Journey to the throne

Journey to the throne

by Joel Howard

The journey to the throne

is often laced with muck

The way to a throne 

very seldom is "wow"

The path to speaking

is chock-full of silence

Listening must precede

a speaking gift

Cultivate your appetite

with great seasons of fasting

Untie your desires

from the bonds of this age

Look up to heaven

and this world forsake
