questions and answers.

couldn't fall asleep so i started writing... hope this encourages :)

Do I need fame? Fortune?
Of Independence, a bigger portion?
What will bring happiness, what satisfies?
What if what I've believed all along is just lies?
Is what I have not enough?
Do I need more clothes, more stuff?
If I were thinner, would the world love me' more?
Maybe if I wore more clothes from that store?
Is my popularity lacking?
My personality slacking?
Do relationships save?
From a life that's depraved?
Does love really last?
Or does this perfectness pass?
If worldly satisfaction I seek,
Will lasting happiness I meet?
If follow the rebellious path,
Would I really face wrath?
Would acceptance come, if I were more like her or him?
Is it really all tht bad, my 'wretched' sin?

As these questions sneak in my mind,
I grope for the TRUTH, Gods word I find
He opposes the proud, and gives grace to the humble (James 4:6)
No longer over this doubt do I stumble
It says joy is in The Lord, not the world and it's pleasures
In Gods place is splendor, His everlasting treasures (1st chron 16:25-27)
The only truth is in Gods word (psalm 119:160)
The WORLD tells the lies, all the crap tht I heard
Beauty doesn't last, and bodily forms pass,
But fearing the Lord is what's to be grasped (proverbs 31:30)
God says to dress with humility (1st Peter 5:5)
Fashion is temporary I now see
Popularity is vain,
All lust leaves is pain
Ur life will be incomplete, full if holes
Cus only GOD satisfies the longing soul (psalms 107:9)
As for my sins they're so bad, God can't even look
Yet he died a painful death, and all of them He took
Anger, jealousy, pridefulness, and lying
Thank God He didn't come to save the healthy, but the sick and dying (mark 2:17)
So my questions are answered and I rest in Gods word
Because all else is false, my only hope is the Lord

Becky
