Neglected Soul

Song of Solomon 1:6 - "Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me. My mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards, but mine own vineyard have I not kept."

Why would you look upone me. I am rugged because of my existence. I do not know to be pampered, I only know to be what I need to be for others.

The Master Artist responds, "My dear child, did you not know that I put you in the vineyard to begin to show you where you were and how far you needed to come. I allowed others to treat you badly, so you would understand the tenderness of love.

But what must I do with the years that have been taken from me in bitterness, when my brothers taunted me and my life had no purpose?

Understand, my love, my soul, you are all you are suppose to be, and the years that have been stolen from you will be given to you back in double blessing. You could not know the double blessing without the pain.

Negletect Soul

Battered about with life cares

bending to the demans of others,

unaware of hr own neglected soul.

Do not look upon her

there is nothing to see

just someone,

just another face.

Oh neglected soul,

you have a saviour...

Jesus is His name.

He has been drawing you

from the very first day.

Awakened by a seed of faith

dropped into a needy heart,

watered by heaven's dew,

beginning life anew.

No longer a neglected soul

she will know her worth

accepted in the Beloved

the King has called her today.
