Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Psalms 25:5 NIV God our hope is in you Moment by moment That one might become less In order ,you might become more For your love is pure and true Guide one in your truth So one might see the deception In this world being held captive Confusion from deceitful hearts at bay Seeking to be their own shrine For one can be in the world But be pulled out from it God one can read your word to see Only through you is there a way to be free For ones soul to find a refuge In all the chaos around one Teach one who seeks the truth From the spirit promised To gain the hidden treasures Of understanding and knowledge Wisdom not taught by the flesh In ones weakness give one strength Receiving new vision and hearing To detect all the false teachings The eyes shall be opened to see All that trys to deter and reject What is not from from you. Hearing to discern false teachings Through your spirit sent Let one learn your ways To become pleasing in your eyes To become a temple for your presence That one might see this life is not our own We once had no way to return But through Christ one can be redeemed

Amen my friend, our hope should be one day people might get smart enough to see they are fighting against God, the word of God is the same as when written, but it takes the spirit promised from God to reveal these things in ones life, God said they must worship in spirit and truth. May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: )

"Only through you is there a way to be free".... I do believe this fully and firmly. When we realize the Truth, we see the deception in the world and try to turn away from it . May your faith draw you closer and closer to God. Enjoyed your poem with a lot of spiritual insight, dear Stephan.

Stephan, this was a very poetic writing, the metaphor is so delightful, and the faith and hope of the whole moment are just exquisite.

Well thank you my dear friend, all glory to God, it is for Him I write to express the change within, not of my own doing, I got that metaphor learning from going to school to get my PHD. (public high school) degree. Lol. : )
