Here is a short poem! Take it to bed with you TODAY. Love Helen ♥️
Many Christians today, are worrying about their 2026 finances. The cost of living is so high! But what if you knew that God had already paid off all your debts for life?
Rest in peace. God will take care of IT.
Think of the Bible Now think of GOLD Bind them together With heaven’s mould
The fusing of two Creates riches in Christ The GOLD and God’s Word Is heaven’s delight
This GOLD is of heaven It’s not found on earth It is rather for believers Who experienced new birth
The GOLD you carry Is unseen to man This GOLD is not currency That is visible on land!
Rather this GOLD is found in God’s heart Nobody can steal it As it is supernaturally marked!
It has “your” seal With your name engraved It carries your gifts As a believer that’s saved!
This gift is yours It has everything you need It is God’s GOLD to you That sets you free!
It doesn’t carry a burden like the gold found on earth This GOLD is divine And supernaturally birthed!
The gold on earth Creates bondage in man As it is always attached To physical plans!
God’s GOLD has no weight It is spiritually seen It comes from your CREATOR Who provides the unseen
Drop the heavy weights Your mortgages unpaid Your DEBT belongs to God Heaven’s GOLD is the way!
Money is bondage God’s GOLD is free Store treasures in heaven That set you free!
God fully pays off debts They all belong to Him The banks charge interest But “interest” belongs to Him!
God sets the conditions Not your contract signed on earth! GOD can do anything…. With everything! As He owns the whole earth!
Stop stressing about CONTRACTS That you can’t reverse God is “The Banker” Not the CEO on earth!
Store your treasures in heaven Where they cannot decay Your spiritual home is eternal It’s a house that’s all paid!
Think of one ministry That is a call in your heart This gift is from heaven, God’s GOLD from the start!
As you serve God Loving others like Christ These divine deposits will grow Your gifts will shine as a light!
These jewels cannot be stolen As they were deposited in Jesus’s name These actions will be recorded As they glorified God’s name!
Rather we think of keeping our family safe and our life safe.
We never imagine a day needing protection.
Why even have this thought?
I thought of “protecting my day” recently when I realised how many times, my day was ruined because of different things that happened.
I felt a sense of indignation and I realised I was in charge of changing the course of my day for better, even when certain parts of the day were ruined!
What if I watched more carefully for someone or something coming along to hurt my day and what if I consciously made better choices so I was less affected by life’s negative events?
What if I protected all the hours in my day, really carefully?
Even if the last two hours of your day have been dreadful, you still have the rest of the day, to improve things now. I am sure this is God’s will.

I can never imagine Him saying, “Make your day as worse as possible!”
Rather I can imagine Him saying, “Redeem the time, for the days are evil.”
No one has heard of putting a Band-Aid on “an hour”, meaning you are “covering” a slot of time with some sort of protection.
But what if you did, figuratively speaking?
Right now?
Don’t you sometimes hear yourself saying, “My day was ruined because….”
What if you did not say that?
But rather you said, “Some of the day was ruined but I still have a few hours left to improve things.”
If I decide to sit back and do nothing, I will let someone or something kill my day.
You cannot control everything that happens, but at least you can control your responses.
God wants you to control all your responses.
After all, who will, if you don’t?
We have a lot more control over rough days than we think we do.
Your day is your subordinate. You are the boss of it.
Choose the most beautiful paths in the worst possible circumstances.
If this path is only in your head, so be it.
God will be on this path in your head.
Talk to Him on this path. He is always there.
God said, “Then call on me when you are in trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.” (Psalm 50:15)
Aim for better days every day.
Imagine a shield around “your day”.
Protect this God-given time as something very precious.
Harm will come to your day at times.
As if someone came along and stabbed your day!
But what if you realised that the day was not fully hurt?
Make the remaining hours, beautiful because God is with you right now.
I personally have written off so many days in the past because certain things weren’t going well.
Here I was acting as if someone killed my day 100% and was slowly killing me.
I was approving this day-killing even though the day was still alive and not finished yet.
Please don’t say, “Tomorrow will be better.”
Rather say, “I am going to make things better, right now!”
Why not say, “A lot of my day was ruined and the day truly hurt. But for the remaining hours, I am going to cherish them. What has not been hurt is still well. There are still a few hours left that need my love and protection. Good atomic habits for God, no matter how small, will help me improve my day.”
Many people are open minded to everyone except Who?
God.
When God is taken out of the equation, a soul submits to a false absolute of truth.
Imagine living your whole life trusting your own heart only.
I don’t trust my own heart.
Do you?
