For too long, alligence has been given to man. Believing what he has to say over the Word of God. Doubting even the presence of God. Our own personal desire to be approved of and accepted have over ridden the perfect will of God for our lives. The kind words of a friend are chosen over the obedience of our King. The bitter sting of rejection lingers formost in our hearts. Oh, God, if I follow You, where will you lead me? Don't you understand it is a road of loneliness and fear To believe the path you have chosen for me? Yet, when I have lingered behind, hoping maybe someone would be kind I found only the nashing teeth all around Waiting to devour my heart and soul. Spoiled, my King. You spoiled me. You said come and follow You And I did And you said that families would be torn But I didn't believe that You meant my family. One by one my friends turned from me. I called after them as they walked away. Why, I asked, do you leave? Can you not see that Jesus is the best thing that has happened to me? Yet, not a word to me in return. Maybe in China, of even in Korea, might be true in Africa, or even in India, but not here in liberal USA How can they deny you, How can they shun you and forget you live? Where do they get the accusations they chant and gossip about? Who could believe the things they say? Is this the price, my Lord, I have to pay? To be seen as something and someone who has never crossed my mind? To be labeled and then cast aside? Well, Lord, they've got me all wrong. But it no longer matters to me anymore. It is over for me, this hanging on and hoping. I am turning my back now on my alligence to man And turning now fully into You. You will keep me or You will lose me. You are all that I that I have, and all that I want. Sometimes Your word sounds so outlandish So unreal and full of pipe dreams But this is where I am throwing myself To hope in You. I have determined that it is You I will believe and not the thousands of voices that deny You care and are real And the things You did, You do still. So, Lord, make it or break it I will depend only on You. I am sorry I tried every other way Before believing You alone were the One who could save. And, Lord, as the pain of rejection and judgement almost destroyed me but instead drove me deeper into You Help me now to receive others who are on the path to a greater walk with You. I pledge my alligence to You, my King, my Lord, my Friend |

And I do, too, Lord. For there is no one like You and no One else that I choose to follow but You. You are my Light, my Love, my reason for being. There is nothing in this world that compares to You. Sweet Lord, You have my heart, my love, my all and You have my alligence! Forever His, Joan |
