We can become our own worst enemy


We can become our own worst enemy
Save me from myself is my prayer and plea
For there is deception in the world’s way
A high price the selfish do truly pay
In all things I do chose that which is good
Aligned with heaven is where I have stood
The world around me lives for vain deceit
Allowing flattering words to defeat

They allow their minds on evil to dwell
Deception has cast upon them a spell
Yet only in the Divine is there hope
Strength that gives living faith so I can cope
Praise the Eternal for every blessing
Trust in heaven all my days professing


Psalm 36:2   “For he flattereth himself in his own eyes,
until his iniquity be found to be hateful.”
