Wisdom

I’m writing another life bringer
Sunshine that’ll linger
This Bright light shining 
Brighter than diamonds on your finger
Straight knowledge kicking 
Straight verse spitting
Scripted through my pen
Then put on a page and written

I’m here to help find the missing
Quiet your mouth and listen
There’s more to this life
Besides violence, lusts 
and various ways of sinning
Obtaining Knowledge is a treasure 
That is Smooth like the finest linen 
And with knowledge comes Wisdom 
the ability to be Deep end diving
And intellectually swimming
You can find the answer at the end 
But you gotta start at the beginning

You were created to live this life
So live this life with purpose
Your more than flesh and blood
There’s a soul underneath the surface
That’s Intertwined with a destiny 
That is found in Bible verses 
But following the world 
Only leads to sorrow, grief and hearses
How many times have you observed this
This is the repetition of generational curses
And what’s worse is
It’s a chain that will bind you
That evil will never free you
That’s the reason it’s called curses

Not everything that glitters is gold
important facets of this existence 
Can never be bought or sold 
And wisdom will lead ya 
And teach ya
But it’s more than doing what your told
It’s a lifestyle that you choose
When you choose the narrow road....

Because wide is the gate
And broad is the way 
That leadeth to destruction 
 many are called
But few are chosen
And even less follow God’s instruction...

It’s a struggle this life..
You gotta be learning to live
And In that learning
You will learn it’s a struggle to forgive
Jesus says it’s good to receive
But it’s even better when we give
So give abundantly 
So that others may live

Your presence is the better present
Don’t live your life holding onto the past
You gotta live it in the present
And be at peace with yourself 
And presently you will find that 
Your life becomes pleasant
And with Love in your heart
You will give the better present 

The fear of the Lord 
is the beginning of all knowledge 
Submit 
surrender 
Bow down 
and pay homage

Ask for wisdom
And receive wisdoms instruction 
Then apply wisdom
And choose life
Over destruction 
Speak Life to others
By Speaking truth when you talk 
Keep your thoughts on things that are Godly
And let Your Faith be solid like rock
Also Pray for your steps to be ordered 
And God will order where you walk

With knowledge applied to your thinking
You will find Life, success, and wealth
But wisdom will order you
And lead you
To love your neighbor 
As you love yourself.
