A BRIGHTR SHADE OF WHITE

Oh the purity that I chase. Longing to be free from the worry on my face. I wish to be clean and free from my sins. Following my Lord is the only way I win. Wondering through the night I stare back at the stars. Being mindful of the pain as I hide all my scars. I only want things to fall in place right. I long to be in a brighter shade of white. I don’t hurt others as they will hurt me. I let things go so I can remain free. As I travel through this life never knowing where it goes. I never forget my God and what my spirit truly knows. That I am to be holy as my Father is holy and that is such a task. How do I do that? I always have to ask. I find myself asking what would Jesus do? Never doing anything that leaves me feeling blue. I just want to be one with my creator. Be thankful for all He gives me and be like my savior. Getting through the days and making it safely through the night. Come out cleaner on the other side in a brighter shade of white.
