Be Holy, Intentionally, 1 Peter 1:15-16 – Poem devotional – Dayanah Ahmawanah ðŸ’•

1 Peter 1:15-16
But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

You Father in heaven have called me
And I have accepted that call humbly
And I answer that call zealously,
As I
Intentionally
cleave to thee
Placing my trust
My Hope in thee
Praising You
For your compassion and mercy
I have no choice
But to follow You only
And Be holy
Like You are Holy
So intentionally , I will be
Holy
Like Your Son
Is Holy
With my manner of speech
With the way that I teach
With the ones that I love
With my enemies
I will be different
I wont have a desire of vengeance
But be quick to forgiveness
And kill them with my kindness
Because I am full of Your goodness
With my thoughts
That I seek to discipline
By keeping them on You above
And Your righteous kingdom in heaven
For I know how easy it is
For those thoughts that are intrusive
To penetrate the mind
If we arent building our fortress high
With Your precepts Most High
So I will be a builder and do my part
As You restore the center or my temple
My contrite heart,
And I will be a server
No matter where I stand ,
Spiritually, physically , mentally
Giving whatever I can,
To build on earth the kingdom of heaven
And I will be a writer
With the words Your inspire
First on my heart You pour it
Then with my pen I write it,
For this purpose
This peace
Following Your laws and commandments
So cheerfully
This is what makes me holy
It sets me apart
From this dark world I see
Because I am intentional
To of Your light stay full
Placing my trust
My Hope in thee
Praising You
For your compassion and mercy
I have no choice
But to follow You only
And Be holy
Like You are Holy
So intentionally, will I be
Holy Like Your Son
Is Holy
Faithfully
💕
