A poem for my Lord: Sometimes I wonder, can I ever make it through the day without you, my Lord? Why do I indulge in vanities when my focus comes back to your word. Why do I complain when you satisfy my every need. Why do I mumble to myself when I have to just confess your presence intimidates me as a man but by my heart I cant help but grab on to you in my pains. Lord, you are my greatest satisfaction. You are the cream of the crop. Your melodies drag me out of my hell and you put me in orderly fashion and make my paths straight. I confess I am wretched without you. A speck, a dust, a breath. You enlighten me in every way. I confess my love to you in public because youve shown be grace before many. You favor me greatly, I am beyond blessed. I cant see the news, I dont have a care about the mundane. My soul draws near to you, you give me water from the river. You enlarge my heart with your grace, that I may bring to mind all the times youve saved me. You remind me, I can never fall so far, that I cant come back to you. My tears have ceased yet my joys are crying with you through your pains. I am blessed beyond comprehension. My heart melts before you. My fruit you eat of freely that I might be reminded to be diligent in my doings. You dont care of my shape or form you approve of my every step unless you chasten me in my wrongdoings. I am quick to repent, I have nothing to hide. My ways youve seen through thick & thin. You consume my sorrows daily, replace them with song and dancing. You distract me from my realities, you take me to a world in the spirit that only few you chose can walk by. You take my worries,replace them with joys of rain and prosperity. I can rest in your posterity. Lay on your holy grounds. You satisfy my hunger. You quench my thirst. Youre my friend in my bests and my friend in my worsts. I cant be thankful enough. Youve healed my soul from within me. Youve cleansed me from the dirtiest parts to the my most inner parts. You invade my heart when I least expect it. You desire my attention every bit of my day. You promise beyond desires but you never give me more than I can bear. You have all the control. Youve robbed me of my curse. You wrote me in your heart. You remember me always. You never give me the short end of the stick. You never give me the left overs. I have nothing to offer you but my gratitude. My money isnt good enough to sacrifice to show your blessing towards me. You saved my household. You saved my family. You saved my purity. You put me on high places, but the work is always done by you. My mouth faints in prayer, I cant catch up in my flesh, so youve given a gift for praying even in my sleep. Only I can sense it. Your armies secure me and my fellows. You remove me from all evil and temptations. A perfect man I am not, but with you I could care less what I look like, because I only feel honor when you embrace me. In my highs and lows youve silenced my stupidity and gave me peace as a bribe to not feel my true issues. Why do you hold on so much? Why I am I loved by you so much? Sometimes I want to be alone, but you know me too well. I enjoy your friendship when Im dealing with something all by myself. I could make a thousand songs of your great deeds towards me, but it wouldnt satisfy compared to the countless face to face moments we will actually have in an eternity beyond my understanding. How would we socialize? How would I dare come to your house unannounced? I am vile to the core. Wretched to the bone, my own mouth sinks within me. I cant sleep without your blessing. I cant cry without your permission. I cant move without your approval. I would go through all this all over again if I knew you were the prize for eternity. What value is eternal life to me if I cant share with anyone, or with you, or even with the angels. Whats a prize to a man if he is to be alone for all eternity. You have to recognize, Im not in it for anything else than for you. Jesus is the prize. A buddy for life to tell all my mistakes, yet you would still smile and not call me a fake or anything other than what honorable thing you call me to be. You make me feel alive when I was once dead. You make my food taste better when I can bring to mind how great is my God and how delightful and friendly is my friend. You remove my conspiracy. You impress me with your soul. You remind me youre human like us all. You tell all, you hide nothing, your words are sweeter than lemon and honey. Yet they strengthen me like milk and iron. You are more than I can ever hope for, you are more than I could dream. You are my greatest honor. And the greatest reward for eternity is just between having a relationship between you and me.
