The Rebirth

by mzlovehate   Mar 13, 2009


The Rebirth
Life appeared as she let go of her sins.
The slave chain that once bounded her was now
gone. Spiritually, she was born again.
Temptation, greed, and lust were now some-how
no longer her weaknesses; she was free
to live life more abundantly with God,
and experience glory after grief.
She told the devil no deal and chose God
As the dealer of her life. Her problem
had found it’s solution. She no longer
wanted fruits from the forbidden tree limb.
She wanted to be saved: see his wonder;

Constantly, she says, to be free of want:
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

    Olivia,

    This was really well written. I think the woman in this verse is very lucky indeed to be rebron and free of wanting forbidden fruit.
    I am glad I read this:)

    Take care,

    5/5 Ingrid
