BITTERNESS AND ITS CURE

InSpired
LOVE SO STRONG, 
BITTERNESS SO SUBTIL

Life.is filled with awesome joyful moments that lubricate the human Soul and opens its petals of flowing love 

 The human Soul is ordained to be a channel of expressions for the Human spirit. The bountiful rich emotions in its bank is capable of  either building up a tower of etereal happiness or  gush out a  flood of bitterness that can eat up the entire essence of a man/woman.

Lovr is  medicine for the soul but bitterness is a cancerous growth that  contaminates its walls and spread  sickness to all its flesh.

Michal loved David so much, her love for him was deeper than family ties and love for the throne of King Saul,  her father.

She despised her father's command to protect her lover from the sword of peril.
Though she knew that her lover would be lost to her for a while but she desired and hope some day her love will fly back to her with the crown on his head and their love secured forever.

Then her wish was fulfilled and her prayers granted but with a root of bitterness planted in her torn soul.

She was torned between an affection for a new husband called Paltiel who  adored her and loved her as a daughter when her first love, David wandered in desert of battles and exploit . 

Truly, she once dreamed of this magical reunion with David, her love but now that love has been dimmed by the ardent and committed affection of another Lover who wept when Michal was taken from him.

She answered David call to the palace  but with bitterness disguised under the cover of acceptance.

For now, she had to share her lover's attention with other wives and maidens in the Kingdom.

A woman that loved so much lashes out at against her husband in public.
She ridiculed him before his officials  and subjects because jealousy has breeded sorrow and bitterness in a heart fashioned for love.

Bitterness has replaced the sacrificial love this woman had which made her protect her beloved husband from forces that  wanted to extinguish his light before it shines so brightly as ordained by Yahweh.

A love so deep, but now a bitterness which brings life long barrenness.
