  • He Came to Himself — And So Must We

    A scroll for the parents holding the line when love means letting go

    There’s a part of the prodigal son story that we rarely talk about.

    Not the pigpen.
    Not the welcome home.
    But that moment before he leaves—
    The moment he looks his father in the eye and says:

    “Father, give me the share of the property that is coming to me.”
    — Luke 15:12 (ESV)

    It doesn’t say there was an argument. But if you’re a parent, you already know—
    there was tension.
    There was pain.
    There was a heart already gone long before the feet walked away.

    Sometimes they don’t just ask for distance.
    They demand your blessing over rebellion.
    They want you to affirm a life that contradicts everything God said is holy—and still call it love.

    And when you don’t…
    You’re the one called biased. Hypocrite. Outdated. Unsafe. Unloving.

  • If You Only Knew…

    (Arete Gune scroll — heart message and warning)

    Some will ignore this message because they’ve “heard it all before” —
    the end-times talk, the warnings — and their hearts have grown hard.

    Some people’s eyes are closed because of the comforts of the world,
    or the heavy struggles of life — fighting to survive, to provide, to endure.

    But the warning must still be spoken.
    Because if you only knew what is truly waiting for those who overcome —
    (not just escape, but true identity [DNA: spiritually and here on earth], inheritance [New Earth and New Heaven], reigning with Christ — something beyond imagination) —
    you would never let it slip away.

  • Is Your Wick Alive? A Scroll for the Midnight Cry

    There was a vision long ago — a golden lampstand, standing between two olive trees, filled with golden oil that flowed straight from the Source.
    No human hand crushed the olives.
    No earthly power kept the flame alive.

    “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,” says the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6)

    The oil was the Holy Spirit.
    The lampstand was God’s people.
    And hidden inside each lamp was a wick — a detail easy to miss, but critical to life.

    The wick is your spirit.

  • Some Wounds Start in the Heart: Why Guarding Your Flow Changes Everything

    Your mind, soul, and body are connected — and the heart is the gateway to life.

    Some wounds you feel in your body didn’t start in your body.
    They started in your heart.
    The mind broke.
    The spirit was wounded.
    And slowly, the body began to echo the damage.

    That’s why Scripture tells us:

    “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
    (Proverbs 4:23)
