The Word Still Speaks

The Word Still Speaks — A Spoken Word Piece
I remember when Grandma whispered verses like lullabies into the cracks of my soul. When the Bible wasn’t just a book— it was breath. Bread. Battle cry. Back then, the Word of God wasn’t silent. It spoke— in the tears wept at altars, in the hush of midnight prayers, in the strength it gave when life screamed unfair. I’ve seen pages turn like seasons— from Genesis to Revelation, from broken to breakthrough, from wandering to home. And still— still it speaks. See, the Word of God is not just ink on scrolls or leather-bound theology. It’s thunder wrapped in mercy. It’s fire in the bones of prophets, and peace in the palms of the weary. It’s the "Let there be light" that shattered darkness then— and still shatters darkness now. It’s the Psalms sung in pain, the Proverbs that shaped my mind, the Gospels that carried me when I couldn’t carry myself. Oh, I've clutched it like a lifeline when the waves came too high. Spoken it through clenched teeth when the storm would not pass. Because when the world is chaos, when my faith is a flicker— the Word stands still. Unmoved. Unshaken. Alive. Sharper than sorrow. Stronger than silence. Sweeter than honey from the rock. It speaks in hospital rooms. In prison cells. In the back pew where you think you’ve gone too far— it whispers, “You are still mine.” It’s not just ancient text. It’s present truth. Living Word. Breathing hope. So to the weary heart, to the one holding on by a verse— don’t let go. Because His Word never returns void. It plants. It pierces. It promises. And it never forgets your name. The Word of God is not just what was said. It’s what is still speaking. And beloved— It’s speaking to you now.

"To Stop Galamsey's Harmful Sway" By Obed Yadzo In lands once green, now ravaged and grey Galamsey's grasp holds us in disarray Waterways choked, forests laid to waste Our future's uncertain, our present in haste The earth cries out, her beauty marred As toxic trails and pits leave scars unscarred Our health at risk, our livelihoods too As galamsey's greed our well-being subdues But still we stand, united and strong To fight this plague, right where we belong We'll raise our voices, loud and clear To stop galamsey, dispel all fear Let's reclaim our land, restore its grace And ensure our children a safer space Free from pollution, free from pain A future bright, where love and hope reign Together we can make a change Break galamsey's hold, rearrange Our lives, our land, our legacy too For a brighter tomorrow, starting anew.
