To Declare The Truth

      “Truth is powerful and it prevails.”

The Lord gave me ‘Sojourner,’ because I was to travel up an’ down the land, showin’ the people their sins an’ bein’ a sign unto them. Afterwards, I told the Lord I wanted another name ’cause everybody else had two names, and the Lord gave me ‘Truth,’ because I was to declare the truth to people.           Sojourner Truth 1793-1883

 


The Wind

 

 

“When men sow the wind it is rational to expect that they will reap the whirlwind.”

 

The life of a nation is secure only while the nation is honest, truthful, and virtuous.”

 

 

Frederick Douglass 1818-1895

 


Hold Steady

“I said to the Lord, I’m going to hold steady on to you, and I know you will see me through.”

“…and I prayed to God to make me strong and able to fight, and that’s what I’ve always prayed for ever since.”

 

         Harriet Tubman 1822-1913
