G-d’s Grace
Posted by pinkemeralds under Blogroll, Christianity, Empowerment, Inspiration, Life, Love, Poetry, Religion, entertainment, insanity, the BluesDoes it really bother you when I speak of G-d’s grace?
Are you more worthy than I, has He shown you His face?
Maybe you think your more blessed than me
You’re a saint? Well, Isn’t that epiphany of hypocrisy?
So you judge my heart and seen I don’t deserve G-d’s mercy
You tell everyone to look at me, if she’s blessed she’d act accordingly
Well, I don’t judge your loyalty, My savior doesn’t only love me
He loves us all, My savior is not of discernability,
He even loves you and all your absurdity
I am blessed abundantly and no not all my acts are of obscurity
For some strange reason, My savior continues to protect me
Even in my rebellious, stubborn, and even mean impurities
So don’t send me no message on how to be until you act accordingly.

Thanks for the poetry blessing. Peace, Light and Love you and Yours this year, next year, and beyond…
“While I know myself as a creation of God, I am also obligated to realize and remember that everyone else and everything else are also God’s creation. This is particularly difficult for me when my mind falls upon the cruel person, the batterer, and the bigot. I would like to think that the mean-spirited were created by another force and under the aegis and direction of something other than my God. But since I believe that God created all things, I am not only constrained to know that the oppressor is a child of God, but also obliged to try to treat him or her as a child of God.” –Maya Angelou

Pink, I swear I have a sixth sense. While I was drying my hair this morning, I was thinking about your blog and how I haven’t read any poems for a while…and I open my blog and there’s a comment from you! How awesome is that? I really loved this one too, very honest feelings.
Thanks hismuse…I’m struggling right now. The new business, work, and a 10 month old has block my creativity. I need a weekend away from everything and see what develops. I’m glad you like this one. Just wish I had something new to post.
