I Am a Vessel

I now live for Jesus and Jesus lives in me I feel His creation as to who He wanted me to be As I read His Words, my heart and mind begins to remember Of how much God truly loves me; stretching his arms a-cross forever And from His strife’s He has paved the road, brick by brick as for the sins I owed I have lived long enough independent, in my own understanding, who am I kidding? I know now that I can’t do it on my own, I need the Holy Spirit, so I’ll never be alone It took me awhile to know I am free; my heart was blinded by the world’s philosophy But now is the time to put the old things away and breathe this day in a special way It’s now time for the art to do the creating; following the path where God is waiting I now ask you, whoever is reading this, come with me in search for a spiritual bliss I promise you, you’ll not going to be sorry; where God is, you’re part of the story We are brothers and sisters, you and I; we are destined to live beyond the sky We’re born as a reflection of our father’s Father; blessed by the Holy water If by chance you’re wondering where you are, in our journey in the dark We are heading straight home towards the light; you’re in Noah’s Ark By Wilbert Dela Cruz 6-4-16

I actually didn't know there was one but otherwise having someone read my writings by real poetry writers, or anyone else who just love poetry; I already feel overly satified

I almost said you could have entered in shape form, by I figured you knew that already.

Thank you Eve. Just for reference's sake, I just feel like it needed to be said that the shape was suppose to be a representation of Noah's Ark, from the back point of view.
