From The Soul

TWICE MINE

This has already been published in my book Christian music. But I think that should be here.

I was in my darkest hours in the sunniest dawn.
I was blinded by a four letter word.
And it was not love but lust. 
Lust after many things.

I left your presence thinking it would be better,
But it turned out worse when I could not read your precious love letter.

It took me to another kingdom.
It showed me the darkest things I couldn't see in your light.
It was then I realised, I couldn't see You! Your plan and your purpose for me.

I felt sick! I was being rotten.
It was painful to be someone whom you're not.
I felt I was bound to it!
I WAS LOST! 😢😢( yes this happened)

Then came my Shepherd.
Removed the blindfold.
And now I could see. His grace.

But the Father of lies whom I worshiped earlier came and said to my Elohim that I belonged to him!

My shepherd did not leave me with him.
'Cause he knew that if i was still with that cruel father the next day I would be slaughtered and it would pain a lot.

He paid the price!
My God, My shepherd paid the price.
Then I remembered him telling me once that He was a good shepherd and I was his sheep.
He also told me that a good shepherd lays his life for his sheep.

I didn't realise but now I see
I see the price he paid for me.

I cried!
I thought he was gone. 

But No,
He came back in a kings robe.

I was chained to the enemy's wall.
He saw me
I could see his eyes filled with compassion for me.
I muttered a tearful sorry.

He came running for me!
Held me in my arms!
Caressed me.
Kissed me and kept in telling me I love you from the beginning.

Then I saw light.
He said," Welcome back my daughter.
You are mine now.
I will not let any power separate us.
I have paid the price.
It is over.
Now you are TWICE MINE😊( this overwhelms my soul)
I love you."
That's when I resolved to become a useful vessel to my maker.
