God told me(spoken over funky things part 1 and 2-Larry Ellis and the Black Hammer

God told me

By Nathaniel TerrellPublished 6 days ago 1 min read

I pray to receive abundant wealth

of things that money can’t buy

I have a lot left in the tank

And that is a blessing

I have much to accomplish before I die

We’re all going through something,

You will never reach your breakthrough if you stop

I watch what I consume as I stay on the move

I will look back on how I struggled

When I am hot

I’ve forgiven myself, then I helped myself

I learned to take accountability

when I am in violation

I try not to let my good be evil spoken of

I spent the last decade rebuilding my reputation

I can see where this is going

I’ve accepted what is

Why pretend that it’s something else?

Clout, status and awards are of less importance

than peace, love and good health

Scriptures, positive affirmations, exercise and prayer

Uplift me during seasons I find myself depressed

When I asked for meaning

God told me

You were already given the answers to this test
