Hope oh hope
how much I try to keep you close to me
a special space you have in my life
when all things look bleak
I grab on to you oh hope
where hope is
is where god is
filling it with his light
that glows from the faces of men
only the ones that have hope
hope cleans away despair
filling the mind with positive images
hope oh hope
how at times I am addicted to you
keeping me on my toes
keeping me alive ….
Nothing in this life can be as bad as hellfire , so technically we can get through ANYTHING that gods destiny chooses to throw at us .Each and every mistake we make is technically not a mistake , they make us who we are , we choose to be the way we are like it or not . We can self pity ourselves if we want , but the reality is that is not going to get you anywhere . The realization of having this deeper strength within all of us is amazing , their is a higher self within all of us that screams out to do good and control ourselves . God truly knew best when he created man , gave us capability’s that we often forget we have , or perhaps never realized it is their . Then when it is found you never want to go back to your old ways .
So whenever you go through a bad moment in your life , reflect and ask god what is it that he wants me to learn from this? self pity ? I doubt it very much , when you start seeing the lessons in the test of life , thats when you start to chill out a little more . To the point that you can cope with almost anything that destiny wants to throw at you .
Beautiful poem… It’s something I would keep and read in certain moments.
But all the imagery there makes the mention of God in the middle of it look random. Somehow I don’t see the metaphors related to anything related to God. Is this on purpose?
