It was a long time before I really knew who I really was and…whose…I was. It took a long, hard, worthwhile journey of many ‘highs and ‘lows’…but Thank God at last I found out; I am…A Child of the King! Above everything, I Treasure this. Pressing-on, Blesu!

She fled the sting of deceit and control turning her back on hypocritical phrases and devices Alone...through many places she traveled fiery passages attracted her eyes but cooled the soul like the pole's ices Though vast and fruitful watering places seemed to gingerly placate her yearnings eventually they proved to be barren...arid She took the scorn of critical eyes...which ignoring their own...motes... inspected her with cruel intent...jagged Seems she didn't dress right, she didn't... sing right, she didn't follow the 'cliques'... not making many 'friends' Strange and peculiar...she was termed upsetting some…because she now saw... what others termed 'right'...as a 'wrong' bend No, she didn't bother anyone but her very presence irked, and she moved on... yet carrying with her a hope...a seed A promise of everlasting life fastened in her bosom, an indelible truth, then... while still looking, she met...A Man...indeed He embraced her, without fondling He... kissed her and loved her He stroked...without demand... wanting nothing in return...except... she Love Him the same...back Adoption papers were drawn she became His heir and then realized... the Word...burning within, over years span suddenly came alive in her heart... and was speaking, in fact What shall I call You she asked...that I may know what to call myself with good intention? Shall I call You Baptist? No, He answered Shall I call You Methodist? No, He answered What about Catholic, Presbyterian, Anglican or Adventist? No, He answered Shall I call You Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim or Islamic? No, He answered What about Pentecostal? No, I am not any of those...nor any other names you might think to mention Albeit, I AM...THAT I AM! I am Almighty God, I am Creator I am Redeemer and Savior, I am Holy Spirit I am Son of God, Son of Man, Savior of the world! I am Lamb of God, Bread of Life, Everlasting Light I am Prince of Peace, I am Wonderful Counselor I am Rock of Salvation, I am Yahweh, I am Jehovah I am Holy Spirit I am Mercy and I am Grace I am Jesus, The Bright and Morning Star I am Alpha and Omega, Beginning and the End I am...King of Kings! And no matter what another implies no matter how their judgement flies No matter if a million...may shun and, now and again...thump...one With all your faults and blights which only...I...can right Beyond the very end of time you are and ever will be...Mine! Thus, do not vex yourself and ache... seeking the 'right name' in a bottomless lake For, you...are one of the reasons why angels sing... you are...A CHILD OF THE KING!

I'm certainly glad that you got off the wrong track and onto the right one in your mind.

A univocal 3rd person insight into the writer. Finding the Truth (or in some cases the Truth finding you) is the most important thing any human being can accomplish. Hopefully, as the day approaches, a child of the Most High God can claim no regrets in life, just lessons learned, and with a fully rooted understanding that the Creator [keeps and protects] His own from too much success in the world system for a good reason. Thanks for sharing... rlc
