I don’t recognize you
Do you recognize me?
What’s your favorite color?
What do you believe?
Who do you call on when you’re feeling low?
Who do you rely on when you’re out of control?
Who brings you peace when you’re going through?
Who is your beloved no matter what they do?
Why?
The answer says less about them and more about you.
Do you recognize them?
Do they recognize you?
Or are you some stranger that they choose to use?
What about you?
Are you a user too?
If you are, do you recognize you?
Or do you – Lie to you about you too?
“Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most beautiful in the land?” – The Evil Woman of Snow White.
Psalm 311 The sayings of King Lemuel–an oracle [1] his mother taught him:
2 “O my son, O son of my womb, O son of my vows, [2] 3 do not spend your strength on women, your vigor on those who ruin kings. 4 “It is not for kings, O Lemuel– not for kings to drink wine, not for rulers to crave beer,5 lest they drink and forget what the law decrees, and deprive all the oppressed of their rights.
6 Give beer to those who are perishing, wine to those who are in anguish;7 let them drink and forget their poverty and remember their misery no more. 8 “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.9 Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.”
10 [3] A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.15 She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.“30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.31 Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
To answer your question: Yes the Mother is destroying her daughters because she is destroyed herself. She loves being broken because she believes it gives her an excuse for the evil she does to her own children. She is wrong.
A wise woman builds up her household but an evil woman tears down her own family with her own bare hands.
Well, where is the man, the husband, the father – he’s there reveling in her own self destruction – it is the purest of hate. A woman will reap what she sows even if it is at the hands of her husband.
I look at his face and I know; he’s making her pay everyday. Everyday. Every. Single. Day.
As for me: It’s none of my business.
“Vengeance is mine sayeth The Lord. I. Will. Repay.” – This phrase emphasizes the idea that ultimate justice belongs to a higher power and that retribution will be administered accordingly.
19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. – (Romans 12:19)
Isn’t the mark of Yahweh punishing someone for pride is them losing their mind and acting like a beast in the field for years?
Amen. Nebuchadnezzar. There is the lesson in his life n’es pas?
The proud play a game that they will surely lose. Vanity is Satan’s favorite sin.
There’s a thin line between self love and vanity. Vanity is the delusion of perfection. Self love is self knowing – you ARE aware AND accept that you are not perfect but Elohim is and that is just fine with you.

The Quartermaster Harbor 13 by Coletha Albert
The television in the South Park living room flickered with scenes of smoke and shattered glass above the steps of the U.S. Capitol. Outside the window, heat shimmered off the Houston asphalt, but inside, the air was cold with terror. Memories of historical purges, echoed by modern echoes of fear, made the decision unanimous. Thirteen…
