~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
like time, his shadow
bends around the past, echoing
grief and pain, then peace
where there had been anguish,
agony silencing the laughter,
the sting of doubt tempting the hope
who believes, just breathes, believes
the moments when yesterday
sat waiting and patient, patiently waiting
in tones of truth and trust,
touched by the fires of grace, peaceful,
reflecting tranquility, abiding inside
the spirt who believes, yes – believes
He is alive! Like the silent wind,
He soothes with His breathless promises,
He inspires with His kindness, His grace,
the quiet of His still, small voice
hushing away the sound of doubt,
stilling the darkness of a past
who yearns to destroy the now,
assuaging the heavy heart,
who dreads tomorrow, all that is to come,
the moments, echoing in the heart
who remembers, the faith who is sincere,
the beautiful that is always near – here
we know the meaning of forever, the brilliance
in a prayer, shadowed by praise, praise so alive
it wears hope on its sleeves – love, its fedora,
faith in the One who made forever – devotion
to JESUS, my reason for knowing that my hope
has a promise, a guarantee of the lasting peace
the feelings that will always be, because He lives –
inside of me AND He lives in eternity, forever
a part of the grace that brings me through
everything – He is like the wind, the seas –
never doubt His reality! He is everywhere!
He is everything! He is the reason I believe
And He is the reason that I can see… beyond
The wind and the sea, into the everlasting peace!
I love Him with every part of me!
