WHEN YOU SPEAK

When You speak,
Hearts find relief,
Minds find understanding,
Problems are solved,
Direction is found,
Wisdom is imparted,
Patience is acquired,
Confirmations rear,
Questions are asked,
Insight deepens,
Warmth flows,
Confidence returns,
Flaws correct,
Destiny aligns,
Joy abounds,
Burdens lift,
Assurance beckons,
Love shows,
End is known,
When you speak, Lord,
Light shines brightly, darkness disperses.

FROM WHERE I AM STANDING

Face in the dirt,
Arms tied backwards,
Gagged,
I look up and I see,
You are still God.
Bed ridden,
Breath deserting me,
Bankrupt,
I look up and I see,
You are still God.
A success,
Fulfilled and content,
A victor,
I look up and I see,
You are still God.
From where I’m standing,
In my highs and lows,
I will look up and see,
For You are unchanging,
You are forever God.
Forever my God.

REQUIRING THE NECESSITY OF YOU

My journey with You is yet to span decades,
But it’s like I’m in special ed and getting double promotions in one breath,
In recent times I’ve learnt that I didn’t wait long enough for You,
Yes I asked,
No, You didn’t speak,
I want Your leading in my tiniest of endeavors,
I realize my mouth said you are chief but heart co-chaired with You,
Now I know better,
Now I’m saying if it’s not You I don’t want it,
Now I’m saying if you don’t go, I won’t follow,
Now I’m saying if you don’t make it happen, it won’t happen,
Now I’m saying if it’s not You, it’s not me,
If I can’t confidently give you all the glory,
Then I won’t testify,
I require the necessity of You in all,
So I know the Holy Spirit has my hand in His.

IN AWE

As the days go by,
I appreciate the workings Your hands more,
There’s beauty in all You’ve made,
Your intelligence astounds me,
Your brilliance has me tongue tied,
Your kindness breaks me,
Your faithfulness shames me,
In the moments that I see through You,
I fight back tears euphoria,
I need to know You,
I beg to understudy You,
I yearn to be mentored by You,
Let me ride on Your back,
As You point out the bottomless things of You,
Teach me with everything and nothing,
I’ll be seeking You until the day I see You.
I love You Lord,
I really do.

AS I WAIT

As I await my miracle,
No time span is stated,
Seemingly an endless wait,
Not knowing how it’ll manifest,
But sure to recognize it,
When I see it,
Assured that the battle is mine,
Yet right now I’m loosing blood fast,
Time in gestation is vague,
Taking of delivery certain,
Yet not specified,
Always at the knick of time,
You show,
Gift wrapped is Your exceedingly, abundantly and above.
Just as I tilt to shame,
Grace pulls me back to Your glory

YOU IN ME

I open my mouth and You speak,
I’m suppressed for You to emerge,
Searching for an answer and You hand it to me,
You teach me great things in my obedience,
I literally feel like me when You visit,
Never gone out on a limb like with the Lamb,
Amazing how You use me and I’m oblivious to it,
The Master Puppeteer,
Administering antibiotics while I don’t know I’m in need,
Healing me in my sleep,
Giving men unto me,
Yet they are clueless who sent them,
You covet me,
Transplanting me to Your courtyard,
Just so You can water me at the required hour,
Sink it into my membrane that I’m precious to You,
That You will give up bliss for even second for me, intrigues me,
Awaken Your ways in me,
Stoke me into purpose,
Cheer when I figure yet another puzzle,
As I break ranks toward You,
Where You are I intend to be,
The Holy of holies!
Feeding off the palms of Jehovah.