During a very difficult time in my Christian life, I switched off my own heart.
Why?
Only because I knew that if I relied on my own heart, I could have been terribly led astray.
What was the outcome of my heart being turned off?
The end results were mind blowing and staggering.
In this new place, I learnt about God’s ways even more.
My Christian faith grew.
I loved others more.
I started to heal from past traumas like never before.
All because I switched off my own heart!
How did this even happen?
1 John 3:20!
“………God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.”
If I had used my heart as the final authority, this false absolute would have blinded me!
I am very thankful that God taught me that His heart was the only One that could be trusted perfectly.
God starts outside your own heart.
Not inside your heart.
This place = no mistakes.
This place where God is, is where you are not.
Quoted from Nancy Leigh DeMoss, from Brokeness:The Heart God Revives –
“The fact is, when it comes to spiritual matters, we all have a family history of heart disease. We must be willing to let Him examine our hearts and diagnose that which we may be unable to see for ourselves.”
“The Good News of the Gospel is that the Great Physician has made available a cure for our deceived, diseased hearts. Jesus came to do radical heart surgery- to cleanse and transform us from the inside out, by the power of His death and resurrection.”
Only God has a perfect undiseased heart.
Only this kind of heart, can be trusted fully.
My Christian conversion was impossible.
But then it wasn’t.
It didn’t just happen inside my heart.
It happened inside God’s.
Then when I submitted to His heart 1st, I let Him guide my heart.
Enjoy my new poem below! All my poems are written by me, never AI’s script!
God and you are two
Are you ever just one?
In other words,
Are you ever alone
Without anyone?
Never are you just one
Your soul is a two
Your a living breathing human…
God is helping you!
We behave as individuals
We self-manage self
We think in solitude
But we still need God’s help
Your soul’s relationship
Is private
It’s a relationship with self
But more significant than this,
Your soul needs God’s help
Your soul was made with His breath
You can’t erase Him at all
Some humans try
To create their own soul
That doesn’t know God at all!
But guess what, dear human?
Your soul’s design cannot be changed!
You cannot create a Godless soul
That doesn’t know God’s name!
Designing a soul is God’s business
You can’t change yours a little bit!
Like an undo button
That erases God…
To change your belief real quick!
Your soul was made by God
He designed Adam from the dust!
You can’t go and trim your soul’s design
Like a loaf without its crusts!
Some people are seeking….
They are searching new designs
They want to create a carnal soul
That pushes God out their mind!
As they search for places feverishly
They seek to start from scratch!
A soul with their own breath…..
Where God’s presence, can’t come back!
Ripping up the Bible doesn’t eliminate God
So, off they go
To look for breath…
Air that creates new life!
Once this breath is found…
They can create another life!
But all the while their searching…
God’s breath is always there
His breath is inside them
He is watching them meddle there
They want their souls to be like clothes…
As the soul can come on and off
They can then change their soul to suit them
But is it worth the cost?
As God is erased…
Sin is glorified
Then men live with delusional souls
They believe that they are gods
Who can create their own souls!
Breath of God begone!
We don’t need you today!
We live to pervert your Word
We follow Satan’s way!
The ten commandments are false
We create another word
Our word is our own will and way
God’s Word is absurd!
We shall kill
We shall lie
We shall hate too!
We shall bow to useless idols
That’s what carnal men do!
Adam & Steve are getting married!
Adam & Eve are wrong!
God is a dictator and fiction
The Christians have it all wrong!
But no matter how hard they tried…
They could never erase God’s call!
God created their unique soul
His voice was in them all!
One day a man sinned!
It was terrible indeed!
He believed His soul was his!
He could live as he so pleased!
He thought his soul would disappear
Once he left this earth
He thought his deeds would die with him
He thought his soul was dirt!
But as he died one day…
He went to the other side
He discovered that his soul lived on
He saw the deceit and lies!
His past was not erased
His deeds came with him too
They were fused to an eternal soul
His soul knew Jesus too!
Why didn’t I follow Jesus?
The departed soul said!
I thought my soul was only mine
I thought my soul was dead!
But here I am still living!
Even though I have left the earth
Oh no! I am mistaken…
My soul is truly cursed!
I thought I was the creator
I thought that I was God
I thought I could design a human soul
That fully eliminated God!
Now I see the truth…
God truly made my soul!
God placed in me His conscience
He made eternal souls!
Now I see the deception….
Of souls still living on earth
They think that humans can create souls
As they are only made of dirt!
Dirt doesn’t last they reasoned!
Dust to dust will be
When we are dead we cease to exist!
That’s how it will always be!
