Bondage

A lot of us walk around every day and hold our own selves in bondage.

Everything’s so heavy cause we’ve got so much on us.

Chest so tight and we can barely breathe.

Eyes so watery, we can barely see.

"Officer, can you take these cuffs off that I’ve put on me?"

Convincing ourselves we aren’t drowning but the water is waist deep.

Floating somewhere between trusting God and being unable to fully take the leap.

Life hasn’t been easy.

The rollercoaster of twists and turns; leaves us queasy.

It gets so exhausting.

I know.

Believe me.

The only constant in life is change.

Some of us have been waiting so long, we just don’t know when or if it’ll ever transpire.

So much brings us down, gratefully God takes us higher.

It’s just crazy how bad things happen to really good people.

The devil preys on us and this world is so evil.


I’m just waiting for the day when we’re all happy and equal.

If this is a novel, we all deserve a better sequel.

You’re never traveling on this road alone.


Everybody is working to turn their house into a home.

You were given this life because God knew you could handle it.

Everything happens for a reason and that includes you and me.

 It may not be what you expected but you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.

Better is coming.

It may not mean much but it has to count for something.

What will it cost you to believe?

Absolutely nothing.
