Standing

Standing
watching the churning sea,
smelling the salt tang
waiting as the storm clouds gather
I pray.

Gazing at Cypress Point
realizing
the length of time
that old tree has clung
to its rocky perch,
I ask for direction.

Through the dark threat
of fear and doubt,
a beam of light
slices through the dense rain
bringing a full rainbow
arcing across the evening sky,
I wait for reasurrance.

The Lord God,
Most High
Creator of the Universe
loves His child
enough to provide
a solution to my problems - my sinful nature.
God gave His only son -
His most precious love -
as a one time sacrifice
which continues to welcome
anyone who believes in Him.

Standing on the crumbling edge,
I hear my answer
and know
that God was, is and always will be.

No one has the power to wrench me from Him
So now I
stand waiting, watching, praying
for His guidance
protection
merciful grace.
Giving thanks always
Rejoicing in His power and grace.
Hoping in the bright future of living with Him forever.

This is my Father's world

 

Isaiah 40:31

Those who hope (trust, depend on, believe) in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,  they will will walk and not be faint. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your path straight.(Proverbs 3:5-6) Blessed be the name of the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord always.  

Where have you been?

 Have you asked that question of friends, family, classmates, the doctor, the minister, or maybe a complete stranger? BUT have you bothered to ask "Where have you been?" of your relationship with the Most High Triune Lord God?  The Creator of the Universe wants to have a living relationship with you in a one to one time of communication.  In the old song, we are reminded that God is waiting for us to actually speak to him as a person speaks to other humans.  June Deniece William s and Miles C. Austin write:                                     I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses,                                     and the voice I hear falling on my ear,                                 ...
