Sometimes I sit in church and pray for a Word or an Insight
or a Direction
But Nothing
Sometimes I have a little cash, so I go to the store and
look around
Nothing
Sometimes I go to a park and walk around, looking for
inspiration
Nothing
This is most of life
Nothing
Praise God! I have my joys and sorrows, my family, my jobs, my
callings, my rest,
My house, my vehicles, my pets, my garden,
But Nothing satisfies
My body yearns for new experiences, but when they come
Nothing
And that is the way it should be. I know that now. God will
take away, make small, make meaningless, create barriers, put up endings
Because nothing
Nothing but God
He wants me. He is Jealous and Protective. Nothing separates
me from Him, and it is He that does this.
God is All.
“For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor
angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us
from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:38-39

We went a bit differently but used the same verses. I think those are the verses God would have us to remember today :)

DeleteI can't get no satisfaction,
ReplyDeleteor so Mick Jagger said,
but that thinking is distraction
from the living dead,
because the world is full of wonder,
destinations, things to do,
and it seems more crime than blunder
not to see it through
with a kind of childlike verve,
a shout of adolescent glee
that strikes the grey grown-up nerve
of those who are not me,
and though I may be marked to die,
while I'm here, my heart will fly.
Amen! A great poem - and so true - marked for death ... my heart will fly ... Thank you!
