Me 2


Romans 12:3 

3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

 

Me2

 

All in one ... but One for all?

 

How many “me’s” are in me?

Is there a way to discover?

Who of “me” is writing now

or by ”His Blood” is covered?

 

When I feel good … who is ”me”

and when I feel bad ... the other?

When I dream am I outside of me

and asleep does “me” not bother?

 

Is “me” that searches spiritual things

or “me” that seeks ways of ease?

Which “me” loves to help the poor

which “me “is so hard to please?

 

Legion is he … a man I met?

He was possessed with demons.

Who was he deep inside?

Did he know that “me” was screaming?

 

When Christ landed on the shore of death

why did He in that graveyard?

He was where the Father willed.

He always pleased God’s heart.

 

Legion was healed by Christ.

The possessors then were gone.

Was the real “him” left right then

for a moment then “undone”?

 

Christ filled him with Himself

up to the brim.

But after that what did Legion do

to contain all of Him within?

 

Did the world get the best of him

like it seems in my life?

Or did Legion do what Christ proposed

and give up all strife?
