Deadline
by Tim Pickl Pressures mount and stress of life screams; Situations appear in prayers and in dreams; Emotions roller coaster spinning in my mind: When will peace return? I don't have time! Opposing forces rise up and attack, attack; And in my own power I try to fight back; Negative thoughts surge like a tornado: Why is this happening? I just don't know! My attitude snaps at my family and friends; Condescension consumes me in selfishness; I have so much to do and a deadline to meet: Go away! Why do little things annoy me? After the big rush is over and the meaningless deadline is met-- I see the victims of my attitude and I am filled with regret, and repent. +++ For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled. 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (King James Version) --bro. tim pickl Saturday June 26, 2010 A.D. + + + Tim Pickl's Testimony: http://www.pickl.com/timandmarsha/timtestimony.htm FaithWriters Profile: http://www.faithwriters.com/member-profile.php?id=22603 FaithReaders Featured Author: http://www.faithreaders.com/featured-author-details.php?id=44 Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
