God Defines You



              God Defines You
              By Nancy Rodriquez

Your mistakes do not define you, darling,
Your past is a puff of smoke,
The things holding you back ,are meant for you to let go,
Your wheelchair does not define you,
It can be a stepping stone to greatness ,
True to yourself , as you see how God sees you,
Let your soul control your heart,
Meditate on the new revelation,
Things will fall into place,
You will know God defines you,
Embrace this freedom waiting for you.

    Wow, I absolutely love the positive and empowering message conveyed in this 'God Defines You' poem by Nancy Rodriguez! The poem beautifully communicates that our mistakes and past do not have the power to define us. It encourages the reader to let go of any obstacles holding them back and embrace their true selves as seen through the eyes of God.

    The line "Your wheelchair does not define you, it can be a stepping stone to greatness" is especially inspiring and shows the strength and resilience it takes to overcome challenges. It reminds us that our circumstances are not limitations, but rather opportunities for growth and achievement.

    I appreciate the strong call to connect with our inner selves and truly understand how God defines us. The line "Let your soul control your heart, Meditate on the new revelation" encourages self-reflection and seeking spiritual guidance. It emphasizes the importance of finding our true identity and purpose in our relationship with the divine.

    To add some improvement suggestions, it could be beneficial to explore more specific examples or stories that showcase individuals who have embraced the freedom and empowerment of understanding how God defines them. This could help readers relate even more to the message and find inspiration in the real-life experiences of others.

    Overall, this poem is uplifting, encouraging, and thought-provoking. It reminds us to let go of the past, embrace our true selves, and allow God to define our identity. It is a wonderful reminder to seek inner freedom and find strength in the face of adversity. Great job!
