The Devils Teeth by ShyHeart

- This is not Scripture, however, it is, words, from my heart -

I am the devil, within my self and see his teeth,
Sharp, as a surgeons’ blade slicing, deep inside of me
Not cutting out the sin from me, but challenging,
My Lord’s words, which his bloody teeth, can not stand

Deep, deep as he may sink his teeth, into my soul
The devil will never see, my, blood flow,
For it is not mine, it is as pure as God’s love for me
I shall not sink, beneath the gift, Jesus, gave to me

I have no strength of my own and I shield my soul
From the devil’s teeth, with the words spoken,
Upon a cross, as Jesus said, to a thief, I have no
Home of my own, just my father’s love

As he loves me, and as I fade away, from all this pain
I offer you, what my father, gives to me and he feels your pain
Come with me, for where we go, my brother, there is no pain
The thief, a reflection of me, says, I come with you

Mr. Vann!
Superb poem on "The Devil's Teeth"... And yes, the devil's teeth can be sharp, whenever he tries to destroy what little faith, and love we have left. He tries everything in his power, to demolish your soul....Since, he's jealous of our love for Jesus; the master of divinity! But, I'm relieved and glad you've outsmarted the wits of the enemy, and overpowered him with the Strength of God, which is in you!! SUPERB MR. VANN!

Didn't Mean To Frighten You, Barb
Barb,

Didn't mean to frighten you with bloody teeth. Sometimes, I feel the need to let myself know, life is not all warm romance and we are not each other's toys. So, I will remind myself of what its really all about, then I settle down, back upon my cloud.
Thanks Barb
