   1 Thessalonians 5:17
Failure fatigue from this routine
   John 15:17
Abide slip-up & You ditch my scene?
   Psalm 22:2
It's like waiting for Godot on You to intervene
   Acts 17:30
Times of ignorance overlooked now I'm unseen

Hannah, Hezekiah, the persistent widow
Instill in me the prayerful results they have got
Simeon, Gehazi, King Saul at Gilgal
Because I join these ranks when I think God will not

   Zephaniah 3:17
Entreat the Almighty for a Savior in play
   Malachi 1:2
In what way have You loved me today?
   Matthew 23:3
No harm, no foul when mint, dill, & cummin outweigh?
   John 5:39
Get-out-of-jail-free cards don't mold clay

Samson, Absalom, Aaron's golden calf
Unhappiness summons to me my own bag of tricks
Rachabites, Josiah, Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem
Except I'm only inspired by those lives transfixed

   John 20:25
Open my heart to why divine hands felt nails
   2 Corinthians 7:10
Forward never comes as I drown in my fail
   1 John 2:2
Worked-in only to get group rate for the spiritually derailed?
   Mark 11:24
Hungry for my Lord that specific prayers will unveil

Ahaziah, Cain, Judas Iscariot
True You picked me but You also picked them
Widow who is really in need, Priscilla, Mary Magdelene
Eager for life with You as my great priced gem

   Deuteronomy 4:29
Heartbreaking comparison to my pursuit of meth
   Habakkak 2:5
Oblivious as my marriage became Scotland to my MacBeth
   Acts 9:3
Push onto what path by the force of Jesus' vicious death?
   Isaiah 42:5
Exhaling WWJD becomes the gift of God-given breath

Felix,Ahab, Abimelech becomes king
Onward & upward from being trapped in me?
Rufus, Elisha, Onesimus becomes useful
                                       It requires being certain of what I do not see
