I was given a poor hand
And forced to struggle
Like living in a jungle
Several fights I must juggle.
By Gods own words
We are deemed living testimonial soldiers
Even though the burdens placed on our plates
Can offer grief
But take note that he will come like a thief.
In the darkness of the night
But don’t feel fright
Cause we dwell in the light
And only those who are in darkness
Will feel the sadness & harshness & Godly hardships
Given as the 7 last plagues
Written in His word
So the TRUTH is not vague or absurd.
Please God grant me tranquility
Help me to use my sensibility
Show off my instrumental type usability
Emotional flexibility
Help me remain a loving servant
That’s diligent & fervent
Who is always willing to be serving.
No matter how much from the path I may be swerving.
I admit that I’m always learning
Although at times burning
The truth of God I am always yearning
He has helped me to become much more discerning.
Playing this game called life
Dealing with the madness in this world of sadness
Not much to claim and proclaim under my name
I see and feel the shame
Of being a human that’s mundane.
But I still seek for HIS glory
And that’s how I hope to end my story
My dream is to be free in HIS kingdom
That soon will arrive.
So I ask God to help me continue to survive
In a world that SIN does thrive
I believe I won’t be deceived
And based on the disgrace of our race
I believe that His presence is sooner than later
In the meantime, I hope to get better control over my behavior.
So when he arrives in the day & time that I am alive
I hope he finds me struggling to be a better servant and friend
I know that many helping hands He has spent and did lend.
Possibly even time & space did get bent
The day that I went
Hitherto, came from and full of disdain
I somehow still grew and gained
Out of the pain I continuously grew
Cause He knew
That was how Eric could had flew
Flown, cause to Him it was already known.
And small glimpses of my future was shown
And the angst that was filled to the brim had blown.
When I write these poems and or letters
It’s to help uplift me and make me better
Sometimes just for the moment
I sit back and take notice
I realize that God still holds this
He displays his power in my every situation...
And just for a second, I feel bliss!
