Relavent Beginning
sometime after the evident end
a relavent beginning can start
if we are not rigid, but able to bend
we can learn to open up our heart
many sorrows have receeded into memory
though our sadness still weighs so much
the good times may seem like fantasy
from our wounds we don't often lose touch
there comes a time in most of our cases
when the bad overwhelms the good within
then our soul cries out, andf fear hides our faces
recoiling from our selves, and the depth of our sin
this is the moment when all seems lost
and there is a terrible price to be paid
we confess, and become willing to pay the cost
if we want our monster to shrivel and fade
we must let out our anger and pain
cast to the wayside resentment
by losing much that is familiar we gain
a precious, and elusive contentment
happiness is found in largest measure
through others and mostly from giving
we need not pay to share in the treasure
happiness is free, and the richest goal of our living
through our eyes and others, we can be redeemed
if we open our minds and become willing
there is more to life than ever we dreamed
becoming empty with grace is fulfilling
there is a catch for us to forgive
we must seek mercy and understanding from those around
we have to have help if we would continue to live
we must kneel if we would place our feet on the ground
honesty is the power that gives us light
to see past our thoughts to our emotion
they can be our guides to wrong or right
while faith can set our recovery in motion
we can learn to regain our forgotten joy
if we grasp the truth and hang on
though it will often irritate and annoy
our right to deny and belittle is gone
this is a difficult and emotional task
honesty, willingness, and open minds without fears
fotr those there is help, you need only ask
thousands like you have recovered for years
----------
to the wise, never trust a Christian, and probably not anybody else. Trust God, in your
prayer closet, and, the walls may have ears,
and the people who may hear? jump to conclusions, are ignorant, concieted, and don't know
YOU
TRUST GOD, "THE Sponsor"
