Let it rage

Bring me back into You
Let me never forget the feeling
Of the smile of Your blessing on me
Let me never get used to the wonder You stir
Never let me become complacent in Your glory
Stoke the fire of my love
Let it rage

Davidian Heart

Davidian Heart

Nurture in me a Davidian heart
that pursues you with all parts
equally devoted to You whose art
is the fabric of nature.

Make me a man in whom You are pleased
refined by passages of toil and unease
granted by The Blood a full release
from the weight of my despair.

Rain Your blessings upon my soul
forever saved, remade whole
by the grace that lovingly flows
from He who has risen.

In time of glory or times of strife
through all that happens in this life
may all that's in me ever strive
to bring praises to You.

Me: "Hey God, y'know what would be great?"

God: "Well, yes, I do. But why don't you tell me anyway?"

Me: "It'd be great if I could get a new place to live, and a new job,
all by my birthday. Think we can work something out?"

God: "Hmm, I think that's do-able. Anything else in mind?"

Me: "Well, yeah, kinda, but let's just work on these 2 for right now,
'kay?"

God: " 'kay."

And so I find myself here, on my birthday, getting ready to move into a new place, and having just accepted a position with a new employer.

Times are a-changing, but you won't hear me complaining.

Barely a fool

A start -

The pain of my heart
Laid bare in my face
I bring it to you
And ask for your grace

Lead me back home
Away from this fear
Forever, oh Lord,
Keep holding me near

Where you take me from here
I have no clue
For compared to your wisdom
Lord, I am barely a fool

Openness

Openness

For those who have noticed a change in what I've been posting lately
(if you exist), there is a reason behind it. I have decided to fully
commit myself to experiencing all that God has planned for me. I have
always been a spiritual person, but it's really only in the last
couple of years that I have decide to truly explore these things, and
now I find myself throwing everything I am into living a life more
devoted to God. I have received so many blessings, so much love and
guidance and supernatural intercession since making this decision that
it makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever to turn back. God is
real, He is in charge, and now, publically in the most open forum I
know, I make my stand and say, "Everything I have, everything I am,
everything I will be, is Yours God. Take me, break me, heal me, love
me. Open the floodgates of Heaven and rain Your glory on me. Fill me
to overflowing with Your Spirit. Amen."

Isaiah 64:1 "Oh that you would burst from the heavens and come down!
The mountains would quake at your presence!"

1 Corinthians 2:9 "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has
imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him."

Mark 5:36 "Don't be afraid. Just have faith."

Love Poetry

Love Poetry

So much You've done for me
Healed me, raised me up,
Poured out so much grace
And love overwhelming

I turn to what I know best
To try bring thanks,
But You've filled me so full
This love is hard to express

Everything I have
Is because of You
And so everything I am
I bring back to You

To a Love so amazing,
A love so perfect,
A Love so divine.

Your love brings kings to their knees
Your love brings freedom to slaves
Your love unshackles prisoners
This love You've shared with me

How do I possibly say how much,
How perfectly,
How firmly Your love has shaken me?

How do I tell You how honestly,
How deeply,
How fiercely I love You?

Because I do.
