Silhouette Beauty

Silky, savory petals

Like the hand of God,

Delivering peace and lovingkindness

To those who choose to see,

Draping blooms,

Colors extraordinaire,

Like the shawl of His grace,

Covering each blade, unhinged,

Where His compassion, forever fathomless,

Follows us till the end.

Transcendental Truth

When the burgeoning burden

Feels overwhelmingly oppressing,

Stop and take note

Who He is,

His compassion is chivalrous

His sovereignty significant,

His love is luxurious

His goodness generous,

Reframe the burden, breakthrough

By His divine development,

Rest in His consistent care

Abide in His transcendental truth

Clickety Clack

Clickety clack
The sounds of the track
The rhythm of the cars
One by one
Riding the rails of life
With God
Clinging to His lovingkindness
As each stop
Calls my name
My desire
Choosing to stay on-board
But my weakness overcomes
My breath taken away
Undetected
Learning each city
One by one
Roaming the streets
Yet once again
His compassion so grand
Greater than ever imagined
Calling all aboard
Turning from what
Snatched my heart
Escaping once again
Into the bosom of God
His heartbeat comforting
Reminding me of what’s good

Our Disposition

image

I was born with this disposition
A heart filled with flesh
With reason to confess

Causing a need
For a Savior today

To have relationship with Him
My Creator

A heaviness of heart
Knowing I mock God

Taking matters into my own hands
Chasing desires
My heart stubborn to fill

Walking with Him
Unveils the idols
Manifesting my actions

This affliction of disposition
Has purpose

It separates truth
Do I truly love Him?

Will I stand against
The natural
To display my love for Him

If so, I must die to self
To glorify Him

Not loving for what it brings
But loving for who He is

The One Sovereign
Who is Compassion
And always Is

The One called Love
Is Power
And Wisdom
The One called the Great I AM

Imbibe Him

image

In the stillness
Of the morning

I contemplate God

Meditating on His
Character traits

Love
Compassionate
Immutable
Sovereign
Powerful
Timeless
Transcendent of everything

With my God as such
Why then
Do I depend
On thyself?

Orchestrating life
Searching for pleasures
For my peace
Today
In this moment

How do I molt
To depend
Solely
On Him?

Understand my failings
Aware of my independence
Bow humbly at His feet

Accept it’s a process
Moving forward

Growing from awareness
Evolving in spirituality

Imbibe Him
Abide in the One

Life Out of Darkness

image

Give yourself to the hungry
Satisfy the desires of the afflicted
Look outside yourself
To gain your purpose
Keeping thoughts focused
On His love
Having compassion for others
Disregarding your own protection
Exposing what is deep down
To comfort those around
The sun will then rise
Giving life out of darkness
Chasing gloom away
Like the sun midday

He is True

image

Believe in Him
For then the rivers of life will flow in abundance
Surging forth from the depths of your being

Seek His glory for He is True
Those who seek their own glory
Speak from themselves not of Truth

Let your heart follow Him
Be in Awe of who He is
Judge with righteousness
Not by appearance
For you do not plumb the  hearts of men

Be very careful what your heart chooses to do

Warn those with Truth
Do not be found guilty
For them nor for you

In the day of trouble
He will conceal you in His secret place
Defending your life
So you do not have to
Lifting you upon a rock

Loving others as He does
Do justice, love kindness
Walk humbly before them

Be attentive to His whispers
To walk this way
For you do not know the path of righteousness
Creating a life full of meaning

He longs to be gracious to you
And is forever compassionate
Forgiving your tactics
Of protecting yourself

Although He has given you privation and oppression
Through relationships and others
He will no longer hide Himself
Your eyes will then behold Him

You will no longer walk in the futility of your mind
Darkened in your understanding
Excluded from a life with God
Your heart hardened to Him

For you were bought
And redeemed
By His Majesty
The Glorious Lover of your soul
The Creator of Life Eternal
