      Voices of Reality - David Marshall

      Power Of God

      There is no power greater than the power of God

      I have seen individuals change their immoral acts, because the power of God transformed

      their hearts and minds

      It has made people forgive when they thought it was impossible to do

      It has made Men and Women achieve gargantuan success, when they felt their talents were buried in a dark hopeless universe

      I have seen the power of God bring relationships together when the rain and wind decided not to make an atmospheric contribution

      I have seen the power of God reveal itself in testimonies so profoundly that it caused a frenzy of spiritual transformation

      The power of God has no competition and it never will

      It cannot be created or annihilated

      I have seen people tremble, quiver, shiver in an orgy of jubilation when they experienced the power of God

      When an individual’s life was on the precipice of disaster, I have seen the power of God walk in and change his path to a world of blissful stability

      When an individual was at the nadir stage of life, I have seen the power of God add and multiply strong favor renascent to his spirit that had been lost for a prolonged period

      The power of God has made avaricious Men and Women become powerless in one miniscule of a second

      I have seen the power of God metamorphosed sadness to happiness

      It has changed darkness to light

      It has changed jealously to trust

      It has changed illness to excellent health

      It has metamorphosed separation to reconciliation

      Yes, Oh God Yes I have at concomitant intervals experienced the Power of God working in my life

      There is no power greater than the Power Of God

      David A. Marshall

      A Time And Place

      Traveling back to a time and place where everything was born

      I am unable to fully express the magic that was there

      You are no longer here, but I still get all constipated with happiness when I

      Think of all of the memories

      You were known as the ennuye woman of the world

      When I think of a time and place I think of how you introduce me to love

      When I think of a time and place I think of how you taught others the meaning of true love

      When you think about love and life you should think of a time and place

      When you seriously reminisce about a time and place it should grab and capture your heart

      You cannot put a market value on a time and place

      Sometimes a time and place make me tremble in solitude knowing that I am unable to relive a specific event with you

      When I think about a time and place I think about how much you loved people and human
