with judgment and condemnation
we build prison walls, bar by bar,
and fight against a warden
of our own imagining
the entrapment of ill thoughts
chain the mind, but
good thoughts can bend bars,
setting the mind free
the captive man clings
fearful of what is beyond, but
the free man walks
through the narrow opening
knowing he’s made for more
trusting perfect love casts out fear
with courage, he steps into Heaven’s light
the kingdom, always near
