The Agreement

I heard a knock at the door
I wasn’t expecting company
So I was going to let whomever
It was just go away

But something inside of me wanted
To know who was knocking at my 
Door at such an early hour
The knock sounded like joy
My heart was smiling within, and 
I began to walk towards the door

I asked “Who is it?”
There was no answer
I peeped out of the doors peephole
And the porch was filled with light

I thought, Oh my goodness what has 
Happened on the block

I opened the door and there stood the Great I Am
“Oh please come in” I said
We talked and before He left 
He asked me to follow Him

My response “I will”

He promised me that anything I asked for in
His name would be given to me
So I asked for understanding, a clean heart
And pure thoughts

Instantly I understood my purpose
My heart was light and my mind
Was renewed

The way He left was amazing
He moved inside of me
Yes

The Great I Am
Resides
Inside
Of
Me
