The Desire Not To Be Me
There was a time I was just me
quite happy that way thought I ok
but deep inside I didn't know
something not right in my piece of clay
I lived with eyes that couldn't see
a mind that truly didn't really know
having a heart that had no feeling
spiritually it was just status quo
But then a day arrived out of the blue
I heard an alarm bell sounding a ring
looking back now it was God's spirit
planting a desire to fly my wing
My heart was open for the first time
felt a desire for God this to agree
learn from Him all that's true
the desire not to be me!
God gave the desire to know Himself
rid me of the old self no longer a friend
living in Christ my saviour and king
and my life was never the same again
(This is penned focusing on the thought "...and my life was never the same again'' describing a life-changing moment in my life the moment God changed me for eternally.)
