Self-adoration
1 Timothy 6:6
Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth.
Self ... without godliness
Self-satisfaction ... grows into self-adoration
for what you accomplish although nothing is there.
Self-admiration ... will help self-justification
that all you do for self ... is not good for you and me.
It grows and expands indifference
in the landscape that you’re painting
in color tones that are bleak and pale
in your longing to be free.
Later you’ll stretch and frame it
to hang on the wall of your heart’s desire
to brighten up the loneliness
that screams in a silent plea.
