Victory Now
(The Goal is Won)
A seed can be given and hope is a seed;
When turmoil seems all around us
It’s hope that we need.
Hope is of the future and when turmoil is seen,
Know, “this too shall pass”, and hear what hope means.
As a seed springs forth it sprouts into time
And grows to maturing – Faith looks to harvesttime.
Truth never changes, this is the seed matured.
Now is the harvest, watering joyfully endured.
The Kingdom is at hand and that means, “HERE NOW”
The time of fruition can be enjoyed, and how???
With faith in what Jesus shared,
Time, and its’ veil of confusion, bared.
His words of “I do this for you, now don’t be scared.
The Kingdom for you is now prepared”.
Step thru time, I hold the door open, the party’s in here
Within our minds, where we are one… let this become clear.
God enjoys the thot in His mind, and lets it play,
We nourish our thots, so they will stay….
And if they appear as “not love”…you know, they betray,
And joy will be gone, ‘cause I let my mind stray
From the Peace that we are, ‘cause God wills that way.
So claim the KINGS’ Heritage that is ours today.
I’m a child of The King, and that’s Perfect Creator
I throw this away when I think about later.
TRUTH is always about now, the ETERNAL NOW that never changes
Look past the changing, it only estranges.
It’s my choice what I nourish, and with Love as the goal,
The seed has grown abundantly into what’s whole.
TRUTH and TRUTH’S CREATION remain one
This is it’s joy, and joy is fun.
So if I see turmoil, let me run…
To what never changes, THE GOAL IS WON.
