Notes About The Poem

TO SEEKING, KNOCKING, ASKING, AND GIVEN  

 

Sometimes things can be so simple,

When you just sit and seek guidance

From the holy cistern of wisdom:-

Trying to please you has been 

A challenging endeavor

For me to accomplish:-

But now, I’m in the awareness

That my focus simply needs to be,

Taking care of you in labours of love:-

“How much greater value,

Is wisdom than gold…and likewise,

Understanding, more valuable than silver?”

No, nothing can match

God’s divine navigation,

And His Son’s footprinting:-

Praise be to the Trinity,

For body and soul healing:

Indeed, just seek, knock, and ask;

And in due time, all needs will be given:-

Thanks, Alison. The deepness is of God and and and those three guiding words, seek, knock, and ask. He's always there to answer and navigate us on the righteous pathway, with His Son, Jesus, footprinting the way to liberating devine wisdom and guidance towards any, and all destinies of labors of love. One, peace and love, M'Lo.
