Potent Poetry
This post has been a long time coming, only I didn't know it.
I'm a woman of faith, its time to show it.
Sure I could do more actions to back words I have preached my whole life,
But the truth is, following Jesus shouldn't cut like a knife.
I know this is highly odd and out of the blue,
but old actions don't make the world new.
A journey that has literally been thorns and stones.
Still at long last, in my heart I am coming home.
I choose you Jesus, no words needed you already paid the price.
Even if it costs me my life, right is right.
I need to be rescued from this dark light.
This black, red and white pony show must end tonight.
I give you all the glory, and all of the praise.
I choose to live for you, for all of my days.
So then enough dagger and cloak.
Fear shut up, this is no time to croak..
Sometimes faith requires reason take the back seat.
See I'm extremely calculated, but still I choose to live on my knees.
All for the sake of my king, Father have your way please.
You hold the pen that scripted my life, and how beautiful is this love story.
So to you dear Jesus, I give all the glory.

I could give this much more explanation then I'm going to, but simply put, I need to be clear about priorities before getting back to working on this blog the way I want to.
Let's just say the pandemic has left its mark on me and I'm not exactly sure its clear where my allegiance lies.
With that in mind, this is my very public declaration that I do now, and forever will belong to God most high.
Life has taken some strange turns these past few years, but at the core of my heart, I'm still a believer.
I'm so not feeling like myself right now, and honestly this blog is so far from ready for publishing, but I feel like its well over due for me to put my stake in the ground. There are so many reasons why I should wait until this blog is where I want it to be, but sometimes it is necessary to take a stand for where you stand.
That's literally all this is, I definitely have much better content planned in time but right now I've said what I came to say.
From here on on, Jesus have your way
