Wednesday

Just flipping through my journal..

So I wrote poem many months ago, in the earlier part of the year, but I shared it with Christy recently and she suggested that I share with the youth, but I figured I might as well blog it as well.Hopefully this encourages some of you. I Love you all! ♥

How cold my heart has grown towards the things of the Lord.
What once burned with raging flames has now become a flickering ember; as I’ve given my heart to fleeting things I’ve realized that I am guilty of chasing the wind.
How foolish I’ve become feeding my heart/entertaining these fleeting desires with things which will never satisfy,
and drinking from the wells of this world instead of tapping into the river of the spirit
I’ve had enough or never having enough.
Though I’ve given myself to many other gods and allowed myself to grow cold (sitting) in the place of complacency,
still you look at me with eyes of mercy beckoning me to come near.
As I sit in this weak and dry place I am broken before you.
You ravish my heart as you speak tenderly to me.
Gently you knock on the doors of my heart inviting me into deeper intimacy.
You beckon me , but I feel so broken and weak
You beckon me , but I feel my strength is gone
You beckon me, and that burning desire & deep passion I had is being rekindled.
Come In.
We’ve been apart for too long…
