BEND or BE BENT

Far beyond the alliteration, there’s a difference
Between the gullible and the humble,
While one believes my mum invented Mercedes Benz
The other’s distance from pride is immeasurable.

The matchlessly Mighty resists the proud.
Who and what can save such a heart?
Should they even cluster into a crowd,
The Mighty versus the minute? Pitiful impact!

The shortcut to the top is named “Humility Road”
In it is an elevator through life’s pressures
To ply this path is worth more than finding gold,
As God grants these pedestrians, honor and treasures.

Beyond the spelling, there’s a difference
Between the one who’s meek and the one who’s weak.
While one has a will which so easily bends,
The other bends easily to the will of the One who made every week.

  1. This is really lovely. I also want to add that, in life' it's either we walk the path of humility or are made to walk the path of humiliation. anyways, this is lovely.
