For Unseekin Seeker's contest

“free from conditioned belief no agenda on our shelf vibrant as the light of Self life flows on all by itself” Love of raw self is liberating It is a beautiful thing to esteem Self actualization is emancipating Flow within it as healthy blue stream Tis no accident you are so unique Wonderfully and fearfully made Whether in youth or as an antique Soul you’re in your designated space It takes all kind of pressure To make a precious diamond Often inside we feel amber alone That’s when we can find HIM The Curator of our heart of art The Potter making us pure souls We are the product of a gracious God Even if we don’t really yet know Ignorance can be a bouquet of bliss Until life becomes bitter and sour We then find the Creator’s holy kiss Of love in our most needed hour The lucky find this in yellow youth Some discover in maturity of ages There is no time limit on teal truth Reflection is in our hearts and faces When you have a cranberry calling No agenda you surrender to nature The path provides like pearls falling From holy scriptures by saintly Savior Humbled hearts have no vanity For fire and life has purple pruned And despite lavender life’s insanity We become like the flowers bloomed So trust the Lord and His process Life flows on all by itself every day You are a work of His hazel holiness Keep this fact in your heart silver safe

"So trust the Lord and His process Life flows on all by itself every day" These are beautiful thoughts, dear Karen. Life flows by itself without strain. Our life is a vessel designed by our Lord. So it will naturally drift over tides and float smooth over the surface without sinking.
