Thumbs Up

Noticed I woke up so early in the morning today Maybe, it was for a greater purpose in His eyes I am feeling a positive vibe, wishing it would stay Oh Lord, forgive my sins daily, for my heart sighs Whisper happiness in my eager ears, dear God Your Tranquil Spirit is surrounding me like my dazzling auras I know You’re there no doubt – I mentally nod I slipped and fell on my face so many times due to past flaws I did miss waking up before the dawn before school Perhaps, my head was in the clouds for way too long Yeah, I finally admit – I am guilty for playing the fool Life is like an endless song, longing to simply belong My insecurities got in the way and I regret it believe it or not Positivity seems to be on my back time and time again…good thing! I might be lacking sleep somewhat, but it’s not all for naught Negativity tried to snatch me away from the Truth and everything… I want to be close to my blankets right now due to the odd weather I wish I can do away with these worthless muses that I think up sometimes Oh Lord, get rid of my anxieties and sorrows for the greater better I guess people have been saying I have healing gift…more priceless than dimes : ) I need some encouragement to move forward from where I am…where I am… I stumbled upon some bad habits recently and I am seeking mercy Really hoping that I take your Word for granite no more, for I am Your Lamb I am chasing away the spirits of hopelessness to reach out to glee Oh Lord, give me a thumbs up and or a sign that I’m doing a better job than before Noticed that I wasted so much of my time – worrying is my weakness in all mere honesty Put out the fire of wicked desire and nourish me with Your Agape Love that I adore Missed who I used to be back then in a sense, but I can’t go back to where I used to be Don’t desert me right now…yes, I will make it up to You by changing bit by bit I know I’ve rejected You countless times by my heartless actions, but life’s struggles can get so tough… I don’t want to feel guilty for sinning endlessly…I’m literally getting tired of it Letting go of stress that will do more harm than good…that weight on my shoulders – I had enough! I want confidence, self-control, patience and all kinds of things pertaining Your nature The world has had a big influence in my life and the violence I see is awfully impure… Your Knowledge is underrated to the core in pop culture I’m really sorry for being a resentful, bittersweet vulture Standing my ground while the hurricane of insanity tries to pull me in with it Go ahead and tell me to be a stronger me…I will be truly happier, not being on my own I need to set free my inner glow and unchain myself from this painstaking pit Come on and shed me some relief, not grief, even if I’m left with my imaginary friend, Alone My soul strings are loosening up, still feeling blind – you see? My delicate heart has been broken too many times emotionally I’m ready for Your miracles and blessings full of mirth I notice the ground shaking by the tension of the Earth Sick of pretending to be a fine someone I’m not I need prudent faith to start rebuilding my cracked bones with joy in heart I know You will not allow me to sit here and rot I need to look to His Light, instead of sinking in the darkness from the start Thumbs up for an uplifting gratitude from looking up to Him Thumbs up for waking up pretty early today and in a repenting mood Thumbs up for God’s mercy every time my lamp light goes dim Thumbs up for the times He understands that I’ve been doing good He appreciated the many prayers I prayed He gave me a thumbs up for the sins I paid Whisper those pure words of heavenly benevolence He gave me a thumbs up for building up some sense Noticed I couldn’t sleep last night to my derisive dismay Perhaps, I shouldn’t worry and put it in His hands today Definitely a thumbs up for that! Here’s a smile for the Father who’s beyond worthwhile Thankfully, God’s right hand will hand me enthusiasm and positive vibes in spiritual style

"Life is like an endless song, longing to simply belong", "Sick of pretending to be a fine someone I’m not" (this lines jumped out at me) ... I'm sure He will give you a thumbs up, good and faithful servant you are.
