BORN AGAIN
AND
FREE
My spirit is of God’s; being a mighty possession. I am fulfilled; even to the height that my cup runneth over. I feel God’s presence, that which is the Holy Spirit, growing within.
Now there is a new sense of consciousness; I’ve been endowed by a Newness, and Enlightening; Yes, even an Awakening, which is my even deeper insight, to the unseen glory of what’s yet to be given. For God’s gifts are many and so precious to the Soul.
My eyes yearn to see God’s majestic works, the manifestations of God’s Love for me. I feel delight in my thoughts of God. My heart knows the unspeakable Love, Joy and Peace that flows through my being.
I am overwhelmed in this beauty God’s made possible to sustain. Oh, how I do love You my God! My praise to You shall never cease. You’ve given me a New Spirit, Holy and Free!
My Spirit is in flight, O’Lord, thanks to Thee! Thy Words are my wings__ to float by thy Grace into Eternity.
