Notes About The Poem

This poem is surrendering my ALL to the Lord. Complete surrender! 

When I Surrender

When I surrender my all to the Lord
I give the whole that is inside of me
My thoughts are no longer just mine
Secrets shared daily, just  Him and I
 
All of my body, heart, mind and soul
Turned over to Him a hundred percent
To the one who created me like Him
In His image; He loved me before birth
 
I bow on my knees and cry Holy to Him
Trying to completely give more each day
My body is His temple I must keep clean
Walking closer to the Lord each day
 
Every inch I lay at His feet, giving all joy
Nothing too small or too tall to surrender
I give Him my fears as He wipes my tears
Lingering with Jesus in my prayers daily
 
When I pick up the bible, He speaks to me
He tells me about eternity and His promises
Once again, each day, I surrender my all
Jesus will never let me fall from His grace

I am with my true heart say that you are a lovely son of God which is clear from your glittering star like words of your true heart, so you have said nicely with your true and holy heart that "Jesus will never let me fall from His grace". You have won perhaps, i feel so. My lovely lovely friend, i love you always,bl

When we commune we are in tune. Arctic winter can feel like June. His peace is steeped deep in our souls. Then his grace fills up our holes. Peace. :)
