TRUTH OF PRIDE

I think high of myself
And yet, unknowingly
Accept myself not at all
In this pride-wall of fear, I hide
Until it crumbles and I fall

Fear of failure, fear of rejection
fear of worthlessness......
If only I would stop and face it
God would replace it...with bliss

Standing tall though feeling small
Unaware of the mask I share
Standing tall through it all
Looking deep I do not dare

Only myself do I deny
The crying baby down inside
Masking pain of nothingness
Hiding behind self-righteousness

Lord, please reveal my secrets
That I've held in the dark
Shed your loving light and truth
Renew my mind and heal my heart

With the new revelations;help me to embrace
I'll repent....You'll forgive
Then I'll accept your grace

What filters in is LOVE again
Acceptance, joy, feeling free
What filters in is my True Friend
..and you can be you and I...me

Fear of man or Fear of God?
Which one will it be?
One entraps with fear and lies
The other sets us free

GOD'S WORD SAYS "Such Love has no fear because perfect Love expels fear.
If we are afraid it is for fear of judgement and this shows that His Love has not
been perfected in us." 1John 4:18
'For the proud will be humbled, but the humbled will be honored."Luke 18:14
(NLT)
