Poem
When it comes to money, why do people speak poverty over their lives and have the fear of not having it? People speak, I don’t know what I’m gonna do That’s all I got I don’t know where imma get it from I’m not giving him my last... yo last? I’m broke, imma lil low right now Let me hold something I don’t have enough for that I gotta wait till I get paid When we get in this store, you better not ask me for nothing I can’t afford that, what you think, money grow on trees? I don’t get paid that much My check gone before I even get it… But when it comes to money, what is it? Is it the fear of lack of? People cry when they don’t have it. People get angry and upset and filled with uncertainty when they feel it’s running low. Does money cause enemies, break up friendships or relationships? Is money the root of all evil? Does money cause killings? Or is it your thought process or fear of not having it that causes you to respond or react? Money, money, money, people want to hold on to it for dear life and when you get it, somehow, it’s never enough. You want more, you need more, you gotta have more. It’s like an addiction. Having money is like a revolving door and it’s nothing but a switch a roo, in my account, out my account. From my account to the rent, to Walmart, the gas station, light company, cell phone bill, grocery store, internet, insurance, the shopping mall, children, borrowers etc. Can you loan me this? Can you zelle me that, you can cash app me this? Can I borrow $40.00 til Friday? When someone borrows something, it is a possibility that it is borrowed until for-never, because they’ll end up forever owing you. And when they see you, they constantly remind you by saying… oh, I got ya, imma get that to ya, I ain’t forgot about ya, it’s coming, I know I owe you, man, let me tell ya what happened, I had ya money… Yeah, yeah, yeah, done heard it all. If everyone paid me ALL the money they borrowed from me in my lifetime, well, that would be great, super great! When money is borrowed, why does one feel the need to explain what they need it for? Me, I’m either gonna give it to you or not. Your reason isn’t the reason I’ll lend it to you, so save your sob story. People get depressed, not always over money, but over the thought of not having it, the lack of being without. Ask yourself, how much control does money have over your life? Truth be told, you ain’t broke, your thought pattern is broke. Because of your mindset, when it comes to money, you allow the mind to break you down by breaking down all that could go wrong if you don’t have it, some of it, a lot of it, enough of it, more of it, all of it. People in their mind want to “be rich,” not realizing and acknowledging all the “riches” that is right in front of them. How about first being “Rich” in the spirit by understanding and being grateful for the simple pleasures in life, the things money can't buy. And please understand, we are ALL wealthy by God’s riches, so stop fearing using money for things needed today, because tomorrow ain’t promised. And one thing you can’t do if you leave this world is take it with you. Money, money, money, do not fear it. Do not speak poverty over your life anymore. Be mindful of what you speak and what you put out in the atmosphere. If you sit around saying things ain’t gon never get better, well guess what? Things ain’t gon never get better. If you say you ain’t got, then guess what? You ain’t got. Speak abundance, speak words of wisdom, speak positive affirmations. There is power in the tongue. Fill your mind with positive thoughts. Speak it into existence. Speak, I am abundantly blessed, I am financially debt free, I am wealthy, I am blessed beyond measure. Thank You Father God that all my bills are paid. Speak, I am strong, I am healed, I am covered, I am more than a conqueror, I am destined for greatness… Write it, Speak it and Believe it.
