MIND O MAN

"THE HEART OF THE RIGHTEOUS STUDIETH TO ANSWER: BUT THE MOUTH OF THE WICKED POURETH OUT EVIL THINGS. THE LORD IS FAR FROM THE WICKED: BUT HE HEARETH THE PRAYER OF THE RIGHTEOUS." Proverbs 15:28, 29

Who is it? How is it? These thoughts of the mind
Coming forth to carry me away from taking action
To practice diversions that will only take me from destiny's path.
Emerging without any warning...drawing my attention to the past
Accursed, accused, distorted, abused
The lies that try to settle here
In the shadows of time
Before I knew the truth
I was blinded by fear.
Longing to disappear into grace,
To be transformed, restored, embraced
By true love's arms.
Invited to partake of the bread and the wine;
Naturally nourished by divine eyes.
Searching infinitely beyond what was there
knowing the heart behind the prayer.
Hidden treasure dressed in armor
Fight until you can fight no longer!
Lift up your head
Awaken, O Warrior, rise from the dead!
Take unto you the joy of abiding in Him
Though you are at war, you are not a slave to sin.
Give the enemy no place, no ground to stand
For the true battleground is beneath the surface
Within the heart and mind of man.
