All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. Isaiah 64:6 NIV God by your grace, we have been given all. That , one shall need, but yet we stumble and fall To worried about the outside of the cups appearance While the inside is corrupted by incoherence For our own works to be tossed like filthy rags Oh, how many seek glory of man as they brag Unknowingly, the leaf has lost its source Of life to be blown away by wind of force. Shall ,one seek to rid these clothes of stain To receive a new robe from the death of a grain Then will the inside begin to glow With a newfound love and joy to show No longer in division of ones skin But birthed into a new family of kin To become in unity in the I AM That provided a path by His pure Lamb That we might become One flock And be known as one of His stock So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Galatians 3:26?-?29 NIV

We are given everything by our Heavenly father. But we are never happy and crave for more. We seek man's praise. Until we seek God's glory, we will be denied true life." That we might become One flock/ And be known as one of His stock". This is what God expects from us. Beautiful Stephan....

Your muse must have took charge because it demands a compliment for this work of art. You earned it.
