Poem
HIS GRACE IS RELENTLESS You called me from a million but what did I do Father God? You gave me eyes yet I chose to be blind You gave me ears yet I chose to be deaf You gave me mouth yet I chose to be mute You gave me hands yet I chose to not share You gave me feet yet I chose to turn my back To Your call, I said No I did not stop I run away I opted to disobey You So stubborn, I refused doing only what I want what I like... Left to right roads with trees, cemented, rocky, sandy, so many roads I walk through believing I can without You Father God but I was wrong... terribly wrong! I gain the golds, the diamonds I was happy then for I have lots of friends Day and night, I taste the best meat I drink the finest wine I drive the newest limousine I dress in signature clothes I walk in branded shoes I can sleep even in a bed of bills but why? Why amidst all these I am not happy? I feel lost, there is no peace, no contentment. I am like the empty hole of a doughnut. It is as if I am in a dark tunneled labyrinth. I am calling the name of my mama, my papa the friends whom I shared my golds but what I heard in an echo is my own voice.... I fell and dream. I captain my life's ship so wanting to sail, swim on the ocean blues watched over by sunny skies and if tired rest awhile in silky white sands but along my sail, the breezy air begin to blow the quiet sea begin to wave.. Lots of wind blows they hit my ship I thought only seagulls I will see but again am wrong, waves became tides shaking and disturbing my ride... I woke-up, asking myself... If only I have chosen, responding to Your call Father God where could You have lead be? I start my search, uttering my cries, repenting for my disobedience weeping for Your grace and compassion to kindly rescue me... Always loving, Always faithful, Always merciful, Father God answered me. __________________________________________ Copyright © 2015 11:00 am, September 06, 2015
