Desperation:Inspiration
Another day begins with a glimpse of the sun
As it slowly breaks up the shadows outside.
The sound of movement roll the through the air
But are softened by the walls that create the inside
Starting my day clean and refreshed as I open
My heart before god on my knees
Speaking with e father and reading his word
Praying my thoughts words and acting to be as he would please
Thankful for a new day to take up my cross and share the message with whomever I meet
It’s awesome how my path will always intersect with
People in the day room the park bus stop and the street
All intending to take this day in their life
And make it through comfortably
And like free from strife
Temptation abounds leading to fleshly behavior
Which can be avoided if you know Christ as your savior
Alongside the building people are stirring
Beginning their day and trying to think
Clearing yesterdays cobwebs without plans for today
Lacking faith hope and love could lead them to drink
The hustle and bustle of today’s busy world
Can distract when gathering keys or a purse
Finding someone’s keys could sure be a help
But the vehicle is right there.. you could make this worse
The markets are busy with days sales
And the clerk in her haste give the wrong change to you
Maybe nobody noticed at least not in the store
Yet it was seen from above what do you do?
Moments in life bring about choice each day
Free choice allows us to choose from the start
Which direction to follow we choose the way
The decisions can be simple with Christ in our heart
Obey the commandments and do what is right
Be true to the Holy Spirit and stay in the light
I am so thankful to god for all he has done and
Continues to do so as my life moves along
With the holy spirit present inside me
I can do all things though Christ I am strong
Decisions that I make throughout each day
Are easier for me as Christ guides my way
My prayers are for those who desire a new start
Give up your past ways and ask Christ into your heart
Partake of the blessing that a relation brings
Knowing that with god in your heart you can do all things
