Please Reconsider!

Please Reconsider!

You say you feel my pain...
  when I cry all my tears.
You say you’re scared of nothing
  yet you’re halted by your fears.

You say you know me well,
  so completely through and through.
I can hardly tell
  since what I do is new.

You call me ever so bitter,
  frozen deep into the core.
You claim that I can’t make it
  by taking this path I know!

Please reconsider how you scrutinize
  the way I choose to go.
Why do you suspiciously wonder
  when I told you long before?

My life is a promise
  made prior to my birth.
I must dedicate my soul
  to approach my life’s true worth.

In everything I do and say,
  I do so with this certain will.
I await God's instructions,
  it’s His plans I must fulfill.

What He has designed for me
  will be forever mine.
What I worry constantly is
  will I grasp it in time?

No wasted energy
  do I have to spend
  on devilish worries
  of a faithless friend.

We all have our own connection
  to the very same Source.
It is no fault of mine
  that you tune out His voice.

Life is a journey
  that you first must begin…
Proceed with something small
  until you reach the end.

Whoever told you life was easy
  was telling the devil’s lie.
It is the journey to know God
  the second we are born
  until the one we die!

"Please Reconsider " is a poem
from Role Reversal:  Turn Pain Into Power

Hello All!
It's been a minute since I've blogged. I hope you all haven't missed me too much. I haven't been goofing off. I've been working on my book and freelancing for a client. I will try to blog as often as possible even though my hands are quite full right now.
I thank you all for your support and feedback.
Much Love,
Candie

About "Please Reconsider!"

     I often write about naysayers and haters. I do so because it is such a persistent and negative energy in the world. What's worse is that that energy spreads fast because it is not always easy to identify.
     Sometimes that naysaying energy is put upon us by those we love and those who love us. In fear of our chosen path, our loved ones may point out the obstacles they foresee. It's not that they don't believe in us it's more so that because they love us, they want to protect us.
     The thing is, they can not see what God has shown us in regards to our path. Because you yourself don't always understand it, we may have a hard time explaining what God has shown us. How do we battle that naysayer energy that somehow is the result of love? How do we tell our people to back up off our dreams without making them want to back up off us completely?
    Me? I just put my best foot forward every day. I am on a God-given journey and I walk by faith. For those in my life who still don't understand my dire need to complete my journey despite what rocky roads may lay lie ahead, I suggest that they “Please Reconsider”.
