Promising Humility

Promising Humility

By: Elaina Grace Morgan


Christianity shouldn't be a race towards
Popularity.
Where some of our ministries..
Are looking more like idolatry

And becoming a series of don't s
Where the world just looks at us and says, "I won't,"
Because our don't s..
Are focusing on ourselves to be perfect..
When we're human...imperfect

Which is why Jesus was resurrect..
So He could direct
Our paths that don't lead to foolish pride
And haughty eyes
That will ultimately lead us to fleshy lies

That we can do it on our own.
Did we forget about the One seated on the throne?
We've become plucked from grace 
By sitting in that place of thinking,
Running the race of dreaming
About that popularity

Instead of humility.
So that whole living holy is really based on strategy
Instead of depending 
On the Holy Spirit to do work.
We're pretending to be right in the midst of our dirt.

Pride.
I've said it before.
It's suicide.
We should have one focus:
That's HIM.
And one last thing..
It's interim.
