RISE

God wants you to elevate 
He wants you to rise 
and these are the instructions 
you need to surmise

R
release what no longer serves you
let all that old baggage go
you can't hold to old habits and mindsets
if you truly want to grow
elevation requires release
like boosters on a rocketship
their purpose to take you only so far
for they're design to fall away & dip

I
intentionally is now how you operate
so move with purpose and resolution
let determination be your motivation
as you now strive with profusion 

S
strengthen your inner life by developing 
a strong discipline of character and conviction
and make sure your values and personal joy
have a faith based jurisdiction 

E
execute with obedience and not emotion
as growth requires mental movement
your confidence will then catch up
as you strive for personal improvement 

So R.I.S.E.rise up to the next level
and let go of any vague hope
remember to meditate on the Word of God
it will give you the foundation and fortitude to cope
