Disobedience

I realized
That life’s chaotic ingredients
Was manifested
By my own disobedience

Through my misguided Journey
Of acrimony
Scuttling on my belly like a snake I crawled

The enemy recruited me into his army
He didn’t love me, he only wanted to harm me
Through the trenches 
Trying to get back to Jesus
Like a baby, I bawled

Satisfying self was the devil device
I fell for his trickery and attended to his lies

I was confused by this aggravation
Couldn’t understand my situation
Through this misconception 
I sought out the light

Disobedience
A disastrous ingredient
You cannot serve God and Mammon 

Sin is a prolonged grievance
It’s tiresome and it’s tedious
Psalms 108:13 “I WIN!”

Smiles . . . i think this would sound great as a spoken word piece with a bit of a beat and some percussion in the background

Really enjoyed this beautiful poem of yours, there s always two ways, the bad and good, it s our choice to choose it, the bad way is always easier and je good will have struggle but in the end the wrong is lost and truth won, God always show us light, but we are so lost that we don t even realize it, when one door is close, another is open,but we grieve on closed door that we don t even realized the open one,
