"A Prayer"... Video Recording

Video Recordings of Poetry

"I am not just a constant work in progress. I am beautiful now, in the present"

A piece asking for God to rest me in His finished work through love and acceptance of self.



- Jaybe 3 23 14

When simple truths..
become simple.

Simple enough to be digested.
Yum!

Now I've tasted...

Loosening the shackles I attached to myself
Even though I did it,
You hold the keys to my freedom from myself

sd to the D

went from a definition of a lack of sun meaning less than three hours a day in the sunlight
to less than 10 minutes in a sunlight-lit room

Really made to feel like I know nothing

Breeze will pass

The refreshment will come

Jesus, You take away my cancer

Pacify my problems

Clear my mind

Purify my heart

No More Cold Tomorrows

No more cold tomorrows
Our nation's children deserve a chance
To freedom
Not free doom
That truly reigns free

Free.
What is freedom?
Some will never know it...
Until they walk into your classroom
And when they walk out
The reigns are off
Environments
But internalized messages teach them not to become products of the environment

Hope.
Freedom.
Prayer in action.
The teacher battling at the end of the finish line.
Weight upheld
It becomes OURS

Blood
Sweat
Sleep-deprivation
Empty fuel tanks faked, prayed, forced to fill
For you

You're not alone anymore, baby

When you think of you, think of me
Your teacher
Your lover
Your fighter
Sometimes,
Your head's most gentle and gracious voice

Freedom.
Once I became liberated I became free to liberate (thank You, Jesus; lost without You)

You might not feel free out there
But you are free in here
And here
And here
And here

Nobody will take that from you
United, we shall overcome

Love,
Miss B.

God is the only One who has the power to fully transform. To erase completely. To heal fully. Why live for the world, Satan, lies, your fleshly nature, societal norms? That's bondage! I say no. LET'S SAY NO! Choose Life.
Even if I am battling with my flesh, thoughts, and the world each and every day to be more like the image of Him... it is what I was meant for... to be united with Him in the midst of this broken world. We are meant to live in abundance, joy, freedom even in the midst of all the heartbreak... it is available to us through Jesus. Striving. TYJ
