My Journey...(Original Poetry)

My Journey

The lies they told
Foolishly, I believed
Giving my heart to the leaders
Yes, I wore my heart on my sleeve.
I was looking for the truth
Unknowingly, I was pushed farther away
Thinking my behavior would give him praise.
They twisted his words,
Trying their hardest to lead me astray
Now the curse has been lifted
And their works are plain as day
My eyes are open
Yes, he has allowed me to see.
The way I was in the past
Is not what He wants from me
His laws still stand,
Why’d one ever think they’d leave?
After he opened my eyes, His Word
began really speaking to me
It was not automatic, no
It did not happen overnight.
It took time and diligence
(I wanted to make sure that I was right)
Now, I have clearer understanding
 In the words that I read
The meaning is undeniable, it does not confuse me.
With this newness of mind
My transformation is complete
What I once was before is now obsolete.
I’ve discovered who I truly am
I’ve found my way in life
Every day I strive to be better

And a reflection of his light.
