)

I do in my mind; but this earthly life…doesn’t always abide.

“I know the feeling all too well, Carol. There are times the pebble in our shoes create a challenge in our journey. And we become a different person from the friction and resistance we have along the way.”

Beautiful way you just said this! How true. It is according to God’s plans…not always our plans.


When I finished this conversation; I thought of the Bible verse of Isaiah 55:8-9
NKJV

{“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways.” Declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”}

Since I have been writing; God’s VOICE is much better than my VOICE. I see this so many times with some of the verses that I have written when they came into my mind.

Through My Eyes


If I could give you one thing in life,
I’d give you the ability to see yourself
Through my eyes; only then would you
Realize how special you are to me.

If you were a movie, I’d watch you
Over and over again.

Highest Form of Love


This interview came about by texting from a social networking connection in the Eastern world. It gave me the true essence of living a life well balanced, when moments of love is crucial for a married couple’s life and family. Limited editing.

Social Networker voice in quotes                            Carol Kappes voice unquotes

“Really my love I need you because I love you so much.”
I am always on social networking.
“Okay my love you filled me in my love.”
I know that I did…it was VOID or empty
“Yes, my heart, it’s broke.”
Not any longer, is it?
“Yes, it’s longer but you know when me get another woman to he forgot that.”
Is that how men’s minds work? Thanks for sharing.
“The minds and hearts of men are in the hands of women.”
True, you said this so well! So…why didn’t my ex-husband listen to my ideas?
“When the couple does not have love and mutual respect between them, this makes life impossible, so it is important to respect each one of them.”
Thanks for your voice. It was important to hear.
“That you don’t need give your heart to any person.”
You give your heart to the right one.
“You give me your heart, I give my heart.”
That’s called…love in unity.
“Yes, that’s called love in God.”
Agape love…unconditional love
“Yes, love in God without condition and not only interested in sex. This is the most beautiful types of love.”

In ending this, I wanted to give a few samples from the Bible that demonstrates further of the highest form of love.
1 John 4:8 Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
1 Corinthians 13:7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Galations 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness.

Networking


Your tie; certainly caught my eye.
As I walked in the room and seen you.

Your looks, stature, and features just
Made me want to walk towards you.

Your presence was soon overshadowed
As I headed into your direction.

Your demeanor made my heart rise
As I introduced myself to you.

Your response upon my questions took
A whole new meaning of networking.

A New Year: 2019


Celebrations, parties, and fireworks
Lit up at the strike of midnight.
A new year is now dawning-
Awakening at the early light.

Cheers, champagne, and joy
Came bursting forth in the morn.
The past year went into history
And the new year is now steadfast.

Fascinating, majestic, and thrilling
Is the feeling of elation around us,
As the confetti drops down and
The horns ring in another year.
