A living sacrifice


A means of brave confrontation 
Magical and fruitful 
By which patience consults arid goals impossible 
Breaking every abomination 

A permissive individualised  decision 
That bury lust so awful 
Efficient and effective 
Love loving act without any permission 

Not done to seek attention 
Amid all struggle 
Presenting presents so beautiful 
Witnesses shall continue to mention 

Waiting for the rain in anticipation 
It isn't bad being hopeful
But while in trial not successful 
Roaming in sin seems a temptation 

Sapphira's sacrifice is not a compulsion 
Wants to be boastful 
The do so  deceitful 
Ends her staged probation 

Abraham stands in determination 
Leaving all reality and not been mindful 
Of the yet to know claimed blissful 
And all through enjoys divine intervention 

There is no confusion 
Just the ache of been fearful 
Makes acting weird been  painful 
Its end will relieve doubt stressing clarification 

And your name will buy continuation 
All existence shall learn how dutiful
Throughout uncertainty yet available 
Making room for foes alleviation
