I CHOOSE TO FILL MY SENSES FEEDING MY HEART

HANGING ON TO THE BEAUTIFUL SCENE OF THE FOREST

AND NOT FOCUSING ON THE INDIVIDUAL TREES THERE

TIME WORRYING ABOUT THINGS I WILL NOT LET HAPPEN

BECAUSE I AM GROWING GARDENS IN MY PRECIOUS SOUL

NOT SPENDING NEEDLESS HOURS EXPECTING THINGS

WILL VERITABLY CHANGE MY THOUGHTS ON ACCEPTING THEM 

IT IS TIME TO PONDER AND CONTEMPLATE ON THE NEW

INSTEAD OF SIMMERING THINGS OF UNIMPORTANCE OF THE OLD

I NOW PRAY ABOUT LOVING FROM MY HEART, SOUL AND MIND

ERASING MY SELF TO REPLACE THE ORIGIN OF MY THOUGHTS

BECOMING INTIMATE WITH THE WORLD AT LARGE WHOLEAHEARTEDLY

AS WE KNOW WHATEVER WE RESIST EXISTS AND CONTINUES TO PERSIST

I NOW REFOCUS ON MY NEW IMAGE AND LET GO OF THE OLD

BREAKING FREE FROM PAST HURTS, HANGUPS AND HABITS

ACTING WITH LOVE, JOY, PEACE, FORBEARANCE, FAITHFULNESS

KINDNESS, GOODNESS, GENTLENESS AND SELF CONTROL

ALLOWS GOD ‘S SPIRIT TO DIRECT AND GUIDE ME IN 2016

AS I BEGIN THIS YEAR BY NOT LETTING PEOPLE LURE ME

INTO THEIR STORMS BUT WILL LURE THEM INTO MY PEACE

IMMERSED IN GOD’S LOVE FOR ALL OF HIS CREATION.

 I LOVE YOU!
