Vincent Flannery Poet Rhyme

Humility

It's  not a trait of mine even as I have grown 
Those close to me hear me whine and moan
Though I've failed as against society I speak
The One I've hailed told me about being meek

Those in need, those who have lost their way
Those of greed and those who no longer pray
All the lonely, all those Hearts that are broke 
Jesus has set you free in the Words He Spoke

He is the light, He is the One that I follow
Giving me sight, teaching me not to be hollow
For He always forgave and loved His Children
 Only Jesus is able to save all women and men

So if I become overbearing in matter of tone
It's not for lack of caring as you might bemoan
In all due sincerity in the urgency of the heart
I just want you to be free and I have to do my part

Joanna Daniel November 10, 2016 at 6:41 AM So true, that last stanza rings loudly:) Vincent Flannery November 10, 2016 at 12:37 PM If a child nears a cliff and you must tackle them to save their life, is that too rough. We are who God made us and wants us to be. Know and Feel His Joy in speaking His Name. I often go way out on a limb, and the moment I feel regret in speaking of His Name, He just shows me the view. Plus He keeps the weeds away. Am I worthy, NO! But who is and why aren't they doing it then. It is Right and Just. God Bless!
