Dead...
The nightmare from hell
A ****** at heart
The shadow that fell...
Dark...
The ash against the snow
The black sheep of the family tree
What Labels do I not know?...
Doomed...
The fault line in the ground
The corner of the darkest hall
Where no life is found...
Time has passed and your Labels mean nothing to me now!!!
For where sin abounds... Grace all the more abounds!!!
Redeemed...
Temple of the Holy Ghost
A branch of the True vine!
Holy and Blameless before God and the Heavenly Host...
Righteous...
Seated in the heavenly places with Christ
God’s workmanship
Partaker of His promise, through the ****** price...
Raised...
From my death grappling grave of sin
Was once dark but now filled with light
One of the many unworthy who were chosen
It's been so recently those Labels have been eating me alive...
But Lord you always remind me who I am in Christ!
The Labels make me crumble up... have I failed to be a guide?
Your word and church, they bring me strength to survive!...
**Shut Up Labels! For I have Been Revived!

May make this into a song someday Lord willing, I know everyone has been given a Label, and as you can see from reading the poem I have been given quiet a few and several more. It doesn't matter what and who the world says I am, it what God says I am and as long I am doing what the Lord is telling me to do and I am obeying him, I should NOT fear these Labels...
I do hope and pray someday I'll be given a new label... or seen differently...for now... all I can do is pray and wait
