Ego

When I know my Ego self has ceased to be,
and when my heart and mind have been set free.

To wake and move forth throughout my day
and share the miracle, you have sent my way.

I take these miracles and spread them far,
as I travel by plane, train, boat or car.
And If I did not leave the house at all
someone who had needs would come, or call

The wonders of what you've shared with me
are not meant to be kept hidden selfishly.
I must joyously throw the Ego to the side
that I might see truth with a clearer eye.

For there are many out there just like me
who seek this same knowledge desperately.
So I ask to be busy about your work today
and with your help, keep the ego far away.

Lord Jesus, if you see me and find me lacking,
we will know the ego is busy attacking.
Touch me with your gentle love and hold me close,
for now I know, of the two, I need you most.

Life Lessons Learned

I think the world would be
a better place

If we could see it through
our Creator's face

A face through which man's time
does not exist

Events that take place are but
a gentle kiss

The end result of which would
cease to be

Our thinking that "I" am the
only important "ME"

Life's Burdens

Life's Burdens

My back, heavy and bent, in real physical pain, 
saying I am sorry over and over and over again.
My many apologies have nothing to gain,
their anger resonates loudly in my brain.

My heart is weary, tired and sad, never without,  
guilt that I carry with me, day in and day out.
My sorrow, being genuine, still cannot bring about,
forgiveness from family, although devout.

Words fall upon deaf ears, that want only to blame,
tears cannot, and will not, bring about any change.
Hurting them, knowing not from where my anger came,
cannot they see how painful it is, and my shame?

When my life is finished, when they lay me to rest,
then the lord will listen, holding me to his breast. 
He will be the one that will hear my sins confessed,
helping others forgive me, being my first request.
