Peace Through Persecution

Peace Through Persecution

By: Elaina Grace Morgan


Thank You, God that even in my dreams
You can renew my mind to find..
Forgiveness and peace 
Through persecution..

That attribution..
Goes to You.
Honestly, my flesh wants prosecution.
Then I was reminded..Your love was restitution of my worth..

Now here's a word..
For those who are hurting..
Or even those who are burdening:
God's Word and opinion is the only valid one concerning.

It might not bother you in the beginning,
But don't let the constant jabbing..
Move you,
Instead move forward towards the One who is true.

You see yesterday I might have let it get to me.
I'm human, but I won't listen to my enemies.
Because I realize your enemy..
Will never listen completely.

Don't Turn Back Now

Don't Turn Back Now

By: Elaina Grace Morgan


You think that bump in the road means you should turn back,
That being too tired to fix your flat tire..means you should turn back,
That a wrong turn..because you weren't assertive means you should turn back,
That running out of gas..means you should turn back.

Well that bump was to get your attention
 That you have my affirmation though the road would not be easy.
You see you were starting to get a little lazy
To do the things you were supposed to do
Because you were too busy worrying about how I'd do it through..you.
And maybe that wrong turn was to remind you to yearn for me
To do those things
Instead of you trying to do it yourself,
To refuel you, look to me instead of depending upon yourself.

It's fear that tells you to turn back,
To get you on the beaten path,
A road where most will get lost in the what ifs of their thoughts.
If you don't decide to turn back know that I'll be your guide.
All you have to do is give me control and let go of your pride.
Either way I will love you and you're always welcome to come back.
Just remember all you'd have to do is turn back.
