She has put herself on the auctioning block.
She sells off, not
just her body,
but small pieces of emotion,
for bits of devotion
from men with tarnished tokens
of love’s similarity.

Thank God for His love which frees us from the prison of deception and error.
ReplyDeletePretty intense!
ReplyDeleteBondage usually is.
ReplyDeleteDid you go through a rebellious stage of any kind, where you were hearing the word or being witnesses to and just scoffed or ignored it? If so, how do you describe your mindset at that time? How does one penetrate that wall when you are witnessing to someone?
ReplyDeletePLENTY of times. My mindset at that time was "I don't need to be told what to do! I'll just figure it out on my own." Prayer is the most powerful way I know to penetrate walls. In prayer you will get wisdom and the ability to witness with grace and love.
