Word Play

In the mood to write...so here's a little word-play

Reckless abandonment
That’s how the world left me
My flesh says I can handle it
Until Christ came to intercept me
Now a day I find myself on my knees
They say you can’t stumble there
My spirit etches out of my ink pen
Slapping pages of my journal without a care
Intensely I’m desiring
The love I’ve so freely acquired when
My tongue said Jesus is Lord
My heart said sin no more
His Spirit said I’m the cure
The Father said alas an opened door
I love it as it pours
Into my cup, the glory
Overflows onto my lap, His stories
Are my love letters and I read them intently
Can’t miss any detail of the letters that he’s sent me
Once was empty
But now I overflow with a good theme
Used to walk hand and hand with a prince
Who plotted out wicked plots and schemes
Had me befriended until I realized how this story ended
Bamboozled with a lie
Only to keep me separated from my prize in the sky
Eternally separated
But that’s not how this child’s life was fated
Created…to worship
So he faded out the blackness
Better yet erased it to avoid monotonous
Patterns that dwell in the very essence of my indwelling
I’m telling
Of the truth that sets free and begins expelling
All things in rebellion, rebelling in
Or with idols that are defiant to the Bible
Which is vital to my Spirit till my flesh is suicidal
I…
Get my trample on with cobras, lions and serpents underneath my vans
Till their convinced I’m walking in His perfect plan
His perfect love casts out fear to the depths of the deepest sea
I’m in Him, He is in me…guess you can call our union a simile
