Above All Else....I Seek You


Above family and friends......I seek you. Above work and school......I seek you. Above sports......I seek you. Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8) Above jewelry, shoes, clothing, technology....I seek you. Above popularity....I seek you. Above school grades and eligibility....I seek you. Above all else.....I seek you. Above the schemes of the devil......I seek you, Lord. Above fear, doubt, darkness, anger, hatred, bitterness, envy, and jealousy.....I seek you. Above the ups and downs in life....I seek you. Above accusations and mocking....I seek you. If persecution were to come....I will still seek you. In the waiting, the praying, the mourning, the weeping, the rejoicing....I seek you. Matthew 6:33 ~ "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you."

Just tryna' write poetry that always glorifies God and who He is, what he has done for me, and what He can and will do for you! If God can transform my life, I know without a doubt he can transform yours too! You are NEVER too far gone, or broken for God! Come to Jesus just as you are and give your life to him and watch the change happen when you turn to Jesus and live for Him!! Being a Christian is never easy, just as life isn't easy, but our only hope is in Jesus Christ the one and only!!
