Good Bad Special Me

GOOD What’s good about me? Nothing and everything. Nothing because like everyone else I am a sinner; everything because like some I am saved. My attempt to do good is nothing at all unless I walk in my Father’s shoes BAD I can be like a tape on repeat. Can you visualize the movie reel: ‘round and ‘round it goes flapping in the wind, like flapjack pajamas, exposing the hind quarters to everyone. — happens when I feel wronged but sista…oh brother, by the grace of God I’m an overcomer SPECIAL I grin like a Cheshire cat, with my pearly off-whites. I carry my bible in my heart. Can’t take it away from me. it’s part of me — well Jesus is. Love my family, like most… I want the best for them like most… Like some, their eternity is a grave matter… I pray without ceasing. For them, you and me 3/9/2020

Kim, congratulations on your win. "flapjack pajamas, exposing the hind quarter" You reminded me of my husband and my sons at one time or another they did this. Thank you for entering my contest. Hugs Eve

Beautifully done my friend. I am racing back to reread it because I am sure that I missed something and I do not want to.
