*this is meant to be a spoken word poem… but I wrote it out for the rest of you to enjoy. 🙂

I was seemingly stuck

Lost in the confusion and the refusin
of God’s truth
I held on to lie after lie after lie
 
Why?
 
I would stand and then fall stand and then fall, stand and
       cry my eyes out
you see, I was trusting in my own hand

Oh sure I cried out to God,
Help me help me but don’t tell me something I don’t wanna hear
out of fear I might have to wait
Don’t tell me to give up this or that, theres no room for debate
So I allow the inner resistance to continue
though its tearing me apart from You…
My lips proclaim I want Your will not mine
But I cant seem to step past this boundary line into the inheritance that You have for me

Im at the end of my rope, is there no hope?
Im a broken hot mess failing test after test.
Im no competition to the enemy, he’s grown bored of my gullibility
So what now Lord?
 
It was time to get radical
So God took me on an 11 month sabbatical
No doubt did I hesitate but that could never intimidate
the merciful Magistrate whose desire is to mediate between my life and the Father
always pursuing, always defending with a never ending love
 
So I learned the truth of the abuse of my enemy
I began to recognize his lies
growing righteously angry enough to say,

      HELL? NO!
 
finally understanding my authority, freedom reigned
I was delivered from lies that had chained me for years
and had caused too many tears to count

 

those wretched arrows meant to pierce
only resulted in an unrelenting fierceness: a battle cry for justice
 
Now aware of the Source of my victory
soul resounding in fanfare I declared to my attempted destroyer

I AM A WARRIOR.
 

Yes and now I find myself in a beautiful romance

I AM A WARRIOR.


And all I have to do to fight

                                             is  dance.
