Forsaken

Forsaken, he was spat upon Pharisees set him up enemies sold him down the river his own half-brothers did not trust Him best friends fell asleep when he asked them to watch and pray Forsaken, I am not shaken when I'm mocked, I turn away to pray people ignore my questions and neighbors turn their heads. Remembering the prophet Samuel and the words God told him, "Listen to all that the people are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected me as their king." written February 1, 2017

How true! It sure is difficult to walk the talk, but that's what Christ demands:)

Thanks for the read, Jo, it's also dangerous to talk your walk in places where the government is restrictive on certain beliefs.
