This morning’s offering was actually written yesterday morning. The Poetry as Pathway Series will be coming by June. God willing. In the meantime I pray these words encourage you today.
Ascending The Staircase
That I would be so satisfied
in what you’ve given,
there would be no bone
of discontent within me.
That I would be full of the peace and joy
which comes with the presence of God
alone in Christ Jesus.
That I would not be distracted
by the temporal but overflowing
with grace and truth- willingly
sharing from my abundance.
That not a vengeful word
nor vile action would characterize
my ways or days.
That I might know you, now, not
waiting for difficult moments to
call out your name…
Abba!
But, daily may I know you,
grow in grace,
glow with truth,
enjoy your presence
like the springtime flower
fresh with dew
like the morning showers
bringing forth the new.
like a mother hen and her
protective power
like a faithful friend
at late night hour.
You alone, Lord, are my
Strong Tower.
You alone, Lord, are my
Strong Tower.

“That I might know you, now, not
waiting for difficult moments to
call out your name…
Abba!”
So true…

Thank you Dawn for the dawn of your words. They shed light on my path and make the journey easier, especially in the night season. Your words become passion’s flame in my heart. Desire ignites and I see Him, the One whom my soul loves in plain sight.
