Self Promotion
Most who are born, sit upon a throne;
there’s simply no mistaking;
their place is destiny, for them, alone;
a throne, of their own making.
All were created for love and devotion;
most become held in pride’s jaws;
many remain dedicated to self promotion;
our egos seek other’s applause.
Purpose in life; is what all tend to seek;
wondering what God meant us to be;
nearly everyone can be considered unique;
perhaps my Master has chosen me.
As I write these words; my thoughts linger;
and my ego demands I step out;
perhaps, I’m the choice of God’s finger;
I’m the one; God’s thinking about.
I am the one, God has given a great gift;
I’d become his pride; his choice;
then the paradigm of reality tended to shift;
and I often failed to hear his voice.
My thoughts lingered of self promotion;
realizing others were greater than me;
suddenly, by experiencing self demotion;
I asked that God give me eyes to see.
I prayed that the Master grant me ears to hear;
surely, it is I, whom God’s talking to;
then, I see all pride, and arrogance disappear;
as I discover; God was talking to you.
