 Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

Live in a spiritual nature,
Begin walking by the Spirit;
You have become a new creature,
Which reflects upon your merit.
 
So then you will never follow,
As far as your corrupt nature;
And the Holy Spirit will know,
If you on a carnal venture.
 
You shall not fulfill the lust,
It is contrary to the Lord;
For it is God you need to trust,
As you live within one accord.
 
Corrupt nature is opposite,
Of your spiritual desire;
And maybe cause you to exit,
By way of the lake of fire.
 
Sometimes you do not as you should,
Not always was it intended;
But weakness of the mind could,
Have the Spirit be offended.
 
If you are led by the Spirit,
Then you are not under the Law;
For He will guide through each merit,
Keeping you from getting a flaw.
 
Works of the flesh are manifest,
Obvious to immoral sin,
Lesbian and gay acts invest,
Corruption of your soul within.
 
Drug use and envy causes strife,
As well as perversion and wrath;
It corrupts and mayhem in life,
Detours you from the righteous path.
 
The fruit of the Spirit is love,
With gentleness and self-control;
That clears your pathway to above,
And purify your moral soul.
