Our Reason That We Are Eternal

Have you been told by man
To stay down with them,
That its right to stay this way
Because it is humble?
Yet I have learned that to be humble
Is to be grateful and loving.
Humble does not mean being boastful true...
That does not mean to halt the wonderment of one's spirit,
Of one's right to look up, stand up from where some 
Do just want to stay, crawl...
To lift up hands to lift up the feet in praise,
Joyful reverence to give our Father God looks of love
And send on such things as true gratitude for every perfect gift
No matter the size He bestows upon us through the way of His
Only begotten Son...
Jesus our beloved our reason that we are eternal...
So never be afraid to breathe, lift, thresh, dance, jump with mirth in 
Divine grateful gladness of heart, mind, body, soul.
Times of quiet to be sure.
Times of woe to deep cleanse the inner soul, one's wounds after 
Lows, life's experiences which sometimes leave us bent.
Then there is the renewing of everything in us and even around us.
Seeing the renewal in a new Light of Day... pressing in until there we are
Running into Father God's arms as He patiently waits... so glad He is to 
See us as He hugs us tight asking if we are alright .
Then inside of His warm forgiving, such loving embrace we say that everything
Is so bright, then ask Him how He is even while knowing the answer because
That's just what a father's child would do amen.
