Premium Member My Heart

When we are young, we need to follow something, someone.
Perhaps like me, you have heard the advice, "follow your heart".

Growing up, you too have felt confined, conflicted, and confused.
Who are we to question the good, the best, and the smartest?

So we revered their great wisdom and bowed to their sacred cows.
But after a thorough investigation, I discovered weaknesses of my heart,

Whereupon I took a second look and decided to follow it no more.
And in due time,  I refused such advice and began to LEAD my heart.

My heart has not earned the right nor the reputation to be followed.
My heart is less schooled in the universities of passion, power, and purity.

My heart is prone to deceitfulness and is sometimes proud and secretive.
"Put not your trust in man", says the Scriptures, and am I not also a man?

So I am learning to lean on and trust The Lord, and with God, LEAD my heart.
That is why, like David, I want my Lord to lay me down in green pastures 

beside still waters. I tell you my friend that on several occasions, my heart has failed, leaving me with displeasures and disappointments on the roller 

coaster rides of romance, in multifaceted fields of religion, and in dead end pursuits of success. It's ever true that the heart would prefer to be in 

control. Oh, but to be true to yourself, to be wiser than most, to finish 
this race unworried and rested, LEAD thine heart.

Drenched In Silence

Unbearable thoughts barreling through my head
Decaying in this silent chamber...
Where I desperately cry for help

Words come out useless...I have no capability to yelp
They haven't collapsed in the hands of the unforgiving jail-keeper
This pain grows in my bones...making me weaker
No one bothers to consider me
Circulated by envious glory
That snicker at my carrion body as it drops in dripping failures
Dragged by the sickening thought of living with jailers
As if i had no outlook to life...

I'm still placed in this cold-heartened chamber
Because I'm drenched in silence...
haunted by the deafening atmosphere 
sensing a load of terrorized fear

Shame embraced me, never leaving my presence
Cautious of the hovering thoughts,
transforming itself into my dreadful, panicky past

This hopelessness doesn't seem to matter
In this chamber of deceitfulness

Someday...hopefully Someday...
This silent chamber will shatter 

For now,  I'll abide in this loathsome,
silent chamber 
Until God, My  Savior, will shatter this wretched place
Into smithereens

Your Flirting Kept Me Hurting

I never knew that I could hurt
So bad till I saw you flirt
With a girl behind the bar
Smiling brightly like a star
I was gonna get a drink
After work so I could think
About problems in my life
Till you stabbed with with a knife
Of betrayal I would see
At the door--It couldn't be
You were gonna be at work
At a meeting--what a jerk
Your back turned--You didn't know
How my heart sunk down below
All the sadness at the door
Where I almost hit the floor
From the sight before my eyes
How did I not recognize
The signs I refused to see
That was in your history
My friends warned me about you
But I tried to see it through
Thinking it would not get worse
Hoping I could just reverse
Your bad habits but I guess
You never tried to really bless
Me with a one woman man
I tried to do the best I can
Now I see your old ways
Hasn't changed through out the days
Your deceitfulness has led
You to another woman's bed
I walk away--you didn't notice
Now I'm frozen from the coldness
That I have to live with now
I do not even know how
My poor heart is still beating
When did your love start fleeting
From my heart to other girls
Wrecking my entire world

April 5 Heart for God Bible Meditations Based on 2Samuel 1-3

Key Verse – 2Samuel 2:6  And now the Lord shew kindness and truth unto you: and I also will requite you this kindness, because ye have done this thing.

HEART THAT PRAISES THE LORD FOR HIS KINDNESS

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we seek Him and His presence
Making our faith alive midst miracle-license
Toward doing His command against slothfulness-prevalence
So that we will not sulk in bitterness’ silence.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we rely on Him and on His power
Making our testimony shine midst unrighteousness-tower
Toward living in His ways against evil-sower
So that we will not play with holy pursuits’ blower.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we trust Him and His provision
Making our prayerfulness strong midst discouraging situation
Toward believing His Word against perversion
So that we will not depart from Bible’s instruction.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we obey Him and His precepts
Making our conviction steadfast midst worldliness’ concepts
Toward supporting His work against arrogance that intercepts
So that we will not compromise with atheistic doctrine that an unbeliever accepts.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we rest in Him and in His peacefulness
Making our spirit revived midst soul’s calmness
Toward learning from His Scriptures against ignorance-propped deceitfulness
So that we will not fall into the pit of vain foolishness.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we stay in Him and in His purity
Making our devotion sanctified midst filthiness’ infirmity
Toward abiding in His fellowship’s warmth against coldness-tranquility
So that we will not flirt with alluring iniquity.

Our heart praises the Lord for His kindness…
While we prioritize Him and His kingdom
Making our commitment strong midst prevailing boredom
Toward serving for His glory against selfishness of no real freedom
So that we will not regret in chasing worldly success, devoid of Biblical wisdom.
