You will prosper as Your soul prospers


Miranda lay in bed staring out of the window
Sunlight beams poured into the room.
It was a beautiful sight to see of fresh flowers dancing in the wind.
But Miranda stared out blankly totally unmoved by the beauty around her.
Her mum walked into her room and pulled up a chair and gently stroked her hair
“How is it you are spending more and more time in bed it’s the fourth day now you have got up late for school.
What’s wrong she asked?
“Nothing...the young girl replied turning her head to the wall.
“C’mon tell me it’s only then I can help you 
“Dahlia said she never wanted to see me again”.
She looks at me with contempt in school and says all kind of mean things about me to everyone.
She is treating me like an enemy.”
“Why is that mother asked?
You two were inseparable since you were toddlers.
“I felt what she was going to do was going to harm her so I didn’t support her 
So she got angry.”
“Is that why you are so downcast”? Mother asked
In the bible, mother continued, David was hounded by King Saul
He had to be in hiding all the time as Saul was so bent on destroying him.
But David in spite of doing nothing wrong
Never let the circumstances get to him.
He kept his eyes steadfast to the Lord
And commanded his soul to bless the Lord
-psalms -5-9 CJB
4) I am surrounded by lions,
I am lying down among people breathing fire,
men whose teeth are spears and arrows
and their tongues sharp-edged swords.
(5) be exalted, God, above heaven!
May your glory be over all the earth!
(6) they prepared a snare for my feet,
but I am bending over [to avoid it].
They dug a pit ahead of me,
but they fell into it themselves. (Selah)
(7) my heart is steadfast, God, steadfast.
I will sing and make music.
(8) Awake, my glory! Awake, lyre and lute!
I will awaken the dawn.
“Gather your spirits, girl and preserve your soul ,
as the bible says in 3 John 1:2 KJV
"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
