Behind the collar lies blood, dust, marrows and veins
Lies mistakes swept beneath the carpet of our Lord’s mercy and grace
Behind the collar lies sacrifice, selflessness and the urge to make the world a palace for HIS presence
Behind the collar lies tears of regret and past actions that could be reversed if only time had hands
Behind the collar lies bended knees, prayer points stacked on a to-do list like books on a library shelf
Lies false accusations, painted lies that seem like honest truth, blackmails and attacks physical and spiritual
Behind the collar lies the hot seat seeking for perfection which cannot be given
Lies Google eyes searching for flaws to capitalize on
Behind the collar lies days of contemplations about quitting, lies the hunger for care and affection
Lies patience, immediate remorse’s like King David
Behind the collar lies contempt, swallowed insults regardless the weight
Behind the collar lies an awaiting first class heavenly judgment
Lies overdue pregnancies of messages waiting to be delivered to the people
Behind the collar lies flushed revelations due to fear of opposition, persecution and elimination
Lies accusing fingers for somewhat misfortunes and failures
Behind the collar lie false prophecies hanging on the ropes of those in quest for fame not salvation
Behind the collar lies restriction to certain phenomena
Lies temptations and sometimes misinterpretation of the gospel
But of all these,
Behind the honest collar lies the merciful voice of God calling the lost souls to find grace
