Why am I convicted on the holy grounds <br />But in the flesh I feel nothing. <br />Why don't I stand strong when I am on the battlefield <br />But when I'm in the holy place I am like a rock standing firm in the ground. <br /> <br />Isn't it more importanat to be firm when I am with you, <br />But isn't it more important to be firm when I am on hte battlefield fighting for you. <br /> <br />I may seem firm in the human eye but I am like mesh in the eye of the spirt. <br />The immortals stand and gaze at me telling me I'm such a holy christian <br />I know it's a lie because my soul screams, <br />'HELP ME! ' <br /> <br />If I'm such a good christian, why do I not stand firm on the battlefield? <br />Why do I let the flesh attack me. <br />Shouldn't I give that sin to you. <br /> <br />Even though I stumble, I know I'm safe. I know you'll catch me <br />Because you are God Almighty!<br /><br />Lexie Mulkey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/standing-firm-3/
