My Heart's Revelation
For gift of life indeed precious
Packed with love and care, so gracious
My heart exclaims blest gratitude…
Thanking God* for supplies’ magnitude.
Overwhelmed with guilt’s misery
Drowning in bitterness fury
My heart seeks pardon’s certitude…
Expecting peaceful solitude.
Midst pain in toilsome hardship
Distracting my earnest worship
My heart reveals meek attitude…
Gripped with courageous fortitude.
Against lurking discontentment
Of delirious disengagement
My heart needs divine rectitude…
To share kindness-filled beatitude.
When triumphant stewardship zeal
Bears fruits along prayerful seal
My heart shows "reach-out" altitude
Prompted by love’s grand latitude.
*Colossians 3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
