Goodbye 2010, Today a New Year Begins

Goodbye 2010,

 This year I increased

With the help of my Father

I thank Him greatly for

That. I lost somethings

That gave glory to myself

In order to gain for the glory

Of Him. Yes, I must confess

That Satan did bother me,

But He did not win all because

Of the Grand Who that lives

Within my heart. The thief

The little who that lies beneath

Caused must mischief but my

Grand Father turned his mischief

To a work of art indeed a masterpiece

At the end of 2010,  I was still

Being attacked by the enemy

Because he sees my Father in me

And is threatened by it. I kept

Praying, praising, shouting,

And declaring that God is my

Father and I'm His royal daughter

Indeed and in me He planted a seed

That will continue to grow and

Will help others so that the

Kingdom of God grows and

The redeemed of the Lord

Will say so be proud and take back

What the stole and stand

Bold and say out to the

Young and old, black and

White will stand together

And let the battles of life

The Almighty Father fight.

Goodbye 2010, today a

New Year begins. I make

A firm commitment to strive

For excellence in 2011, to

Leave the past behind, to

Let go and let God, and

Help others gain, and

Not entertain foolishness,

Continue to write, and

Continue to let God for

Me fight, Continue to

Celebrate the gift

Jesus Christ who came

To give us life and it

More abundantly. 2011

I will definitely make a

Commitment to do God's

Business and witness about

His goodness and mercy.

I thank God for my growth

And ultimately the growth

In the kingdom in 2010.

Most of all I thank God

For today the first  day

Of 2011, and  today a new

Year begins!
