Gotcha !
Tingly skies full of surprise oh how I love when with surmise,
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were, poetic art !
His countenance reeks of admiration, which speech can't disguise—
but much of this—his

Approval Rating
Thumbs up or thumbs down,
Public voice, a shifting tide,
Numbers speak their minds.

Integrated For Your Approval
That ADHD got me judged unfavourably,
impulsive interactions, easily distracted,
attention bouncing behaviour unique to me,
the odd one out and always told
different people, same old...
self conscious suffering from a lack of control,
humiliation on the regular, bad feedback on the whole.
Every decision of mine made aware of,
self worth in decline,

Your the God Whose Shown Me That My Approval Is Made-
God
Oh and all mine efforts Lord
Worth your approval so;
and My God you're God whose shown me that my approval is made
Mercy grace shines in my face
It's placed on the altar;
Help me yet still Father;
And may you the Lord, our God show
May you God shoe thine approval
And so

Oh and all mine efforts Lord
Worth your approval so;

Approval Is Weakness
I gave up on winning my mothers approval because I never received it,
in doing so gave up on winning approval and set free of it,
I do not know what this win offers and thus I do not need it,
I do not crave peoples acceptance thus I do not seek it,
my self worth

Stardom awaits but need power to resume

Approval Gaze
Exposed by Your divine glowing glance
My soul melted in carnality’s shame
Revealing hypocrisy lurking against guilt…
I earnestly repent midst judgment-balance.
Caught by Your compassionate look, never hasty
My heart yielded to be locked inside Your fortress, love-built
Delightfully abiding in Your gracious imprisonment
Braced upon mercy and truth’s security.
In Your omniscience, I’m kept in Your care
Never facing terror of grievous

Said Best By Lovers Approval

and soiled by it haver
is love borrowed
and brokered into

or are lover gold brickers

than are these new positions next
by design
that the authors of these storied
mentions are acted out
in performances
to be seen by those who relate

The Approval Seeker
The woman fretted too much over this and then that.
Was her hair the correct color or was she perhaps a tad fat?
Did her neighbors really like her or was it all make-believe?
She whimpered softly and wiped a rivulet of tears with her sleeve.
She then remembered she was a truly a creation of the most High
God.
And

His Approval Ca
Abandon your feelings of anguish
Abate your thoughts of appetency
Allure your beliefs in the apostles
Assuage your spirits of animosity
~
Absolve your heart’s solid armor
Awry are your moods of aversion
Auras of your judgements atrocious
Alive are your dreams so auspicious
~
Awakening your views on attrition
Attempting to give you real altruism
Appoint your joy to this admiration
Adoration of God’s Son’s approval

Pre-Approval
If something needs to be approved,
The answer, it would seem,
Should be yes or no, unless, of course,
You’re living in a dream.
And that is where I am today
For logic’s been removed
When prescriptions can’t be filled because
They are not pre-approved.
Will someone please explain that “pre?”
It doesn’t make much sense
For a doc to justify the drugs
She’s chosen to

My Hunger For God's Approval
I do hunger and yearn for the Almighty’s righteousness
To enjoy His offered relationship-graciousness
Only He can fill my soul’s grievous emptiness
Midst my heart’s need for total forgiveness
With His redemption-completeness.
I now hunger for God’s approval that brings Him glory
By faith’s appetite, vanquishing unbelief-misery…
Trusting His promises of enriching treasury
In proclaiming His Gospel story
I reach-out by His
