PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

     I wandered, & wondered when I would be home,
  how long being lost would last, how far could I roam
      before I discovered the path that would be
        able to let my wings spread, finally~

    In searching, I lost sight of moments in time
    where love was waiting for me, hoping to find
       receptivity, where only walls had been~
   ~I got stuck, not in the past, but in between~

    I knew there was hope, & answers yet to come,
    I sensed the direction, yet continued to run,
    He didn't force my eyes to open to His ways,
just gently kept calling me, through every new phase~

       So misunderstood, so alone in my pain,
  surrounded by His rainbows, only seeing the rain,
   defenses were mounted, yet I struggled to see
     the way to remove them, & finally be free~

    I wandered the wide road, got lost in myself,
   believed in a new age, had His Word on a shelf,
  until, finally, the deception gently came undone,
    & I saw there was nothing new under the sun~

  In the time He had foreordained, I heard Him call,
      I suddenly had no more reason to stall,
    surrendered & broken, willing to be changed
  then everything, forever, was suddenly rearranged~

    It wasn't my own efforts to change my life,
to be delivered from rebellion, heartache, & strife,
   it wasn't worldly wisdom that opened my eyes,
He just showed me Himself, then removed my disguise~

      Now I am changing, from glory to glory
     as He leads me on, writing my life story,
   & when I remember the way my heart used to be
   I long for everyone to let Him set them free!

So, wherever you are now in your search for love
      I pray you'll continue looking above,
He said, "When you search for Me with all your heart
I'll reveal myself to you!" & the truth, He'll impart~

  Talk to Him, He'll listen, He waits for your time
    to come to the throne of grace boldly, & find
  His blood He shed willingly, out of His love for you,
       ready to do what nothing else can do~
