God's Own Heart

After God's own heart I ran the race 
Focusing on enduring to the end 
With the eyes of my heart opened seeing God high and lifted up
For the prize of the Crown not a trophy nor money
Reading studying meditating on God's Word writing it all on the table of my heart
Being an imitator of God as a dear child
I know where I have been where I am going
It's the middle that I long to get right in the sight of God Almighty Who is the Great I AM
Those things that I desire to be acceptable and pleasing to Him and Him alone casting down imaginations in the name of Jesus Christ fore it is those distractions that are costly
Seeking God through prayer and meditation is partly the key
It is when I put on the Whole Armor of God that I am connected feeling protected by the One True God Who thought of me before the foundation was formed knowing what His purpose is for my life
I am a bold soldier in the Army of the LORD
A woman after God's own heart
Not always from the start Yes, to the finish
