Kingdom Within
I will not die a paupers fate
Nor walk alone in my steps
For the wealth of all the universe
Has been laid out before me
And the riches of such is incalculable
Who can hold a gem and say “this is mine”?
Does it go with us when we fall?
Have we need of stones in spirit?
Are the coffers of Heaven empty?
Does it add measure to my eternal fate?
Or who can claim their earthly stature
Has purpose beyond the flesh?
For of riches do we eat
Of monuments do they crumble
So too is our pride of nothing in death
Truly it is better to suffer mankind
With comforts and fine robes
Yet none of them are needed where we go
And not one prepares us for what awaits
Indeed they are rags before God’s wonder.
More truly is the wealth of spirit!
No man can take that treasure from you
Nor can the darkness enter into it
For it is the palace of the Most High
Freely open to all who honestly seek it
Beyond rubies and diamonds and gold
Beyond property and prestige
Beyond the respect of family and friends
Beyond the love of man or woman
Is the greatest treasure of all in God
For my Father is a God of all peace
And His Son is the King of all love
Not the punishing angry old man
Nor the hypocrite of mans interpretation
But a Spirit of life that has given you life
Upon awakening to the lesson of love
With the reality of such an experience
Does one see the err of man
That they cannot see for trying
Yet it is plain as day to all who wish to see!
The parable is not of flesh
But of the spirit does it reveal
And the teaching is not of the earth
But to our spirit does it speak
The sin of the world is darkness, not man
For this truth cannot be untold
As wickedness is a choice
So too is goodness and grace
As life is a choice of ours
So too is death a choice presented.
But darkness wishes not for you to know
As the blind cannot see the choice
And fall victim instead to the master
Of that very darkness of lies
That deceived the whole world.
Therefore must there also be light
And one small candle disperses the dark
That candle is not of earth
But of the Spirit that wishes your freedom
And the very same who causes peace.
Even a tiny portion of that spirit
Shatters darkness to flee in fear
For the Father owns them both
Light and dark are His
And His spirit is the power of all things
So He sent our brother that we would know
That we would see and hear
To awaken the sleeping
And sober the drunkard
And bring us the true treasure of life!
I will not die a paupers death
For my Father holds all the keys
Owns all the universal storehouses
And offers grace and wisdom and joy
To all who open their spirit to Life.
Love is the way, and honesty awakens it.
