Confidential

 Philippians 3:3-4       New King James Version

3 For we are the circumcision, who worship in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, 4 though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I more so:

 

Confidential

 

What is trust? Is it to rely on? Is it to depend on someone?

Or is it to give part of yourself in the hands of someone else?

Is it in things? Is it in folks? Is it based on what was done?

Is it that part taking the heart of me and you, we know well?

 

Is it inside or out of things around us that we take for granted?

It takes our mind in finding out that all that appears so slanted

It pictures self in desires of thought as seeds that were just planted

When they burst to life, not questioning why as does a praying mantis
