    Defining Myself

     


    If I don't have the courage

    To stand on what You said

    Even when I know it's the truth,

    That makes me a coward...


    If I find my safety in my

    Job status, Car I drive, House

    I live in etc. then my security 

    Is not in God!

    That makes me worldly...


    If I rely on people's good advice

    Rather than obeying the dreams

    And visions God has already put

    Inside of me-I am only hurting myself,

    That makes me hard-hearted


    If I don't have the faith

    To completely let God handle

    All my situations, worries and fears,

    Then I don't truly trust Him,

    That makes me an unbeliever


    Lord, As I re-arrange this self,

    Please turn me into someone else...

    Someone more like You in 

    Every way, shape and form

    That makes me Your child.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
