I made the choice to see
beauty in ugly things
when the world around me
was not pretty
i counted it joy when
faced with trials
while never bessotting pity
never becoming a victim
to this abusive relationship to life
i divorced my fears
now im fighting for custody of my purpose
digging deeper within myself
to mine greatness beneath my surface
the fracking of my soul has made me weary
my flesh is weak but my spirit is willing
no I won’t complain
when pain is irrespective of my feelings
for I choose to see beauty
when the sight of life becomes unappealing
As my faith grows in God
the more his word to me is revealing

I am not religious, but I share the thought you explore here... to me it's not god that you find but yourself... but whatever it is, it reads like wisdom...best to you!
