In Good Standing
a 2nd try...the 1st redirected me and didn't go thru...
*this probably could've been named In God Standing or In God, Standing but it's how i sent it off to fam and friends today...we'll see:) peace
Our good standing with God
Isn't dependent
On how much we've loved
Or apparently have not
But is directly related
To our inherent, eternal relationship
As presently His Love
As forever Her Heart
That naturally shares
Not in pursuit of a win, afraid we may not fare
But as the river runs free
Like the ocean is deep
And more
For no points are given
Nor taken away
For good or foul play
Though it will feel as such
If we bottle up our flow
If we lessen our much
By pretending not to love
As if softness can really be tough
Yet regardless, anyway
It is all for play
A play
In which the characters are all kinds of characters
For what's perceived to be better or worse
Playing their parts
Whether it's one of opening up
Or feeling broken down, of breaking a heart
It's still merely an act
A part
Passionately played
Yet the fact always remains
The same
We are that we are
Love
As far as God does pertain
And love loves and plays for the joy of the game
For the cause
Because Cause, Held
Has all its wants
Fulfilled
So it then is loosed to experience to the hilt
Which is what it means to Be
In good standing
