You follow the King of Kings.
When others suggest you have low self esteem, stand.
You don't dance to the beat of their music.
The only approval you ever seek is that of your Father in Heaven.
We all receive gifts, use them wisely,
but walk the path of humility.
Those who seek fame and adulation know the terrible price
they can pay when the bubble bursts.
Be aware you are truly precious to a Holy God,
but also minute and unimportant in the scheme of things.
HIS PLAN IS UNFOLDING.
Blessed with your revelation of the divine you are truly
set apart, your destiny assured.
Isaiah 35 - 8
A highway shall be there and a road,
And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness,
The unclean shall not pass over it.
But it shall be for others.
Don't listen to the siren call of this world,
or the constant stream of directive rhetoric
from both lay and religious leaders,
power is a jealous mistress, they will conform,
their opium position and place, control of the masses.
GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED
Isaiah 26 - 20
Come My people, enter your chambers,
And shut your doors behind you,
Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment,
Until the indignation is past.
For behold, the Lord comes out of His place,
To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity
The earth will also disclose her blood,
And will no more cover her slain.
DIFFERENT
I'm lonely in this crowd,
they want and I won't give,
myself, or change the way I live.
Dare to be different, or just give in,
turn from His teaching, walk in sin.
It simply begins with a compromise,
half truths, deception, leading to lies.
Dare to be different, lost in a crowd,
abuse and comment shouted loud.
Bright eyes shine His truth and command,
every thought word and deed, placed in His hand.
I draw a line, I will not cross,
fickle hearts are not my loss.
My gaze must reach the eyes that see,
the beauty of the soul in me.
Father, when the sirens call, help me to be strong,
remind me of Your promise and the place where I belong.
