"I Am A Child Of God" by Tracy Alen Sito

WHO AM I IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD?

I AM NO ONE.

♦IT LOOKS DOWN ON ME, BECAUSE I LOOK UP.

AND THE ONE I LOOK UP TO, IT CANNOT SEE, BECAUSE IT IS HIDDEN FROM THEM.

♦IT UNDER ESTIMATES THE KIND OF POWER I HAVE

BECAUSE IT DOESNT RECOGNIZE WHERE I GOT IT FROM.

♦FOR THE WORLD, TO SEE IS TO BELIEVE.

HOWEVER, FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME,

THOUGH I DO NOT SEE, I STILL BELIEVE, BECAUSE I HAVE FAITH.

♦ALL THINGS IN IT, WITH A GOOD PRICE ARE CONSIDERED PRECIOUS.

ALL GOOD THINGS THAT I CLAIM TO HAVE,

IT CONSIDERS OF NO VALUE BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO PRICE TAG.

♦THEIR MAIN GOAL IS TO BE THE GREATEST IN IT.

MY MAIN GOAL IS TO BE THE LEAST IN IT.

♦I LOOK STRANGE IN ITS EYES BECAUSE I DONT GO WITH ITS FLOW.

I AM PITIFUL IN ITS THOUGHTS BECAUSE I AM CONTENT EVEN WHEN I HAVE NOTHING.

♦IT LOVES WHEN IT IS LOVED, AND IT HATES WHEN IT IS HATED.

BUT I HAVE LEARNED TO LOVE WHETHER THAT LOVE RETURNS TO ME OR NOT.

♦IT ENTRUSTS ITS FUTURE TO ITSELF.

I DONT THINK ABOUT MY FUTURE, I ALREADY HAVE ONE.

♦IT REJOICES WHEN IT CAUSES HURT, BUT IT IS ENRAGED WHEN IT GETS HURT.

 I REJOICE WHENEVER THE WORLD HURTS ME KNOWING I GOT HURT FOR A WORTHY CAUSE.

♦I MAY BE DESPISED, LAUGHED AT, SPIT ON, AND EVEN PUT TO DEATH

BECAUSE I AM NOT LIKE IT.

♦NEVERTHELESS, I DONT CARE.

BECAUSE WHO I AM AND WHAT I AM IS DETERMINED BY WHO I LIVE FOR

WHOM THIS WORLD WILL NEVER SEE, UNDERSTAND, AND ACCEPT.

WHO AM I?

I AM A CHILD OF GOD.
