What's Wrong...

What's Wrong With Wanting? No, Really Needing Something Pure?

 

Free! from anything of a different, inferior, or contaminating kind.

Clear and true, absolute.

Untainted, only, solely.

Understand the depth of something being pure.

I am one who can admit, that I validated filth.

As if something vile, but accepted by the world could be washed on the outside and made clean.

But inside holding the gutter of lows.

What makes me, because I can only speak for myself; personally

Makes me run away from pure?

Is it the acceptance I wanted from the world then.

Doing whats it, What's hot

Because It Felt So Good basking in the praise of other people boasting about me for my wrong doings. The attention.

Wow! the feeling of being known. Was it just that?

No! of course not

But Time isn't long enough to address them all.

What happened to it? Where was pure lost? Or did I ever obtain it? For example...

Have you ever wondered? How far you could get in a relationship w/o fornicating, talking dirty, living dirty. How far could it get you. I for one always wondered how it would feel, for God to give me someone to love w/o all that mess. Getting to know that other person in the Lord Peacefully. Really finding time to figure it out. Because if  half that mess wasn't in our way, alot of us wouldnt've took the time to do the things were not suppose to be doing. Being mixed up in the wrong things and situations. Know who you are! And push hard! to live that way. How far you could go!! The bliss revealed. Knowing and loving the Lord w/o the needed attention of the world. I for one am so tired! Its wearing me out! I hate it! This world! Really that mind set it sets you in w/o God in your mind. I wanted cars, jewelry, money, a reputation, a name, a legacy, a statue with my name on it so I can leave a memory of me! behind, so everyone can see and wonder who I am and who I was. You know what?

Only God can eliminate that thought process through Heavy prayer. I Hate that thought process; its not pure!

Pure is when the Word of God being left in you; a person you only meet 1 time and 1 time only and you never see that person again, but you know you said something not just anything, but a glimpse, you provided a long hard stare in someones mind that God is there. Powerful and important. To not only you, but that person has made up there mind that they better find out why God should be important to them. Killing the importance of you. And understanding your not , You Anymore!      

But God is in you. Know! Pure which God is. So you are, Pure.

So Whats wrong with wanting, no really needing something pure?
