HEARTBEAT

I WRITE AND I WRITE . . .

I write and I write
I invoke the Words and the world succumbs
to the Rule
of the Almighty GOD!

I am, but a servant
a woman consecrated unto GOD
I chose to submit my life
my mind - my heart - my soul
to His ownership and Authority!

I walk the lands
I cry out the cry from the Heart of GOD
I tremble at His Words within me!
I tremble in His PRESENCE!
I am not the Author of the Words, but a vessel
a very broken, apparently useless vessel
but, nonetheless
a vessel in the Potter's Hand

He may do
with me
what He will

He speaks Words to me
and calls me to obey . . .
Will I?

Will I lay it all down
to answer the call?

YES!
For you see
For years I struggled in a world
of inconsistencies
and worry and hatred
and cried out to be loved
to be valued
but
no one came forward

It's such a cold world
A world where we all put ourselves first
and others last
Well . . . I found what I was looking for
I found GOD
not only
GOD
but
LIFE
AND
LOVE
AND
CREATION
AND
REDEMPTION
AND
RESTORATION
when I surrendered
ALL to Him!

I cry out
the Cries of GOD!
I'll take
the beatings!
I'll take
the words spoken back
in blasphemies!
I'll take
the reproach and the ridicule!

For I stand
within the Arms
of the
Almighty GOD
and He is
MORE
than enough
for me!!!

THE BEAT GOES ON...
