Rejuvenation

I'm letting it all go.
My broken childhood, abandoned fathers, deceased mother, blinded past....
Those things made me, but they do not dictate who I am.
They are a part of who I was , of a frightened girl
Not the strong woman who stands today
They do not break or make me.
My goal is happiness.
I will do all that it takes to retain that,
As well as continuing to discover who I am
My soul can be at rest now.
My fears soon downcast
My Mind at ease
God has blessed me ,like no one else will ever know.
He has touched my heart , and my life has flourished because of it.
I have been made whole ........new.............born again.

Another Sinner

But I don’t want to be another sinner

Holding a tall glass of champagne,

Wearing a look of fine happiness, when I’m truly feeling shame

I don’t want to hide my behavior behind the foolish acts of others

To blame all my thoughtless mistakes on the heads of my fellow sisters and brothers

I don’t want my body to betray me

At night when the air is thick, moist and sweet

When my body heat rises and I feel sensations down to my feet

Toss my hair to the side of my neck

As I feel a warm hand sliding down….

Who wants to wake up the next morning, too dirty to ever be clean

And then laugh in the face of the devil, claiming: ‘It’s in the Lord that I lean!’

I don’t want my face to hide the effects of my unknown dismay

I want instead to call faithfully on His holy name

Can’t you see that what I’m asking

Is not a wayward thing

You can’t achieve in a second, or find it in a ring

To be a true bearer of his name, an adornment to my king.

I say: ‘Farewell, to lost sleepless nights, when temptations are riding high

‘Good Rid dins to one night stands, to waking up to strangers who left me behind

For the Lord has called for me a much greater plan, and he needs me on demand.

Are you living blindly? Your heart aching for more?

Then ask Jesus for His guidance, and show Satan to the door.
