I Stand in the Kingdom

Why am I so happy?

Because I stand in the Kingdom.

I don't have the money,

But I stand in the Kingdom.

There is darkness within me,

But I stand in the Kingdom.

I don't have all the answers,

But I stand in the Kingdom.

The beast runs amok in the world,

Still I stand in the Kingdom.

People are starving,

Suffering,

Weeping for the touch of spirit;

And I weep FOR them,

Because, they stand in the Kingdom, just like me,

They just don't know it.

Someone was born today;

I stand in the Kingdom.

Someone died today;

I still stand in the Kingdom.

The people's pain reverberates in me,

And their pain is being used to eat our beautiful planet alive.

If they only knew.

If I could only tell them:

"YOU STAND IN THE KINGDOM!

YOU STAND IN THE KINGDOM!

NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE,

WHERE YOU ARE,

OR HOW YOU ARE,

YOU STAND IN THE KINGDOM!

A KINGDOM WITH NO BORDERS, BOUNDARIES, OR LIMITATIONS;

A KINGDOM IN WHICH NOTHING IS UNTOUCHED:

YOUR HANDS ARE THE KINGDOM.

YOUR EYES ARE THE KINGDOM.

YOUR ORGANS ARE THE KINGDOM.

YOUR EMOTIONS ARE THE KINGDOM.

YOUR THOUGHTS ARE THE KINGDOM.

SO, NOT ONLY DO YOU STAND IN THE KINGDOM,

IT STANDS IN YOU!!!"


I would go on and on,

But nothing and no one can teach them to see this;

To see this foundational truth that

We all stand in the Kingdom of the CREATOR,

So that makes this a paradise.

The Kingdom of the CREATOR stands in us,

And that makes us royalty.
