Trapped

I read the signs

As I waded into enemy territory

Bottom line,

I knew what I was heading into

With one step

one mis-step

I tripped the trap

the jaws that snapped

held me fast

The beast is currently roaming free

while I am trapped within his lock

The irony is not lost on me

And only Jesus has

the missing key

But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior... [Titus 3:4-6]
