By Sister Tarpley
I finally decided to be loyal to God, true and dedicated with all my heart. Sin and bad habits I want to break, no more than five, a piece of cake.
I was a good girl by nature, turned bad girl by sin, suffering in the misery of the life that I’m in.
I made a mental list of all my problems to fix; the easy tasks I would save first and the tough for last.
The demons of my past haunt me in temptation; I struggle to fight against the dark life of Satan. I never dreamed this person could be me, where is the good girl that others claim to see?
His peace so clam that my spirit grew strong. The presence of my Lord has been gone too long. Just a little taste of what He wants for me. My first time moment is as happy as it can be.
Let It Shine: The soul of a child has a bright shining light. The light of sweet Jesus is un-tarnished by fright; the soul of a child so pure and innocent. The sins of our world, a child knows not.
The light of sweet Jesus shines through their smile. The warmth of His love brings them joy and laughter. The light shines bright in a spirit of happiness, where love and security is the foundation of home.
The light shines bright in the pit of their soul where nothing is ugly in a picture-perfect world.
A fairy tale life and living a dream is reality come true in the heart of the innocence, where all children live. The soul of a child with love and protection will bloom in the light by God’s delicate perfection.
The light shines bright in God’s beautiful garden where the seed of His children soaks in full rays of sunshine.
The light shines bright with special care that was prepared and delivered straight from God’s golden kingdom of Heaven. A glow of innocence in the eyes of a child can calm the madness in a beast gone wild. –Two Editor’s Choice Awards by author Mary Jane Dixon Metzler, Revised, Copyright ã 2007.
