. Proverbs 2:1-22 [1]MY SON, if you will receive my words and treasure up my commandments within you, [2]Making your ear attentive to skillful and godly Wisdom and inclining and directing your heart and mind to understanding [applying all your powers to the quest for it]; [3]Yes, if you cry out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, [4]If you seek [Wisdom] as for silver and search for skillful and godly Wisdom as for hidden treasures, [5]Then you will understand the reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of [our omniscient] God. [Prov. 1:7.] [6]For the Lord gives skillful and godly Wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. [7]He hides away sound and godly Wisdom and stores it for the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with Him); He is a shield to those who walk uprightly and in integrity, [8]That He may guard the paths of justice; yes, He preserves the way of His saints. [I Sam. 2:9; Ps. 66:8, 9.] [9]Then you will understand righteousness, justice, and fair dealing [in every area and relation]; yes, you will understand every good path. [10]For skillful and godly Wisdom shall enter into your heart, and knowledge shall be pleasant to you. [11]Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you, [12]To deliver you from the way of evil and the evil men, from men who speak perverse things and are liars, [13]Men who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, [14]Who rejoice to do evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, [15]Who are crooked in their ways, wayward and devious in their paths. [16][Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you] to deliver you from the alien woman, from the outsider with her flattering words, [Prov. 2:11.] [17]Who forsakes the husband and guide of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God. [18]For her house sinks down to death and her paths to the spirits [of the dead]. [19]None who go to her return again, neither do they attain or regain the paths of life. [20]So may you walk in the way of good men, and keep to the paths of the [consistently] righteous (the upright, in right standing with God). [21]For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the men of integrity, blameless and complete [in God’s sight], shall remain in it; [22]But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the treacherous shall be rooted out of it.

Supernatural Woman, Rosina Akinola is the founder of Save Our Families Incorporated non-profit organization for families who have lost loved ones due to violence. We are taking back our joy, by the Blood of Jesus. My oldest son Sidney Maurice Jackson Jr. was robbed and murdered on November 21, 2015. He was 19 years old, 6 months away for getting his Associates Degree in Business Management. He was also a new father, who was gunned down one day before his son Jaiden turned one month old November 22, 2015. Sidney was taken from us two days before my 37th birthday November 23rd. Sidney made one bad choice, which, cost him his life. I didnโt find out until he was dead and gone. And by that time it was too late and I didnโt want to hear it. Knoxville, Tennessee is a small city that is dying slowly. This city has lost so many young men and women due to senseless violence. There are so many families hurting as a whole. No one ever realizes that the mothers arenโt the only ones hurting. The Fathers, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends hurt as well. But, everyone grieves differently, because of their own personal relationship with the deceased loved one. But, most of all our youth hurt the most. They do not know how to handle grief at all. Weโve got to be more careful, when it comes to them. They will become severely depressed right in front of your eyes without you knowing it. How can I say this? Well, itโs because it happened to me. I was so wrapped up in the loss of Sidney, two months to the date January 21, 2016 I almost lost my only daughter to suicide. I had to learn the hard way. Iโm trying to prevent other families, from experiencing the same things my family has experienced. I want to be the voice for the mothers who are hurting too badly to SPEAK UP and SPEAK OUT. Iโm trying to help families stay together and support each other. So, many families fall apart after the loss of a family member, especially a child. The Lord is my strengthโฆ View more posts
