BF2013: The Vacant Space...

The realisation of what God knew all along.

Vacant space within a pumping heart filled with His love.

A familiar voice whispering guidance to the willing ear.

 

The relief of what God felt all along.

Chambers beating faster with anticipation of release.

Words written and exuding the truth from a heavenly realm.

 

The response of what God heard all long.

The vacant space discovering the true and rightful occupant.

The blood spilled that in turn filled the pumping heart.

May I Always Remember...

Fill me with a quiet spirit

A calm voice and steady gaze

So I can navigate through

The confusion and the haze

With You as my guide

And my ever steady hand

Never feeling helpless

Nor unable to make a stand

Please grant me the peace

I need to make it through

May I always remember

To rely only on You

I cannot do it alone

That has been well proved

Teach me to wait on you

Till then, I won’t be moved

Dear Lord as You love me

Remind me to do the same

May I always remember

Who died for my shame

I ask this of You now

I need your merciful grace

As I navigate my way

Within Your loving embrace

Life's Lessons...

Some poetry to share, please enjoy,


Never forget where you came from
But just don't stay where you've been

Never be blind to how people see you
They see things you may not have seen

Never rely on mere man to please you
He in incapable of it, so it would seem

Never give up on what warms your heart
It's a noble thing to follow your dream

Life brings along these key lessons
When you least expect, but always know

They seem tough at the time to bear
But they come with love and to help you grow.
