Arrogant self-sufficiency

An illusion, a mirage, a lie
arrogant self-sufficiency
looking within for all
Claiming too much,
running away, lost
wandering from the center
your holy presence
Needing the Father
the Savior, healing
confession, submission
coming into the center
the loving presence of God.
