Completeness

August 30, 2017

After you have been shattered and torn within your heart,

After the pain is still in your head, but has left your heart,

After the memories and flash backs are still there,

The wounds are deep inside as if they were a sword,

You hurt as if you had a toothache.

There seems to be no rest when you’ve done your best,

Everybody’s approval of your rights seems important to you,

Shackled and bound in the mind.

And you come to a conclusion . . . this has got to end!

Lord, I surrender all say you,

Faith is the substance of things hoped for,

The evidence of things not seen,

This is what you must believe.

This is the first step to completeness in the mind, heart,

emotions, and the spirit!

As water flows down the streams of a brook,

So is God’s completeness in your body, mind, heart,

emotions, and spirit.

In order for this to take place, you must first

be in unity with yourself, and then with God.

You must walk out of the old mind and past lifestyle you had.

Though others remember you, this is about, and between,

you and God.

When you yield to God and forgive yourself,

this is the beginning of completeness.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for,

the evidence of things not seen,

This is what you must believe.

This is the first step to completeness in the mind, heart,

and spirit.

As water flows down the streams of a brook,

So is God’s completeness in your body.

In order for this to take place, you must first

be in unity with yourself, and then with God.

Walk out of the old mind and past lifestyle that you had.

Though others remember you, this is about, and between

you and God.

When you yield to God and forgive yourself, this is the beginning of completeness.
