Seeking Your Love

From my heart of hearts I seek you
In the place where my happiness stays
I  long to hear Your soothing voice
In the place where my love daily plays

For Your love is the most vibrant of my needs
The living essence of my life each day
For I must eat of its sweet tenderness
As In Your grace I now always stay

What blessings Lord you have now allowed
That brings my once lost soul to life
That I may drink with undeserving lips
From Your tender sweet well tonight

And as my day does reach its ending moments
And soft stirring stars bring me to slowly sleep
I open up the richness of my love filled heart
So with my spirit You shall always be.

"I Love You"

Richer art thou beyond
the most priceless of objects,
more abundant are Your works
then they that work for You...

Your love knows
no bounds.

Your spirit holds back nothing
from those who love thee,
and praise Your most holy name.
You are a golden rose to the eye,
feather soft pillows to the touch.

To the lips You are warm sweet honey,
so tasteful and so much a delight
to the buds of my tongue.

To the Lost You are a friend,
who never forsakes one
that earnestly seeks you out.

To the Fatherless You are a Father,
beloved and wonderful in every way,
who knows no bounds in what He does
in His charity that is never ending.

To the lonely, You are a comforter,
A strong sanctuary to the weak,
as Your love is ever increasing
for those longing to find salvation.

And to me You are love, the most real
of loves that human minds who do not
know You dream of possessing, , yet
You freely give this greateat gift...
to all who ask.

Your love is so everlasting,
ever loving as it is poured
daily into my heart, for You
have rewarded my faith in
You,  and have discerned in
my heart that my words are true,
as is the love that lives within
for You is so pure.

So true is my heart as I say
I love You.

All That I Need

I have finally found the peace
that my heart did really need,
I have finally found the quiet place
in which my tired mind could flee.

I have finally found the right path
that will lead to my Fathers home,
I have found the answer to my problems
so now I will never ever be alone.

I have opened up my heart today
to my Creator who is so loving,
And He in return did comfort me
and all my sins He has forgiven.

And I have found the peacefull bliss
that my heart and spirit did so sorely need,
when i returned to my sweet Creator, Jesus
and all that I needed He did give to me.

A Cry For Salvation

My soul is a tormented
one who lacks strength
and integrity, one whose
heart is full of sin.

I am lost Lord in its
wide ranging web, as it
strangles me, as it binds
me, as it suffocates all
that was good within.

It causes me to bathe
in its evilness, and is
a hot iron to my mind
wounding my conscience,
spearing my heart.

Lord rescue me for the
sin is not of my spirit,
but of my flesh that now
imprisons me. The fault
is one that can only be
corrected by your blood
and your grace.

Touch the cancerous sore
Oh Lord, cutting it out,
healing me, making me
whole again that I may live
in your wholesome light, as
it will also live in me
forever.

Faith

As I found myself doubting yesterday
wondering what would become of me,
You came to rescue me in my crisis,
for you did hear my cries and pleas.

Never have You forsaken me dear Lord,
as each day my Daily Bread You did give.
While teaching me silently to wait in prayer,
You were also showing me how to live.

For our lives are never really ours alone,
since in truth they only belong to You.
So we should fully trust never wavering,
always having  faith in what you can do.

And though sometimes so weak I become,
often wondering where my Faith does dwell.
I will always stand firm on your Holy Word,
that true faith in You shall never fail.

For I See

Can you pray to Me and speak honestly
that in your heart you truly love Me?
When you say that you hate your brother
I cannot see how this could be

Can you tell Me that you love Me
when in your heart i alone do see
the hatred that you hold for others
with such a flagrant animosity

For I created you both in my image
hoping one day that you might believe
That each time when you look at him
Its My image you will really see

look long and deep into the looking glass
through which only your eyes can see
and see the dark sinfulness in your heart
that is so very far away from Me...

Glance at the lies, the hatred, the evil
which by your own doing your heart does breed
then tell Me as you view your sinfulness
that your heart is full of love for Me
...for I see.

The Open Door

The open door calls out daily to your heart,
but are your ears receptive enough to hear?
Who is blessed among you to look past self,
who has gazed within without shedding tears

Who has the vision to recognize the key,
the only one that will open up the door?
Who is obedient to my soft spoken voice,
and as they hear it touch their hearts are sure?

For I await you with each day that passes by,
finding only small numbers searching for Me.
Even as the Spirit speaks in truth to their hearts,
many still disregard my Living words and pleas.

For before all that live lies the one true way,
that will allow each to pass through heavens gates.
But all have to open up your minds and hearts,
to receive God's sweetest reward for having faith...

so you can awaken and believe in Me!

Deep Within


One might can take
away the stars from
the night and leave
an empty sky.

One might can take
the sun away causing
its once radiant light
To fade and die.

One might can take
the rain away so our
tears we can no longer
hide.

But one can never take
Your love dear Lord,
from its cherished place
within my heart and mind.

Changes

With the coming of the setting sun,
when it seems that my day is done.
There is always a continuation of time,
where I weigh my days final outcome.

It’s a time to reflect on the days events,
on all the things that made it so complete.
For only in reviewing my many steps,
might I find peace in a tranquil sleep.

I view the kaleidoscope of images,
both good and bad, also in-between,
for only then might I grow the wiser,
so a much better life I may achieve.

And after critiquing this day’s events,
I kneel down by my bed and fervently pray,
that God above might help me to correct,
my many mistakes that were made today.

The Same Way


One sees a rose
enjoying its beauty,
Its color, and its
softness…

and I look at You
that same way.

I want You, but I do
not lust after You,
for I want You so
completely…

If that is possible.

I need You, as I need
water to survive,  for
I need Your spirit to live…

and it’s a true statement.

One may see a diamond,
and inside they desire,
want, need and love it.

In the same way I shall
always embrace Your love,
with my eager heart.

For I desire everything
that You are, for You
make my life complete.

Your Light

Your light shines
upon me,
and bears seed.

And my seedling
blossoms and shines
back to you.

Your love given
freely to me
intermingles with
my love.

Giving birth to spiiritual
teardrops, whose light
happily returns back to
You, the praises of my heart.

My Treasured Place

Each morning I rise up before You
Never taking for granted what I find
Knowing that it is only by Your grace
That the breath inside my lungs is mine

And as I open my eyes wide to You
As rays of happiness alight my face
I am filled with a certain tranquility
That I will never find to be displaced

For the light within shines brighter
Than the radiance of the new day sun
And my heart is lifted by Your grace
Pointing to the place my faith has won

For even though all I see around me
In this world will soon turn to dust
There is only one thought that moves me
To live eternally your love is a must

For only you alone could give to me
A reward that I could never earn
And only by believing in your grace
Was my treasured place in heaven born.

"Trust"

Lean not unto your
own understanding,
for Jesus will find
a way.

Lean not to the world,
for the world is Satan’s,
and  doomed to a
hellish day.

Trust in the Lord Jesus
the Son of God, and
let His spirit enter
into your heart.

And your spirit will surely
live forever, and from your
short life in this world
He will never depart.

A Most Treasured Time


As the sun goes down I anticipate
That special hour, that special time
When I will see your smiling face
As it arrives home so close to mine

For it can only be your sweet smiling face
That allows me to share its inner joy too
With a radiant glow which does begin
Deep in my heart because of you

For so lonely were the moments of my day
When your face I could no longer see
Or hear the laughter of your tender voice
As the times when you are close to me

For such a beautiful time brings its reality
Making my heart to leap with a  fervent joy
When you come home and kiss me with your smile
For it’s the treasure that I most enjoy.
