Secrets of the Heart
They are the sins, built of fleshly and carnal wants,
That are controlled by the appetite of the soul.
Whatever one imagines
In the darkness of their heart.
By dreaming thereby forming images
And building within an emotional attachment to and for,
A bond they are becoming
And in time the sin they will commit to complete.
After completing,
The shame, the price, is then hidden
Within the darkness of the heart.
Replacing the images that still tear at the mind within them,
For the appetite of soul the sin will never satisfy,
Until death takes its toll upon the soul.
Reach out and look to Christ and the Cross,
And by God's loving Grace,
Repent and receive by faith,
Salvation and in belief the Spirit within,
And by dying to self cleansing the soul.
Allowing the Spirit within now to control the soul,
By daily prayer and the reading of God's Holy Word,
Seeking God's understanding, knowledge, and wisdom,
To build within to without in Jesus Christ and live in Him.
Daily cleanse the soul of its thoughts
And leave them at the Foot of the Cross.
Lord, guide me and build me God's Way today,
