A Talk With Him

Outside, a table awaits idle: I join as though it was my companion Pondering about life as if it were water appeasable to the deepest canyon Trees and scattered leaves waving alongside the lake facing the north; sighing Opportunity after opportunity, oh how Ungrateful I am as I whisper to him crying " A work in progress I am Lord, assist as I sprinkle the ground below with my tears Lead me and guide me for I shall follow you through out my years Let your word be used as a sword to fight against my enemy peers Unseal your lips Father for your words of wisdom are therapeutic to my ears" A canvas set aside of unfading colors; a mirror painting of the Lord above My knees gently caress the pavement thanking him for his everlasting love Caterpillars gather around to celebrate and form to butterflies within my chest Thanking the Lord once again, for I know with Faith he will conquer the rest

I can so relate to your words. I too am a work in progress. Always learning and striving to become a better person. What can God do with perfection? It is through our imperfections that His glory is revealed. Beautifully written..

Oh yes, continue to have faith in him all things are possible. I love the last verse. The analogy Caterpillars and Butterflies it's like you had little faith but then came a spiritual break through.
