Shared Battle

This is not my battle,
cults, orders, secret societies
swelling up in thousands
with a unified goal of defeating me with anxiety.

I am but a child of God
deserving blessings as do others,
so my fight is one with inclusion
hand in hand with Jesus is my druthers.

I will shake off my fears!
I will walk with dignity!
Lord all high is here to love,
by grace, not implied responsibility!

Thank you for battling by my side
Jesus and God, protecting me on this ride.