Now I see the dust was God’s!
He made Adam from this dirt
This dust was God’s creation
And not of human turf!
God breathed in Adam
He became a living soul
With this breath we all exist
We are God’s created souls!
The dead man realised…
That humans
Could never make souls from scratch!
He understood why
The God given conscience,
Was calling lost men back!
God created the conscience, so souls could understand
That choosing sin was not His choice
This wasn’t part of His Great Plan
The conscience was a warning,
The conscience was made above
By a God who knew evil existed
It warned of sin and cold love!
The dead man realised…
That the human conscience was seared
Men wanted to kill God…
They had no desire to heal!
Even though God sent his Son…
Who truly died on a cross
Men still refused Him
They told God, “Get lost!”
Their hearts became hard
Even in pain!
They refused to repent
They ignored God’s name!
~A soft heart finds God~
Suddenly the dead man awoke
He had not died at all
He had seen hell in his dream
But this warning was God’s call!
He knew God was calling him back
To live with a purified heart
God then reached into his soul
And then softened his heart!
And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart. (Ezekiel 36:26)
His new heart had God inside
His heart held Jesus’s blood
This blood combined with his
This blood was astounding love!
It’s not worth waiting to die
And then seeing God was right!
Your soul was not man-made
And neither was the night!
No human can create their own soul
That just fades as the mist
We are all made with God’s breath
Your soul eternally exists!
The night didn’t choose itself
And say, “I want to be light!”
You didn’t create your own soul
Without a God in sight!
I am so glad that I am created!
I am not a man-made soul!
My soul was made with God’s breath
He’s the DESIGNER of us all!
♡♡♡
Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person.
The coolest thing we found was a guy’s wedding ring! We still have it. We have no idea where it came from. There are names/engravings on the ring. I am still hugely puzzled how it came to us. I still have not solved the mystery. We didn’t find it on the ground, it was in my husband’s toolbox/belongings at home! ❤️
Daily writing prompt
What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever found (and kept)?
If you are a new subscriber to helenolenjin.life, this poem video I created earlier, is for you today. I wrote this poem, truly truly! Definitely not AI! No cheating here! But the design from Canva includes AI pictures. 😊
AI will never be able to ursurp authority over the Holy Spirit. As Christian writers, we need to trust God to give us “His words”.
No earthly programs can proof read/edit God’s words! Whew! What a relief that God’s Word stands firm! This fact is encouraging for the Christian writer who is called by God to encourage others.
Another new poem is “almost ready” to be published here at helenolenjin.life. Yea!!!! As a Christian poet, I rejoice that God has given me an amazing new gift! ✨️
I would love to make more scary decisions! Sometimes there is risk involved!
But….
Do not confuse decisions with souls!
You are not your decision. Your soul is fixed!
Your decision isn’t.
Even if you made a decision that wasn’t the best, your soul is still intact.
Sometimes wrong decisions are made!
But your saved soul in Christ, is never wrong. This is where real freedom lies.
Decisions can become like idols.
Meaning, we can look to them for help and support and focus entirely on the decision and its outcome.
What happens when you make a decision that is a mistake?
God is still left, right?
God Himself is always greater than your decision!
The decision is always the lesser.
God is greater!
This thought gives me great comfort.
Why?
Only because I need to make significant decisions this year. I know some will be probably wrong!
But God never is.
I need to learn to place my faith in God Himself, not my decisions.
When our faith IN GOD is greater than all our DECISIONS, even if some decisions are wrong, we still learn to put the onus on Him to direct us elsewhere if we are moving in the wrong direction.
Don’t place priority in your perfectly made decisions.
They are not God and important as decisions are, they need a full time leader. God!
If you place full faith in all your decisions and forget all about God, your decisions are running 🏃♀️ on empty.
God is not the back up plan after a failed decision.
He is always The Plan.
Make decisions.
But always with God.
If you can’t make a decision because it feels too risky, it doesn’t matter! God is never risky and He will decide for you at just the right time.
Choose Him 1st and the decision takes care of itself later….. what comes “after God” then doesn’t really matter! Because you chose God to begin with! If you think about it, nothing comes AFTER God. God is already the absolute!
Humans are always looking for a way out. A way of escape. A way to leave the heaviness of life.
The “body” truly feels heavy.
Not only do we carry ourselves around every day, we also carry our minds too.
This invisible noggin, is usually the heaviest place. If we were to weigh IT, I am sure it would weigh more than our physical body.
How then does a Christian feel weightless and truly free?
Even when life itself feels very heavy?
I think a good idea is to think about the perpetual freedom of your saved soul!
