Discipline
by Deb Nelson (Deb's bio)
But, I'm having a hard time with discipline.
I do the things I don't want to do,
And don't do the things I want to.
To die to self and pick up my cross,
All I have gained, to count as loss,
Is the hardest thing I'll ever do,
But God's my strength, He'll see me through.
I'm slowly gaining confidence,
With this journey to obedience.
Walking through the desert, I won't groan,
Because I know I'm not walking alone.
I have a Savior who holds my hand,
And leads me to the promised land.
Pressing forward, forgetting the past,
Thank you Lord, I'm free at last!!

| About Deb Nelson: Deb Nelson is a single 41 year old that lives in Minneapolis, MN. She has been writing poetry since the age of 14. Since getting saved 6 years ago, she has learned to be still and know that He is God. In that stillness, the Holy Spirit inspires poetry for her to write, she feels as though this is her ministry. Often times, these poems are like her journal, other times they are showing her gift of encouragement. Please let these words speak to you and bless you. E-mail Deb |
