"My Form Created" Double Tervillazelle-The Difference

 The Difference

I belonging this world not the same

Involving myself pleasures being here

Wondering to what my being became

When to other's ways I play their game

My real being did slowly disappear

I belonging this world not the same

In trying my best to here gain fame

To this making my ways endear

Wondering to what my being became

As I look in the mirror seeing change

Realizing to this hard to smile

Because what I do see now strange

Have not seen the real me in awhile

For to this world my being belong

To this difference my true self exile

Now to my being I fail myself

I belonging to this world not the same

When to my true ways I have shelf

Wondering to what my being became

When to this world not the same to oneself

One must ask to what be the difference

Then try to this world to distance thyself

In being honest and true to yourself

Realizing it's okay as indifference

When to this world not the same to oneself

One must leave this world to itself

When to the Lord one makes preference

And try to this world to distance thyself

His directives to be here not of here

Being the difference belonging to Him

To this one's soul does indeed hear

For to be here one's being is slim

Where temporal this difference at bay

As being of this world one's soul be dim

Now a being shines with Him display

When to this world not the same to oneself

Different here this way without delay

And try to this world to distance thyself

Thoughts:  It's easy to get caught up in the ways of the world; thus, belonging to the world. Yes, we humans are habitual creatures, but we also possess a fabulous mind where we can make determined decisions. Determining rather we want to be in the world or of the world. In belonging to the Lord, He directs us to be in the world, not of the world (1 John 2:15). Belonging to Him, not the world, this be the difference.
