People of God
We have been robbed
We are the VICTIM
…of embezzlement
Press charges!
Against one that I used to call my friend
Life turned out
Mind set a blaze
She whispered in my ears and stole my joy
Shouted across the room and stole my time
Laid beside me and stole my commitment
Worked with me and stole my vision
Kissed me and stole my heart –
breaking it over and over again
Gambled with my life and stole peace and prosperity
And to top it off her presence injected me with timidity.
captive. a junkie of the sorts. left overdosed.
fear
Fear
FEAR
a harlot
a whore
a petty thief
…became my friend
…then took my down from within
Fear is a master thief
A capped crusader
An avenger of the dark
He entices you with envy
He tranced you with spite
He gallops all around your success all high
then pummels you in a fight
If we are not careful
we soon call him friend
Inviting him to dinner
Introducing him to family and friends
Don’t let Fear embezzle from your life
Let Jesus redeem you
from Fears evil plans
while there’s still time to freely let him in
You are not a victim!
