Line Drawn

Revelation 21:2
And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.

Sand between my toes

Determination in my steps

Headed for the shoreline

Ready to make my stand

Making a line in the sand

Leaving the garbage behind

Choosing renewed life

Accepted by God

Taking back who I am to be

Making a line, to redefine me

God created me

Just as I am

No need to change

He loves me just like this

Making a line, not a wish

Captured by the allure

Believing the lies

Led so far astray

No more listening to the devil

Making a line, putting me on a new level

My strength will rise

My creator confidence will flourish

I will always and forever

Linger in the joy of love

Making a line, giving Satan a shove!

From this moment onward

I will accept me for who I am

I will rejoice in my awkwardness

I will laugh at my silly behavior

Making a line, never again to wavier.

The water will rise

The winds will blow

The line in the sand will be erased

But only by the world, not by God

Making a line, for He has given me the rod.

I have chosen life

Death does not become me

I am free to move about

Free to push onward without pain

Making a line, for it is my gain.

I am beautiful

I am accepted

I am loved

I am who I was created to be

Line drawn.
