The Spark
The Spark
I believe
I am a law breaker
Reprieved from a sentence to dwell in a dark , empty , bottomless internal well .
I believe
Strengthen me to make a stand, when I am bereaved by lovers of this corrupted world.
Who’s efforts are to uproot me as a unwanted weed.
I believe
Encourage me,
To climb out of the mire.
I often find my self engulfed in,
When I have wondered off the path of light,
And I have been deceived by the prince of lyres
I believe
You ignited a spiritual spark in my soul.
Inspire me to cultivate the spark ,into a
A consuming fire.
By feeding it with kindling of the Word,Spirit, servitude.
I believe
You have anointed me to be a touch bearer.
Carry the light of truth to the dark shadowy places where deception thrives.
To bring the warmth of the flames of love and hope, that will melt coldness of hate and destruction.
I believe
With out Jesus the Christ
I am unable to confront my enemies
With courage and nobility as a man.
Instead I scurry a long the floor searching for a hiding place, like a terrified mouse.
