In but not of

Never feeling as part of
Or knowng the sense of belonging
Never truly seeing the love
Shown by you to other who just grab
Never returning and always taking
Never thanking yet always receiving

Looking within and seeing whats grim
Unholy and shameful
Looking without and seeing no difference
Even when tried to live
Feeling no part of this earthly coil
Yet no part of any heavenly gain

What rushing fears being left behind
Disasterous anger at hope defered
eclipse with raging lusts of depravity
Born of unclean lips and heart

Even still not part of this world
Nor it seems allowed the next
But in it none the less
To what end
Maybe a vessel of honor
Or of shame to be discarded

Who am I to question
What defence have I
The words to be uttered forth
Is that it be done as is willed
Not mine ... destruction would ensue
But in Him from whom all grace issues

AND SO IT IS... WE THAT TAKE JESUS CHRIST AS OUR PERSONAL SAVIOR ARE...'IN THE WORLD, BUT NOT OF THE WORLD. WE DO OUR VERY BEST...AND JESUS DOES THE REST.(GAL 2:20) WE TRY...OUR VERY BEST...TO REACH PERFECTION...BUT IF WE DO NOT REACH IT... WE GET THE CREDIT FOR AT LEAST 'TRYING', THROUGH HIS GRACE AND MERCY, TO BE WHAT HE WOULD HAVE US TO BE. GREAT WRITE THAT IS DONE WELL. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
