I am a Child of God

I am a child of God

I am a child of God…
But…I feel vulnerable to pain.
I know his love…
And his grace…
Yet...people still judge me by my face.
As if I should feel shame.
My God communicates to me on all levels…
Still the world tries to put restraints on my soul.
I have accepted his calling.
Then I heard whispers…
Whispers of failure.
My heavenly father laced me…
Laced me with wisdom.
While others call it dreams.
He has shown me, my vision.
Peers call it a wish.
We have connected spiritually.
Some define it as just prayer.
His kindness fills me when I am melancholy.
Others speak as if I don’t wear a care.
Our paths are constantly crossed as I travel in my days.
Good luck is mocked…
Accompanied by wise tales.
The Alpha and Omega…
The creator most high.
I carry his sangreal.
I am a breath from his flow.
Listening to only my heartbeat…
Which carries his vine.
The apple to my hunger…
Consuming my appetite with him.
I am God’s child.
Therefore I am loved.
The deepest love manifested.
And the true st story of my life.
I walk and pledge, to be…
What he has discussed.
I am a child of God.
Therefore his glory to carry…I must.

Reviewed by Kathy Armijo 10/2/2007
Not only is this spiritual, but shows a strong unbreakable trust in and love for God. This is God inspired [I think]. You are truly blessed "... Therfore his glory to carry ... I must." Your road will never be the easiest [as you've said], but with Him by your side guiding you and loving you - you will have His comfort.
