image_46.jpgAcknowledgements
I want to first recognized my true love, my first love, the one that loves me in spite of me, the one that saw purpose in me when all I saw was lost hope; my Lord, my Savior, Jesus. I thank God for birthing the gift of poetry from my womb. All the glory belongs to the Lord, I present myself to him as a yielded vessel and a servant to share this gift that he has blessed me with.
I thank God for my daughter Nyla who always has a word of encouragement when hearing my poetry.
In loving memory of my father Andre Jones, who always saw the best in me and always believed in my God given gift of poetry. Being a poet himself we shared many days and nights of writing and reciting poetry together; he is dearly loved and missed.
To my beloved brother Marcus, for his inspiration and encouragement. I thank God for you and your willingness to always be there for your little sister. My brother has a special place in my heart and I love him dearly.
God bless my mother for her many prayers; I love you mom.
It is truly a blessing to have sisters in Christ like Carolyn who has interceded in prayer on my behalf, who has been a sister that speaks the truth, a sister that has seen the vision in times of blurriness, a sister who listens and cares. Carolyn has been there to read, edit and critique my poetry for years with no complaints and I thank God for her.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them
Matthew 18:20 KJV Thank God for my dear friend Angela. Together we have fasted, prayed and laid at the feet of Jesus. My friend Angela has labored with me in prayer and I thank God for allowing us to be burden bearers one to another; I love you Angela.
Thank God for my family, friends and all my brothers and sisters in Christ that God have allowed me to cross paths with. To the saints at True Love Divine, Lively Hope, Bread of Life, and Holy Temple; thank you for the multitude of prayers, support and love from you all.

To Pastor Aaron Calhoun for establishing the foundation of my walk with Jesus while teaching me spiritual warfare and true holiness. Thank you for planting the seed of salvation.
To Elder Hildred Dillard and Evangelist Beverly Dillard for imparting in me spiritual character and the gift of love. Thank you for believing in God’s gift of poetry and for allowing space for me to speak and share this gift with the church.
To Pastor David Battle for your love, prayers and wisdom during my time of fellowship at Bread of Life.
To my pastor, Larry Holt for spiritual covering and loving counsel.
Psalm 57:1 (KJV) Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge until these calamities be overpast.

In the shadow of his wings
It seems I can face adversity
With means of being victorious
Like a pillar of cloud his presence is glorious
Makes us
Robust children of the King
Finding ways for his light to be seen
Ways new life gleams in the eyes of the unseen
Preaching words