Not the heavy feeling of human-self.
A child of God has a soul ✨️ that is washed in the blood of the lamb.
This blood has set your soul free.
Your soul has been eternally redeemed!
If you feel weighed down physically today, at least the most important part, your eternal soul, isfree in Christ.
I think we prison our redeemed souls without being aware of it!
Huh?
How can the cross of Christ be in chains, behind bars?
Jesus’s death came to set us eternally free.
Recently I had a huge “never before” awareness. I realised how shackled my soul felt. This spiritual ball and chain lie was from Satan. This weighted LIE was the hindrance! But it was a sneaky weight. It had been hidden for so long that I didn’t recognise whereitwas! It had been hiding in my soul! Sneaky right?
Often we try to remove “weights/burdens” via weight loss, workouts, mental health therapies but all the while, the weight never leaves us. Why? Only because we missed the most important place of all. Weight in thesoul will never disappear by human means. Only Jesus can remove these. His death on the cross for our sins, removes these burdens forever!
I thought, “This weight should not be there. I am a saved child of God. Why am I even putting the cross of Christ behind bars?”
Jesus came to set our souls free! Not to imprison them again!
Now I understand….
My authority in Christ is in my redeemed soul!
There is no weight here!
Satan works hard to put the cross of Christ and your soul behind bars! Our pure white soul and our wedding garment, is the area he attacks! He adds invisible weights that we don’t even recognise are there! He aims to defile the cross of Christ so that our redeemed souls surrender to chains ⛓️ again!
When I change my perspective to God’s truth, my human body still feels heavy but now it’s different!
I 🥰 recognise my saved soul in Christ no longer carries Satan’s chain.
So there is no longer a heavy body and a heavy soul.
Only a heavy body and a light soul.
Your heavy body is the subordinate! Its lost already!
Your redeemed soul is the LEADER.
My fleshy burdens must submit and bow to my redeemed-soul! In this place, the power of Christ works fully.
If you feel heavy today as a Christian, don’t believe the lie that you must enter a new spiritual prison! This prison does not exist for a believer in Christ. You left that prison for good when Christ saved you!
You may be suffering today in some way but you are still free-in-Christ no matter what and even if!
You are saved in Christ and eternally free.
“At the cross at the cross where I first saw the light, and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith, I received my sight and now I am happy all the day!”
The more you talk, the more likely you are to sin. If you are wise, you will keep quiet. Proverbs 10:19
“Your silence is not a void to be filled. Let silence be your signature.” (Author unknown)
We sometimes think that the power of persuasion is in the tongue. But it is in God’s Word, not ours. Trust God to bring the prodigals home. Trust God to help you say less in every day life. Often we try to speak more. But then we fall flat on our faces. Now I see that less is more! The power of God, doesn’t need my words! Enjoy my new poem.
Love Helen Olenjin ❤️
I see the weakness of my tongue
I see the power of the Son
He often said little….
Why can’t we be like that?
“Have faith in God”
It’s as simple as that!
Think about that person you want to change
Then trust God in silence
God knows their name!
Silence is not always golden
Sometimes you must speak
Sometimes your words
Are God’s messages
That encourage the sad & weak
God will judge our silence
He will judge our words too
Sometimes words cause pain
But silence can too
We often think words win!
We talk on and on
We try to teach others
We come on too strong!
All the while God is watching
He doesn’t say one word
He hears us speak aloud
He quietly observes….
We think we have the power
With this one little tongue!
But ask yourself this question
“Is my tongue greater than the Son?”
Stop trying to change another…
By using the power of words
Your tongue can easily sin then
You feel exhausted, & not heard
Give your tongue to God!
Resting from words willheal…
Your little waffler takes a rest
With heaven’s holy seal!
God’s seal is peace & rest
His hand has closed a door
Your tongue sits behind it
Your tongue speaks no more!
You suddenly feel God’s peace
That comes with a resting tongue
You allow God to speak…
You don’t hurt anyone
You relax in the stillness
Then God unseals your door
Your tongue is free to speak now!
But it’s different than before
Your tongue sins less
Your tongue is wise
It’s not a chattering bird
God heals without your human tongue
God doesn’t need morewords!
~Poem written by Helen Olenjin~
♡♡♡
Sometimes we need words. Sometimes we don’t. Sometimes God wants to hear our words – when we pray, when we sing, when we repent, when we encourage, when we share God’s Word….Whatever the case, God’s words and God’s silence, are perfect for the time.
♡♡♡
My prayer today is, “Dear God, help me to speak and help me to remain silent at just the right times.”
