Seek guidance ...

Proverbs 1:5 

(Let the wise also hear and gain instruction,
and let the discerning acquire guidance!)

 

How to recognize the thoughts that hinder progress?

How to flush desires away ... when they interfere?

Is that food for thought ... that through meditation?

Understanding of helplessness ... joins me in this sphere

 

Intentions of the heart ... hunger for righteousness

Wanting to please Jesus ... with every fiber known

Having His priorities ... interwoven in my being

For the acceptance of the gift ... instilled when reborn

 

Being saved is one thing ... invasion of the Holy Spirit

Opposing everything ... my flesh is living for

Flesh fights with every fiber ... until its final breath

The One foreign to it ... and despising more and more
