The Freedom to Be


Vasnetsov Alenushka




The Freedom to Be

Free the angel that lies within you,
what do you think it will take?
To chip away what lies fallow
will be part of what's at stake.
Will you create what God intended
or will you hide behind your fear?
Always putting others before you
will keep you from a new frontier ...
One of growth and promise
and all that you can be
Will be buried with you one day
if you don't decide to see ...
The gifts and opportunities
that are given anew each day
For us to create a life of magnitude
takes doing things His way.
