True Love

God knows my heart - my every thought. He knows when I pray, what I say... Understands my ways... even those days... When I don’t have the patience or praise. God knows my heart - my soul and the part... Of me that is hidden behind walls built by fear... Walls of discouragement, disillusion and despair... Walls that protect those feelings that make me vulnerable. God knows my heart - even when I don’t... Know how to put into words... the way that I hurt. He reads between the lines when I write... Understanding those feelings I don’t describe. God knows my heart - the depths of my hopes... He comforts me when I’m lost in disappointment... Gives me encouragement and helps me to accomplish... All those things that I might not believe I’m capable of. God knows my heart - my inner demons and the battles I fight... With sadness, anxiety, doubt and insecurity... all of the reasons... I need second chances - new beginnings and restoration; All the reasons I have for reaching beyond my own weakness’. God knows my heart - even when I don’t believe I’m worthy... He still comforts me when I hurt - heals the wounds and provides... Everything I could have hoped for... more than I could have imagined... Blessings beyond my expectations; Grace that abounds in the worst situations. God knows my heart - welcomes me when my hope has been lost... Helps me to believe in those dreams I might have given up on... Leads me through the wrong choices, mistakes, the desperation... Found in the place where flaws, faults and failures trap my faith. God knows my heart - remembers my moments of enthusiasm and delight... Even when I’ve lost sight, given up on finding the strength to use my insight... Find my way past the penetrating pain - the scars that keep reminding me... I have been through those disheartening days. God knows my heart - and even when I’m wrong... He welcomes me into the warmth of a serenity... That can only be found in the arms of the Love that He gives so freely. God knows my heart ... as He knows yours... And I pray that He blesses you... With Love that is forever and always, Eternally...A part of you. God Bless You!!! This is my entry in “A true love -poem - Poetry Contest”
