I Awoke Today

I Awoke Today
by NkstOne

I awoke today
with an array of zest
and a chest full of hope

My mind is not a narrow scope
my horizon bright and full of light
I have all that i need to cope
whatever battle lays ahead i know
not but I know the battles that are
behind me now.

I awoke today and though
things have been a fray of
chaos I am still me and God
has given me this day to live!

We all run around looking
for answers clues and solutions
when in truth they all lay before
us. We don't need a sleuth's
intuition to know that it begins
with us

I awoke today and I am
not afraid to face this day
I am not afraid of what lays
ahead and i dont dread
yesterday instead I embrace
all that was all that is and all
that will be

I harbor no ill form. Instead perfection
is not walking a straight line
with rigidness it is realizing
that in this life nothing is ever
going to be what we see.

I awoke today to find that
I am ok with the reality of
my weaknesses, failures,
faults, and imperfections.
Because in these I can grow
and change and become
who I am to be.

I am a treasure seeker not
a victim but a believer
yes even in the most
painful points of my life!
I realize that I have the right
to be a warrior of truth
and of light. A Hezekiah
tearing down the past
and building a new temple
one that is simple one that sheds
truth like the light of the morning
sun.

I awoke today
and found myself smiling again
and found that all this within
is who I am and I am who God
created me to be a life upon
an open sea with opportunities
and sorrows but Victories
and this is my season of change
the moment where all these things
come full into the fold as my sails
are set and my destination clear
I have nothing to hold me back
as I draw near.

It is foolish to say that I wont
face fear, or failure again
but that i know I have come
this far and I will once again
win not by my might for neither
do I make the sun rise or set
but the reality that God speaks
all things to be.. and this alone
makes the journey worth it for
I am going home!
