Within Grace

writing with love

God is Love May 4, 2011

Evil doer
You attempted to lead me astray,
You are the liar
You are the denier
A false prophet,
You did not withstand my tests.

 

My fears
Have been driven out
By perfect love,
The one who is in me
Is greater
Than the one who is in the world.

 

Lost
In lawlessness
You remain
In death,
A murderer
Outside of eternal life.

 

I carry with me
The spirit of truth
I am in chains for Christ,
Victory will be mine
Born of God
I will overcome the world.

 

Insist my truth is stupid
Not to worry, boy
I have faith
My ‘stupidity’
Will last for eternity.

 

I am not surprised
That the world
Hates me,
For I have passed
From death
To life.

 

Love me as I loved you
Not with words
Instead,
With actions
And in truth.

 

I didn’t know where I was going
The darkness
Had blinded me,
Not everything of the world
Comes from
The Father.

      Thank you V. I was inspired by Philippians and 1 John. I’m not only speaking to the enemy in this spiritual battle, but also false worldly prophets that work against the Lord and His followers. This is poem is me standing up for my self, my beliefs, and the word of God… refusing to back down despite the hate thrown my way. Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment. Blessings.

    Not everything is good and wholesome in the world and very gracefully put Reese – I enjoyed it – not a believer but always open to words and ideas from other points of view :)
