Sojourning- Passing Through

I've been deceived.. Clothed lies of deceit, painted imagination, an illusion disguised as imposing reality, conned.. Misled by omissions of guilt, silenced by withering trees, obedient to myself. Trickery moonlighting as a quiet river, masquerading beyond the trees, an illusive force capable of penetrating impermeability. I discovered it prior to it overtaking me, yet willingly relinquishing my authority and power to it with the belief that it's promise was worth the chance.. I didn't know what I had.. I gave away what only belonged to me, set gently aside to wait for preparedness, illuminating the path of destiny, heightening existence to living. I bowed in recognition of something trivial to save face in front of judges and politicians that practiced only on the weak. In hindsight, I've called this trickery by a name, forgetting to analyze its methods, ignoring the evidence, shedding a blind eye to reality.. "Lucifer, satan, the enemy" I called this thing, but all along it was ME.. Refusing to recall that Adam was not deceived, but rather gave his kingdom away, willingly, expecting nothing in return. I simplified an election that was sure, minimized its significance, denying it thrice. Unknown to me, all the while, I should have been passing through.. Making significant nothing, attaching only to necessities -- my God and my soul.. Sojourning in the direction of preordination. Ceasing to be denied, relinquishing all fear of this world, confident only in the confidant. Awaiting the temporal momentous occasion when this earthly kingdom reconciles with what's already finished.. I've begun moving beyond reproach, eager to set up property free from foreclosure, cloud bound and mimicking the experience at present. Above all, misled by nothing, a citizen of The Lord. For I am passing through, sojourning. Waiting on a promise soon to be kept. To my grave I wait, taking the place of Abraham, allowing my vision to be my reality. For I am sojourning-- passing through, Just passing through…
