HER TWO FACES...



She was reminded the other day 
  of how she could be..
She can be lovable,  kind, disarming,
   but not always sweet..

Her faith is strong, her spirit alive,
   as she lifts voice to pray..
She cries for the homeless, the poor,
   the forgotten..
She prays for them each day..

Though her heart is tender, she
   can open her mouth and the words 
will not be tender or discrete.
Her words are at times are harsh,
    ruthless, unkind and far what 
 she believes and certainly not sweet !

Like Eve, she has two faces..
One face caring, forgiving and tender..
 The other loud, careless, 
  unforgiving, abrasive..

She cries in shame after much of 
 the damage she causes is done..
Her anger she thought at the moment was
  justified briefly, as the words lingered,
 were  definitely harmful to some..

Everyday she is reminded she must discard
 the unrighteousness of these two faces..
Let the love,  light and goodness shine..
 Allow the Spirit of God , the forgiven, all 
replaced within , because of Jesus..

 She is reminded of the scripture ...

 " Let the words of my heart and the mediation 
   Of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, oh
    Lord, my strength and my redeemer"..
Psalms 19:14
