Poem
My heart*, God wants you to be under His control surely For out of you come issues of my life tremendously; Your evil motives provoke me consciously Enabling my will to harden obstinately. My heart, to God do I entrust you with earnestness For you must be changed from your deceitfulness; Your negative reactions lead me toward faithlessness Drowning my soul into depths of doubtfulness. My heart, I give you to God for His direction For you ought to follow biblical instruction; Your foolish counsels pull me down to frustration Causing my spirit to wallow in desperation. My heart, you need God’s discipline for your molding For you become so stubborn and unbending; Your proud perversions keep me unyielding Weakening my convictions’ from their firm standing. My heart, your confidence in God must always be constant For you easily waver that makes me futile and dormant; Your unstable ways confuse me in every instant Robbing me of His joy, peace and blessings so abundant. My heart, keep submitting to God’s commandments For you, by His power, can help me reach heavenly attainments Your willing attributes propel me to comply to godly agreements Driving my persistence to pursue after eternal achievements. My heart, victory in God awaits you in your humility For you can be perfectly wholly for Him in His working ability; Your unselfish desires push me to seek His kingdom’s priority Moving me to serve Him with truth and sincerity. *Proverbs 4:23 "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." April 11, 2018 Edited on February 4, 2019 Dramatic Monologue with Rhyme 10th place, "2019 Poetry Marathon Mile 16" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Mark Toney; judged on 2/6/2019. Featured poem of the week, May 23-29, 2021
